    @virginmedia get enough money from me and all the others get enough, from the rest of the paying public. So stop being greedy, stop paying the Premier clubs so much and wages will have to come down. There, sorted!

    @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

    @virginmedia I’ve now been told that there is no complaints team, despite the fact I spoke to them earlier. How is it possible to be so poor?

    Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia No, we’re way past all that now, this has been going on for months/years. Now, I can’t even get to talk to anyone. I’ve requested you change my box. You haven’t. What is the head office address for service of legal documents please?

  • rrrussboy
    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

    Geoff Watkins (@DronePilotGeoff) reported from Gillingham, England

    @fasurveyors @virginmedia I have to say; I’m normally pretty pleased with @virginmedia internet. It’s normally fast and reliable. But last couple of days has been awful. It’s getting too expensive as well

    @ghotographyuk @virginmedia You can’t get help, virgins customer service team are incapable of doing their jobs correctly and to be honest they just dont care

  • johnson13021989
    John johnson (@johnson13021989) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Virgin Media are literally the scum of the earth, had issues with them before. I’d rather be without internet if they were the last ISP on earth.

  • happymum2005
    Shauna Campbell (@happymum2005) reported

    @PeteUK7 @LucyGoBag @virginmedia That’s appalling. Though for even their ‘apology response’ to get community noted is quite a spectacular fail!

  • daddytoatribe
    Kyle (@daddytoatribe) reported

    @virginmedia If you can offer a deal to a new customer you should be able to offer the same deal for existing customers. This is why your retention rate is diabolical because the introductory offers expire and the new offer is 300% more than what they was paying. Should be illegal

  • markrmifsud
    markrmifsud (@markrmifsud) reported

    @virginmedia This is beyond a joke. Estimated fix 1st June 12:05

  • RobDew8
    Rob Dew (@RobDew8) reported

    @spirit_evolving @virginmedia They are a shambles. I have had no internet since Sunday. 2 engineer appointments have not turned up, waiting in again today for engineer but not confident. Worst thing I did was move to Virgin !

    Scotty 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 🏳️‍🌈 #YES (@ScottyS396) reported

    "There's a broadband issue in your area" Aye, no **** @virginmedia. But there was no issues till your engineer turned up at lunchtime and started fiddling with the cabinets! 😩

  • R111_Gaz
    Gaz (@R111_Gaz) reported

    @palmertrees @Amy_90_x Well, yes, just like people pay for Sky et al. Point is, its normally an extra fee channel, but not this afternoon, any Virgin Media customer can have it.

  • gozzie83
    Gordon Stewart (@gozzie83) reported

    @virginmedia How do I lock it down so people watching can’t add things to my bill without me knowing? I haven’t had an email or anything even to confirm it happened so is there an additional way to stop it happening in future?

  • NathanCourtney9
    N (@NathanCourtney9) reported

    @virginmedia internets down again. The reliability of this MULTI BILLION pound business is crazy. Im super glad they’ve partnered up with my network provider @O2 who are also just as unreliable. My decisions as an adult are awfully bad.
