    Neil Simpson (@nippa77) reported from Coventry, England

    @virginmedia They are merely stating it is an “inconsistent fault” No explanation as to why and what is being done to resolve the problem

  • zcobb
    Stephen Cobb, #FBPE 🇺🇦 (@zcobb) reported from Coventry, England

    Me: Can you tell your supervisor that this email looks a lot like a phishing email? Support Person @virginmedia: I know, a lot of people have said that.

    Beard Punk (@BeardPunk) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi. The team have also said that the issue isn’t resolved though? Everything has been reset multiple times this morning and still the same issue.

  • EvanD
    Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done that. My connection drops out for a minute or so every 30-60 mins. Hard to replicate. My account has notes regarding the reason why the credit was given last time. Ideally I don’t want to wait so long for the same issue to be fixed.

    Garry (@paragaz) reported from Streetly, England

    @virginmedia hey. I am trying to speak to someone about my account but turns out nobody recognises my account number. Can you PM me to organise calling me please. I've tried the text message service

    @virginmedia the most unreliable service going! Sky should be rubbing their hands together knowing that this shower of **** is their main competition.

    John (@jfrncs_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I have now tried unsuccessfully for 12 hours to use the WhatsApp service as again it goes around in circles if I am not immediately available. The number you helpfully provided hangs up after sending a link… please advise how I talk to someone about my account.

    Kev Maslin (@kevmaslin) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia your treatment of us over a Lasting Power of Attorney issue has been appalling. Your people have actually SHREDDED a document costing hundreds of pounds despite us being told it had been returned. CISAS has been invoked and your CEO will be told . @MoneyTelegraph

    @virginmedia Sending me over bill again and again n customer service is even more worst

  • Stephen12857059
    Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

    So 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.

  • Gridstip
    Michael Edmund Kelly (@Gridstip) reported

    @virginmedia I can cancel the TV portion of my contract ? Thanks, that's useful information

  • basquildol
    Basquildol 💙 (@basquildol) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, is there an outage causing issues on the APP catch-up/box sets? The sound is in and out on all programs & films on these services, but there no sound issue with live programming on the APP. Can someone advise or provide help to resolve? Thanks

  • Louiseboxall
    Louise Boxall (@Louiseboxall) reported

    @virginmedia My parents can’t watch their virgin media that they’re paying for because the picture is pixilated picture! Aparently they won’t even look into it unless the agree to the new 360! Disgraceful! So much for customer service!!

  • kolodog1
    John Hatcher (@kolodog1) reported

    @virginmedia the service with the WiFi or TV services in the BR5 is poor. 3 times in the last week one of them has went down, today it's the WiFi again.

  • muffy_merkin
    muffy_merkin (@muffy_merkin) reported

    @MrBenGrant @virginmedia Ditch them, I did last year. Switched to community fibre, borrowed my mates apple box and now I pay £19 a month instead of the £95 Virgin was going to charge. They even make cancelling tortuous and intrusive. Horrible company with horrible customer service.

  • hrcastle
    HRCastle (@hrcastle) reported

    @virginmedia is there an issue in BH21 area? I’ve given up trying to speak to a human on phone or live chat. I’ve had WiFi issues for the past week.

  • mec337
    mec337 (@mec337) reported

    @virginmedia I’m busy composing an email for ofcom about how I’m forced to pay for a phone service to be able to have a package that’s overpriced. Yet when I actually want to use it, it’s broken- repeatedly. Then forced to go through stupid phone menus and wait >30 mins

  • Slothlord_Luke
    Luke (@Slothlord_Luke) reported

    @virginmedia On the other hand @youfibre offered the same as what im getting but £20 a month reduction, only 12 months contract and a new wifi 7 already on order without needing to battle with customer service. 10/10

  • tfd1977
    trev (@tfd1977) reported

    @virginmedia service is getting worse by the day nearly a month now and still broadband keeps dropping..apparently engineers are fixing the problem! Every few days get a message saying fixed then next day down again…sick and tired and crap service
