  • classicm Mike Moody (@classicm) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia All my tv, broadband and phone services are down. Nobody available from Virgin to help. Done all the usual checks and still off.

  • Nicola_Johnston Nic Johnston 🇺🇦🌻 (@Nicola_Johnston) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia come on. You just have a good idea from the outage earlier today how long this is going to take. I’m trying to WFH with Covid. @bt_uk how long does it take to switch providers?

  • pearceswan David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia If there is any tools that you can suggest I use to solve my issue it will be greatly appreciated, I don’t mean to mean in your position but I just would like to know exactly what you can do SHAW at the end of the day I’m assuming you’re going to tell me to go to technical help

  • pearceswan David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

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

    @virginmedia down in Newcastle? How am I meant to work?

  • gaznolan Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia Ridiculous service from your team in Manilla. Both Joy & Brian telling me I wasn't able to pass security because I couldn't tell them my next bill date as the package/contract is ended even after telling them my normal date and all other DP information

  • maxinetennet74 Maxine Tennet (@maxinetennet74) reported from Walker Gate, England

    What will it take for @virginmedia to actually sort out an account after a bereavement??? 3 months later, endless calls and empty promises. Continued anxiety and distress for an elderly woman is not the bereavement service I’d expect. Appalling.

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

    Wakey wakey @virginmedia shoddy service not to update a LOT of the UK on broadband problems

  • Andymorris74 Andrew Morris💙 (@Andymorris74) reported from Mitford, England

    @virginmedia Your whole system is down! No access to telephone No access to broadband No access to website No access to status checker What’s going on???

  • pearceswan David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I know my line is spoofed, when an incoming call from a foreign country is giving out I’m not wrong number as I’m being spoofed I am technically aware of this I used to provide support for a very large telecommunications company

  • longmolloy peepo (@longmolloy) reported

    @virginmedia It worked today but the lights were flashing green the whole day. So I turned it off and back on and now I have a green base light and flashing green arrows... and it’s not working 😫

  • Backbone666 Backbone666 :~# M̵͔͝i̸̪͒c̸̡͐h̶̺͂ȃ̴̟ë̴͕́l̶̲͆ 🥄😷 (@Backbone666) reported

    @IthicaHawk @virginmedia might be time to get @Ofcom involved because you are going around in circles with unhelpful 1st line support when this is clearly a greater network issue.

  • lynsey09156041 lynsey (@lynsey09156041) reported

    @Virgin Virgin media I don’t want there phone number I have spoken to them 20 plus times promised call backs that never happen

  • jaffiescake jess!! ✿ misses jjk (@jaffiescake) reported

  • Gamertag3609 Gamertag3609 (@Gamertag3609) reported

    @phoenixdebola @virginmedia Believe me with the amount of issues I've had with them you do eventually get someone useful, but then they fail to follow up once a manager is meant to be dealing with it. Theyve closed so many complaints without even telling me or sending me a letter so I can escalate to ofcom.

  • danjconn Dan Conn (@danjconn) reported

    @CraigMucka **** ****. Just spent most of the day rowing with Virgin Media and my Achilles needs to stop aching so I can use it.
