  • MrGraemeSmith GRAEME SMITH (@MrGraemeSmith) reported from Liverpool, England

  • wheels_71 Brian Wheeler (@wheels_71) reported

    @virginmedia Hilarious, having been told by one of your managers yesterday that the pre-install team work from 0800-1800 today, now I am told that they are not working today. Does anybody know what they are doing? Seriously?

  • bodgedsavage Will Savage (@bodgedsavage) reported

    @Maikkeruu I'm assuming this is Virgin Media? Ive had issues for almost two weeks, it's a joke. Remember you can get at least £8 for every day with scuffed service and even more If you have no service at all. I expect they'll give you more compensation given what your job entails!

  • quezza3 me (@quezza3) reported

    @virginmedia I didn't know there was one, I was just doing it via the bit where it says still having issues... And going through the steps from there

  • wheels_71 Brian Wheeler (@wheels_71) reported

    @virginmedia Another 20mins wasted. Got through, ask to speak to pre-install team. Get told 'I'll put you through,' speak to someone from the 'movers' team. 'Oh sorry, I'll put you through,' click.....line goes dead. Do the pre-install team exist? Is it only 1 person? #poor

  • gamerchick73 Jane Binns (@gamerchick73) reported

    @virginmedia the brown box cover outside as broken and the wires are exposed. How can I get this fixed?

  • paulbnorris Paul B Norris (@paulbnorris) reported

    @virginmedia Are you? Your website is still reporting no faults. It’s like you don’t want to put in writing that it takes you a week to fix an issue.

  • wheels_71 Brian Wheeler (@wheels_71) reported

    @virginmedia Some observations: 1. You insist there is a password on the acct. I have not set one up! 2. Your staff are incapable of transferring calls between departments 3. The pre-installation team appear to be a figment of your imagination You fail consistently

  • Bazmotors Barrie Chalk (@Bazmotors) reported

    @virginmedia the broadband service has been very flaky for several days now in OX4 is there something going on. I called & reported it Thursflday but the service was up when you ran the test. Down minutes later. Please sort it.

  • mybelovedbeeduo elm☾ (@mybelovedbeeduo) reported

    @virginmedia get better internet service I switched years ago, also why you checking your indirects.

  • Ayizkitt James McMahon (@Ayizkitt) reported

    @virginmedia I'm trying to downgrade my package, but I am unable to use the phone due to work for the next while, so I'm trying to find a link to the live chat, but I just get sent in circles of unhelpful help topics. What am I supposed to do?
