    @virginmedia It's not a problem at my end, and it's not just me affected. Have you really not noticed a flurry of people saying the same thing? I know people in different areas of the UK who have the same problems at the same times.

    @_MMaritima @virginmedia Wired speed test would be to isolate between a wireless problem or the connection in. Router might be shielded which would kill signal. Make sure other electronics aren't too close. I can ruin my wireless if I put router on top of my TiVo box

  • NETheatreGuide
    NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Ryton, England

    @virginmedia You offer the same package to new customers at nearly £20 cheaper so it isn't the lowest price possible, is it? Spoke 18 months ago about signal. Was told it would be looked at if I agreed to renew. Once renewed was told WiFi is not guaranteed so tough.

  • StevieWalls
    Steve Walls (@StevieWalls) reported 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 Hi spoke to Customer services was told IT would get email sent out to me. 3 days later still no email to verify my email address so I can log into my online account.

    @virginmedia checked your outage tracker and says all services good on the area. Been without internet for nearly an hour. What is going on?

  • PaulCraig24
    Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia She has tried but every time they say they can’t help if she hasn’t got her password! Can I chat to someone about this as there are personal issues. I understand that this may be difficult as it is not my account. Thanks

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

    @virginmedia Yes, it’s the email address that Virgin gave them for setting up the o2 mobile account. I spoke to o2 this morning and they’re having trouble changing it or even sending a text to us for security purposes to the number we are porting because that is now inactive.

  • Carl_Walsh33

    @virginmedia I look forward to the money off the bill for the issues.

    @virginmedia sorry for the late reply I smashed my phone I phoned customer service and I'm still waiting for someone to phone me iv had NO TV for about 15 days now

  • Stevedey
    Steve Dey (@Stevedey) reported from Newburn, England

    @GingesLife @virginmedia Honestly mate it’s a joke! Just paid the bill yesterday and now the cheeky buggers can’t even provide the service they charge us so much for.

    @virginmedia No help needed, thanks - just praising the deal I was given last night 🙌

  • tenchylad
    Stu (@tenchylad) reported from Sunderland, England

    @OliverStanding @virginmedia It's not a great self serve option and poor customer experience. I have an issue trying to remove a service from my current package. Cant be done digitally or remotely. Only via phone which even then very few of the advisors have the levels of authority to amend your package.

  • geemiller71
    Gareth Miller (@geemiller71) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Dont wanna air my business over a feed. Asvised phone we got was outa stock. Faulty phone . Was gonna exchange bit out of stock.i had to cancel contract then take a new one out. But send phone back but wife hasnt a spare???

  • 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.

    @DeviateDefiant @MoneySupermkt Welcome to Virgin Media, in this house was the same been with them since NTL days and still had better deals for new customers over there loyal paying customers so we switched to Sky. i have to say from my experience had 0 issues.

  • littlechappers
    Mr chappers (@littlechappers) reported

    @virginmedia unfortunately I'm leaving you because of the cost of the service was going up to £69 per month but a new customer can get the same package for £24 per month, my disconnection was yesterday Mon 20th July but you still haven't switched it off .

  • Jamaal162

    @jonoread @ajzxne They knew owned and run by the same company.. virgin media 02… literally just a subsidiary branded to capture a different market ie the ones who are smart enough to not pay 3 to 4x the amount for the same service

  • ShhrMor
    Shahar Mor (@ShhrMor) reported

    @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia TBH, I'm not sure what POM wants. Would he rather the ref penalized the Irish for these "minor" breakdown infringements? His "coaching" actually helped Ireland slow the ball down without being penalized. Not to mention at least 3 yellows that were not given to them...

    @virginmedia when are you going to fix the broadband issue in ub9 6be? It’s been dreadful since Monday 20th July

  • toffeeman112
    Steve Hannant (@toffeeman112) reported

    @trapdoor456 @virginmedia I’ve been with Youfibre 3 years… Speeds and reliability are great…. However if you do hit a problem Customer Service is woeful and stressful. Fortunately the reliability means you don’t need to contact them very often !!!
