    @virginmedia Waiting on the Medallia survey as the engineer was fab. Want to make sure he gets recognition for his good service

    @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.

  • 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

  • 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.

    Why are virgin media so crap so slow and keeps buffering every day we pay for a service that’s not fit for the purpose

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

    @virginmedia @dakotafiction Same here ts10, broadband is down, your status says no issues!

  • 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 🤬😡

  • 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.

  • AllpointsTV
    AllpointsTV - Jamie (@AllpointsTV) reported from Guisborough, England

    @virginmedia Yes , and it says no issues and then asks to check my equipment , this test says there is an issue with my equipment and I should check again in 24 hours so an engineer can be arranged . This has now been saying check back in an hour for the last two hours

  • 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….

  • MrTaylorM
    BoroMike (@MrTaylorM) reported from New Marske, England

    Looks like #virginmedia is down again in New Marske. If it’s preventative maintenance they should tell us.

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

    Absolutely atrocious service AGAIN from @virginmedia - broadband, TV, telephone - all down and Tuesday is the earliest anybody can be bothered to come out - from one of the largest telecoms companies in the UK 😡😡😡

  • 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 😫😫

    @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!

    @virginmedia Aaarrrggghhh, red button not working on Sky Sports tonight any idea why?

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

    @virginmedia They can't help either, the real issue, lets be honest, is the fact nobody at Virgin will admit their equipment is awful and not really fit for purpose, the least super thing ever is the superhub 3.0

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

    @virginmedia My services are suspended. I am housebound,no tv no internet. I only ask for an extension to further my services for one week but company rules and non-existent customer service is really upsetting me. I’ve been a loyal customer and feel betrayed

  • 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…

    Ed Jones (@edujones14) reported

    @Johnty14 @virginmedia Better than when they came to my house. I’m not a customer but they still came while I was out and dug up plants in my front garden to access connecting services I didn’t ask for. Then refused any contact with me afterwards due to not being a customer!

  • William232393
    William (@William232393) reported

    I had Virgin Media - for 10 hours, I also had Virgin Money, I will never EVER touch anything at all with Virgin in front of its name.

    Chris Tindall (@chewytheleftie) reported

    @alan_reddish @sibelian62 @virginmedia They are a terrible company for internet. Fortunately for us we have plenty of their direct rivals who we use instead now after they made it clear our custom was of no interest to them

  • lightbody
    Lightbody 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@lightbody) reported

    @virginmedia please please please can you replace my ancient 11 year old Hub 3. It doesn't play nice with my modern Nest WiFi Pro mesh system. It wasn't very good when it was new! Customer services won't help because it's not actually broken!
