    @virginmedia hi a few folks on our street keep experiencing drop outs of WiFi signal in the middle of the working week, a few of them have made contact with you but no issues are being found, and you don’t seem to be able to help? but there is clearly an issue?

  • MarkCarruthers_ Mark Carruthers (@MarkCarruthers_) reported from Wallsend, England

    What an absolute farce @virginmedia are. Pay a ridiculous amount each month for slow broadband that regularly doesn’t work. Now on to a second day with no service and TiVo is also down. Pathetic.

  • JeffsW0rld Jeff’s World (@JeffsW0rld) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Please sort your complaints team out.... I’ve been promised a resolution numerous times over the last few months and still nothing. what a complete embarrassment they are.

  • Lucy__Hedley Lucy Hedley (@Lucy__Hedley) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I was told that I would be called back by a manager #lies Now due to further incompetence you have cut off my Internet & phone service. Claiming that I haven't paid a bill when there's a direct debit set up! #diabolical service. I've never been treated so poorly.

  • DavidField1987 David Field CBCI (@DavidField1987) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I have had a house move booked for 2 weeks (planned for tomorrow) yet once again you have disconnected my services early at my current address. I’m working from home and your error has once again impacted me and now going to spend my morning again trying to fix!

  • scotty8461 Bob Scott (@scotty8461) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia Technical support to discuss slow speeds

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Wish virginmedia could do something about all the scam calls, I am an virginmedia customer and we are receiving. Had about 30 scam calls just this last week.

  • ghtrainer Gareth Trainer (@ghtrainer) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for reply. Problem was that no agent ever responded to move requests via the bot. I sat for 1hr on the phone last night and finally got it booked. If the bot had worked 1st time I’d be switched on when I move. Now I’ll be without service for a week. Not good when wfh!

  • SafcJamieG Jamie (@SafcJamieG) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia They raised a complaint and nothing was done about it, they probably didn’t even listen to the call where I was sold the product, if they did it would have been dealt with

  • Mal_Area Malcolm Sinyard (@Mal_Area) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Your having a laugh my download speed is 0.03 mbs and its still crap!!!!

  • panicdragon8784 Panicdragon8784 (@panicdragon8784) reported from South Shields, England

    @BBCRedButton I don't think your red button service is working on @virginmedia. It's brings up the iPlayer but no live stuff like the springwatch webcams

  • alicen0rt0n alice✨ (@alicen0rt0n) reported from Washington, England

    THE WORST customer service @virginmedia, should be ashamed of treating loyal customers the way a member of staff has just spoken to my mam

  • MJGray1963 Michael Gray 💙 (@MJGray1963) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia can you explain to me why you tell blatant lies in response to a complaint

  • mandax_xx Raman Kumar (@mandax_xx) reported

    . @virginmedia I have also raised ticket where person assumed me calling on customer have resolved and terminated the account. This a very painful and unprofessional behaviour from private like yourself (2 or 3)

  • ez_jokka Laughing Armadillo (@ez_jokka) reported

    @virginmedia Can someone DM me a proper email address? Or a free phone number. I'm afraid I don't trust Virgin to reimburse me. I can't afford to spend anymore money on this. Do I need a new hub? Surely you've seen other people having similar issues today

  • consradftw Connor Christie (@consradftw) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks. Need to cancel my account as I’m leaving the country and out of this property by 12/05/21

  • MrBiggerexia Mossy (@MrBiggerexia) reported

    @virginmedia It’s not really good enough to wait 28days to be contacted over a broadband issue which I pay for is costing my wife earning money 😡

  • MrFrostMaths Mark Frost (@MrFrostMaths) reported

    @virginmedia not been able to make or receive calls this morning. Not useful when I’m in the process of buying and selling my house and need to contact the estate agents. Also my daughter is with her grandparents and I can’t ring them. Please help

    @virginmedia I'm also still owed £5 from when I closed my account over a month ago. This wasn't a complaint, just what was due to me when we closed the account...
