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.

Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia Nothing reported when I checked before tweeting. Seems to have stabilised for now but must've dropped 15-20 times in the last 48h. No faults were reported on the site when my father-in-law had a complete loss of service a couple of months ago, but it was reported on the helpline.
-
Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported 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.
-
Ceeb 🏴🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England@bt_uk you have 45 mins to meet the 10-12 appointment. That I took the day off for. Defo looks like I'm going to be a @virginmedia customer soon.
-
LadyDi (@didixon74) reported 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.
-
Stu (@tenchylad) reported 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
-
Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England1 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.
-
Jamie Davison (@jamie_davison1) reported from Seaham, EnglandMy wifi and 4g at home is absolutely garbage, sort your **** out @virginmedia
-
Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia Lots of people are complaining about this on the customer forums. We've had very little downtime since the separate router was connected, it's suddenly gone to pot and seems to be a general issue at the moment.

Hilly Marshall (@hylt64) reported 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

Mr. Cold (@Javier_Cold_) reported@virginmedia JAJAJAJAJA that must be a joke. In the complaint, your colleagues said they will train the staff better HAHAHA Train better to make it less noticeable. It is a shame how @virginmedia went from a great supplier to a pathetic one.
