    @virginmedia any chance we'll get reimbursed for the service outage in the TS20 postcode? 2 days we've had a fault

    @virginmedia Advertises the best fastest and most reliable internet you can get but all you get is buffering. Tried to call support team all you get is automated options, please select your option blah blah and all you get is we will send you a link. I want to speak to a human!

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

    @virginmedia why is the red button for the football not working? #virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia Red button for virgin, which I know isn’t true as I’ve used it before. I asked to raise complaints several times to which they just ignored before eventually saying they would raise one. He then said it was raised. Never known a complaint raised without someone describing it…

    @DanWalk32531219 @virginmedia Just checked at 2am, finally back up again, though poor speeds on a speed test, hopefully will improve by the morning 🤞

    @virginmedia what the hell is going on with the broadband today this is ridiculous no service all day!

  • LouiseBaldock
    Louise Baldock 💙 (@LouiseBaldock) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    2 calls on landline from Asia, using dummy UK phone numbers, pretending to be from Virgin Media, telling me of a problem with the security of my router. Neither liked it when I told them their mother and father would be deeply ashamed if they knew what their son was doing.

  • 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

  • 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

  • simonmp68
    SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin I have received a reply which advises me that query won’t be dealt with or further replied to immediately. I am desperately trying to hold it together here,please please can you help me sort this out.

  • 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 JS, have you taken the time to read the thread through? It would appear not as your previous colleague intimated that you would be looking at auto-comp issue when I notified you that the issue had been resolved though you mentioned nothing about that.

  • 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

  • LumbWriter
    David Lumb Writer (@LumbWriter) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet down? I've checked and you're aware of this issue. I would like it sorted out

    WHY IS VIRGIN MEDIA INTERNET ****??? I JUST WANT TO WATCH YOUTUBE ON MY GOD DAMN TABLET

  • DannyTaylorDT
    Danny Taylor (@DannyTaylorDT) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    Every single championship midweek fixtures, there’s always an issue with the red button. They either forget to turn the game on or instead they’ve now managed to put the wrong commentary on. Sort it out @virginmedia @SkyFootball. Wrong commentary on the Boro game

    @virginmedia I am trying to resolve a billing a dispute which has been paid over month ago but is still showing as unpaid on your systems impacting credit scores and everything that goes along with that. No one can help me get this cleared. Missing payments dont respond to emails

  • ScouseBouncy
    Scouse House Bouncy Music (@ScouseBouncy) reported

    @virginmedia Not my account so I can speak you about it. What happens though is, you start a stream and then it corrupts, goes to a black screen and goes to a “Error code: COMPO” then closes. This is not network related, it’s not a box issue. It is an issue with authentication

  • stew187511
    ste (@stew187511) reported

    @virginmedia I need some help with my account, recently moved house and had new WiFi installed and your trying to charge me £103 just for WiFi? Not having it

  • NeoRobins
    Neo ✨ (@NeoRobins) reported

    @virginmedia are abysmal. After harassing us for weeks by knocking at the door we decided to switch to them. Only to be left without wifi for almost an entire month. And customer service keeps making empty promises, telling us that it’ll be installed the next day.
