  • ThunderbirdWPC Tracey Ainsley (@ThunderbirdWPC) reported from Whickham, England

    @virginmedia The person that put me on hold said it looked like there was a problem in our area and tried to put me through to technical help but after music droning on for ages it just stopped. Have given up and watching a dvd instead

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Longhirst, England

    @virginmedia This is so, so bad.

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Longhirst, England

    @crokakaar @virginmedia Try calling them for help if you've got a spare few hours to waste.

  • jameshedges4 James Robert Hedges (@jameshedges4) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I need someone to contact me immediately as I need to make a serious complaint about service. Completely ready to escalate to higher management as this incompetence of this company is a disgrace

  • TaylorBurgen93 Taylor (@TaylorBurgen93) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia your customer service team is about as much use as a chocolate fire guard! Routers not working switch off then back on... it’s broken I can book an engineer for Saturday....

  • trisgallagher Hot Acid Rhythms (@trisgallagher) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Every single day for the last week my router just turns itself off and starts to update or drops out completely. Paying a lot of money for this service and it just isn’t good enough.

  • ktowers74 Karen Towers (@ktowers74) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia my internet isn't working in NE25, are you having issues in this area 😥

  • Selwynsaint Selwyn St.Bernard🇹🇹🇬🇩 (@Selwynsaint) reported from Longbenton, England

    If @virginmedia offer you a 6 month free upgrade do not accept it. It is a way of locking you into a further contract. Poor service as always

  • NuttyRichie Richard Payne (@NuttyRichie) reported from South Shields, England

    @MrChrisWynn @Simon21ne @virginmedia @nowtvhelp @SkyHelpTeam I managed one week before cancelling! Sky says I have so many devices that it’s slowing the hub down, in 2019 that’s piss poor

  • brtoon Brian Reid (@brtoon) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia @honestlyhelen I've had similar feelings, my bill has rocketed by £11 per month over the last few months for my TV only service as Virgin only offer discounts now for multi package deals, loyalty no longer rewarded it seems 🤔

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Worst customer service from any broadband company. Avoid like the plague.

  • RockcliffeFiles Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Anyone else on @virginmedia getting “To Be Announced” on virtually every channel. Tried rebooting, switching on and off. Strikes me that VM has gone to shit recently. Loads of channels have gone, close to sacking it off.

  • Wardixo Jonathon Ward (@Wardixo) reported from South Shields, England

    Shoutout to @vmbusiness who after 5 days told me to reset my router and have now told me they will simply continue to monitor the problem. No stream until NationWars now where we pray it’s going to be better.

  • neosalad neosalad (@neosalad) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @SundSaeed @virginmedia Engineer booked for Tuesday. Not happy. No football! No @carltonkirby #homeofcycling AND NO xbox @GearsofWar times on Saturday NIGHT. TESTS SAY NO Issues. But there is issues. #NE6

  • GlocketCosplay ✾Bam Bam✾ (@GlocketCosplay) reported from Dunston, England

    Yeah great, I lose my TFT ranked after hard winning most of it because @virginmedia internet service goes down more consistently then most men.

  • panicdragon8779 John Brunton (@panicdragon8779) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia No problem

  • neosalad neosalad (@neosalad) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Nice one @virginmedia I've missed all the 2nd half of the match now. No BB, no Tivo. And your still billing me a higher rate than was agreed when I did the tests which say no issues in my area. Tried resets.

  • panicdragon8779 John Brunton (@panicdragon8779) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Think I have but any more problems I will give you a yell

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia This lithium service you use is to get people off social media. It obfuscates and is unable to resolve anything. I'll take my chance in the legal system and with independent ombudsman.

  • ThunderbirdWPC Tracey Ainsley (@ThunderbirdWPC) reported from Whickham, England

    Been hanging on phone to @virginmedia for 19 mins and then got cut off! Was 54 mins the other week. Do you think we have time just to sit around! Problems with tv service! Same yesterday in our NE16 area

  • JenMains Jen (@JenMains) reported

    @virginmedia Can I not do it online? I just need to cancel my account ASAP as I’m moving

  • twoshoes_tv TwoShoes (@twoshoes_tv) reported

    @virginmedia My upload speed ranges from 0.2-3 in the week but during the weekend (up until around 3pm) I get upload speed of 6+ This is a problem of inconsistency mainly.

  • TheDamo08 Damo (@TheDamo08) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I'm now being told by your customer service there is not stock for my broadband but also they can send me a self starter pack. Worst customer service I've ever experienced. Nothing but lies.

  • YasserZayni Yasser Zayni (@YasserZayni) reported

    @virginmedia the worst customer service I have experienced in my life. No one know how to talk and resolve a customer issue. I doubt very much there is any pride or care in how they treat their customers. Extremely disappointing!

  • karenden74 karen grimes (@karenden74) reported

    @virginmedia Several times my WiFi is rubbish dropped out all the time several times a time your engineers have come out and don’t understand why and why we can’t get it in the front of the house but you want to charge me £200 to cancel a service that you agree does not work

  • Matthew_Wright Matthew Wright (@Matthew_Wright) reported

    In other news @virginmedia is 55 minutes away from failing to fix our broadband for a third time. Time to cancel that Direct Debit methinks...

  • rosefazak Rose Fazakarley (@rosefazak) reported

    @virginmedia how do I report an open communications box please . Not sure if it’s been vandalised or got damaged in the wind overnight, but it’s open to the elements and hoofing down with rain. Thank you

  • K2theAzzy Quazi (@K2theAzzy) reported

    @virginmedia Never mind, won't let me DM. I'll explain my issues in the following tweets.

  • abrodieakers Annie Brodie Akers (@abrodieakers) reported

    @JohnnyDude1983 @virginmedia Phone and online. They've been emailing me to confirm our telephone conversations. Unless I've got a clone, there's definitely an issue here

  • orkhanahmadov Orkhan Ahmadov (@orkhanahmadov) reported

    @marcelpociot @virginmedia I think people dramatize it. It says "security password". It is probably some kind of shared verification phrase which is used to authorize certain actions on your account when calling customer service. It is usually filled out when first time signing a contract with the company.
