  • Markticus 𝕭𝖎𝖌 M𝖆𝖗𝖐𝖇𝖔𝖜𝖘𝖐𝖎 (@Markticus) reported from Consett, England

    Incredibly stressful and poor customer service from @virginmedia, Not adhering to T+Cs. Agent lying on phone to me. not allowing complaints and just blatantly lying Absolutely disgusted

  • rl_chris_higham Chris Higham (@rl_chris_higham) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @k_faulkner @virginmedia @jimconey I only got offered the new customer deal 20 days into my 30 day notice period after actually quitting! By which point I'd already signed up with someone else

  • WarrenBaister Warren Baister 🇬🇧 (@WarrenBaister) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia Yes unable to use it. Wireless is very poor and was great during the first couple of weeks. Uploading is very hot and miss. Not happy considering I’m paying for fast broadband. My phone rarely connects to it unless I’m fairly close to the router. This can’t be right

  • NikoSarcevic Niko (@NikoSarcevic) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Service page doesn’t indicate anything. I’ve checked all the devices (I only use the wifi no lan cables) and nothing is connected.

  • Deborah24780132 Deborah Gibson (@Deborah24780132) reported from Newburn, England

    @VirginMediaCorp @virginmedia sort your employees out, two days in a row they have called me and hung up when I asked them to remove my number from your system. Poor customer service !!!!

  • vanderpijpen ChrisV2theP™ (@vanderpijpen) reported from Wallsend, England

    @virginmedia Yeah because they couldn't get it to work so my problem was hardly resolved!!!!!!

  • MikeYau8 Mike Yau (@MikeYau8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia So now moved to @vmbusinesshelp line instead of residential activated yesterday and new router installed with no problems. Tonight 7.19pm internet goes down? 7.45m internet goes down? I am paying significantly more and receiving the same poor line?!?!?

  • MJGray1963 Michael Gray 💙 (@MJGray1963) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia No customer service just ignore customers

  • MikeYau8 Mike Yau (@MikeYau8) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia So I expected a call today before 12pm from business team I also logged a call back on the website for one of the team to call me before 12pm. Engineer on Friday said someone would call in the morning it’s now just gone after 12 and I am still waiting? This is poor?!

  • lbschmee Liam Bowering (@lbschmee) reported from Gateshead, England

    Hi @virginmedia, I have recently signed up for your WiFi package. However the Webpage when I try to register for a My Virgin Media account appears to be broken. Is there any other way to register for an account online? Thank you

  • MJGray1963 Michael Gray 💙 (@MJGray1963) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia There is no webmail to log on says try later - for 5 weeks Absolute shocking service

  • WarrenBaister Warren Baister 🇬🇧 (@WarrenBaister) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia There isn’t any reported problems in my area but mine is very ‘hit and miss’ at the moment. I’ll go for periods where nothing will upload/download at all

  • MJGray1963 Michael Gray 💙 (@MJGray1963) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Customer service non existant

  • WarrenBaister Warren Baister 🇬🇧 (@WarrenBaister) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia my WiFi is terrible. So slow and it’s meant to be the fastest. Regretting the switch at the minute

  • SandyMcWatson Sandy 🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🇪🇺🌍☮️ (@SandyMcWatson) reported from Newburn, England

    @virginmedia Yes. There is a known issue in my area but no "explanation". It's states the fix estimate is 3pm. That's almost a whole day's salary.

  • wolfrubin Christian Wolf Rubin (@wolfrubin) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia The worst bit is that I was on hold for 36 minutes listened to the same song 3 times and then was hung up on.

  • mmcvickers Michael McVickers (@mmcvickers) reported from Consett, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Hi, it’s not an outage problem as it’s been like this for months and months

  • Zasaic1 Zasaic (@Zasaic1) reported

    @virginmedia It's regarding broadband. I don't have a connection to my residence yet a bill is being generated and you all are forcing me to pay. The last correspondence from virgin is that they will send a debt recovery agent... which will affect my credit I have not had any service from you

  • Dominiho7 Dominic Hanley (@Dominiho7) reported

    Out done yourselves here @virginmedia scheduling an update for my internet box at 10:30am, meaning my entire internet now not working and we’re all working from home... marvellous. Last month or so the internet connection be awful.

  • stevegsimpson Steve Simpson (@stevegsimpson) reported

    @superdog1984 @virginmedia Ours has been crap for ages, ended up having to buy one of those signal boosters, still not great.

  • nigomurr93 Nicola (@nigomurr93) reported

    @sohear @virginmedia Same man. Awful

  • Ireallyamcam Cameron Ward (@Ireallyamcam) reported

    @virginmedia You’ve replied to 2/4, which makes me think you’ve not even read all of the points about our issue... That is poor. & you are suggesting I call the same number that cut me off multiple times and sent me around in circles for over 3 hours yesterday. You have not been helpful.

  • ciki_mac Ciki Mac (@ciki_mac) reported

    @virginmedia is quite literally THEEEE worst #broadband service I have ever used 😩 Wish I could get @EE in my area. They were amazing. Never had any issues when I was with them for two years 💔

  • CGENGUK Colin (@CGENGUK) reported

    @Nicklesby @virginmedia I'd say I am but I don't like complaining when it's tax payers money. But I'm starting to. (I put 67 coz I forgot we got paid so much more than that 😜) Correct their is little support, plus a danger they start meddling if you seek it. Not tried income support as yet.

  • DJPhillyO Phil O'Neill (@DJPhillyO) reported

    @virginmedia So 4G data down again in the IG10 area. constantly getting drop outs. Call 150 about mobile data and slow broadband speeds only to finally get put through to someone on a horrendous bad line and sounds like his a million miles from the microphone #issuenotresolved

  • LeilaWhitworth Leila Whitworth (@LeilaWhitworth) reported

    @virginmedia Why don’t you discontinue it? That’s down to you.

  • astrofizzikz Knock knock... (@astrofizzikz) reported

    @virginmedia No Ethernet connections. I always have been using wireless connections and it’s never been a problem
