@virginmedia Done that. Looks like the TiVo box the likely problem. Needs replacing. So how do i do that? Phone leads to online help: online leads nowhere helpful, for just replacing a TiVo box. Ideas?

@virginmedia how do you not have an email address for customer service? You are asking that we don’t call unless it’s urgent but then all other options (text bot in particular) are not fit for purpose.

@virginmedia so. I left virgin media in October after 19 years, not that I wanted to. I just was fed up of new customers getting a better deal. Now I keep getting billed and its up to £150. How can I stop this. Been on the phone 20mins but had to put it down 😤😤😤

@virginmedia hey Virgin, what do you do when you’re not acknowledging a complaint or following your own complaints process and I’m only left with the option of cisas. Care to offer any help before I start that process.

@virginmedia my 80yo Grandma has been without use of her phone for almost 24 hours. This has been reported and the automated message keeps saying will be resolved by a certain time, but that time keeps getting put back. Unable to speak to an actual person. Can you help?

@virginmedia This is the same customer service team that have been ringing me back since sunday, also the same team that hung up on me last night without a call back. Ill be waiting for the ombudsman to follow up for your unacceptable customer service and not waste any more of my time.

So my question is can you please help one of your customers or do I need to start emailing your CEO and everyone at Virgin Media until I get some help? Is that honestly, I have your service for about a month and all I can say right now is that I hate it.
