    Sam Millington (@cranworth791) reported from Rawmarsh, England

    @virginmedia Yeah that’s fine, or just a phone number / person to deal with? It’s my parents business and they have their property engineers coming out to view the issue on Monday. I assume they will be in touch themselves regarding the issues. Luckily it’s just rain water, and not sewage.

    Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person . All that needs doing is the issue of a new bill without the £35 activation fee. This is becoming the worst decision I’ve ever made in relation to switching broadband

    Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

    @virginmedia I’ve had that email. I’ve also had another email this morning saying they’re sorry to hear I’m unhappy with my broadband speed. I’m not! I’m unhappy with a call out charge being applied, which was promised to be reversed and never has been!

    @virginmedia 00435069032 India accent guy phoned, He said 'He said Hello I'm virgin media, hello, how are you today', I put phone down. Phone Call Scam. #phone #call #scam

  • chrislove_89
    Chris Love (@chrislove_89) reported

    @virginmedia 4x since I’ve moved across from BT, the service has been completely down in my area, this in space of just a few months. This has affected exam revision, kids bedtime routines, among other things. Terrible, pathetic service and can’t wait until my contract expires!

  • phorsfield
    phorsfield (@phorsfield) reported

    @virginmedia I've had no broadband since 1pm today, tv channels working bar the services that require Internet, reboot hub plus reset. Are there any issues in RG12 area?

  • daisylou1972
    Daisy ****** (@daisylou1972) reported

    @trapdoor456 @virginmedia Yes, we’ve got it and I’ve found it way faster, and more reliable than Sky. Haven’t had to go through customer services yet, so can’t comment on that. 12 months in and not even had to reset the router.

  • NgoziGift15
    Loyseda (@NgoziGift15) reported

    @virginmedia I've not been able to get my Internet up and running since Monday I'd like to proceed to terminate my contract as I've had serious frustrations trying to get my home Internet connected.

  • je_durrant
    James Durrant (@je_durrant) reported

    @virginmedia I did that earlier today and your colleague confirmed nothing can be done until 17th August, over a month since this started. Now you’re saying it’s £1660 to exit a service I can’t even use. “Taking responsibility” and “monitoring” doesn’t solve my problem

    @virginmedia hi, how can I get my login for HBO max? I have TNT sports. Thanks

    Holding this amount ransom? Will you provide me interest and further compensation on the amount of time I’ve wasted calling your company and explaining this issue? @virginmedia

  • FoxJereny
    Jeremy Darby-Fox 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧 (@FoxJereny) reported

    @virginmedia any chance you might actually get the internet working in Didcot anytime soon? Been several days now. Estimated fix date keeps being pushed back. Getting ridiculous now. It’s not cheap paying our bill for no internet
