    @virginmedia TS17 down too

  • wicks_michael
    Michael Wicks (@wicks_michael) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on with your website unable to access via my O2 or Vodafone mobile network. No problems with any other websites 😡

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

    @virginmedia It's a waste of time tbh, all they do is insist I take the hub out of modem mode and when they do eventually agree you are rubbish and put me through to line faults they either just hang up or the battery on my phone dies

  • gaznolan
    Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia great service NOT! Called yesterday to disconnect and was blatantly given incorrect information by the chat agent. Had a call today from another retention agent asking how he could resolve the issues so I explained what happened. (1/2)

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

    @virginmedia Rebooting does nothing and service status page says nothing and if it was to do with that it would mean you owe me 5 years worth of credit notes

  • Shaunelious
    Shaun Calvert (@Shaunelious) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve got 16 months left on my current contract but I’d like to cancel it as I have good reason

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

    @virginmedia I've done this many times previously and does nothing, the most recent request to switch it from modem mode is so you would process my complaint with ofcom which in turn means I'm without WiFi for 30 days unless standing on the "superhub"

  • Loulameg
    Louise Donaldson (@Loulameg) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    Having an absolute nightmare with @virginmedia on the phone since Thursday and still no further forward, the staff literally just tell you anything to get you off the phone. Anyone know how I make an official complaint? We’ve had no services for days now

    3 weeks and 2 engineers later and the broadband outage between the hours of 6 and 9 continues, absolute useless from @virginmedia next steps unless engineer 3 can fix this tomorrow is #ofcom and seeing if we can switch providers 👋

    @virginmedia Yes. I’ve been quite I’ll for some time and my finances are a bit of a mess after an account hack that is still being sorted out. I don’t know how much more I can take,stuck in house with nothing and been on chat for over an hour with little reply from anyone human please help

  • HannMarieRose
    Hannah (@HannMarieRose) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia midway through the last episode of #SilentWitness and my virgin decides to go down, couldn't of timed it better if you tried 😫😫

  • TerryFBH
    Terry Chapman or FBH (@TerryFBH) reported from Yarm, England

    @virginmedia I look forward to receiving your offer regarding the complaints that I already made and have still not received a response. I suppose you could consider this a further complaint that your complaints process is inadequate.

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

    @virginmedia I wouldn't recommend your media connect app its awful, the booster you sent out does exactly zero, as for blackspots around the house that would be anywhere in the house more than 1.5m from the hub, all the software in the world won't polish the turn you call a superhub

  • Curriepeter1
    Currie.peter (@Curriepeter1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet so slow and buffering every day I’m pay for a service that’s not fit suitable

  • SiClayton
    Simon Clayton (@SiClayton) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Hi @02 @virginmedia has all the allocated of @peterkay_co_uk tickets been sold for today? Been waiting ages - staring at a white screen…. Communication would really help please?

  • MillingtonJulia
    julia millington (@MillingtonJulia) reported from Marske-by-the-Sea, England

    @virginmedia please can you confirm is there a wifi connection problem in the TS11 area?

  • mark770
    Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia how can you justify levying £25.00 charges if fail to cancel a "now resolved" tech visit but you fail to reciprocate the gesture when YOU cancel a visit and fail to notify the customer with the cancellation being due to an "outage" at your end? Shambolic&insulting

  • Thejollyevfan
    The Jolly EV Fan (now living up in the North) (@Thejollyevfan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia DM me so I can give contact details. Don’t think it would cause a problem but I’d worry about affecting neighbours services or possible future services should we come back to you.

    @virginmedia your internet is so bad

    @virginmedia I am in desperate need of help, my tv isn’t working properly, the phone line I been given tells me it’s not available. Once I got through giving it my account number it doesn’t recognise my account number. It’s turning into nightmare. Can you help

  • darrenwhitehall
    Darren Whitehall (@darrenwhitehall) reported

    @virginmedia can someone tell why is my tv service not working . None of telephone number for the company seem are not working either and network status does not either this is absolutely terrible customer service

  • premitrom
    Premitrom (@premitrom) reported

    @TheMorrisLand It was down for a couple of hours after 10:30 but came back. But only for an hour or so. Now 13:08 the problem has returned #virginmedia

  • norbertsteelez
    Norbertsteelez (@norbertsteelez) reported

    @virginmedia No TV channels all day. Just pixelated pictures. Tried the the website and it cannot check the service for my area. Pretty poor and amateur. And all we will get is a meaningless apology. What would happen if I held back my payments for a period of time and then apologising?

  • gladders1
    Elaine Gladman (@gladders1) reported

    @virginmedia what is going on with our tv services today one minute it ok now it’s not working again sort it out

  • Blue_Cav
    Carl Cavell (@Blue_Cav) reported

    @virginmedia Been a while now, to get compensation for lack of service you need to inform you. Yet ironically the website doesn't recognise customer accounts. Might tell Alainis Morrisette now.

  • Medzy1506
    Ahmed Mohamed (@Medzy1506) reported

    @virginmedia Been down since approx 9am this morning and still not resolved.
