    @virginmedia All on screen instructions followed, waited til I finished work today to check and it still doesn't get past 25% on the "searching for channels" page... Just taken the direct debit for a service which has been broken since 2.12.21...

    @virginmedia hi I need to cancel an engineer appointment but clearly you've made this difficult to do. Any thoughts?

  • P25_Fletch Paul fletcher (@P25_Fletch) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve tried to call 5 times to cancel services without success. I’m emigrating in January and I’ve no idea how else to try and contact you. Could someone please DM me so I can pass on phone number to receive a call ?

  • Look_North Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.

    @virginmedia disgusting slow speeds AGAIN in NE27 Cant wait for my contract end

  • DJLKP LKP - DJ / Vocalist (PSiMiTAR) (@DJLKP) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia 17 days with no TV service, finally resumed today after another manual restarts at this end. Any chance of a refund of half of this month? That's pretty dire.

    @virginmedia Hi, we managed to some service back around 3:30pm however it’s just back off again. TV, Braodband, Phone line all down again. Apparently someone nearby wiped out the junction box which has caused the issue.

  • 100noseynora Sarah Tharme (@100noseynora) reported

    @MoneySavingExp can you help with Virgin Media please? Elderly mother moved house, sent all equipment back, they didn't close account and since overcharged her, threatening bailiffs to go round. I've phoned 6 times today, cut off every time.

  • ConvoyRecords Rupert Blacklock (@ConvoyRecords) reported

    @virginmedia I am a desperately unhappy customer - I have spent 10 days wasting my time with your staff in your call centres = useless! HELP!!!!! URGENT!!!!

    @virginmedia It does appear that I was wrong and you were right. The fault is fixed and all is well. My apologies for doubting and my thanks to those who resolved the issue.

  • HelenColley Helen Colley (@HelenColley) reported

    @virginmedia I have sent the refund request to PayPal with supporting evidence, but received an automatic message that the seller (yourselves) could resolve this matter amicably, i.e. you could refund my money. The Premier Inn Ultimate WiFi Service is still not working today.
