  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia it's a shame I don't have a #timestone so I could go back and never get a service with you #stealingcustomersmoney

  • Russell_Kain Russell Kain (@Russell_Kain) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Hey its been like this for a while. I have the power socket scheduled to restart every night, but it isn't helping. Ive also reset to factory settings numerous times as well as try different wireless channels. WiFi is only part of the problem though as the issue exists on cable

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

    @virginmedia just had a very frustrating afternoon with your call centre trying to dump our landline which we never use. After 13 years as a customer it is particularly galling to then see on the comparison sites how much more you value new customers.

  • Janthebestmam Janice (@Janthebestmam) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia i tried google and doesnt work.

  • stevemhh Steve Mayne (@stevemhh) reported from Gateshead, England

  • ll370 IanBurns (@ll370) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia 2 weeks back with you and my signal keeps dropping almost every single day, best internet provider. I think I have grounds to terminate my contract. What a joke

  • MrPaulDH Paul Humphreys (@MrPaulDH) reported from Washington, England

    @virginmedia waiting waiting on the phone no internet at all now your Auto mated checking service says a problem need to speak to your CS. Waiting waiting 30 minutes now

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

    @markcatchlove @virginmedia Very much doubt it Mark; like I say- they have the market sewn up so can treat their existing customers with contempt.

  • mightymagpie99 mightymagpie99 (@mightymagpie99) reported from Newburn, England

    @damieng5 @garethmck1987 @virginmedia @NETGEAR I agree. I have the same set up . With Virgin SH3 no wifi signal to conservatory. With Orbi mesh network wifi everywhere in house & in the garden too. Costs a bit more but woryh it IMO.

  • Janthebestmam Janice (@Janthebestmam) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia no just have to put password and email address in. The green tick appear then keeps saying sign in

  • bigpinkdressgnr BIG PINK DRESS (@bigpinkdressgnr) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Your customer service was the worst ever One guy actually shouted at us Your TV never worked your internet went off at night We constantly had to reboot All while paying you a small fortune So no we won't be returning

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia #virginmediasaga on hold to yourselves again. #youneednewholdmusic. Although I do find it ironic that you play a song with the lyrics 'I'm a sucker for you. The only suckers are the customers like me that can't seem to get issues resolved! #virginmedia #thieves

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

    @virginmedia must be 8pm. Internets down 😂 #clockwork

  • Russell_Kain Russell Kain (@Russell_Kain) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia can you help me with a broadband technical issue. I have 200Mb, power cycle the router daily and still by the end of the day end up with super slow speeds. Less than 1Mb tonight. Thanks.

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    @sky do you resolve customer complaints in less time than the 3 weeks @virginmedia need #imightneedanewprovider #coolingoffperiod #virginmediasaga

  • gemmafisher5 gemma fisher (@gemmafisher5) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia what an absolute #nightmare to #cancel my services because I’m movinghouse my call has been hung up on #twice now #1andahalf hours on the phone and I’m still on #hold 🤬

  • Paulhut20013625 Hutchy (@Paulhut20013625) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk why has my internet speed slowed down just as we @virginmedia digging up the street 🤔

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    So your staff forgot to cancel my service properly and then conveniently raised two new bills rather than giving us the 70 pound you owe us. 2 X managers and not a clue between any of them #virginmedia #thieves #makethecustomerpayforyourmistakea

  • FSVPhotography FSV Photography (@FSVPhotography) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia the Royal baby will have his own baby before you sort my issue out or answer the phone #virginmedia #virginmediasaga

  • hellsbells610 Hells Bells 🐧 (@hellsbells610) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your reply. I think there have been a few problems around where I live, but it seems to be ok now.

  • Christina_Kat_ Christina (@Christina_Kat_) reported

    Congratulations to @virginmedia for being the worst customer service ever, truly shocking well done guys

  • John_Chilvers John Chilvers (@John_Chilvers) reported

    @Ofcom I really think you need to look into how hard it is for customers to cancel their @virginmedia package

  • hughes_you you hughes (@hughes_you) reported

    @virginmedia Evidently Virgin do no engage over Trustpilot as they don’t care about customer feedback. Are you from Virgin or a 3rd party social media management company?

  • Mark80679424 Ma93 (@Mark80679424) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have the app installed, how can this help?

  • allanvrs1888 Allanvrs1888 (@allanvrs1888) reported

    @virginmedia slow clap for Virgin media, refusing to honour an upgrade offered through their own website, after you have accepted it and have a sales order number. Is there wa way to contact a UK customer centre ?

  • Chrisrad85 Raddy (@Chrisrad85) reported

    @virginmedia 7 hours ago and they didn’t check anything outside . The tested inside and said it was fine but why is it not working

  • allanvrs1888 Allanvrs1888 (@allanvrs1888) reported

    @virginmedia currently waiting on retentions now, fantastic customer service offering a customer an upgrade package and price only to then come back and say we can't do it after the customer has accepted.

  • LaffsFor JustForLaffs 🇬🇧 (@LaffsFor) reported

    @virginmedia I need to cancel my services wef end February. I need an email to contact someone regarding this. Please dont suggest web chat or phone - I'm done with messing around with your robots. Please don't just tell me to follow the links on the website - there aren't any.

  • gothic26 Geoff Harris (@gothic26) reported
