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

    @virginmedia I want my tv service sorting. Just not good enough despite current situation. Second time this fault has occured and fed up of being told “working on it” get it fixed or I leave

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia shock as broadband is down again. Yet you’ll still expect full payment from everyone.

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

    @virginmedia Gone through apps,web,hours on phone even my nieces partner who works for you but system down. I am really getting annoyed

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Service back after a engineer visit last night, with another coming again today. After being with Virgin for years, the Tv and internet service these past 6 months has been poor, surely I should get a reduction on my bill.

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

    @virginmedia I dont mean to be rude but I can tell you now the option to text was not on the "contact us" page I visited on your website, but I see it's just a text option to the live chat anyway so this will be a waste of my time but texting now

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

    @EE Would be more than happy to rejoin EE even without my NHS discount if someone would actually call me back. Don’t think I can take another week of important missed calls from @virginmedia - yes I know they use the EE network but not the enhanced 4G+ side 🙄

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

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get problem with my box sorted for 3 weeks now. Cuts out sound only. Still not sorted and all info followed. Gone beyond frustrated now simply unacceptable customer service I want to know where else I can complain to or where can get sorted

  • Blenky64 John Blenkinsopp (@Blenky64) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I’ve messaged that number twice - first time nearly three hours ago and still no acknowledgement. I think you need to sort this out or all your customers will leave come on - please let me know why there is no customer service response three hours is hopeless

  • lumpss Lisa Harvey (@lumpss) reported from Billingham, England

    Virgin media down 😡

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

    @virginmedia @grimegran You have been awful since the lockdown, yet I keep seeing these hopeful ads that just wind me up as anyone currently on you service knows that it is currently a joke. Yesterday was the first time since the lockdown started that I didnt lose connection at all or have router fail

  • FatAbbott Ste Addison (@FatAbbott) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @SamMorrison19 @virginmedia What kit did you have when it was intermittent, I've got same issues

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    Had visit No 2 from Virgin, a couple of nice chaps,chased cables and removed cable still connected to the network that's not been used for years,new modem,new leads,new remote and the supervisor's number with a call back in a week, all good so far well done @virginmedia

  • Bradley_19_ Bradley Osborne (@Bradley_19_) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @RunnerVi @virginmedia Use their email/live support found on their website.

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

    @virginmedia I appreciate how stretched you must be but I am a key worker and for over a week jow I an unable to contact you to sort out my tv problem. Hours on phone,via app and web still not solved. Can’t watch tv properly need it sorting pronto please.

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

    @virginmedia No as I’m unable to get through 1. Because my signal is horrendous and 2. Because your lines are constantly closed. It seems easier for me to just go back to @EE as I need reliability, I’ve missed too many important phone calls since using VM.

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Ironic you try and blame customers. It’s your service not my house or my equipment or how I’m using it.

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

    @virginmedia Tried this, 3 days to reply per message. Pathetic really, good customer service could compensate for poor phone service but I don’t get either. I get the VM sim for free with my package, I’d rather pay an extra £20 a month elsewhere to make sure I don’t miss important calls

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Spoke too soon back in off again. Obviously nothing to do with modem as it’s new, same issues as before this time off for a fair amount of time now, is there an issue imnn in in TS8 location.

  • wanaldinho wayne burnett (@wanaldinho) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia come on guys internet still not working in Middlesbrough

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

    @RMT3N @virginmedia @FortniteGame @SkyUK I’m actually moaning about a service I pay for but I mean it’s not you pays for my bills I do, so piss off keyboard warrior 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    Thought I’d got away with it but oh no it’s gone down FFS. #virginmedia

  • pob282 Mark Rea (@pob282) reported

    @virginmedia Great service 👏🏻👏🏻 Looking forward to seeing the partial refund to my account for the inconvenience 🤬

  • Joe_Barker1 Joe Barker (@Joe_Barker1) reported

    @SoDanAmazing @ItsMatt_Again @virginmedia A few years ago they were doing some sort of maintenance on the network in the area I lived. It lasted most of a week but they said we weren't eligible for any refund as it wasn't a total stoppage of service because they switched the network back on between 1 & 2 am each day 🤦

  • Liam_Baguley Liam Baguley (@Liam_Baguley) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely unacceptable for your services to go down 4 times in the last 15 hours in Stockport, with how much you charge to use it. Soon as my contract ends im 100% leaving. The past year I’ve had nothing but problems yet paying a premium price. Sort it out
