    @virginmedia Back up and working again I look forward to the next time your service fails - the worst service I’ve experienced since the demise of dial up internet and party line telephones 👎

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @jeffsprogress @virginmedia And no I can’t match it Virgin Media fails almost every week, we have a whole other level of shit service compared to you 👎

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia So another tonight wasted last night on the phone to all your departments and still no resolution. Still trying to make me pay your staff's mistakes. #virginmediasaga #thieves

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia It was just internet TV that day but today all your services telephone, TV (all channels) and the broadband are repeatedly failing - no idea why I get billed for such poor service I mean the phone FFS do you think it’s 1984!

  • scottilderton Scott Ilderton (@scottilderton) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia on hold for 46 mins so far having select options to cancel. The guy the system put me through to cant do this🙄 So i’m back on hold what horrific service #operationkeepthemallonhold

  • RobbyRSSRobot L🍩ui💲e (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia No sorry I'm meaning the Internet on my virgin mobile phone is slow

  • Clarquey Simon Clark (@Clarquey) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Hi @virginmedia. Trying to call, text, WhatsApp my wife today attempting to sort out our children etc and completely unable to. My contract has just been increased. Pretty shocking service and I'm paying more! I would expect some compensation at the very least 😡 #VirginOutage

  • AL_SNR58 Allan Davis (@AL_SNR58) reported from Sunderland, England

    @lisadunn1978 @virginmedia I have just had hell on and demanded to speak to a manager. At first I was told there was no issue in our area and it was the router then the manager has told me that there is a problem in our area

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @jeffsprogress @virginmedia I changed to Virgin because BT would drop out regularly in the middle of the Moto GP. Used to have a great service with Sky but they charge an extra 30 something quid for BT Sport

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia @jeffsprogress It didn’t work for a day and you think it is a great experience and good service. With that attitude no wonder we get such a shit service

  • RobbyRSSRobot L🍩ui💲e (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    For all the poor sods like me who had nothing but trouble today! #VirginMedia #Virginmediaoutage

  • RobbyRSSRobot L🍩ui💲e (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @anemoneproject @virginmedia @virgeinmedia The account is suspended now. I'm going to guess a disgruntled customer!

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    Looks like @virginmedia are just as rubbish as @BTtv their rubbish service has been failing all night making watching catchup TV a right pain looks like I need another provider

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I am sick of contacting yourselves regarding it. Your company does not seem to know which department I need to speak to. One minute It's customer care, then movers, then disconnections, who pass me back to customer care. #notaclue #virginmediasaga

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia And our Virgin TV has failed again your service truly is shite and a waste of my money looks like we are left with terrestrial TV through our always reliable tv aerial again you should be deeply ashamed of your outrageously poor service 👎

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia I have the App but having it confirm what I already know is no help whatsoever. Instead of investing in Apps that confirm your service is not fit for purpose why not invest in providing an unfailing service to customers. Currently you take money for services you can’t deliver

  • AllinsonsPhoto AllinsonsPhotography (@AllinsonsPhoto) reported from Gateshead, England

    @jeffsprogress @virginmedia I didn’t miss your point I just do t agree with it - if we pay for service everyday it should work every single day. I do not consider any failure to be a good service

  • gordysocceruk gordon (@gordysocceruk) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia How long is this outage going to last been off for neatly 4 hours.

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia We asked at the time of there was any money outstanding and we were told no. We were never told it takes 30 days to cancel. Again poor service from yourselves. I don't have the complaint number no as your staff keep hanging up

    @virginhelp @wbc247uk @virginmedia I am not a virgin customer and can’t contact you. I need to cancel a monthly phone plan. DD has been stopped. The person using the phone has died. I bought the sim for my dad, he had it for years. I also got a bill for this? Please message me.

  • coopers_left Cooper’s Left Peg (@coopers_left) reported

    @virginmedia Can we reserve the right to cancel contracts because of your price increase?

  • clareybear76 Clare Hayward (@clareybear76) reported

    @virginmedia can you tell me if there’s any problems with your virgin mobile coverage in kent??

  • 77_trigger Delboy (@77_trigger) reported

    @virginmedia hi I have a mobile sim with my virgin tv account. I have paid my bill a couple of hours ago, but there’s still no service. Can you help I called the call centre but it’s closed

  • QuinninDanielle Danielle Quinnin (@QuinninDanielle) reported

    @virginmedia I have called numerous time Friday, Monday Tuesday and today. I only just joined Virgin a month ago and we have had issues with our service. An engineer came out established a problem but it didn’t work so I’ve called again since and I was advised that I’d need to pay for another

  • QuinninDanielle Danielle Quinnin (@QuinninDanielle) reported

    @virginmedia Visit because someone came out and ‘fixed’ the issue… although it’s not fixed as I can’t get on the internet at all. Me and my husband both work from home so have missed out on 5 days work each with these constant issues.

  • gilo_81 Gilo! (@gilo_81) reported

    @Dave_Pitt_Leeds @virginmedia @MoneySavingExp This exactly, Plus there’s continued service issues in my area that means my broadband hangs been going on for over 10 days they said it should be resolved by the 4th April. Appalling service #virginmediacancellationscam

  • auneam1 auneam (@auneam1) reported

    @virginmedia no internet since 7:00 pm. Did a service check saying there is an intermittent issue and to check again in 24 hours. As I work from home, will VM be paying my wages? Getting charged an absolute fortune for incredibly poor service.
