  • Lauras95 Lauraaaa (@Lauras95) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia It's always 47.37 when it should be a straight £47. We do everything online and never get paper stuff to do with our package or billing

  • Janthebestmam Janice (@Janthebestmam) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia done it but no help thats why fed up thought you would advise somewhere different to contact

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

    @markcatchlove @virginmedia Very much doubt it Mark; like I say- they have the market sewn up so can treat their existing customers with contempt.

  • Russell_Kain Russell Kain (@Russell_Kain) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia can you help me with a broadband technical issue. I have 200Mb, power cycle the router daily and still by the end of the day end up with super slow speeds. Less than 1Mb tonight. Thanks.

  • TheToon1892 ⚽NUFC 1892⚽ (@TheToon1892) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Done all that, there were no issues prior to upgrading. My speed is a quarter of what it was.

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

    @virginmedia just had a very frustrating afternoon with your call centre trying to dump our landline which we never use. After 13 years as a customer it is particularly galling to then see on the comparison sites how much more you value new customers.

  • hellsbells610 Hells Bells 🐧 (@hellsbells610) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia are there issues in the Gateshead area. Broadband keeps on going down. Tried turning hub off/on, but not helping.

  • ll370 IanBurns (@ll370) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia 2 weeks back with you and my signal keeps dropping almost every single day, best internet provider. I think I have grounds to terminate my contract. What a joke

  • Russell_Kain Russell Kain (@Russell_Kain) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Hey its been like this for a while. I have the power socket scheduled to restart every night, but it isn't helping. Ive also reset to factory settings numerous times as well as try different wireless channels. WiFi is only part of the problem though as the issue exists on cable

    I'm going to SMASH this ******* @virginmedia tivo box. IT DOES NOT WORK. I'm paying almost £80/mo (excluding BB and phone) for a ******* service I cant use and they, virgin media keep ignoring me. Oh, you dont like me swearing? Then if you ******* helped, I wouldnt have to swear

  • SueSueHeck9 🦋Nicola Warburton🦋 (@SueSueHeck9) reported

    @megg_paul @virginmedia Thanks for that David. This has been going on for too long now, and someone has to take ownership of dealing with the problem it until its resolved. It's just not acceptable to be asked to wait any longer given that we're passed the '7 working days' point.

  • iamcoxhead Thomas Coxhead (@iamcoxhead) reported

    @virginmedia I WAS TOLD IT WAS AN ISSUE IN THE AREA ON THE PHONE. No it doesn’t, what I was given starts with C-020.

  • Willo3186 Darren Willis (@Willo3186) reported

    @virginmedia That doesn’t really help thou does it?

  • MissFairhurst 💙Northern Do Gooder (@MissFairhurst) reported

    @virginmedia This is not true. In the last few weeks, the WiFi has kept dropping out and download speeds have been less than 10% of normal, especially Mon - Fri. I am in the NW, trying to work from home. Please fix this!

  • CodeFirstAndy Andy Harding (@CodeFirstAndy) reported

    @virginmedia having trouble with missing TV channels and boxes connecting to each other. Have tried to get through for help via your website and phone lines but it's a mess.

  • R79177213 never ask for help coz without permission off god (@R79177213) reported

    @HollyBranson @virginmedia I need your support

  • Nadderrs Nadine (@Nadderrs) reported

    @virginmedia awful service! I am now on day 2 without any internet! I have called to try and sort the problem to simply be told the engineers are working on the issue & it should be solved by March 9! Do you wish to tell my employer that also. Absolute joke! #poorcustomerservice

  • KanesTheName Kane Brough (@KanesTheName) reported
