  • simplyajblog Abbie✨ (@simplyajblog) reported from Dunston, England

    @katiexmiddleton @virginmedia VM is big in my area for internet but the last house I was in could only have TalkTalk. When I moved, I just transferred my address over instead of moving across to VM. The trouble you’ve, and everybody else it seems, had makes me glad I did! I’ve not had an issue with TT once!

  • chrismayes .💙#FBPPR #FBPE You have no authority here johnson (@chrismayes) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Hey @virginmedia #DontFundGBNews or i terminate my contract with you.

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

    @virginmedia your WiFi and service is a disgrace. Constant outage, hopeless WiFi range, unreachable "support". And now you're putting my bill up? Utter joke.

  • chrissielouenid Chrissie (@chrissielouenid) reported from Newburn, England

    @virginmedia poor service strikes again !

  • beyond_vinyl BEYOND VINYL (@beyond_vinyl) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  • Jacq_Critch Jacqueline Critchley (@Jacq_Critch) reported from Longbenton, England

    @virginmedia @Steven_Smith89 I’ve tried reaching out via the telephone number provided on your website, however despite numerous attempts I have failed to speak to anyone & a fault at your end meant that the line went dead yesterday as I got through... why do you make this so difficult? PLEASE HELP 🙏

  • Steven_Smith89 Steven Smith (@Steven_Smith89) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia any chance you can reply since your customer service department have just hung up after waiting an hour to get through. So sick of your terrible customer service hence why i want to leave. #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice #cancellation

  • Steven_Smith89 Steven Smith (@Steven_Smith89) reported from Longbenton, England

    @virginmedia @panzerfaust81 Any chance we can cancel as your customer service team hang up after waiting an hour on hold? Sick of your dreadful service. Please contact me as this is a joke. Need to leave due to moving home and you make it even harder @Ofcom

  • martin_avery Martin Avery (@martin_avery) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia are you having problems with your broadband connections in the NE15 area ?, it’s been rubbish over the last few days

  • Steven_Smith89 Steven Smith (@Steven_Smith89) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Your team still do not answer the phone. Constantly on hold and then they hung up on my partner yesterday when she got through. The box will be left outside the address for you to collect because we have been trying to cancel for a week now and it is a joke. #poorcustomerservice

  • Wilbaharris Paul (@Wilbaharris) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia broadband constantly disconnects, contacting you via phone is a total waste of time. How do I get this issue sorted?

  • john_barrass John Barrass (@john_barrass) reported from Cramlington, England

    @virginmedia why can’t I get through on the phone to cancel my broadband ? I’ve also been in the queue for hours in online Chat, ridiculous customer service

  • iYogaBody Tatiana M Newton (@iYogaBody) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia it’s simply Disgraceful! As @gmail email user I CAN NOT logging into my own account to check my bill- is it even legal?? After 1 hour of ohone convo with @virginmedia agent my problem is not solved and I’m back in the loop 🔁

  • 1slandmonkey Benjamin Spurling (@1slandmonkey) reported from Washington, England

    @virginmedia not impressed with your customer service this week. After days of attempted communication I finally spoke to someone about getting a new phone. They spoke terrible English, were unhelpful and have actually lost you my potential 24month contract.

  • Beardyknave Tommy Rotten (@Beardyknave) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @james_cooney @virginmedia I ended up talking to someone else who gave me the deal I was after straight away, such a **** on. If you're able to do something just do it, I have **** to do.

  • stephwales_ Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England

    Very excellent service from Linzi in the Longbenton call centre today, got my upgrade sorted and we had a good little chat as well whilst she was sorting things. Made me feel a lot better for spending the time I did on hold. @virginmedia

  • HebburnCurly Mark Wilson (@HebburnCurly) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Hi, can I add a telephone line to the broadband package that I already have? Looked on your webpage and it’s all bundles with no option to add anything to the service I already purchase

  • Steven_Smith89 Steven Smith (@Steven_Smith89) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia It has been over a week trying to contact you and it’s impossible. The contract needs to end on 04/03/21. Your service makes things 10x harder than any other provider.
