@virginmedia brilliant service. Quick call to downgrade package/pause sports 35 mins hold and call just terminates. Bet if I stop paying the what is it £105 a month I’ll be cut off in minutes and phoned constantly for the outstanding money.

@jadey_voorhees @virginmedia They really are, I don’t know how they still exist! Try sky, and because you work within abbeycenter guys will give you discount, they did for me as well. Means if any issues as well you don’t have to phone customer services, they will be able to sort it out for you on the spot!

@virginmedia 3 issues. Virgin tv app slow to log in, doesn't show any of my paid channels. Broadband intermittent this week. Wi-Fi router range is poor in general. No signal in adjoining room.

@StephenStitt @virginmedia Their customer service team are fairly decent if you give them a call when they are available tomorrow. (They will probably ask you do do everything you've tried yourself though)

@virginmedia No! I have logged onto @primevideouk on another device and it works. So my account is fine. But it's not working on my V6 box and I have missed the first half of the match.

@virginmedia We have had new boosters sent out and recently a new hub to try to solve the problems but still they remain unresolved. This situation needs addressed as we are currently paying for a service that we aren’t receiving

@jadey_voorhees @virginmedia Honestly they are horrible, we changed to sky. Their customer service is terrible, up to 1 h waiting on the phone after having to press all the options... just for them to put you on hold and hang up! Took me over 1 week of phoning to finally cancel the contract!

@virginhelp @JudieannRose @virginmedia I doubt you will receive help to whoever was “tagged”. This is just constant abuse of failure to provide legitimate service for the amount that they are charging every month.

@virginmedia broadband down yet again in the SM7 area. This 'service' you're providing is getting abysmal and no longer fit for purpose.
