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

    @virginmedia how can you justify levying £25.00 charges if fail to cancel a "now resolved" tech visit but you fail to reciprocate the gesture when YOU cancel a visit and fail to notify the customer with the cancellation being due to an "outage" at your end? Shambolic&insulting

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

    @virginmedia how can I cancel my contract? Unable to get through via phone.

  • WheezyRider44

    @virginmedia Is your red button not working again?!?

  • 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

  • simonmp68
    SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I’ve been quite I’ll for some time and my finances are a bit of a mess after an account hack that is still being sorted out. I don’t know how much more I can take,stuck in house with nothing and been on chat for over an hour with little reply from anyone human please help

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

    @virginmedia what’s going on with your website unable to access via my O2 or Vodafone mobile network. No problems with any other websites 😡

  • Loulameg
    Louise Donaldson (@Loulameg) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    Having an absolute nightmare with @virginmedia on the phone since Thursday and still no further forward, the staff literally just tell you anything to get you off the phone. Anyone know how I make an official complaint? We’ve had no services for days now

  • TerryFBH
    Terry Chapman or FBH (@TerryFBH) reported from Yarm, England

    @virginmedia I look forward to receiving your offer regarding the complaints that I already made and have still not received a response. I suppose you could consider this a further complaint that your complaints process is inadequate.

  • beck5ter
    Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I have been one of your customers for years. We have broadband (used constantly) TV (never switched on) Telephone (only Virgin call it)

  • ajtheladplummy
    Adam (@ajtheladplummy) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Advertises the best fastest and most reliable internet you can get but all you get is buffering. Tried to call support team all you get is automated options, please select your option blah blah and all you get is we will send you a link. I want to speak to a human!

  • sharon_mulcahy
    sharon mulcahy (@sharon_mulcahy) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia what the hell is going on with the broadband today this is ridiculous no service all day!

  • Ben_McBean
    You're a cantaloupe ÂûDHD (@Ben_McBean) reported from Yarm, England

    @virginmedia I switched it off at the mains at 13:00. Still not working. Also received a vishing message from a fake VM account about these messages.

  • AndreaAndymac
    andrea mcdonald (@AndreaAndymac) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia again I have to go through social media to contact your company. I need to speak with a human regarding your poor customer service

  • john_watson_
    𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    @PandOminous @virginmedia Same here also TS10, no communication from @virginmedia as to whether it's down to the issues in Roseberry Square, and 3 to 4 network vans at the box, a car went in to it apparently. Even just an eta of when service will be restored would help!

  • SiClayton
    Simon Clayton (@SiClayton) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Absolutely atrocious service AGAIN from @virginmedia - broadband, TV, telephone - all down and Tuesday is the earliest anybody can be bothered to come out - from one of the largest telecoms companies in the UK 😡😡😡

  • Core_Legal
    CoreLegal (@Core_Legal) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    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.

  • Shaunelious
    Shaun Calvert (@Shaunelious) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve cancelled the visit but why should I have to call back in the first place to cancel a visit I didn’t agree to? I wanted it adding to my initial complaint or raising separately but no one was interested. Cancel my contract

  • mark001282
    Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    @virginmedia It's been going on for 8 weeks. I'm going to document this all and put it online for everyone to see how poor you have been. It's so stressful and you are doing nothing to help

  • john_watson_
    𝕁𝕠𝕙𝕟 𝕎𝕒𝕥𝕤𝕠𝕟 🎧🎙📻 (@john_watson_) reported from Redcar, England

    Our broadband in TS10 has been down all day, the status page says no issues, but self test says there is no connection @virginmedia - is this related to the issues at Roseberry Square, Redcar, and when will it be resolved. So far no communication from you!

  • WheezyRider44
    Matt Greenfield-Westcott (@WheezyRider44) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia But this has gone on for months, not days or weeks. It can't be that difficult to identify the problem and find a solution.

    @virginmedia Of all the times for my Internet go down this is the best time. Going to nightclub soon so I dont need it but still ffs. Hope its working by tomorrow. #virginmedia

  • Delveyboy
    Heinz Beanz (@Delveyboy) reported

    @virginmedia contractors are outside now, cutting up my wires so I have no connection. The earliest they can fix it, is Thursday. Absolute jokers.

  • BathSupporters
    Bath Supporters (@BathSupporters) reported

    @KenTrowbridge3 @virginmedia Worst supplier I have ever had - but we have no choice for full fibre here, so it’s literally the best of a bad bunch. I will change when other providers come in at a heartbeat!

  • TheShannimal_
    TheShannimal (@TheShannimal_) reported

    Maybe not. Internet is down for a second day running. At least @virginmedia aren’t trying to double the price of our monthly broadband if we stay with them… oh wait, they are.

  • ConnorsOldMan
    Just Ian (@ConnorsOldMan) reported

    @virginmedia I've not sorted a new provider yet but have cancelled my virgin services already. Your company is not interested in sorting customers out with what they want, rather than making them keep a service they don't need. I was told i needed to keep my phone for Internet!

  • jemski7
    Jemski (@jemski7) reported

    @virginmedia well done. You’ve lost me as a customer of 25 years because you wouldn’t supply me just broadband like you do for new customers. That’s is some ****** up priorities. Good riddance to you.

  • TidderG
    Tidder green (@TidderG) reported

    @youfibre been trying to upgrade for a over a week now but keep getting passed on if the phone system doesn't go in a loop or tell you there's a application error and hang up on you and today I come home to see that I don't have the public IP i pay for going back to Virgin Media as soon

  • rick_x
    rick_x (@rick_x) reported

    @virginmedia I want to make a complaint but with a paper/electronic trail, I have been trying to get a fault addressed but it has been impossible to speak to anyone hence the complaint

  • breadtoastiee
    bread (@breadtoastiee) reported

    @virginmedia There's been no sudden power loss that could cause corruption or any factors like that, every other recording available on the box is perfectly watchable, and the recording was complete (as mentioned above). It seems to only be those 3 channels that closed that i'm having issues

  • WaggyMama
    Waggy Mama (@WaggyMama) reported

    @footballontnt is there an issue with streaming of Porto v NFFC? Quality on Virgin TV is awful @virginmedia
