  • 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.

  • EnticknapHolly Holly, like the tree (@EnticknapHolly) reported from Skelton and Brotton, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin_Victoria I was told it would be delivered today. I got the yodel app, which has informed me its tomorrow. Not good, when I actually called up Virgin to cancel my contract. Its not the best way to keep a customer whose on the edge of leaving you.

  • LiamMDrake Drake (@LiamMDrake) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia are you going to fix this issue surrounding the routers blocking access to Fifa / EA sports

  • 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.

  • Spock_Thornaby Spock Thornaby🖖 (@Spock_Thornaby) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @JustJanety @virginmedia They have been simply rude and unpleasant. We have been good loyal customers since NTL. We are off now. Disgusted,

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

    @DrussSkilgannon Don’t know mate I didn’t play after what happened in the qualifier. It’s a problem between EA and Virgin Media apparently

  • luis70105 Cj . (@luis70105) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    Spend a fortune every month for @virginmedia tv and sky, BT sport and guess what somebody has sold most the games in December to amazon prime , absolutely disgraceful , thanks @virginmedia one unhappy customer. Leaving in the morning , you can count on it. What am I paying for!

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

    After winning 37/37 in the Newcastle #ePL across the groups and the playoffs, I lose in the semi finals and won’t be at the grand final. Hard to describe the conditions I’ve just had to play in due to EA’s issue with Virgin Media, but this really has broken me

  • theJamesWillson James Willson (@theJamesWillson) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia ...just received a letter from VM saying there is nothing they can do re the Virgin TV Go app not working...and here's me thinking it was part of my deal🤔

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia Yeh had to call customer support not amused no TV, Phone or Broadband in our area. Engineer on route 😡

  • 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!

  • RCZPaul Paul D (@RCZPaul) reported

    @virginmedia Still, after all this time and you saying you have the equipment back, I am getting emails to the closed account (you closed it) letters to my old house, (you was notified I have moved) and now I have had to take my complaint to the regulator. Some good talking to you.

  • Tara_Donk Tara? Ace Donkey! (@Tara_Donk) reported

    And so it was declared by the deities of Virgin Media, that on the day of our lord May 5th in the year 2021, the good Donkey would have absolutely appaling internet and would struggle to do absolutely anything, regardless of the Service Status priests declaring all to be well.

  • mmaryJ Jill D 💙 (@mmaryJ) reported

    @virginmedia I've just done that. Nothing has changed on the hub, green arrows flashing. Can you check if a signal is coming into the house? I have a network availability message on the TV now (c130)

  • PW1964 Paul Wright (@PW1964) reported

    @virginmedia You're an comms company whose website is incredibly poor and contains errors and links that don't work. Really poor customer service. Please escalate

  • OgaSamuel I Want Babies IMMEDIATELY (@OgaSamuel) reported

    @virginmedia You didn’t install a landline when you did the installation. You installed the router in the corner of the house so 4 rooms in the house doesn’t get a Wi-Fi connection. Internet randomly goes down frequently. Paying £60 a month for this is ridiculous.

  • LH_PIX Lorraine Hill (@LH_PIX) reported

    If anyone looking for new or transferring their tv / broadband avoid @virginmedia - both provision of service and standard of customer service shocking

  • EpicGamesMc_ EpicGamesMc (@EpicGamesMc_) reported

    @virginmedia Is there any problems you are facing? At the moment the internet is turning off and on and it is quite annoying. I just want to watch Benjyfishy in one hour.

  • BeckiKateW Becki-Kate Marsh (@BeckiKateW) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have tried everything still going slow I’m paying for fast broadband internet which doesn’t work

  • _designblogger designblogger (@_designblogger) reported

    @virginmedia The works are conducted, but they never resolve issues. We still use FreeView, 5 days after the storm. The wifi speed is low, and pages keep crushing on laptop and phones.

  • HotelRach Rachel Smith (@HotelRach) reported

    @jerrijd @virginmedia Ours is still down :(
