Dr Stower and the Stock Market of Madness 🦍 (@1CreativeRay) reported from Wainscott, England@virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

Ashley Halliday (@TylerTowers) reported from Gillingham, EnglandI’ve been on my knees far too much tonight. @virginmedia your broadband is awful these days. And resetting either fails or lasts 10 mins. From superhero to supergran. Not worth your monthly bill. #virginmediadown #virginmedia

Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia I’ve spent over 2 hours on the phone and I lost count of people I’ve spoken to when I got to 12.

Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia so after weeks of unbelievably poor broadband and customer service there was an offer from you to resolve the situation with a web chat at 11am, with a link being provided here. No link. I’m lost for words
-
Michael Buckley (@MikeBuckley2) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia I am trying to access live chat as I have blackspots in house and would like WiFi boosters from Virgin.
