    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

    Peter 🐈🎸🕹️🍺♈ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia It was working fine, then went off and came back but the hub was flashing green quite quickly. When it renegotiates it's usually slow and steady green flash but this was really quick

  • SimonHolliday13
    Simon (@SimonHolliday13) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately it's still not fixed. No TV and no Internet. Both keep dropping in and out intermittently. Which is better than zero service yesterday and I may finally finish that book on conscription I bought in Leeds earlier this year.

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

    @virginmedia No, just continue to ignore me as they have no idea how to fix it

  • 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

  • mark770
    Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia An area outage with something your end caused my issue (no bband) to flag as being resolved at your end. That was not the case in slightest (still without bband) and the tech appt this morning being cancelled but no notification

  • 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 😫😫

  • Curriepeter1
    Currie.peter (@Curriepeter1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    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

  • Sarahlw_95
    Sarah-Louise Wilkinson (@Sarahlw_95) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia is it normal practice for your employees to shout at customers down the phone and then hang up?

  • john_watson_

    @DanWalk32531219 @virginmedia Just checked at 2am, finally back up again, though poor speeds on a speed test, hopefully will improve by the morning 🤞

    Our phone lines and internet are down at our Wakefield office at the moment due to a national Virgin media issue. We have been advised that this is trying to be rectified as soon as possible and when we have an update from them we will update our social media platforms.

    rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm your sky sports red button will be working tonight for the Boro match as there is always problems with it, as if it’s not I’ll purchase the match with a different provider instead. Plenty of notice here for an 19:45 kick off

  • stelambert1977
    steven lambert (@stelambert1977) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Finally red button service working on Virgin. Only missed half of the @Boro match!! ;however commentary is from the Blackburn match. #PoorService #virginmedia

  • mark770
    Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia My issue is bband been down since Thursday night and Friday a tech visit for this morning between 8 and 12. Due to an outage at your end, the visit was incorrectly cancelled as your records showed as "now fixed". We didn't find this until contacting yourselves after 12 today

  • rachsclarke
    rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia You realise we’ve already missed 35 minutes of this 90 minute match? Are you going to be refunding customers due to your inconsistent service

  • Danielson_1991
    Daniel Thompson (@Danielson_1991) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia I honestly can't deal with being passed around departments again. The problem is the WiFi is weak upstairs and I'm paying for a product thats not fit for service. You advertise intelligent pods to boost connections, all I want is to order one to resolve the issue.

  • stumpy1982
    Michelle Coleman (@stumpy1982) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia please sort the red button out!!!! There’s always issues! Wrong commentary on the red button games!

    @vonobox @stepickering @virginmedia It's my job… it's the same as anything other work from home job I've never had this problem before so I never though of needing a back up hotspot ect.

    @virginmedia @Stsantek So you can condescendingly say ‘you’re sorry to hear that and that you understand’? Your customer service is as bad as @BandQ both clueless and useless

  • Vikk3rs146
    Mark vix (@Vikk3rs146) reported

    @jaluch @virginmedia I just left after 30 years of being a customer because of that attitude..it’s true ,they couldn’t give a **** .

    @virginmedia you are telling me you are extremely busy on 25 minutes hold. Guess what? I am Busy Too but you are not paying me several pounds a month! Employ more staff...am going to Ombdsman about shambolic service

  • ToddCoxeter
    d f (@ToddCoxeter) reported

    @Shiv_who_burns @virginmedia Rude, no? I swear that, for Virgin, mumbling in accents in a noisy call centre is a deliberate tactic. Anyhow. I switched to basically a business broadband. It's both a bit dear, and cheaper than those pirates.

  • RodRapid1784
    Sir Rapid Rod (@RodRapid1784) reported

    @virginmedia is there a problem with phone signal atm
