@virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia perhaps you should be making the effort to get me to stay as a customer. Hopefully @SkyHelpTeam will be able to offer me something more cost effective

@SkyHelpTeam hope all is well, @virginmedia have just increased my bill again for broadband (£32 increase per month in the last 10 months, disgraceful) are there any deals for a Sky customer for broadband?

WiFi went down in the middle of watching Halloween Ends. 4G signal also unresponsive. Stuck on very slow 4G. Virgin Media say it’s possibly a hardware fault and want to send someone Monday. No. I’m not waiting 72 hours with no internet. I’ll implode.

@virginmedia Hi! Our landline is being switched over to fibre on the 4th October, however our landline and WiFi hub are not on the same floor so we cannot connect them. Help please!

@virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

What's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.

@virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!

@virginmedia Hi, the brown plastic virgin media box on the outside of my house has broken in the recent storms and the wires are exposed. The help chatbot doesn't understand and no answer on WhatsApp, how do I arrange for someone to come and fix it?

@virginmedia @O2 after spending 5 mins trying to log into live tv. Going thru a load of steps I get “sign in failed”. Do you actually test anything? Half the options during sign in don’t even work like passkey

@O2 2 years now since I switched, multiple support tickets, many failed promises from you, and I still don’t have my Volt benefits because “my account is not eligible”. Well it’s been eligible from the @virginmedia side since day 1. This is beyond pathetic.
