  • justraffers helen rafferty 🌹 (@justraffers) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia every month I have the same issue. Go to pay bill and despite having Google auto password (which works on every other thing I log in) it says my log in is wrong and I have to reset it EVERY MONTH!! EVERY MONTH!! IT'S RIDICULOUS

  • Marilyn_huartt Marilyn malibu (@Marilyn_huartt) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Can’t answer calls ems bouncing back. Wouldn’t it make more sense to just take everyone’s sports package off. Paying £125 per month at this my point my other half is ready to cancel everything when we can.

  • dodgestweet Matt Dodge Donnelly (@dodgestweet) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Hi I text two evenings ago when you told me too, and then received a very generic response about upgrading my package online. I have since text again to say that the problem is with the increase and that I may need to cancel but nothing back yet. Over 6 hours on hold now to you!

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @spookysquidd @virginmedia Do let me know how your customer experience is when the shit hits the fan for you... when you have been a loyal customer for 14 years! 🙌🏼

  • dannyrobbo82 Danny Robinson (@dannyrobbo82) reported from Wallsend, England

    @virginmedia understand that like every other business that you’re short staffed with the pandemic, but the speed of internet recently has been shocking. Website is useless, community help is useless. Don’t want to ring up, yet they’re happy to still take my money every month.

  • Staigmeister Lynsey (@Staigmeister) reported from Newburn, England

    @monsterwba1968 @virginmedia Don’t bother they don’t work either... after 6 months of shit internet I got one... still can’t get WiFi upstairs... and I am not in a mansion!

  • goneinsixtysecs Simon (@goneinsixtysecs) reported from South Shields, England

  • fossdog_ Jake Fossey (@fossdog_) reported from Stanley, England

    @virginmedia Hey, I have some problems with my Hub 3 router, the base light is Yellow instead of White and have some devices not being able to connect, my AndroidTV for example. My power went off today for a few seconds and then this problem started occurring. Please help me!

  • OhThisBloodyPC Oh This Bloody Computer (@OhThisBloodyPC) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. So have many others, according to reports on @Moneybox and @bbcRogueTrader Virgin has had issues for years caused by incompatible databases from companies it bought as it grew. Understandable. But choosing to blame the customers and bully them for money is not acceptable.

  • MGG123123123 Richard (@MGG123123123) reported
