    Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Ffs YOU try calling that number and tell me if you get through to somebody. I’ve tried god knows how many times and I just get a machine telling me you’re busy and that I “might like to call again later” every, single time. Your level of service is a joke.

  • Johnsonator85
    Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia In the meantime I can’t do anything then so basically you’ve been no help whatsoever

  • Johnsonator85
    Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia It doesn’t matter what day or what time I try to call I get the same problem!

  • ryderboy24

    @virginmedia any reason why my broadband is so slow and my bill is so expensive

    mick arthur (@m_arthur1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia @d754771 I’m still waiting for the call aswell I know it’s a bad time with call centres closed but come on Sunday I was told 24hrs

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

    @virginmedia So why do you not have a chat system? I work in a similar industry and we are able to help our customer through chat, phone, online, social media it’s crazy a company of the size of virgin media can’t accommodate us. Not having a go at you I’m just disappointed in the system

  • MillingtonJulia
    julia millington (@MillingtonJulia) reported from Marske-by-the-Sea, England

    @virginmedia please can you confirm is there a wifi connection problem in the TS11 area?

  • MrTaylorM
    BoroMike (@MrTaylorM) reported from New Marske, England

    Looks like #virginmedia is down again in New Marske. If it’s preventative maintenance they should tell us.

  • Johnsonator85
    Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia who have I got to screw to get through to cancel my contract with you?

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

    @virginmedia Mainly wireless but wired issues too

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

    @virginmedia Rebooting does nothing and service status page says nothing and if it was to do with that it would mean you owe me 5 years worth of credit notes

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

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

  • 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

  • lenJunier
    *** Junier (@lenJunier) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia tried to login to "myvirginmedia" numerous times Forgot password Tried go through reset 6 times Hopeless

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

    @virginmedia They can't help either, the real issue, lets be honest, is the fact nobody at Virgin will admit their equipment is awful and not really fit for purpose, the least super thing ever is the superhub 3.0

  • RobertTamkin94
    Robert-Andrew Tamkin (@RobertTamkin94) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to contact your call centre for 15 minutes and I’ve tried all the options and I can’t get through to ANYONE!! I want to cancel my contract and it doesn’t give you the option online to do so!! Can someone cancel it from your social media team?

  • 147mick
    Michael White (@147mick) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Yes problems with wired devices as well, I have to turn the hub off then on again all the time even if I'm in the same room.

    @virginmedia Ive spent hours on hold, I’m not wasting more time to speak to a call centre in a far away land! Happy to give account information through a DM. Alternatively, @virginmedia can just continue to ignore me and I can terminate the service under non provision of the contract 👍

  • pkm1968
    Phil Mercer (@pkm1968) reported

    @virginmedia hi, is there an issue with your email service, its saying cannot load emails at present. Am VM customer with broadband. Thanks

  • MarkBillinge

    @virginmedia Using either webmail or iOS mail app can’t get access. Have been given various possible reasons but no solution!!

  • SilverwolfFTW
    Billy Bxrns (@SilverwolfFTW) reported

    @virginmedia the wifi has been off for two days?? Is it gonna come back anytime soon? We’re paying for a service we’re not getting. I also have online businesses I need to run!!

  • FaceEllis
    Terry The Face Ellis (@FaceEllis) reported

    @virginmedia it's been 5wks now without proper network service and it's STILL not fixed 😡😡😡 but I bet you still charge me the full bill what is due

  • anna_down
    Anna (@anna_down) reported

    @virginmedia @k_a_murray @virginmedia have you ever tried to speak to your installation team? I just kept getting transferred to “someone who can help” who clearly in fact every time was just someone else to transfer me to - and had to repeat account details and my tale of woe again. Just gave up

  • SG4T4SG
    Sarah Ganfield (@SG4T4SG) reported

    @virginmedia my whole area continually has issues with slow internet and connections with VM. Despite complaints & recording of issues this continues. All checks say the signal and strength is great-so why does it happen. We are paying through the nose for a substandard service

  • dazmitch2
    darren mitchell (@dazmitch2) reported

    @virginmedia 4 days have passed, No response from anyone at Virgin Media........I guess that sums up the level of customer service a longstanding customer should expect....Time to swap to Sky I think.....to which I would urge everybody to do !!!

  • InkredibleBulk
    kurtis deakin (@InkredibleBulk) reported

    @virginmedia Ia appreciate the apology but an honest estimate of time and what's happening would help? Cos sorry doesn't help me. I rely on the Internet to work and when out I rely on it for the cameras so I can keep an eye on my elderly dementia parent.

  • chelphelps
    Cheryl Phelps-Moran (@chelphelps) reported

    After 3hrs of talking to Virgin Media, problem still not sorted in fact we are worse off then before, really not happy. And have to wait four days for technical support, disgraceful.#virginmedia@virginmedia
