    @virginmedia is your broadband down completely in #NE5 any idea when will be working???

  • davechristie15 DaveChristieImaging (@davechristie15) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @louisewil86 @yanic1965 @virginmedia Refuse to pay for a month...any contract by law gives you 14 days to cancel!

  • PaulGmedia Paul G (@PaulGmedia) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia My contract has expired and I’m wondering what options are available if I decide to sign a new one. Feels like it’d be easier to leave, tbh. I’m also moving house so wanted to discuss moving service to new address. I appreciate you’re busy, but it’s an absolute nightmare.

  • fionajohnson__ fiona johnson (@fionajohnson__) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia wifi down in NE2 area????

  • davechristie15 DaveChristieImaging (@davechristie15) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @louisewil86 @yanic1965 @virginmedia I'm supposed to be on 50mbs...nowhere near! What they dont tell you (any bband supplier) but my engineer does....is that the fibre cable only goes to your local substation box...then thru copper cable to your house ...so slowed down automatically!

  • finswimmerjohn1 John Lavender - #Speedowarrior (@finswimmerjohn1) reported from Whickham, England

    @virginmedia We have two VM boxes for collection as we have already left your network. Can you please arrange for someone to disconnect and collect them? Thanks in anticipation.

  • Scotttate1990 Scott Tate (@Scotttate1990) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia issues with WiFi signal NE32 area. Been off and on all night, no known issues on website

  • McGannJohn John McGann (@McGannJohn) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia great customer service tactics, tell people theres going to be a long hold time, when they get to an hour on hold just hang up on them because they clearly don't need Internet any time soon...

  • alistairoates alistair oates (@alistairoates) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Please if you’re providing a terrible internet service don’t use the phase, ‘Oops. Our bad’

  • ruthemmj Ruth Bennett (@ruthemmj) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Hahahaha talk about bullshit - had to change to sky because of your **** service

  • peterat50 peter atkinson #FBPE (@peterat50) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Anyone thinking of dealing with @virginmedia don’t their customer service is woeful . Another hour wasted trying to contact them 😡

  • davechristie15 DaveChristieImaging (@davechristie15) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia If I go onto your mobile app I can never get into the info ...the icon just keeps swirling around & around etc

  • McGannJohn John McGann (@McGannJohn) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia amazing concept of telling people who have no Internet at home to log onto an Internet chat room to get help with getting their Internet back, do I get a refund for the data used to tether my laptop just to get access to customer service?

  • davechristie15 DaveChristieImaging (@davechristie15) reported from Shiremoor, England

    @virginmedia Hi...obv you have taken notice of my post re cancelling contract of one of your ex subs.Its Law!! Re my service..i'm wired from reuter to pc & tv then wifi to mobile & tablet obv...im happy with virgin tv but bband signal pc & wifi altho "50mbs" is slow ...NOT good enough!

  • ruthemmj Ruth Bennett (@ruthemmj) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Done that.. hence why calling - your website is crap

  • peterat50 peter atkinson #FBPE (@peterat50) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia you are impossible to deal with !! I’ve been trying to contact you since 4/10 to tell you I’m moving can someone please contact me as i don’t have the life force to waste listening to terrible music whilst on hold

  • ruthemmj Ruth Bennett (@ruthemmj) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Other than checking the plugs and the cable connections - your light indication service doesn’t work.. it made me run and run and run diagnostics and engineers in 3/4 days isn’t good enough - still didn’t repost any fault even saying the internet wasn’t working.. RUBBISH

  • piggypics Les Pigg (@piggypics) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia No but I have now dealt with it via your customer services and asked to remove my mam from virgin sales list. Thanks

  • jameshedges4 James Robert Hedges (@jameshedges4) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Have a mountain of work to do and need to be online to do all of it. What a surprise, @virginmedia is down again. What a waste of money

  • McGannJohn John McGann (@McGannJohn) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia After 2 hours on hold I got through to a nice guy in the call centre, he couldn't work out the issue so I've got no Internet for 2 days until an engineer comes out. Love paying for services I don't get...

  • mt_tsas Martin Taylor (@mt_tsas) reported

    @virginmedia do you offer a VOIP service for domestic customers and if so what is involved and can we retain our landline number?

  • jodiembaker1981 Jodie Baker (@jodiembaker1981) reported

    @virginmedia It's all been reported....over 10days ago, you know what the fault is but choose to take over a week to send engineers out!! Meanwhile, unable to work from home, Jubilee weekend finished and still 3 days (if we are lucky!) before you fix it?! #terribleservice #unacceptable #fail

  • RobaireBeckwith Dr Robaire Beckwith 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 (@RobaireBeckwith) reported

    @virginmedia I should make it clear that there's no Virgin Media connection in the house nor do we use Virgin services of any description. Conversations with so-called customer services staff pointlessly go round in circles and one in particular was extremely abrasive, threatening and abusive

  • hjk27uk helen kirk (@hjk27uk) reported

    @EAHelp Virgin Media are incompetant twits & have killed my ancient email address. They can't fix it, & I can't access my EA Origin Account without a verification link being sent to that e-mail. I seem to be at an impasse. Your online help doesn't help! Any ideas please?

  • steviedax Stevie Dax (@steviedax) reported

    @virginmedia phone line been down since storms last night but server status says no faults and your app is not working to check it either. Please help.

  • Gstraitz Gareth Smith 🇬🇧 (@Gstraitz) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia any news on why services are down in Leeds please been 12hrs and no luck on any information? Tv is down but broadband and phone are fine

  • onlyatroller onlyatroller (@onlyatroller) reported
