    @virginmedia You offer the same package to new customers at nearly £20 cheaper so it isn't the lowest price possible, is it? Spoke 18 months ago about signal. Was told it would be looked at if I agreed to renew. Once renewed was told WiFi is not guaranteed so tough.

  • mickeywhizz Michael Taylor (@mickeywhizz) reported from Newburn, England

    @markcatchlove @virginmedia Pleased it’s not just me Mark. It really pee’s me off the contempt with which they treat their existing, loyal customers, some of whom have remained loyal since the days when they were Telewest. #newcustomersonly

  • liamsholder91 liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia sorry for the late reply I smashed my phone I phoned customer service and I'm still waiting for someone to phone me iv had NO TV for about 15 days now

  • TheFraserPorter Fraser Porter (@TheFraserPorter) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia twice in 2 months that my hub 5 has completely gone down with a flashing red light and won’t work, I’ve had to book a technician for it both times. Costs too much for this to keep happening!

  • PaulCraig24 Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia my Mam has been trying to sort her mobile out today. As she can’t remember her password or security answer, she has been unable to access her account to cancel it. Can you let me know what she can do?

  • seldomseenkid16 Georgina McGowan (@seldomseenkid16) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia can you help with my phone services not currently working

  • CraigSmartUN Craig Smart 💙 (@CraigSmartUN) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia Hi spoke to Customer services was told IT would get email sent out to me. 3 days later still no email to verify my email address so I can log into my online account.

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Hello @BarclaysUK, phoned you for ten successive days and it’s an hour long queue, been into branch, you can’t sort the issue, tried chat via the app, you don’t talk mortgages on the app. You are beginning to reach peak Virgin Media for incompetence, I’m sorry, this is appalling.

  • liamsholder91 liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newburn, England

  • CraigSmartUN Craig Smart 💙 (@CraigSmartUN) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia trying to set up online account ready for install on Wednesday, verification email expired. Clicking send new email but no email is being sent so can’t verify email. Please help!

  • NETheatreGuide NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Ryton, England

    @virginmedia The signal struggles to get to each room in the house. My son complains as he games. No chance of streaming music in the bathroom. It isn't a big house either. The deal I'm on currently was negotiated when I spoke to disconnection team rather than intro offer.

  • PaulCraig24 Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately not. The issue is she doesn’t receive any communication from Virgin apart from a monthly text with the link to her account. As she has no password etc she can’t access it

  • Rainbowztwit Sarah (@Rainbowztwit) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    .@virginmedia Broadband down - phone line states because of 'improvements'- not expected back until 3pm. Why was there no notice so I could arrange to work from alternate location? How do I get warning in future?

  • liamsholder91 liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newburn, England

    @virginmedia won't even let me over the automated service

  • NETheatreGuide NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Time for the @virginmedia renewal. They want to hike the price. We want a new reliable WiFi box which they promised but didn't deliver last time. To be honest @BT is looking attractive as they may improve the signal around the house.

    @virginmedia tryna play GTA with the troops and my WiFi has went down is there problems right now?

  • Teyamade Teyamade This. 🎤 (@Teyamade) reported

    Virgin Media are weird. You can have good credit but they'll turn you down for a £4/m mobile sim contract for reasons they couldn't tell you. My credit is in the green. I'll pay for the whole year now but your stupid algorithm is floored.

    @Dodgyclare @btsportwwe Sounds like a Sky problem.... my Virgin media box recorded it with the channel change.
