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

    @virginmedia @grimegran #Stayconnected the biggest mystery to all Virgin media customers at the moment is how to stay connect to the router and the broadband! Stop promoting ads when your customer service is currently unable to accepts fault reports, 8.5 weeks and counting!

  • 7Tazy Levi (@7Tazy) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @Zyqlon @virginmedia WiFi down stairs

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

    @JohnnyDude1983 @virginmedia The 3rd engineer to visit told me what I need to do and also told me that Virgin Media wont tell me or others what they can do or what the issue is

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

    @virginmedia @bethanymiah_ I'll save you both some time there and tell you now that you will be able to make no difference whatsoever, the hubs have always been awful and it seems they have got worse since lockdown, maybe they can catch Covid too

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

    @virginmedia Done, I'm now down about 360mbs from where my speed normally is, and just checked, yep can still crash my router using my laptop without trying

  • DanielHill21 Daniel Hill (@DanielHill21) reported from Redcar, England

  • timypeg Tim Pegden (@timypeg) reported from Middlesbrough, England

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

    @brfcsdotcom More than good enough, if you were virgin media I could have guessed at the issue and the fix

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

    @maureenbo @TheOnlyElChazmo @virginmedia Since changing my router I have been getting what I pay for, its brilliant now, can't believe they endure so much pain because of a crap router that they should have changed years ago

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

    @virginmedia I have, many many times and it always comes back to same, yet I'm down about 80mbs this morning, I've restarted my router today already because I switched my laptop on (everytime), and I can also crash my router with 1 device almost at will

  • KatieDouglas93 𝓓𝓸𝓾𝓰𝓵𝓪𝓼 (@KatieDouglas93) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    Imagine trying to enjoy a football with buffering every 2 minutes virgin media is ****

  • wilsopw pete wilson (@wilsopw) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia what the hell is going on with my broadband and WiFi, its been dropping on an hourly basis currently on hold with your call centre for 30 mins listening to your crap music!

  • ItsBowmanTV Bowman (@ItsBowmanTV) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    55 quid a month and virgin media constantly going down. Glad I’m out of contract 🙃🙃

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

    @virginmedia Have had this issue since I joined Virgin

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

    @virginmedia can you not save your internet outrages for mid week ffs? I hate being a customer.

  • Emrah48974877 Emrah (@Emrah48974877) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in ts10 area

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

    @virginmedia @grimegran Im Going to keep replying to all this promoted ads until my internet is fixed, 8 weeks and counting! Terrible routers too, range is embarrassing to be honest and crashes under a pretty minimal load

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

    @TheOnlyElChazmo @maureenbo @virginmedia I got £50 for 8 weeks of crap internet at the start if the lockdown but I had to fight for it Best thing all Virgin customers can do is replace the Superhub 3.0, its even a crap doorstop, solved so many if my issues and now I actually have range on my WiFi

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

    @virginmedia Is actually my whole street, I can sit and watch every bodies routers resetting and I assume they are having same speed issues as me

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

    @virginmedia Tried already and you actually made it worse, I put up with for half a day and changed everything back to the better (although still poor and not near what I'm paying for) performance yet you still ask me to buy your tech support service lmfao

  • Mrs_I_B Irena 🇺🇦 (@Mrs_I_B) reported

    @virginmedia We were told it was wiring issue and engineers were working on it I am really getting desperate for some sort of resolution

  • chasheehan Chris Sheehan (@chasheehan) reported

    @virginmedia Why don’t you actually hire more staff? You’ve had a message running for 5 years plus that demand is ‘unprecedented’. Which, you know, is kind of contradictory. You’ve gone from having the rep for legendary customer service to having the worst.

  • BionicBK Bianca © (@BionicBK) reported

    @virginmedia When I use the URL previously it said everything is fine but when I call it says there is an issue in the area with no ETA on a fix?

  • dukeoftadley Richard High (@dukeoftadley) reported

    @virginmedia That’s interesting because so far, every customer service agent has said ‘sorry nothing more I can do’. Might want to have someone look at that!

  • SheenaTWLFC Sheena (@SheenaTWLFC) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. I’ve recently stopped tv package and you want the boxes back. I haven’t received packaging. I’ve been hanging on the phone for 30 minutes. Can you please help?

  • GMatheson5 G Matheson (@GMatheson5) reported

    @virginmedia No we didn't - never have. I've been about six times since I started my contract - think I rang first time just in case but have just made sure roaming etc was on since then.

  • FayeLouisee_x Faye Gallagher 🖤 (@FayeLouisee_x) reported

    @virginmedia how is it I have unlimited minutes, yet it’s telling me I don’t have enough credit to ring someone? An telling me spending cap reached never had this issue until upgrading

  • sorayamatthews_ Soraya Matthews (@sorayamatthews_) reported

    @virginmedia Moving house. We’re requesting for the service to be transferred. If you can’t we have to cancel so we can find an alternative solution. But your team has said they will then charge a cancellation. We are happy to stay with @virginmedia

  • BionicBK Bianca © (@BionicBK) reported

    @virginmedia Is there an ETA for when the issue for phone and wifi will be fixed pls?
