@VodafoneUK I'm not sure... as far as I can tell it's a @virginmedia issue. But you may be able to help. No one on Vodafone can call our virgin landline. It just beeps or says the number and code combination isn't recognised.

@virginmedia just spoke to a lovely guy on the phone. However, I don’t understand how you can justify charging £40 + for a deal that is £32 online for a new customer. I’ve been with you 20 + years, nothing needs doing to the account. It’s already set up. No point being loyal?

@virginmedia But on the online forum it says others have had the same problem and your technical department need to contact Sky and the line needs to be routed to you again as it's a porting issue. I can't see any other examination although I appreciate I'm not a technician.

@virginmedia He said it '100% wasn't a porting issue' and that he would look into it but that wouldn't be the answer. Another lady called me later on a few times and asked me to call our land line on three separate occasions and she could call back to get the times. But haven't had a call yet

@virginmedia Hi!! Just letting you know my land line issue still isn't fixed. Someone is supposed to be calling me back today. I'm really hoping they do. Just wanted to say thanks to Robert too for being so helpful. Despite this still driving me mad.

@virginmedia hi!! We're having issues calling our landline from Vodafone mobiles. Have googled and it looks like it's a porting issue. But one of your technicians has just called and talked to me like I'm stupid and told me it's not. Can you help???

@virginmedia Account which then changed my bill been in the phone today to customer service who advised it’s fixed now and will have the confirmation through, and just had it and it is still wrong. I have had someone called Ross from billing,dealing with this but now no response from him 🙄

@virginmedia Someone else has called me since and had said she's going to call me back and look into it. But I was just so frustrated with the way he spoke to me. I'm not one for just googling random sites but this was on one of your forums and it's the exact same issue!

@virginmedia @richardbranson how bad are your installation teams in Blackpool! They can’t even put a cable in the ground in 6 weeks at my property, think somebody needs to check on your engineers to see what they do all day! #busydoingnothing #virginmedia #broadband 👎🤬

@VMO2News @virginmedia Would not recommend Virgin. Had more problems with them than we ever had with sky and BT together. No WiFi for 3 days - “due to an outage” they say. How is this acceptable? Terrible service.

@virginmedia my Internet wasn't working this morning. I have tried the service status which tells me to wait 24 hours. I have reset my hub, factory reset my hub and the light on the hub is white but no device is working. Followed all your guides online too.

@virginmedia interesting conversation with your helpdesk. My 'super' hub 3 is experiencing intermittent WiFi issues with signal drop outs; Nothing they can do... really? You only guarantee ethernet and not WiFi? Thanks(!) Maybe I should reconsider supplier?

@virginmedia @curlylew06 @richardbranson No point raising complaints as you just ignore them or offer tiny compensation for the trouble caused. Virgin Media getting worse each year

@virginmedia I have spoken to one of your staff but he could/ would not cancel it but was trying to sell me more broadband which I do not need. He said he would call back but that didn’t happen. I have come up against a brick wall. Please provide an email address so that I can cancel this.

@Ed6114 @virginmedia No it's exactly the service you have given Ed, me and a lot of other customers. Your customer service is absolutely awful as 8s your comppaimts handling procedure.
