  • 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

  • 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?

  • gaznolan
    Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia hey virgin media - when I'm told a final figure on my account and find out the agent lied and gave me a higher figure and then your complaint team tell me not to worry it'll be sorted. My contract finished on 30/3 but you've still taken a full month's payment (1/2)

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

    @virginmedia Or asking what outcome they want. Anyway, not long after I get a text saying a technician is coming out that I haven’t agreed to and if I’m not home when they come it’ll cost £25. So I have to call up to cancel that and was then told I can’t add to my complaint….

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

    @virginmedia I need some advice and help regarding an urgent issue yet keep getting blocked at every turn. Real good customer service for a longtime customer. Needs sorting

  • rachsclarke
    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

  • 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 I wouldn't recommend your media connect app its awful, the booster you sent out does exactly zero, as for blackspots around the house that would be anywhere in the house more than 1.5m from the hub, all the software in the world won't polish the turn you call a superhub

  • LumbWriter
    David Lumb Writer (@LumbWriter) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet down? I've checked and you're aware of this issue. I would like it sorted out

    @virginmedia Hi. Weve just moved house and are trying to install a new router but house connections look out of date. What is the best contact for someone to help with this as may need someone to come out?

  • Boro_shirts
    Stu # Boro Shirts (@Boro_shirts) reported from Billingham, England

    Anyone else virgin media Internet down billingham?

  • 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

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

    Hi @O2 @virginmedia have all todays allocated tickets for @peterkay_co_uk been sold for today? Been waiting ages - staring at a white screen…. Communication would really help please?

    Hey @virginmedia your WiFi down yet again, third time this week. I’m in TS16 but suspect we are not alone #virginmediadown

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

    @virginmedia as per usual the red button not working AGAIN the amount I pay you each month should provide me with a much much better service than this. What are you doing??????

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

  • PeteYourDoom
    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

    Asif Rana (@HounslowParking) reported

    @bt_uk I'd like to know why your business broadband so called service, can only compound its utter uselessness with skyscraper level brain numbing stupidity? I thought @vmbusiness was utterly indescribably ****, until you came along. You literally make them look like geniuses.

    @punishablepress It's virgin media and woke staff who work on that awful programme.

  • TYS20212
    Told You So (@TYS20212) reported

    @Oxford_Life @virginmedia The new tv box is absolutely abysmal, the worst “upgrade” in history. If it wasn’t for lack of high speed broadband alternatives here we would be off like a shot.

  • The_real_Jambo_
    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @virginmedia @officialprendie I live in this area and lost connection about 20mims ago. Router is flashing red. I work from home, how long will this take to fix?

  • StuartA17243
    Stuart Aird (@StuartA17243) reported

    @virginmedia After 30 years or so with #virginmedia (telewest days) the price hike as an existing customer has finally pushed me to switch £41 for 250meg todays special renewal price after an offer of £40 on the phone yesterday. Double speed is £27 with sky broadband.

  • christobinsings
    Cristoir Toibin (@christobinsings) reported

    @virginmedia absolute shambles of a service today, missed the football and now no Internet again for the last hour. Happy to send me 4 messages to say you've fixed "the issue" Time to move to another provider.

  • NicolaG01
    Nicola Golding (@NicolaG01) reported

    Day 3 of no internet and almost zero communication from @virginmedia. Got a text on Friday saying issue fixed (clearly not) and nothing since. Went on the service tracker to sign up for updates. Still nothing.
