    @virginmedia Continual issues with the credit agreement email not arriving (and yes I checked junk!) It took a webchat and 3 calls to get anywhere near resolving this. Had my dad in his 70s in tears at the stress. I do have to say after almost 2hrs on the phone today we finally 1/

  • KeithRwc
    Keith Dawson (@KeithRwc) reported 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?

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

  • PaulCraig24
    Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported 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

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

    @virginmedia can you let me know if are there any problems with landline in the NE34 area? Can’t make or receive calls, not sure how long it’s been this way. Your status page says all services are fine. Thanks.

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

    @virginmedia @VMHelpDesk Internet connection is intermittent in NE34, has been since at least Saturday. Connection drops at random. Have just restarted router again as I'm working from home & need to be online, no idea how long this will last. Not the only one having issues.

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

    1 whole week without any @virginmedia, months of signal issues. Engineer has gone out of his way but having to continually wait. Hopefully the engineer booked for tomorrow turns up and replaces my now faulty equipment.

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

    Why can't @virginmedia ever just be straight forward? Absolute joke. Problem after problem.

  • dowlo100
    Dowlo (@dowlo100) reported 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

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

    @virginmedia everything else is working except kids channels 712 to 717, W02 error. No other channel issues or broadband, done all the standard resets, unplugged at mains etc. Do I need to call to have this resolved? TV guide just says 'to be announced' Everything else is fine.

  • Look_North
    Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported 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.

  • didixon74
    LadyDi (@didixon74) reported from Ryton, England

    @virginmedia I have a problem with my red button not working for sky sports football not working, how can I get this issue resolved please

  • scotty8461
    Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia more disgustingly slow speeds in NE27

  • maxinetennet74
    Maxine Tennet (@maxinetennet74) reported from Walker Gate, England

    What will it take for @virginmedia to actually sort out an account after a bereavement??? 3 months later, endless calls and empty promises. Continued anxiety and distress for an elderly woman is not the bereavement service I’d expect. Appalling.

    @keithapearson @virginmedia Customer service is something that exists before you sign up, not after.

    @virginmedia your days are actually numbered,how can it be a week of Terrible Wi-Fi

  • Lulette5772
    C B (@Lulette5772) reported

    @virginmedia why is your app so useless, can’t do anything with it as any actions takes you to chat. You’re forced to chat/call VM for everything. My contract is ending, so had to call VM, a torturous experience. After 30minutes on hold achieved basically nothing. It’s so poor

  • marypaul32
    mary32 (@marypaul32) reported

    @nightsong53 @virginmedia Definitely deliberate. Customer service simply does not exist anymore.

    @virginmedia Hi no actually because I am fed up sending messages, customer service is awful, retentions is awful and as for complaints well that's diabolical.

    Louise Boxall (@Louiseboxall) reported

    @virginmedia M43 area…. error code W02…. Did what virgin suggested and just blank channels….. this is getting ridiculous….. can’t watch tv when I’m sure Virgin will want payment for a service my parents can’t access half the month….
