  • 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 🤔

  • 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.

  • MickDude MickDude (IndiePenDude) (@MickDude) reported from Redcar, England

    So my @virginmedia V6 box is sat with an orange light on and no apps work My broadband has gone off about 15 times in the last 2 weeks but the Service Status and online equipment check says everything is fine!!!! AGAIN!! #Rubbish

  • PeteYourDoom Peter (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Wired is fine. Wifi is fine but degrades on the first floor. Never used to be bad so wondering if faulty hub 3 or software change

  • MickDude MickDude (IndiePenDude) (@MickDude) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia broadband down again!!!

  • 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.

  • AmyIrving Amy Irving (@AmyIrving) reported from Egglescliffe, England

    Loving the customer service @virginmedia today- no fuss or hassle and the man I spoke to saved me money off my monthly bills thank you!

  • alcampion alan (@alcampion) reported from Stillington, England

    @virginmedia it’s slightly better now but these issues keep a curing now and then but nothing gets done about it I rang about a month ago with same problem so you’re team said they will give a reduction in my bill the following month but that never happened so I’m done with you.

  • 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 😡

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

    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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,

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

    @JustJanety @virginmedia I’m gong to cancel them st home and with family for the rubbish attitude.

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

    @AndyP5693 @ConnorBagan @virginmedia Yeah I checked it, problem in the area, estimated fix by 15:00 💩

  • JoBooth10 Jo Booth (@JoBooth10) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @markeltringham @JimGardnerSNCLP @virginmedia @SteveDustyD He knows he's shit 😂

  • gaussey 𝙼𝚒𝚌𝚑𝚊𝚎𝚕 (@gaussey) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia it’s a terrible state of affairs when you have to be told by an engineer there’s been an area fault for two weeks and you don’t know what is causing it or how to fix it.

  • mimadden M11DGA (@mimadden) reported from Swindon, England

    @virginmedia hello I signed up for your service last month, unfortunately your agent misunderstood my surname, despite informing you of this it’s still not rectified, can you help?

  • jpquinn78 JP Quinn (@jpquinn78) reported

    @virginmedia is your broadband down in Cork ? I am trying to work from home but lost internet service about half an hour ago.

  • GitGudDandy The Dandy Highwayman (@GitGudDandy) reported

    @virginmedia I never received an answer from the text service. I was prompted this morning to again return the equipment, and managed to get a returns pack sent to the correct address. Except I was told it didn't need to be returned and I'm 8 miles away from the nearest collection point 1/2

  • DLbi12John_boy John Casserly (@DLbi12John_boy) reported

    @virginmedia As I said before, a recorded message on the phone line would have been better than nothing. There was NO information given that the network was down till day 2 when the press got hold of the information on social media - 3rd party sources!

  • dcfoxyuk Daniel (@dcfoxyuk) reported

    @MrJamesHarvey93 @virginmedia @DWozza some of the virgin media execs emails. Might be worth trying then for some help

  • KyamilYumerov kyamil yumerov (@KyamilYumerov) reported

    @virginmedia Nobody explain the problem , they talk about hours and days for solving the problem. I am really in a difficult situation.I can’t work , I speny my whole day for calling call center

  • Jonatha68610525 Mr Market FI (@Jonatha68610525) reported

    @virginmedia Yes if I can resolve it. Happy to speak on the phone as well if I can actually resolve the issue

  • juliamorris007 Joolz (@juliamorris007) reported

    @virginmedia I have to do it for them as they don’t know how and I have put in their postcode on your website service checker.

  • karenden74 karen grimes (@karenden74) reported

    @virginmedia when your phone for 40 minutes then they cut you off when you’re trying to complain Can’t email I see Wi-Fi service is so bad and cuts off all the time

  • karenden74 karen grimes (@karenden74) reported

    @virginmedia When your Broadband has not worked properly since installation are you can’t cancel without a £200 fee. So bad you have to use a mobile dongle to hold a virtual meeting may think that’s okay
