  • 13thDukeofWmbm Clive Conway (@13thDukeofWmbm) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    Anyone having broadband connection issues with @virginmedia in Middlesbrough? Nightmare trying to get through to em.

  • ItsBowmanTV Bowman (@ItsBowmanTV) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    55 quid a month and virgin media constantly going down. Glad I’m out of contract 🙃🙃

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • juneh49 June Hurst 🐈🦊🌷🌻🌾 (@juneh49) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia I cannot get help cancelling a package I did not want. I tried online & phone. 3 hrs to speak to someone. Transferred once. Second transfer cut off. Nobody phoned me back.

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

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

  • HHannahJohnsonn Hannah🌼 (@HHannahJohnsonn) reported from Hartlepool, England

    not even surprised #virginmedia WiFi is down fully, literally cuts out every day

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

    @virginmedia All sorted, no longer a customer.

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    @maureenbo @TheOnlyElChazmo @virginmedia Since changing my router I have been getting what I pay for, its brilliant now, can't believe they endure so much pain because of a crap router that they should have changed years ago

  • swangell Stephen Angell (@swangell) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia several recent calls to my landline informing me that my broadband would be disconnected within 24 hours, press 1 etc.. I put the phone down as this is surely a scam?

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @VodafoneUK why is the WiFi calling so terrible when connected to @virginmedia broadband?

  • juneh49 June Hurst 🐈🦊🌷🌻🌾 (@juneh49) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    3 hours trying to cancel a sports package I do not want @virginmedia and I then get cut off. I’m not a happy customer

  • DaveEdg91934892 Dave Edgar (@DaveEdg91934892) reported

    @virginmedia @83_soph This is David - Sophie responded to my orig tweet. I have now sent my complaint through to VM Complaints, Sunderland. Hopefully something positive will come of it. Can’t believe the mis-sell by your sales team. Not earth shattering but very annoying.

  • Mohamad1920213 Luckypennny (@Mohamad1920213) reported

    @virginmedia I was not offered any resolution by anyone. Not even the manager offered a solution

  • supernooms Emma Reilly (@supernooms) reported

    @virginmedia I've just bought had fitted virgin broadband for business. I got a 4g dongle for backups but there are no instructions on how to use/connect in event of internet going down. Are there any online instructions?

  • markadoi84 Mark Hughes (@markadoi84) reported

    @virginmedia any chance you can help with this, please? I don't have time to wait an hour on the phone, so hoping someone here can assist.

  • StokieRichie Richard Leighton (@StokieRichie) reported

    @virginmedia After all the time spent dealing with the issue I took the Agents (both!) advice and paid more for the Sky Movies so that it wouldn't affect my existing Contract (made crystal clear!) and they advised me to call back to give 30 days notice to cancel the Sky Movies I am now told

  • DrumsAndNerding David West (@DrumsAndNerding) reported

    @virginmedia - another triumph! I couldn't solve my slow broadband using your website and now you've sent me a survey to fill out about my experience - but the survey link isn't loading. Magical!

  • chris_doyle86 Chris Doyle (@chris_doyle86) reported

    @virginmedia we were told that our self installation box was being sent today, cancelled our previous package so they didn't overlap. You text ON THE DAY to say there's an issue with suppliers. Can you not reactivate the previous boxes? Over an hour to speak to someone is a joke.

  • cousins_pete Pete Cousins (@cousins_pete) reported

    @eric_hawkins9 I keep getting calls from 'virgin media' on my mobile. It's odd that they can never tell me the phone number on the account. I always try account verification with cold calls.

  • Mohamad1920213 Luckypennny (@Mohamad1920213) reported

    @virginmedia The solution I was told that the issue need to be sorted out first but this has been going out since 2018.

  • IanTranter79 Ian Tranter (@IanTranter79) reported

    @virginmedia Im after a wifi extender for my daughters room as signal is poor, tried ringing you on numerous occasions and live chat, but no answer on either please help
