  • P25_Fletch Paul fletcher (@P25_Fletch) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve tried to call 5 times to cancel services without success. I’m emigrating in January and I’ve no idea how else to try and contact you. Could someone please DM me so I can pass on phone number to receive a call ?

  • DJLKP LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Yep. Intermittent service

    @virginmedia seems your Cs WhatsApp is broken, can anyone one reactivate my WiFi pod?

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia wifi speed is disgustingly slow in NE 27

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia hi are you having problems in NE34? Our TV has been down since around 10.45am with error code V53. Can’t check service status online as your site appears to be unavailable.

  • Neil_Rivelino Neil Todd (@Neil_Rivelino) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia my V6 boxes have stopped communicating with each other (in reality downstairs is talking to upstairs but not vice-verse). Anyone who can help?

  • DJLKP LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia 17 days with no TV service, finally resumed today after another manual restarts at this end. Any chance of a refund of half of this month? That's pretty dire.

  • 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

  • Deggsytweets Deggsy™ (@Deggsytweets) reported from Sunderland, England

    @BurnleyJo @virginmedia Yea they’ve got issues with certain channels

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

    @virginmedia @virginhelp what the hell is going on I don't have any data no phone calls nothing help please got use my home internet

  • DJLKP LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia All on screen instructions followed, waited til I finished work today to check and it still doesn't get past 25% on the "searching for channels" page... Just taken the direct debit for a service which has been broken since 2.12.21...

  • SimonBewick Simon Bewick (@SimonBewick) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    Well since complaining on here about @virginmedia and their terrible phone calls last week I’ve had 5 calls in the last three days all trying to sell me the same upgrade. Absolutely this close (fingers mms apart) from cancelling with them completely. FFS sort it out!

  • Look_North Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.

  • DJLKP LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Still down now, can work from Catch Up or my recordings, but nothing live as there are no channels. Drop outs in WiFi too. Not great.

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

    @virginmedia more disgustingly slow speeds in NE27

  • P25_Fletch Paul fletcher (@P25_Fletch) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia You’s really do make it almost impossible to cancel. I’ve called 5 times over 3 days. Either don’t get transferred or get cut off. Looks like I’ll try by writing a letter….

  • DJLKP LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Can I win a TV service that works (Thursday 2nd Dec it's been off since) , or internet with no huge drop outs please? Or a link that works to fix anything. #AllIWantForChristmasistheserviceipayfor

  • jeffpapis JP (@jeffpapis) reported

    Hey @virginmedia my internet has been down since yesterday. Last update says hoping to fix issue by 10 tomorrow!!!! Any updates?

  • thecoldgunner East Coast Steam (@thecoldgunner) reported

    @FD_Tweets @HubNutVids You joke but Virgin media has a massive outage in my area, lost cable TV, internet and landline services. Local Cityfibre have apparently severed the Virgin cable. Not for the first time either...

  • BMagistretti Bérénice Magistretti (@BMagistretti) reported

    @oliviasolon @virginmedia Hate @virginmedia, had the worst experience with them!

  • OliverPusey Oliver Pusey (@OliverPusey) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England

    @virginmedia No internet this morning, but according to your status page, there isn’t anything wrong. We know it isn’t just us and our whole street is out. Really wonder why we bother with Virgin, your reliability is shocking and your service is horrendous.

  • mikarv Michael Veale (@mikarv) reported

    @oliviasolon @virginmedia virgin are a minefield, and it's not even fibre. pathetic upload rates (even if they say 1gbps download, it;s about 50mpbs upload max, at huge cost.) Pray you can get Hyperoptic (or CityFibre, Community Fibre). I can't, I use @aaisp which is the best possible on the BT network.

  • barabusla mehi (@barabusla) reported

    @oliviasolon @virginmedia Dont get Virgin. Just spoke with customer service Safdar (and recorded my call). He couldn't answer my question, had an attitude and hung up!!!!!

  • Gaarmstrong318 Geoffrey Armstrong (@Gaarmstrong318) reported

    Down to virginmedia being unable to send out comms and warn people. FYI that’s a day unpaid due to nature of it and we can use holiday at short notice so because you you we are down £160 in pay an lad have no services to boot. #sortyourshitout

  • ClancyAllyson Allyson Clancy (@ClancyAllyson) reported

    @virginmedia Hi tried this it’s a customer service live chat which I simply can’t go through asking same questions all over too stressful

  • Gaarmstrong318 Geoffrey Armstrong (@Gaarmstrong318) reported

    @virginhelp another great example of piss poor comms from Virginmedia. They’ve decided that during the day is tue best time to disconnect everyone and upgrade their systems without telling anybody first. Both me and my partner have been forced to take the day off work now all

  • TimandraHarknes Timandra Harkness (@TimandraHarknes) reported

    @oliviasolon @virginmedia I use @zeninternet for everything, and I would recommend them. Possibly not the cheapest but very reliable and super helpful (even if their customer service did get a bit overwhelmed mid-pandemic when they rashly told everyone how to save money by changing service packages!)
