  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🌲🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia hi, any help on a non responsive remote to vbox? It is flashing red when I press buttons bit nothing happening on box. Only started happening tonight

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No errors, never is, yet everyday at least once my net goes off, normally for 10 minutes sometimes for up to 4 or 5 hours, cant remember last time I made it 24 hours with no down time

  • gaussey 𝗠𝙞𝖼𝗵𝖺𝙚𝗅 𓆤 (@gaussey) reported from Redcar, England

    @FoolRare @virginmedia Thanks, service status is down and wondered if it was just my hub dying.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Let me ask, so you know how long the line is to speak to technical support? Have you tried using the text service and online chat? I have all at the same time and after 8 days I still hadn't spoke with anyone, you are unable to support your services

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @NathHawkeswood @virginmedia Twitter cant help, phoning cant speak to anyone, text service in an endless loop, chat service online is also an endless loop I need to speak with line faults and they aren't even an option on the automated phone service so I'm really screwed

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia seriously, a price increase?! Only renewed my contract 2 months ago and for more than I've ever paid! Of course, no customer service available either. Ridiculous!

  • JamesPoole10 James Poole (@JamesPoole10) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia appalling in Redcar. No service all afternoon on Broadband & TV. I've lost 2 hours work. Phoned the call centre. Minimum recompense if any by the sounds of it.

  • stephbreckon Stephanie Breckon (@stephbreckon) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia there appears to be a problem with my wifi, I wouldn’t normally care but I’m working from home and have an online class at 3pm

  • 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.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    Not a lover of call centres and thought that they didn't really offer any customer service of any real value, then you have the likes of @virginmedia and @Hermesparcels that seem to want to upset customers. That said, credit to @NespressoUK, was blown away with your service

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia I rang after the email and they assured me they have applied a discount and would stay the same price for my contract. I agreed a fix price and if that's not what I got then I have been lied too, which is a miss sale and the ombudsman will be contacted, again.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia can you advise the next time I will be able to receive your broadband for a period of 24 hours or more without it going down? #StayConnected #IfYouCan

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

    @virginmedia All sorted, no longer a customer.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Yes I'm aware, they have just hung up on me again after an hour without even a real person, 6 times now and thats why I was asking for @richardbranson number, your sales guys don't seem to have any issues calling me though #JustSaying

  • rachsclarke rachel clarke (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia absolute pathetic excuse of a mobile phone network, constantly missing important phone calls and being disconnected. Nowhere near as reliable as primary network EE. Not even worth the free unlimited sim card you’ve given me.

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🌲Santa Doom🌲🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    . @NOWTV @nowtvhelp any idea on how to stop the intermittent blue screen when playing back any on demand video or TV channels? Got an older now TV smart box. It's wired connection into a 300mbps virgin media hub so no issues.on playback speed.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @AhDeluxe @virginmedia Was it the 10 minute off or the 4/5 hour cut? Never anything inbetween in my experience

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @KEESH1984 @virginmedia 8 days of that, we not heard fro you for a while youbstill need to speak to someone? OK let's start the whole thing again Chuffing useless, what they offer is not customer service its hope it fixes itself before anyone notices or leaves

  • BradleyStaunch Bradley Staunch (@BradleyStaunch) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Virgin media internet is good, EVERY SINGLE other thing about them is ******* shite. Never understand the ***** on the phone takes, 3 hours to get through, website always down, make a payment page been broke for 5 years. ******* ****

  • gaussey 𝗠𝙞𝖼𝗵𝖺𝙚𝗅 𓆤 (@gaussey) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No, everything is fine thanks, the outage only lasted two hours.

  • johnnydadude The Life Accountant (@johnnydadude) reported

    @virginmedia @timashton1979 I will have to look at going over to BT and cancelling contract due to breach of contract by virgin as can not trust due to the lies and random made up call charges! I might be happy to receive free mini box with no monthly charge as a bit of goodwill to remain customer

  • Paul_Wingrove Paul Wingrove (@Paul_Wingrove) reported

    @virginmedia so...not only no service but your service status checker down for the *second* time today. Anyone care to explain?

  • ljward46 Ljward46 (@ljward46) reported

    @giaxclarke @virginmedia Totally agree.. rubbish costumer service👎

  • Beardynoise big daddy christmas (@Beardynoise) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah I'm not putting my postcode on Beyoncé's Internet. If I did tell you what my postcode is you'd then tell me there are no reported outages but you'll look into it and send something to the back-end to fix the problem.

  • Markavfc1979 mark bravington (@Markavfc1979) reported

    @MitchM77 @virginmedia @MitchM77 dial 150 and and for customer relations if they ask why say it about your contract and a deal you was offered but customer relations can do alot better deals mate

  • galleryantiques Gallery Antiques, Vintage and Collectables (@galleryantiques) reported

    @virginmedia I had to borough neighbours phone to call virgin CS again, as I did not get the promised call back. Still no service/signal after receiving replacement sim card, now have a replacement phone sent to me, hopefully it will be here tomorrow.

  • johnnydadude The Life Accountant (@johnnydadude) reported

    @virginmedia @timashton1979 Swapna said charge was for call to speaking clock!? I'm very concerned as if one spurious call can be made and billed to me then others can!? There are no phones or sockets in the house!? He closed the complaint himself without it being resolved!?

  • giaxclarke Gia Clarke ♡ (@giaxclarke) reported

    @virginmedia Is it going to achieve anything? I’ve just spent 45 mins of my life on hold to have the call dropped on me. Every time I try get in touch something like this happens it’s really bad customer service…

  • CRASHANDBURN12 Gavin Weir (@CRASHANDBURN12) reported

    @virginmedia Any chance of using a decent courier service to deliver your routers , as @YodelOnline has it in there depot and are unable to deliver it as they are useless !

  • giaxclarke Gia Clarke ♡ (@giaxclarke) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks that would be great, I do want to keep my package and not cancel but pls for the sanity of your customers can you make a better contact system 🤞🏼🤞🏼
