    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

  • 1AnneMcCormack
    Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England

    @virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.

    Having the choice of the awful customer service of @virginmedia or the @bt_uk network which in my area might as well be two tin cans tied together with string is great!

    Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia ...when all she has is TV on an old box and a phone line. She's house bound and this is all she has. The 1st feller attitude was disgusting and said like it or lump it. Clearly doesn't enjoy his job at Virgin Media and customer service is not his game! Awaiting a manger today, ty

    Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

    @virginmedia Sorry I really don’t get it. A few hours ago I was told that your team would investigate etc. Now you’re telling you don’t have any access so I’m left to hang on with no one from VM being able to update me. Is that it?

    Tony (@AckerHeron) reported from Liverpool, England

    Hi @virginmedia, my dear old mum has been on the phone for 20 minutes because her broadband has gone down. Your advisors keep saying to reset the hub and disconnecting before it's sorted. Any ideas? Still using the crap one you sent years ago despite her recontracting

    @EoinLenihan Virgin Media promoted by FFG without public consultation to status of a Public Broadcasting Co Should not be allowed on X to use an a/c when reporting on a news incident eg. Skerries brawl which denies the public to make comment When they allow only selected accounts reply
