  • DJLKP LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia 17 days with no TV service, finally resumed today after another manual restarts at this end. Any chance of a refund of half of this month? That's pretty dire.

  • allymcgeorge Alvin TX Fernandez (@allymcgeorge) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia hi I need to cancel an engineer appointment but clearly you've made this difficult to do. Any thoughts?

  • scotty8461 Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia wifi speed is disgustingly slow in NE 27

  • scotty8461 Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia disgusting slow speeds AGAIN in NE27 Cant wait for my contract end

  • Look_North Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.

  • scotty8461 Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia more disgustingly slow speeds in NE27

  • DJLKP LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

  • Dave_is_Elvis David (@Dave_is_Elvis) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

    @virginmedia checked your outage tracker and says all services good on the area. Been without internet for nearly an hour. What is going on?

  • hylt64 Hilly Marshall (@hylt64) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia The issue is I’m trying to cancel my services but I see how you keep customers as nobody will answer the phone to do this hence the reason nobody can leave I’ve now been on hold 1hr 14mins which is totally unacceptable

    @OffMyNoodles @virginmedia Many years ago, the way @virginmedia treated me, I vowed never to have anything to do with them from that day. Never have done, never will do.

  • pumbingchap Cameron Ross (@pumbingchap) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Well that was a pointless exercise reaching out to yourselves. Just proves once again what a load of rubbish Virgin is…. #virginmedia #garbage #dailymirror

  • SimonBewick Simon Bewick (@SimonBewick) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Well since complaining on here about @virginmedia and their terrible phone calls last week I’ve had 5 calls in the last three days all trying to sell me the same upgrade. Absolutely this close (fingers mms apart) from cancelling with them completely. FFS sort it out!

  • DJLKP LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia All on screen instructions followed, waited til I finished work today to check and it still doesn't get past 25% on the "searching for channels" page... Just taken the direct debit for a service which has been broken since 2.12.21...

  • Chickawacka Phil Byrne (@Chickawacka) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia why am I having daily and sometimes multiple outages with your broadband service? Checked service status which always says everything is fine. It's so fine I need to switch off WiFi on my devices and use 4G. Thoughts welcome.

  • Ne31phil Phil Robinson (@Ne31phil) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia please advise Reduced mobile signal in the NE31 area. The signals were fine until a couple of months ago. previously had 4g I now mainly get E or sometimes 3G this is an issue due to my elderly mother-in-law being in hospital and now very poor signal in their home

  • roodle_pipski Ruth Edwards (@roodle_pipski) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia thousands of health and social care support workers are trying to do our jobs from home. Many, like me, are your customers. We’re relying on you, to help us help the people relying on us. Can I suggest that like the supermarkets, you find a way to support us better.

  • paolodi67 Paolo (@paolodi67) reported from Cambuslang, Scotland

    Everyone should cancel their direct debits for @virginmedia until they start answering their calls and allowing people to downgrade their packages. We’ll soon hear from them then. Please RT #virginmedia

  • BAAAAAAAAAAAAB Ben Barrett (@BAAAAAAAAAAAAB) reported from Crawley, England

  • The_Hird the Hird aka Andrew (@The_Hird) reported from Andover, England

    So can’t get my @SkyUK sports postponed as the website is broken and @virginmedia mobile seems to have only given one of the two numbers the extension pretty shit weekend tech wise. #inothernews darn good walk on #Salisburyplain

  • MENorthAffinity Michael Edwards (@MENorthAffinity) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia @bedfordblue968 Don’t bother! I’ve rung 6 times now and every time after over 30 mins waiting they just disconnect your call. Used the text service too but no reply at all

  • steviehind stevie hind (@steviehind) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @virginmedia why is it so difficult t change my package on your website. I understand your phone service is busy, but it shouldn’t be so hard to navigate on the website

  • relovedreams Lil'oldme (@relovedreams) reported from Plymouth, England

    @virginmedia Repeatedly reported the 9 till 11 pm broadband issue when everyone here gets thrown offline or buffered and not just my household others in my locality to. Been fobbed off and no action has ever been taken to investigate and repair. You hide behind 'only 100meg provider'
