  Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported 4 minutes ago from South Shields, England

  @gotthegistofit @virginmedia Same, just spent a frustrating hour on their "customer service" line because about £40 of calls are on my father-in-law's bill which weren't made. Still not resolved and an engineer has to come our first (which they wanted to charge for!)

  Sam (@purplelime) reported 4 minutes ago from South Shields, England

  @virginmedia I was told to log into the Myo2 app to change it myself, but I have been sent no login details and of course if the email address is incorrect it won’t be recognised if I try to register. O2 said we would receive texts with updates on number port timeline but had no communication

  @virginmedia The signal struggles to get to each room in the house. My son complains as he games. No chance of streaming music in the bathroom. It isn't a big house either. The deal I'm on currently was negotiated when I spoke to disconnection team rather than intro offer.

  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?

  Fraser Porter (@TheFraserPorter) reported 30 minutes ago from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  @virginmedia twice in 2 months that my hub 5 has completely gone down with a flashing red light and won’t work, I’ve had to book a technician for it both times. Costs too much for this to keep happening!

  Jamie Davison (@jamie_davison1) reported 33 minutes ago from Seaham, England

  My wifi and 4g at home is absolutely garbage, sort your **** out @virginmedia

  Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported 38 minutes ago from Shiremoor, England

  @virginmedia disgusting slow speeds AGAIN in NE27 Cant wait for my contract end

• 
  Sam (@purplelime) reported 38 minutes ago from South Shields, England

  @virginmedia I didn’t get the opportunity to call yesterday, but I noticed last night that it’s working again. There was nothing mentioned on service page (not unusual) but there must’ve been a fault that was eventually fixed.

  Dawn knight (@Dawnletsfaceit) reported 42 minutes ago from Consett, England

  @virginmedia new customer ...2 engineer No Shows !! Not a great start. Try again for Wednesday. Let's hope they show this time. In the meantime please stop sending me emails to get me up and running.....that's the whole reason I need an engineer 😡

  Steph. (@stephwales_) reported 45 minutes ago from Gateshead, England

  A week of no issues after a month of next to no tv and now it starts all over again. I have sound and the guide but just a black screen on every channel. So glad my contract is up, deffo going to be leaving this time. Waste of time and money!!!!! @virginmedia

• 
  Steph. (@stephwales_) reported 48 minutes ago 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 50 minutes ago 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.

  LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported 51 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  @virginmedia All on screen instructions followed, waited til I finished work today to check and it still doesn't get past 25% on the "searching for channels" page... Just taken the direct debit for a service which has been broken since 2.12.21...

• 
  NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported 53 minutes ago from Walker Gate, England

  Time for the @virginmedia renewal. They want to hike the price. We want a new reliable WiFi box which they promised but didn't deliver last time. To be honest @BT is looking attractive as they may improve the signal around the house.

• 
  Sarah (@Rainbowztwit) reported 54 minutes ago from Whitley Bay, England

  .@virginmedia Broadband down - phone line states because of 'improvements'- not expected back until 3pm. Why was there no notice so I could arrange to work from alternate location? How do I get warning in future?

• 
  Carl Walsh (@Carl_Walsh33) reported 58 minutes ago from Wallsend, England

  @virginmedia Just realised this is the first post in a year!! Had your broadband gone down?

• 
  Steve Walls (@StevieWalls) reported 59 minutes ago from Chester-le-Street, England

  “You don’t need to be there, we can do the cable work outside no problem” That translated into a card through the door saying “Sorry we missed you” and the work not being done. Don’t really understand that one @virginmedia

  @virginmedia your internet is a joke, for the past 2 days I’ve had intermittent internet where it drops out for no apparent reason. It’s effected me working from home & tonight has mean I’ve missed 3 goals in the France c Senegal game. Your app says no issues but clearly there is

  @virginmedia Since your O2 merger, your website has been absolute dogshite. Can't view bill, can't cancel, nothing loads etc. Nice work!

  Nicholas (@Nichola09215766) reported 24 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Are you able to contact the staff that used to work on them because I have a long running complaint and despite forum staff having access to info nobody at 150 can help and apparently the ONLY time my problem got identified and fixed nobody can find except for forum staff.

  @virginmedia My email account has been locked since last Thursday 11 June. I am an award winning journalist. This has totally disrupted my work. Your customer services raised a ticket P0136 01850 on Saturday to get it unlocked. Nothing has been done. Over to you.
