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

    Question?? how long before Virgin Media shuts down your email if you leave them?? @VirginMediaCorp

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

    @beardedian @VirginMediaCorp Then again I wouldn't expect anything less from Virgin Media. The only thing that is stopping me leaving them is losing my emails. Going to look into an alternative solution to that problem tomorrow

  • benrelton ben (@benrelton) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Broadband is down in our area, but can’t register loss of service on the website - just won’t work. Any ideas? @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…

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

    @virginmedia An area outage with something your end caused my issue (no bband) to flag as being resolved at your end. That was not the case in slightest (still without bband) and the tech appt this morning being cancelled but no notification

  • 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

  • WheezyRider44 Matt Greenfield-Westcott (@WheezyRider44) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia But this has gone on for months, not days or weeks. It can't be that difficult to identify the problem and find a solution.

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

    @virginmedia hey virgin media - when I'm told a final figure on my account and find out the agent lied and gave me a higher figure and then your complaint team tell me not to worry it'll be sorted. My contract finished on 30/3 but you've still taken a full month's payment (1/2)

  • ajtheladplummy Adam (@ajtheladplummy) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @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!

  • AlanHewitt10 Big Al H (@AlanHewitt10) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia how do you have the front to increase my bills by nearly 20 percent and yet your service has been awful lately. In the morning my tv broadband and landline is going. And my mobile will not be renewed.

  • 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)

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia I’ve cancelled the visit but why should I have to call back in the first place to cancel a visit I didn’t agree to? I wanted it adding to my initial complaint or raising separately but no one was interested. Cancel my contract

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

    @virginmedia fully and reasonably, the agent response was "oh okay" and put the phone down. How do I make a formal complaint about the atrocious service you guys offer? (2/2)

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

    @virginmedia as per usual the red button not working AGAIN the amount I pay you each month should provide me with a much much better service than this. What are you doing??????

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

    @virginmedia Or asking what outcome they want. Anyway, not long after I get a text saying a technician is coming out that I haven’t agreed to and if I’m not home when they come it’ll cost £25. So I have to call up to cancel that and was then told I can’t add to my complaint….

  • mark001282 Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    @virginmedia It's been going on for 8 weeks. I'm going to document this all and put it online for everyone to see how poor you have been. It's so stressful and you are doing nothing to help

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

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

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

    @virginmedia So when does that happen and why was this not pointed out at any time in the cancellation process. Now I'm not a customer how do I lodge a formal complaint please?

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

    @virginmedia My issue is bband been down since Thursday night and Friday a tech visit for this morning between 8 and 12. Due to an outage at your end, the visit was incorrectly cancelled as your records showed as "now fixed". We didn't find this until contacting yourselves after 12 today

    @virginmedia @p_jassi How did you get on? I am having the same issues. 3G signal only, no 4G.

  • tony1945 Tony Crean (@tony1945) reported from Richmond, England

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 This guff about roaming charges is nonsense, Nadine ..... But then you queried the amount of state support going to Channel 4, when in fact they're self-financing. Truth, eh? Not a standard which you bother with much...

  • Saul74167334 Sir Saul Acrock (@Saul74167334) reported

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 You are the worst prime minister ever. A liar and a cheat. Please go away and count your corrupt fortune and leave us alone.

  • NACarter Nick Carter (@NACarter) reported

    @virginmedia for a long time now the WiFi in the house from your router is awful (didn’t used to be), but because the broadband speed is ok when connected via a cable you won’t do anything about it. It is having a significant impact on working from home. V unhappy with VM.

  • greyfox2000 GreyFox (@greyfox2000) reported

    @virginmedia can you let me know what is going on in the SW20 area of London please? I've had massive intermittent issues for almost 48 hours now and there doesn't seem to be any info anywhere. Also why is your status page down? Very frustrating when you can't even get any info.

  • derge12 Zeboostef (@derge12) reported

    @BorisJohnson @virginmedia @O2 Is that the best you have got after 5 years of toil? A failed economy, bankrupt farmers, fisherfolk, an NHS set up to fail, a workforce unable to pay its bills, & a huge shortage of key workers in essential services. You must be so proud.

  • pauldinning Paul Dinning (@pauldinning) reported

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Please just stop making this **** up. You know fine well that’s not what happened. #TorySleaze

  • HJ_Mason Happy Mason (@HJ_Mason) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve just done this and there is no complaint live. What on Earth is going on? How hard is it to register a complaint? I literally just want the internet to work. I don’t super fast speed, I just need internet access, which you have struggled to provide over 3 years if complaints

  • John_P_McD John (@John_P_McD) reported

    @virginmedia 5th time today trying to sort out my new contract. Agreed £41 a month with a woman who spoke terrible English (over her baby crying), but contract on my account says £80 a month. Will cancel everything today if it isn't sorted. Diabolical customer service.

  • dazzauk1966 darren c (@dazzauk1966) reported

    @virginmedia @resurp86 Virgin teams do nothing to help just rip you off also staff don’t have a clue what they are doing i know more than them not fit to trade #profitingyanks
