Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia I need to speak to a manager who can help. They don't seem to want to. I have a contract phone, it won't charge, it's under guarantee, I'm paying you and you won't help.

Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia I’ve had two lengthy phone calls with your ‘technical support’ people; it briefly got quicker then stopped working completely. On their instructions I’ve changed some settings on my router which apparently may take 48 hours to fully take effect…

grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England@virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. “Computer says no”. If you can’t see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. I’m inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.

DJ Chaka Finchos 🐏 (@DJChakaFinchos) reportedSo glad I screenshotted my whole chat with @virginmedia because I knew the “agent” I spoke to at would mess up my house move by the stupid questions they were asking. Cut my old house off (that I’m still in) a day early.
-
Gen X (@trail_71) reported@virginmedia Down in exeter - my TV screen keeps dropping out to black for a fraction then back on again - is line with the problems you’re having ?
-
Nik (@ThingsByNik) reported@SparkyLotus @youfibre I’ve had You Fibre and Virgin Media knocking last few last weeks, so seems it’s still a thing for broadband sales. I always say that I will never buy anything that someone knocks at my house to sell.
-
Ben (@benfromstoke) reported@virginmedia I've just upgraded to a higher wifi speed because your previous one was awful. Why on earth does the new one keep disconnecting every 2 seconds?
-
Stranger in a Strange Land (@MVenvyEsq) reported@virginmedia Failed appointments and not understanding the problem and reporting to saying it has been resolved by claiming I had a different problem. Your complaints dept on it as we speak . We shall see.
