  • Divadi29 Dianne Wilson (@Divadi29) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia Both, i currently have to work from home and my internet crashes all the time. i can’t get a signal in my bedroom which is the room directly above the box

  • richarddbaker Richard Baker (@richarddbaker) reported from Darlington, England

    .@virginmedia 45 minutes on hold now listening to the horrible music!

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Yes I'm aware, they have just hung up on me again after an hour without even a real person, 6 times now and thats why I was asking for @richardbranson number, your sales guys don't seem to have any issues calling me though #JustSaying

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @AhDeluxe @virginmedia Was it the 10 minute off or the 4/5 hour cut? Never anything inbetween in my experience

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia can you advise the next time I will be able to receive your broadband for a period of 24 hours or more without it going down? #StayConnected #IfYouCan

  • richarddbaker Richard Baker (@richarddbaker) reported from Darlington, England

    .@virginmedia are amazing me at the levels of incompetence that they're able to reach. Been on hold today now for 1h 33m, 2hrs 7m (then they cut me off!) and currently 33mins! If you need any customer service from them then avoid them!!!

  • Divadi29 Dianne Wilson (@Divadi29) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia i was asked to upgrade as a valued customer, since upgrading my broadband is terrible we are all using 4g at home as connection is so poor. i have done all testing as directed from comp voice on phone and link sent to mobile. i pay for 3 virgin mobiles one now has no data

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia seriously, a price increase?! Only renewed my contract 2 months ago and for more than I've ever paid! Of course, no customer service available either. Ridiculous!

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @NathHawkeswood @virginmedia Twitter cant help, phoning cant speak to anyone, text service in an endless loop, chat service online is also an endless loop I need to speak with line faults and they aren't even an option on the automated phone service so I'm really screwed

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No errors, never is, yet everyday at least once my net goes off, normally for 10 minutes sometimes for up to 4 or 5 hours, cant remember last time I made it 24 hours with no down time

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    Not a lover of call centres and thought that they didn't really offer any customer service of any real value, then you have the likes of @virginmedia and @Hermesparcels that seem to want to upset customers. That said, credit to @NespressoUK, was blown away with your service

  • richarddbaker Richard Baker (@richarddbaker) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia Ah, so I do have to wait a week to get my broadband service back then! I was tantalisingly close to being able to do my job! Will have to inform my employers I guess!

  • ashleyhwright Ashley Wright (@ashleyhwright) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia Internet seems to be down on DL3? Any update?

  • Poddddddd Jamie Gilbey (@Poddddddd) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia can I access some support on here?

  • richarddbaker Richard Baker (@richarddbaker) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia To investigate the problem with my broadband hub.

  • gaussey 𝗠𝙞𝖼𝗵𝖺𝙚𝗅 𓆤 (@gaussey) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No, everything is fine thanks, the outage only lasted two hours.

  • richarddbaker Richard Baker (@richarddbaker) reported from Darlington, England

    No company will ever be as inept as @virginmedia: - Phone lines: wait for hours, can't speak to anyone - Message service on app down for two weeks - Text service: messaged Sat, Sun, Mon, Tues; still no reply

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @KEESH1984 @virginmedia 8 days of that, we not heard fro you for a while youbstill need to speak to someone? OK let's start the whole thing again Chuffing useless, what they offer is not customer service its hope it fixes itself before anyone notices or leaves

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Let me ask, so you know how long the line is to speak to technical support? Have you tried using the text service and online chat? I have all at the same time and after 8 days I still hadn't spoke with anyone, you are unable to support your services

  • official_RHG use code REBEL-HEART-GAME #epicpartner ツ (@official_RHG) reported

    @virginmedia I have they said they have noted it down

  • Lennon068 lennon33 (@Lennon068) reported

    @virginmedia internet down, rang service number. HUB fine, now been told to wait 24hrs. Why is it going to take 24hrs, also why does your broadband status say there are no know issues when clearly there is.

  • afnw35342 Alex Fleming (@afnw35342) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia Trying to sign up for Volt but you’re weblinks send me in circles & you’re digital assistants are no help. What else can I try?

  • tailsinge Sen 🌻 (@tailsinge) reported

    Virgin Media doing work that takes the internet down, during work hours from 9-3, without notification. Its not like a ton of people work from home at this point!! Worst UK ISP honestly.

  • j1ggy_j jiggy jai (@j1ggy_j) reported

    @virginmedia Also what you forgot to mention is that if I call the 0345 number from a virgin landline it’s chargeable. Which I found out at my own expense. These issues were previously reported. What more am I ment to do ? Your company has really dragged me down.

  • John_Ogden John Ogden (@John_Ogden) reported

    Hey @virginmedia if there are no issues in my area, why don’t I have internet & why are there 2 virgin media guys ripping cables out the box on the street? 😡🤬

  • GorillaHeadz Gorilla Headz (@GorillaHeadz) reported

    @virginmedia Terrible. Still down. Got a meeting in 2 hours that I’ve had to cancel so now losing money too.

  • AdamJukes Adam Jukes (@AdamJukes) reported

    @virginmedia What’s the point of providing a Twitter service if you are then unable to have the right people check/report potential system issues which affect your company’s income?
