  • tenchylad Stu (@tenchylad) reported from Sunderland, England

    @OliverStanding @virginmedia It's not a great self serve option and poor customer experience. I have an issue trying to remove a service from my current package. Cant be done digitally or remotely. Only via phone which even then very few of the advisors have the levels of authority to amend your package.

  • ema_neale emma (@ema_neale) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your reset help earlier it worked, unlike waiting 10 hrs for someone to finally respond to me again via WhatsApp. I was told that there were no offers for current customers yet your website states otherwise!

    @virginmedia But how come it’s not one area. Been over half a day we pay for tv and internet and nothing and no updates unless we moan. Sort it such a big organisation as yours. Crap service

  • chazjp - (@chazjp) reported

    So... After persuading Virgin Media to send an engineer out, he finds no faults and leaves. Guess what.... Virgin is down again🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻

  • DanielleFaye91 Danielle... (@DanielleFaye91) reported

    @jvtooey @virginmedia I know it’s been since this morning, it was just the issue about restored channels going off. This was confirmed an hour after they had - was unaware their website was down also at the time so this would of been the reason.

  • backhurst52 peter (@backhurst52) reported

    @glen7glenys @virginmedia it would be nice if you at least told us what the problem is, we pay a lot of money it would be polite and considerate to put out a statement no bull **** like it a technical issue

  • juliegroves49 julie groves (@juliegroves49) reported

    @virginmedia @omagnon1986 They have all gone for there covid vaccination booster jab normal crap service will resume tomorrow

  • Pesty13 Pesty 🩸 (@Pesty13) reported

    @virginmedia At least for a change people won’t be able to watch the usual farcical news programs ramming covid rubbish down our throats.

  • yorkshirebegley Phil Begley. (@yorkshirebegley) reported

    @virginmedia Any idea when TV service will resume in WF1 postcode area #outage

  • KevinChappell3 Kevin Chappell (@KevinChappell3) reported

    @virginmedia To register an outage to get a refund for Virgin Media’s automatic compensation scheme you have to be able to get to talk to someone or use the website, both of which seem to be impossible, as the TV service has been down for 6hrs how can you report lack of service?

  • suerobinsin Suzanne Robinson (@suerobinsin) reported

    @virginmedia when am I going to get all my channels back? We as your customers pay enough for this shoddy service and yet there's always an issue being with you!

  • HarryGo77032335 Harry Gordon (@HarryGo77032335) reported

    @virginmedia Get the service fixed and stop with **** excuses
