  @_MMaritima @virginmedia I'd say that needs an engineer visit then at least. Probably either a bad connection or a flakey modem. Phone and log it every time it goes off.

  @virginmedia Well that was a pointless exercise reaching out to yourselves. Just proves once again what a load of rubbish Virgin is…. #virginmedia #garbage #dailymirror

  Steph. (@stephwales_) reported 18 minutes ago from Gateshead, England

  @virginmedia 2 technicians over a week period, 4 visits. TV back on but Internet on and off now. Will be ringing Sky tomorrow and also your cancellation team. Clearly this is my service from now on.

• 
  Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported 19 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  @virginmedia Unfortunately not. The issue is she doesn’t receive any communication from Virgin apart from a monthly text with the link to her account. As she has no password etc she can’t access it

  NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported 25 minutes ago from Ryton, England

  @virginmedia You offer the same package to new customers at nearly £20 cheaper so it isn't the lowest price possible, is it? Spoke 18 months ago about signal. Was told it would be looked at if I agreed to renew. Once renewed was told WiFi is not guaranteed so tough.

• 
  Fraser Porter (@TheFraserPorter) reported 31 minutes ago from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  @virginmedia twice in 2 months that my hub 5 has completely gone down with a flashing red light and won’t work, I’ve had to book a technician for it both times. Costs too much for this to keep happening!

• 
  Trid (@TrevorRidley) reported 32 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  @Designer_Ross @SkyHelpTeam @virginmedia Yeah that’s the issue I’ve come across . Slow download speeds but always reported at just above the payment threshold. It’s got worse recently

• 
  David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported 34 minutes ago from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

  @virginmedia I spoke to them the other day they told me that you do not record any time when the broadband drops out only when a customer calls in so please can you get this sorted out thank you

• 
  Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported 38 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  @virginmedia my Mam has been trying to sort her mobile out today. As she can’t remember her password or security answer, she has been unable to access her account to cancel it. Can you let me know what she can do?

• 
  Sam (@purplelime) reported 43 minutes ago from South Shields, England

  @virginmedia I was told to log into the Myo2 app to change it myself, but I have been sent no login details and of course if the email address is incorrect it won’t be recognised if I try to register. O2 said we would receive texts with updates on number port timeline but had no communication

  Adam Appleby (@adamappleby) reported 47 minutes ago from Sunderland, England

  @virginmedia seems your Cs WhatsApp is broken, can anyone one reactivate my WiFi pod?

• 
  Stu (@tenchylad) reported 52 minutes ago from Sunderland, England

  @virginmedia why is your self service so poor please. Unable to resolve the fault that I have on my service for 2 days now. No one to speak to and the website is abhorrent in terms of customer experience and engagement. Endless loop of bad requests within the servers you use too

• 
  Carl Walsh (@Carl_Walsh33) reported 58 minutes ago from Wallsend, England

  @virginmedia I look forward to the money off the bill for the issues.

• 
  Pete Irving (@ZicoPete) reported 60 minutes ago from Sunderland, England

  @virginmedia No, tried 3 times on hold for 20 minutes then cut off by agents without saying a word. After checking other responses I can see this has been the issue either other customers.

  WATCHING THE GAME (@Pass_Move) reported 8 minutes ago

  @virginmedia This company is a complete and utter shambles. Still no Wi-Fi, still no broadband, still no TV, still no one answering phones. No basic information from the company with the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced.

  @virginmedia terrible customer service. I recently joined. Supposed to have netflix included and have no idea how to activate it and swap my current account to it. Was supposed to get an email within 48 hours. It's been a week now and still nothing, even after a phone call

  Jeanette (@missjnyc1) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Spent an hour and half on the phone with your customer care team. They couldn’t tell me why they hadn’t turned up, no way of contacting them. Have booked another slot for tomorrow, the team wouldn’t even read the number I had just given them 2/3
