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

    @virginmedia You won't process it as I am not willing to pay for 30 days of no Internet as the hub has almost zero range even if my line issues are resolved

  • stelambert1977
    steven lambert (@stelambert1977) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

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

  • rachsclarke
    rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm your sky sports red button will be working tonight for the Boro match as there is always problems with it, as if it’s not I’ll purchase the match with a different provider instead. Plenty of notice here for an 19:45 kick off

    Our broadband in TS10 has been down all day, the status page says no issues, but self test says there is no connection @virginmedia - is this related to the issues at Roseberry Square, Redcar, and when will it be resolved. So far no communication from you!

  • 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

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

    @virginhelp @Virgin Sorry,yeah it’s Virgin Media. Just waited an hour on Wednesday and it’s over half an hour now I can’t wait any longer owing to an appointment but I need some help as soon as possible Thankyou

  • 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 😫😫

  • andy_wilmot
    Andy Wilmot (@andy_wilmot) reported from Hartlepool, England

    £40+ a month for WiFi which cuts in and out. Just another day for a @virginmedia customer 🤬😡

  • rachsclarke
    rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Wireless mainly, even though the device is right next to the router. This is the 3rd day in a row - never had this problem in the 10yr of been a customer

  • beck5ter
    Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I have been one of your customers for years. We have broadband (used constantly) TV (never switched on) Telephone (only Virgin call it)

  • 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 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

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

    @beardedian @virginmedia @O2 Set up fee and possibly extra for the service you'll have before the next DD comes out?

  • john_watson_
    𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

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

  • AndreaAndymac
    andrea mcdonald (@AndreaAndymac) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia again I have to go through social media to contact your company. I need to speak with a human regarding your poor customer service

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

    @virginmedia I’m using a lot of data trying to sort this out as no internet. I feel like I’m going mad. Your company says ask us for help during these difficult times yet I have and have been treat really shabbily. I’m so frustrated and angry please help me
