  • sheeshkebab Ian K (@sheeshkebab) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I’m not after any account info though, so no need to go through security. Neither of my parents are very technical nor do I have access to the device showing the problem.

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

    Another blackout on @virginmedia

  • philippat Philippa Taylor (@philippat) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia good customer service , they asked if they could ring me back in 15 mins due to his PC not working , now 2.5 hours later and I am still waiting , tried ringing them back and been on hold for 28 mins now 😡

  • 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 🤔

  • 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

  • andychristie999 ac (@andychristie999) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia over the last few years virgin media internet has got worse the people that work in the call centres are so abrupt and rude I’ve called approximately 10 in the last 5 months and still have a intermittent fault on my internet service !!!!

  • 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

  • toniaadiexx T (@toniaadiexx) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I’ve already spoken to someone on the phone who reset the network, but that didn’t work. I also tried re-starting everything and that also didn’t work, the box itself is very slow now also.

  • Barrymore_Jones Michael Jones (@Barrymore_Jones) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia I need help

  • VictoriaBarry82 Vicki barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia hi can someone help me with my broadband

  • 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

  • LiamCottam Liam A Cottam (@LiamCottam) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Everyone was fine (eventually). The feedback is simple. If I can self serve setting up and managing my account I should be able to self serve cancel.

  • Tony_Hodson Tony Hodson #coach (@Tony_Hodson) reported from Ponteland, England

    @virginmedia 1. Why the neighbour would not have the same issues when the ‘issue’ is your automated phone system is beyond my comprehension! 2. It is not a neighbours responsibility to resolve a phone issue for the bill payer. 3. Through an internal contact I now have an engineer visit bkd.

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

    @virginmedia Worst broadband and cable provider of all time.

  • lukejameson17 luke jameson (@lukejameson17) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia right you want to explain why my broadband is at 4mbps when there’s no “issue” in my area... hate to tell you there clearly ******* is

  • 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

  • minkewales minkewales (@minkewales) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Dabooka @skybiggerpic @virginmedia It was my second attempt to be fair. First time they reduced the price rise to £1.50 per month, then I rang back a few days later to cancel. Found a better deal elsewhere but price was the driver for wanting to leave. Lovely @virginmedia agent was able to help!

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

    @NatalieeeLoweee @virginmedia I had this issue. Got home from work to watch charity shield #MCILIV after avoiding the score and it was unwatchable because of the sound issues for me so I gave up. Will just watch #motd tonight instead. #nothappy

  • 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

  • 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.

  • _OhSnapItsBecca beccaaa (@_OhSnapItsBecca) reported

    @virginmedia Hey @CBC_TOCommunity given Virgin Mobile's rebranding to Virgin Plus - now providing "awesome customer service" - is anyone else experiencing this treatment? My install date was July 15 but now it won't be done until Sept 5. I'm still being charged for two months of nonservice

  • mikebla84 Mike Blackley (@mikebla84) reported

    @virginmedia disappointed and let down as told services could be provided and once I moved house told they can’t. Lodged formal complaint 7 days ago and no contact since v. Poor. Going to have to waste another hour on the phone to speak to someone who probably won’t have a clue

  • Azzaj_93 AJ (@Azzaj_93) reported

    @virginmedia Still not working, it isn't good enough im paying for a service that I am not receiving.

  • SarahWelham1 Sarah Welham (@SarahWelham1) reported

    @doubleelforbes @virginmedia It’s so annoying especially as we are paying for the damn thing too. Had so many issues lately

  • Laura1902 Laura S (@Laura1902) reported

    @virginmedia It's more the lack of communication and unrealistic times given. I'm now aware it was due to fire damage. Had your customers been explained this at the time they'd have been less upset. it's the lack of good communication that's the issue.

  • VictoriaBilton Vix Bilton (@VictoriaBilton) reported

    @virginmedia Can someone contact me and sort it. I literally have NEVER had an account with you so I have no way to login or remove anything without texting stop which my phone operator doesn't allow

  • Nat61005810 Nat (@Nat61005810) reported

    @virginmedia Not sure that is going to help? Just wanted to make aware and ask if any issues been reported.

  • _OhSnapItsBecca beccaaa (@_OhSnapItsBecca) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin Plus prides itself on "award winning customer support" yet I've only had working home internet for 10 days since July 15th. 8 unsuccessful technician visits later, 3 reps hanging up on me, management stonewalling me & you're STILL billing me for 2 months?

  • timxrr ‏ً (@timxrr) reported

    @virginmedia y’all are seriously the worst wifi ever
