  • lintoniosmythe Iinton Smith (@lintoniosmythe) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @virginmedia your call centre is an absolute joke. No one deals with problems and just transfers to a different department who hang up

  • ScottN1504 Scott Noble (@ScottN1504) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Has anyone ever sent anything back to virgin media before? Need some help if possible

  • 40yearsofhurt JOP (@40yearsofhurt) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Magpie24_7 Fitness levels of Virgin Media are poor.

  • HelenEmbleton1 Helen Embleton (@HelenEmbleton1) reported from Leadgate, England

    @virginmedia Your customer services

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

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

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

    @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.

  • 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

  • NETheatreGuide NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported 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.

  • 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.

  • clairekitty12 claire🐱🐾🐾 (@clairekitty12) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia I would like to know how my broadband and tv are still broken after the outage ? It saying theres a connection issue on both broadband and tv . Tv error c139 ...i dont understand why my fault cant be logged as the origanal not being fixed

  • NevilleLishman Neville Lishman (@NevilleLishman) reported from Durham, England

    5 hrs now. Just rude @virginmedia just rude. Clearly little of your astronomically charges is spent on your customer service department. It's a recruitment Sargent for @skytv

  • vitosauras 🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    **** off Virgin Media, useless bollocks

  • liamsholder91 liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia why is phone network not working and plus can't phone people or text tryed restarting phone still. Nothing can't even ring you guys WTAF

  • vitosauras 🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    @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.

  • vitosauras 🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    You lot need to sort yourselves out, Internet going down around midnight for the past few days yet you charge the earth @virginmedia

  • clairekitty12 claire🐱🐾🐾 (@clairekitty12) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia I did the online thing before contacting u it says needs a tech . But it doesnt it needs your outage fixed .

  • pauljacques83 Paul Jacques (@pauljacques83) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Been in my new house 13 day and for the third time tomorrow I have a @virginmedia technician coming out to 'fix' my wifi. Fingers crossed this one actually takes and it's third time's the charm

  • mickeywhizz Michael Taylor (@mickeywhizz) reported from Newburn, England

    @markcatchlove @virginmedia Pleased it’s not just me Mark. It really pee’s me off the contempt with which they treat their existing, loyal customers, some of whom have remained loyal since the days when they were Telewest. #newcustomersonly

  • RobbyRSSRobot Robby #CelebrateNeighbours (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Any idea when my service will be back? Hub is flashing green. I'm working from home so need it urgently.

  • eddharrison Ed Harrison (@eddharrison) reported

    the only thing worse than my @virginmedia internet service is the VM customer service. Hosting a webinar off my mobile hotspot rather than the 120mb we have is a joke.

  • jennyreyn Jen ♠️ (@jennyreyn) reported

    @virginmedia Are your engineers supposed to "leave for lunch" in the middle of a fault service visit?

  • Mr_B_solihull ChrisB (@Mr_B_solihull) reported

    @virginmedia internet speed has been 30mb the past week when it’s supposed to be 300mb. Are there issues in my area? A week seems a long time!

  • jordanjallsop yup (@jordanjallsop) reported

    @virginmedia So after being on the phone for 35mins with an extremely rude employee, she then hangs up instead of passing me to a manager. Can someone message me before i make this a complaint as this is awful customer service.

  • shannon_snell Shannon Snell (@shannon_snell) reported

    @virginmedia I'm having trouble logging in to my email account. I keep receiving the message 'Your mailbox is not available at the moment.' Is the system down or is this just a problem with my account?

  • CliveGowing Clive Gowing (@CliveGowing) reported

    @virginmedia Can you provide a time of when I will get an update? 23 days and waiting is a bit rude!

  • 118Carlo Carlo (@118Carlo) reported

    @RachelBull10 @virginmedia You’ve never been a @VodafoneUK customer am guessing ?

  • NW5Gooner NW5 Gooner (@NW5Gooner) reported

    @virginmedia no TV or broadband in NW5? I suppose its the usual "there is problem in your area" 🙄

  • LeeUHF Lee UHF (@LeeUHF) reported

    @virginmedia I left virgin media recently and my new provider is going to pay my disconnection fee. The problem is my bill you have sent me shows the fee as "Other" instead of giving me the correct info. Can you advise where find proof that the fee you have sent is a disconnect

  • LynseyEAnderson lynsey a (@LynseyEAnderson) reported
