  Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported 45 seconds ago from Sunderland, England

  @virginmedia Yes spoke to a member of the team, we have been having issues with our wifi. She offered to send another booster & cable out free off charge. Available on our contract. I’ve just received email to say my payments are going up to £60!!

• 
  Keith Dawson (@KeithRwc) reported 3 minutes ago from Washington, England

  Looks like @virginmedia are again trying to take Netflix payment that should already be included in my Volt. This is disgusting behaviour having already spoke to them previously!! Anyone else having similar issues?

• 
  Steve Walls (@StevieWalls) reported 3 minutes ago from Chester-le-Street, England

  “You don’t need to be there, we can do the cable work outside no problem” That translated into a card through the door saying “Sorry we missed you” and the work not being done. Don’t really understand that one @virginmedia

  @jmstocka @virginmedia Has to be the worst app going. It regularly says this to me despite the 47 step verification

  Dowlo (@dowlo100) reported 17 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  @virginmedia my elderly mother has been trying to contact you for over 3 weeks now to cancel her sub as it has gone up £60 pm. She has been out on hold numerous times and cut off no help on chat etc. her only option now is to cancel the DD as she can’t afford this anymore… help

  Sam (@purplelime) reported 22 minutes ago from South Shields, England

• 
  Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported 25 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  Hello @BarclaysUK, phoned you for ten successive days and it’s an hour long queue, been into branch, you can’t sort the issue, tried chat via the app, you don’t talk mortgages on the app. You are beginning to reach peak Virgin Media for incompetence, I’m sorry, this is appalling.

  David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported 27 minutes ago from Blaydon-on-Tyne, England

  @virginmedia I don’t understand where you can see my personal information, it merely gives you, what broadband package I’m on what telephone service I’m on and watch TV service sign there are no account details whatsoever

  LadyDi (@didixon74) reported 30 minutes ago from Blyth, England

  @virginmedia In October agreed new contract, came to install last week got new router and have since cancelled the packages that was agreed. I am now been charged more and getting less services. Tried to resolve last week over the phone & not no further forward so just want to cancel now.

  liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported 30 minutes ago from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  @virginmedia I'm definitely filein complaint 15 days without no TV and 2 kids is really hard work its either that or I'll go with someone else

• 
  Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported 37 minutes ago from South Shields, England

  @virginmedia She has tried but every time they say they can’t help if she hasn’t got her password! Can I chat to someone about this as there are personal issues. I understand that this may be difficult as it is not my account. Thanks

• 
  NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported 38 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.

• 
  Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported 43 minutes ago from South Shields, England

  @virginmedia The Hub is in modem mode connected to a separate wireless router as the Hub's WiFi has been poor since we got it, so technically it's a wired connection. Router's connection is lost when it drops so no devices can connect wirelessly. Has been stable for about 3 hours now.

• 
  Hilly Marshall (@hylt64) reported 46 minutes ago from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  @virginmedia The issue is I’m trying to cancel my services but I see how you keep customers as nobody will answer the phone to do this hence the reason nobody can leave I’ve now been on hold 1hr 14mins which is totally unacceptable

  Georgina McGowan (@seldomseenkid16) reported 50 minutes ago from Gateshead, England

  @virginmedia can you help with my phone services not currently working

• 
  Craig Smart 💙 (@CraigSmartUN) reported 51 minutes ago from Gateshead, England

  @virginmedia trying to set up online account ready for install on Wednesday, verification email expired. Clicking send new email but no email is being sent so can’t verify email. Please help!

• 
  Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported 55 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  @virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.

  @virginmedia local outage again, is this a common thing with Virgin? It’s happened 3 times since we joined, I can’t work or study, do customers of other providers get this too?

•

• 
  Karen B 🌹🇪🇺 🇺🇦💜🤍💚KarenB@KBGreyhoundLady (@KBGreyhoundlady) reported 10 minutes ago

  @virginmedia E mails crashed out 2 days ago. OH rang & eventually spoke to a human. Apparently it’s a widespread problem. We need the emails. This is shoddy service. When is it going to be fixed. Not good enough

• 
  THE Rev. Quantum Bigfoot ♿️ #FLTG OG Anti-RGB OAP (@RevQntmBigfoot) reported 12 minutes ago

  Looks like Virgin Media/O2 have had a security breach or someone from within the company is selling customer information Just had several attempts to access my O2 account (using address that has only been used/given to O2) & a load of SPAM to same address Roll on November⏳

• 
  Dr Amir Hamid (@DrAmirHamid) reported 12 minutes ago

  @virginmedia 2nd time in a month there has been a disruption in broadband. Poor

• 
  Helen Brown (@helen_brown65) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia please sort out the broadband issue in CT17 9NB. Absolutely unacceptable service. Will be changing providers if not fixed by this afternoon !!!

• 
  Sinbinnin (@sinbinnin) reported 15 minutes ago

  @virginmedia We have had no TV in L22 since Saturday 11th July, outage checker has shown fix time this afternoon - just received a text to say engineer on the way, fix time now tomorrow. This is a bit more than rubbish, how do I claim compensation? (I thought it was automatic)
