    Can anyone at @virginmedia virgin media tell me why the internet drops out every time it rains? The technicians only want to diagnose a fault on the line to the house and they never seem to be out when it's also raining. It's very frustrating.

    @virginmedia #virginmedia #virginmediadown Is there a problem chaps? Poor poor connection speed in South Tyneside! 😳

  • ruthemmj Ruth Bennett (@ruthemmj) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Other than checking the plugs and the cable connections - your light indication service doesn’t work.. it made me run and run and run diagnostics and engineers in 3/4 days isn’t good enough - still didn’t repost any fault even saying the internet wasn’t working.. RUBBISH

  • Toonhero Carlos Spicyweiner (@Toonhero) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia I have spent 25 mins on the phone trying to change my package, I was being transferred to an account specialist and you have hung up on me, I suggest you now contact me before I cancel my entire package. Customer service is shocking.

  • VictoriaBarry82 Vicki barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia is there an issue with connection in Sunderland, we’ve had nothing but problems for the last 24 hours!!

  • VictoriaBarry82 Vicki barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia can someone help with getting a broadband booster

  • GraemeBell_NUFC Graeme Bell (@GraemeBell_NUFC) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to an understanding and reasonable human please? Or do they not exist in your company? I’ve had nothing but trouble from day one and the customer service has been woeful

  • HBP_Surgery_CHS Ben Banerjee (@HBP_Surgery_CHS) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Never ceases to amaze how poor @virginmedia is. Successive errors including appalling dropping out broadband. Now transferring to BT today and they stop internet last night despite specifically saying I wanted no gap in service. Glad to leave after 23 years.

  • AndySTmr Andy Turner (@AndySTmr) reported

    @virginmedia doing the fantastic customer services job again. Account ended today and all services stopped yet I receive a bill for the period 17 March to 16th April which is more than usual as apparently I’ve changed the package. Now I get to sit on hold for at least an hour

  • EvanMcFarlane Evan (@EvanMcFarlane) reported

    Never really had any issues with Virgin Media, but the internet’s been borderline unusable at peak times for months now. Tried everything to try sort it. Internet is a scam.

  • scottdennis12 Scott (@scottdennis12) reported

    @leondas @virginmedia Tried to speak to them today to log a complaint they ended up not logging a complaint and fobbed me off to someone else I was promised someone would get back to me however I have now been waiting 6 hours on WhatsApp and still no contact.
