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

    @virginmedia what's going on still nothing no data no phone service nothing sort it out

  • hylt64 Hilly Marshall (@hylt64) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia The issue is I’m trying to cancel my services but I see how you keep customers as nobody will answer the phone to do this hence the reason nobody can leave I’ve now been on hold 1hr 14mins which is totally unacceptable

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

    1 whole week without any @virginmedia, months of signal issues. Engineer has gone out of his way but having to continually wait. Hopefully the engineer booked for tomorrow turns up and replaces my now faulty equipment.

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

    @virginmedia That was the original issue, the main thing outside was flooded and corroded (affecting 6 customers in street), so the network team I think came and fixed that, we've had 1 week of working service until today.

  • RobLow_7 W. W. L. D. ? He'd stay at home. (@RobLow_7) reported from Sacriston, England

    @OffMyNoodles @virginmedia Many years ago, the way @virginmedia treated me, I vowed never to have anything to do with them from that day. Never have done, never will do.

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

  • Ne31phil Phil Robinson (@Ne31phil) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia please advise Reduced mobile signal in the NE31 area. The signals were fine until a couple of months ago. previously had 4g I now mainly get E or sometimes 3G this is an issue due to my elderly mother-in-law being in hospital and now very poor signal in their home

  • stephwales_ Steph. (@stephwales_) reported 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

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

    @virginmedia wifi speed is disgustingly slow in NE 27

  • geemiller71 Gareth Miller 🇺🇦 (@geemiller71) reported from Washington, England

    @ee no signal on 5g in @IcelandFoods wife 4g on @virginmedia full signal.

  • Chickawacka Phil Byrne (@Chickawacka) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia why am I having daily and sometimes multiple outages with your broadband service? Checked service status which always says everything is fine. It's so fine I need to switch off WiFi on my devices and use 4G. Thoughts welcome.

  • liamsholder91 🇺🇦liam sholder #ISTANDWITHUKRAINE🇺🇦 (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia why is my internet not working ne4 8qh please sort it 🙏

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

    @virginmedia 2 technicians over a week period, 4 visits. TV back on but Internet on and off now. Will be ringing Sky tomorrow and also your cancellation team. Clearly this is my service from now on.

  • Dave_is_Elvis David (@Dave_is_Elvis) reported from Boldon Colliery, England

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

  • stephwales_ Steph. (@stephwales_) reported 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.

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

    @virginmedia more disgustingly slow speeds in NE27

  • pumbingchap Cameron Ross (@pumbingchap) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Well that was a pointless exercise reaching out to yourselves. Just proves once again what a load of rubbish Virgin is…. #virginmedia #garbage #dailymirror

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

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

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

    @virginmedia Excuses excuses but no resolution how long will it take 2 days since incident raised and waiting for contact back as instructed why would I waste my day calling incompetent people when someone is trying allegedly to sort it Same old crap customer service

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

  • RebeccastarrO OnlyFans ✨ Thatblondeprincess (@RebeccastarrO) reported

    @virginmedia My Internet is COMPLETELY down for the 4th time in a month. OL16 area. Your service is worse than bloody talk talks. Internet speeds are also going downhill lately. ******* disgraceful company. I've no idea how you can take hardworking peoples money for such a shoddy service.

  • Maria_Wilder Miss Wilder (@Maria_Wilder) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia I did. 3 calls to be precise. There seems to be a tech issue on your end which keeps hanging up on callers....I can't afford to lose any more hours, so I've resorted to writing a letter instead. Thanks.

  • ianrmal ian64 (@ianrmal) reported

    @novahob @davidball74 @virginmedia Same here in all the years I've been with VM I've only had 2 major problems and my download speeds have always been near and more often more than I pay for

  • Ellpeegram Michael Phillips (@Ellpeegram) reported

    @virginmedia Can’t login to my online account, won’t recognise my username or password. I’d appreciate if someone called me. THIS IS MORE THAN FRUSTRATING, haven’t had a functioning line/network since Thursday, I’ve spent £35 calling that expensive number from other lines

  • vkhokhrai Vin Khokhrai (@vkhokhrai) reported

    @virginmedia My network keeps dropping. My boosters dont seem to be doing much. Im getting like 5mbps speeds when running the tests where i am located. I keep getting disconnected from my main wifi ssid and it keeps connecting me to guest. 1/2

  • Ellpeegram Michael Phillips (@Ellpeegram) reported

    @virginmedia You have not been able to help me in anyway. THE ONLINE ACCOUNT LOGIN & CREATION user journey IS ASKING FOR AREA NUMBER AND I DOnt KNOW WHAT THAT IS, I’m a mobile customer, not home phone. This is terrible service from @virginmedia

  • chloelizbailey chloe bailey (@chloelizbailey) reported

    @virginmedia So an issue has been logged now. It’s saying fix at 9:30pm. How do I claim compensation? As this is down I will have to use my phone as a hot spot which is very costly. I have a wired connection with Virgin so expect my internet to be running at all times

  • granitetsc Tim Clark (@granitetsc) reported

    @virginmedia There’s apparently an issue with broadband in KT20 - However, I can’t seem to register the loss of service or get the status updates to my phone via the site - can you help with that ?

  • _SteveBotham ⭐️Steve Botham (@_SteveBotham) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry about this. I am slowed down as I have found that Sky owns Now and Now advertises during the Farage show on GB News. I cannot use a firm which directly supports arguments against the RNLI and by implication supports the drowning of refugees.

  • laverpau Paul Laver (@laverpau) reported

    @virginmedia total outage in AL5, was this planned, nice of you to let us know?
