    @virginmedia Are you effing kidding me - you're doing it again. Internet has dropped for the second time this month. I wonder what you'd do if I didn't provide payment like you fail to provide service.

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

  • ha66ie Paul Haggie (@ha66ie) reported from Yarm, England

    @virginmedia you really need more staff. I cannot get through to your retention team. I have wasted hours over different days. God awful waiting times. No updates whatsoever.

  • HasteukS Sara (@HasteukS) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Agent has disconnected with no notice, appalling service

  • nickeyley Eee-lee (@nickeyley) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia You can't even get my name right. It literally says it on my account. Absolutely basic customer service and you can't even do that properly. Shit company with shit service and useless customer support.

  • Poddddddd Jamie Gilbey (@Poddddddd) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia It’s not internet related. If it was the all my other devices would have an issue. Tried on numerous occasions to reset the router but it hasn’t fixed the problem. It’s going to need an engineer.

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia It was WiFi only, service status wasn't showing any issue, as mentioned, it has appeared to of resolved itself now.

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

    @virginmedia I got through Ok! Problem is how long it takes to undertake what seems to be a very simple and straightforward task like removing a TIVO box from your package. You are also way too expensive will be looking at other options shortly 🤔

  • HasteukS Sara (@HasteukS) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @slimbob12 @virginmedia i know how you feel! I’ve been waiting for over hour and a half!!Appalling service!

  • jimmyhadman James Hadman (@jimmyhadman) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @tescomobile hi guys, really unhappy with service earlier today - exchanges @Tesco Clubcard vouchers to use towards a new Phone for my son, but now I’ve been told I can’t use the vouchers towards a purchase, only deduct from my own bill. @virginmedia here I come!

  • StephBeswickx makeup by Steph (@StephBeswickx) reported

    @virginmedia I'm unable to make outbound calls even though I pay for a monthly contract and should have unlimited calls. Your website hasn't been helpful and tells me to call you... which I can't do. Can you help?

  • emmacur71792881 emma curtis (@emmacur71792881) reported

    Virgin media service is shocking they leave a OAP with no tv service for three weeks and charge her full service and then say a technician is coming that does not turn up the worst I have ever heard - avoid virgin

  • JHippeh Adam (@JHippeh) reported

    I started watching a 21 min video like half an hour ago... I'm on 7 mins in because virgin media is so ****

  • Azza_Brown Azza Brown (@Azza_Brown) reported

    @virginmedia I have tried since January to cancel my father’s subscription because you can’t send an engineer until you’ve been able to trouble shoot with the account holder. I’ve explained you cannot trouble shoot over the phone with a deaf person. #deafdiscrimination

  • prasadtungar Sarcasism (@prasadtungar) reported

    @virginmedia Plz plz dont ask me to check your hopeless test as i m not even able to login to your wifi to check you service status.. feel shame

  • BUNNYDlET an ☻ (@BUNNYDlET) reported

    @xyniw it’s like virgin media and stuff i never thought abt it 😭

  • Jasperj30Mel mel clarke (@Jasperj30Mel) reported

    @virginmedia please can someone help as the app is useless. My landline is no longer working, no dial tone, can't receive or make calls so can't phone virgin. The app says there is no problem but trust .e there is, I am paying for a service I can't use. My phone is fine

  • markypee43 markus (@markypee43) reported

    @virginmedia my ntlworld email was hacked. Rang through spoke to someone called melody who changed the password. Very unsecure password. Was told call back yesterday. Nothing. This is quite serious and as usual your service is poor. No problem taking my direct debit though.

  • iamdavestott Dave Stott (@iamdavestott) reported

    @virginmedia I've already raised the complaint! You told me I have to call you. The number I was given has no option to choose to speak to someone about a complaint. I want a telephone number to speak to someone so I can get the money back that you should never have taken in the first place!
