  • jayniecakes Jayne (@jayniecakes) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Why have a Twitter presence when you can never answer account specific queries? It's a ridiculous set up.

  • Kiefer1667 Marc Lancaster (@Kiefer1667) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia hi, is it possible to check if my virgin mobile is being moved over from using ee to Vodafone? My signal keeps dropping in and out....i was told this would be happening sometime this year.

  • neilc5017 Neil Connolly (@neilc5017) reported from St Helens, England

  • nookandwillow clare wilson (@nookandwillow) reported from Prescot, England

    @ThingsByNik @virginmedia Oh no, I’ve just signed up for their BB as our Sky one is awful and it’s the fastest available, I keep hearing not the greatest things about them though 🙈

  • Gary_Kilroy Gary Kilroy (@Gary_Kilroy) reported from Liverpool, England

    The customer service offered by @virginmedia has now reached such comically useless levels that they're now making it next to impossible for me to pay them for their services!

  • Kiefer1667 Marc Lancaster (@Kiefer1667) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Thanks, if i request a pac code, does this cancel my contract automatically or do i still have to try and speak to someone in person over the phone, ive checked my account and im just on a rolling 30 day plan now my contract ended last dec,thanks

  • jayniecakes Jayne (@jayniecakes) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia They will disconnect my services but it might take 24 hrs..as I say if Openreach come and find I have a working phone line then them and Sky will cancel ny ibstallation! Please can my phone but turned off as of midnight or at least mych earlier than 24hrs?

  • jayniecakes Jayne (@jayniecakes) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Well I've just had a "sort of" resolution but still not really acceptable. I gave 30 days notice to cancel my services as want to get Sky. Sky and Openreach are coming tomorrow to fit phoneline & services. I have booked a day off work for this. If there is still (cont) >>

  • Ceasar_1990 Chris Greenhalgh (@Ceasar_1990) reported from Liverpool, England

    Virgin media internet is the worst 😤

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yeah I did initially and then doesn't load the page Tried calling just automated sent me links to mobile the same links already checked and then hung up No estimated time of when will be fixed.. I guess it's with people finishing work and realising their service is down hmmm

  • nookandwillow clare wilson (@nookandwillow) reported from Prescot, England

    @ThingsByNik @virginmedia Have noticed they’re hard to get hold of as I’ve had issues with my install (outdoors related) they should at least do you a deal…if you could actually speak to them they will prob offer you something, that’s what Sky usually do

  • shell634 Michelle Oldroyd (@shell634) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yeah known issue with TV Aim to fix by 12.00 No am or PM or date So not really much help !

    @virginmedia I meant over the years I've been with you, working fine now only thing broken is your customer service

  • Starbar82 Gemma Starley💙 (@Starbar82) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve found the problem. The complaint form showed me the email address you must have wanted.I must have updated it years ago so why that’s still stored I have no idea.That’ll be why I’ve had no confirmation on the new box. Complaint submitted. You should have figured that out.

  • rickwookie Richard 🍊⛅️ (@rickwookie) reported

    On hold with @virginmedia so I can tell them I want to leave them because their price hikes are getting silly, and to add insult to injury they’re playing Ed Sheeran at me down the phone.

  • Y33SSG G (@Y33SSG) reported

    @virginmedia No thanks, I'll wait until the end of my contract and call to cancel

  • PaulieJenks Paul Jenkins 💙 (@PaulieJenks) reported

    @virginmedia Still not working properly

  • GaryLumsden3 Gary Lumsden (@GaryLumsden3) reported

    @virginmedia I was advised this was a postcode wide outage during the call last night. Sat for 5 hrs and the TV in the living room didn’t work, 5hrs later I went to bed and turned on the TV in the room (separate virgin box) am this one is ok? So much for a full outage, maybe I should cancel.
