    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

  • MarkLangshaw
    Mark Langshaw (@MarkLangshaw) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Was Thursday or Friday but you never call me back when you say you will, so I'm not confident it will be completed unless I keep chasing it up.

    @virginmedia advice please! I’ve been a customer for over ten years and am also an o2 customer and my account is now going up by another £12 per month on a pretty basic package! Phoned twice and been told that someone will get back to me with a new price package - still nothing

  • ShanklyBob77
    Ian Hawksey (@ShanklyBob77) reported from Aintree Village, England

    Absolute nightmare trying to watch @SkySportsF1 on my phone because of how poor @virginmedia are especially since merging with @o2, used to just put email and password in, now going around in circles with same message asking me to verify email link and switch, very poor practice.

    @skytv @skytv . I am disappointed with your customer service and technical team . They have disconnected my sky viewing card . Why ?. I want rectifyying ASAP . Or shall I just cancel my subscription and go over to virgin media

  • lurkinhead
    Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Okay, but with respect, the problem is your call centre say different stuff every time, which inevitably bears no resemblance to reality. Later, VM deny those conversations ever took place and there is no written evidence to back up what was agreed. That's what I am after here?

    @virginmedia @Benleo I had VM for about 12 years and couldn`t fault the service. I only left because I got a cheaper provider who are okay. I will be returning to VM once my contract is up though.
