  • NevilleLishman Neville Lishman (@NevilleLishman) reported from Durham, England

    5 hrs now. Just rude @virginmedia just rude. Clearly little of your astronomically charges is spent on your customer service department. It's a recruitment Sargent for @skytv

  • ScottN1504 Scott Noble (@ScottN1504) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Has anyone ever sent anything back to virgin media before? Need some help if possible

  • 40yearsofhurt JOP (@40yearsofhurt) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Magpie24_7 Fitness levels of Virgin Media are poor.

  • HelenEmbleton1 Helen Embleton (@HelenEmbleton1) reported from Leadgate, England

    @virginmedia Your customer services

  • mickeywhizz Michael Taylor (@mickeywhizz) reported from Newburn, England

    @markcatchlove @virginmedia Pleased it’s not just me Mark. It really pee’s me off the contempt with which they treat their existing, loyal customers, some of whom have remained loyal since the days when they were Telewest. #newcustomersonly

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I’m signed in but I see no option to test the landline. I clicked on ‘fix landline’ but that just sent me back to the main menu page.

  • StevieWalls Steve Walls (@StevieWalls) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    “You don’t need to be there, we can do the cable work outside no problem” That translated into a card through the door saying “Sorry we missed you” and the work not being done. Don’t really understand that one @virginmedia

  • NETheatreGuide NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Ryton, England

    @virginmedia You offer the same package to new customers at nearly £20 cheaper so it isn't the lowest price possible, is it? Spoke 18 months ago about signal. Was told it would be looked at if I agreed to renew. Once renewed was told WiFi is not guaranteed so tough.

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I was told to log into the Myo2 app to change it myself, but I have been sent no login details and of course if the email address is incorrect it won’t be recognised if I try to register. O2 said we would receive texts with updates on number port timeline but had no communication

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

    Hello @BarclaysUK, phoned you for ten successive days and it’s an hour long queue, been into branch, you can’t sort the issue, tried chat via the app, you don’t talk mortgages on the app. You are beginning to reach peak Virgin Media for incompetence, I’m sorry, this is appalling.

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia No, service page still says all services are fine but my landline still not working.

  • tenchylad Stu (@tenchylad) reported from Sunderland, England

    @OliverStanding @virginmedia It's not a great self serve option and poor customer experience. I have an issue trying to remove a service from my current package. Cant be done digitally or remotely. Only via phone which even then very few of the advisors have the levels of authority to amend your package.

  • NETheatreGuide NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Ryton, England

    @virginmedia The signal struggles to get to each room in the house. My son complains as he games. No chance of streaming music in the bathroom. It isn't a big house either. The deal I'm on currently was negotiated when I spoke to disconnection team rather than intro offer.

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

    Time for the @virginmedia renewal. They want to hike the price. We want a new reliable WiFi box which they promised but didn't deliver last time. To be honest @BT is looking attractive as they may improve the signal around the house.

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I didn’t get the opportunity to call yesterday, but I noticed last night that it’s working again. There was nothing mentioned on service page (not unusual) but there must’ve been a fault that was eventually fixed.

  • lintoniosmythe Iinton Smith (@lintoniosmythe) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @virginmedia your call centre is an absolute joke. No one deals with problems and just transfers to a different department who hang up

  • RobbyRSSRobot Robby #CelebrateNeighbours (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Any idea when my service will be back? Hub is flashing green. I'm working from home so need it urgently.

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia can you let me know if are there any problems with landline in the NE34 area? Can’t make or receive calls, not sure how long it’s been this way. Your status page says all services are fine. Thanks.

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it’s the email address that Virgin gave them for setting up the o2 mobile account. I spoke to o2 this morning and they’re having trouble changing it or even sending a text to us for security purposes to the number we are porting because that is now inactive.

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia No help needed, thanks - just praising the deal I was given last night 🙌

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ThomasFoster278 Thomas Foster (@ThomasFoster278) reported

    @virginmedia We’re students letting a house with bills included. Will I still be able to get a fix if I call or am I wasting my time.

  • Sandra22238284 Sandra (@Sandra22238284) reported

    @I_S_H_Y_ @skytv @virginmedia That’s such a shame. Always had a good service with sky and found virgin customer service terrible.

  • coyjim Jim Coyle (@coyjim) reported

    @virginmedia hi virgin do you know what would be great ..consistency yes consistant broadband ..this slowing it down 6 times a day is not good sure its not .. I sm sure most of your customers don't like it

  • Vixenlol Poor Baby Jinx (@Vixenlol) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, wired primarily, it's just very inconsistent/intermittent and I can't rely on it for more than 30 mins at a time seemingly, I reset my router everytime to try and help, sometimes it does, sometimes it doesnt, my Jitter is over 40 consistently.

  • neo2daz Daz Wildman (@neo2daz) reported

    @virginmedia was promised a call back today by your call centre after you mistakenly disconnected my service then reconnected me at an extra 30 quid a month with a £75 connection fee!!! No call back. Absolutely fuming

  • ThomasFoster278 Thomas Foster (@ThomasFoster278) reported

    @virginmedia Unfortunately your site says that part of your website is down so I’m unable to check.

  • soph_letitia Soph 🌸 (@soph_letitia) reported

    @virginmedia They’ve been promised server all dates and each time someone either comes out and says they can’t do it or my grandma has to call customer service because no one shows up! (2/2)

  • JCTJennings Like a lamb out of water (@JCTJennings) reported

    @virginmedia Internet running very slow tonight ~10mbps (I get 350 usually). Unusual for VirginMedia to be this slow. Any known probs in West Cheshire area?

  • Moose__HD Moose_HD (@Moose__HD) reported

    @virginmedia your Internet sucks, sort it out. 6 times it reset itself today

  • DakaraSpawnBlk Dakara_Spawn_Blk (@DakaraSpawnBlk) reported
