    How am I supposed to book an appointment for an engineer to look at my installation. Fed up of it going down because of not getting the service I’m paying for. Nothing on your website or my virgin media only offers of trying to make more money for a crap service.

  • 295zee zshn (@295zee) reported

    @cwhatidone @virginmedia they slid into my DMs right after. acknowledge me with your chest. Maybe the word ******* triggered a response procedure.

  • deadstar37 Vicky 💙 (@deadstar37) reported

    Hmmm feel bad @virginmedia just txt to ask if I could install the new modem myself instead of sending an engineer next week. I answered no so they’re still coming out. I just know I won’t be able to do it successfully and then we’ll end up paying for something not being used

  • tinaseskis Tina Seskis (@tinaseskis) reported

  • doghandleruk Just conform to the lockdown.... for Paul (@doghandleruk) reported

    @virginmedia I'm getting at least a call a day from 03454541111 with one of your clients trying to get services. Someone has obviously keyed my number in to your work from home system and it's trying to patch through to a CSR. Help! Before I start talking ***** to your customers.

  • Deborahn23 Deborah newman (@Deborahn23) reported

    @virginmedia Also asked about disconnecting and now want to charge £240 !! As i was promised internet would work so you are not supplying the service im paying for

  • louis_collins02 Louis Collins (@louis_collins02) reported

    @virginmedia I pressed to add more data to my mobile account it then said there was a problem, so I did it again with the same result. I tried once more and it said it had added the data, when I went back it appears all the times I had pressed to add more data had gone through.

  • GarleCarol Carol Garle (@GarleCarol) reported

    @virginmedia Any chance you could answer my calls, stop hanging up- I have no password this account is years old. You have in correctly billed me in November and I have tried on and off ever since - No answers no response to formal complaint - just pathetic

  • ricey1974 john rice ✊ (@ricey1974) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia trying to cancel my subscription,got cut from your call centre then finally get through again to be told I’ve been sent an email to confirm cancellation.Not received an email.

  • KiranT_1507 Kiran_TND (@KiranT_1507) reported

    @virginmedia So, when ever i ring them they said it will take 6-8 weeks but its almost been 3 months and i’ve keep calling them as the speed of dongle was very low, so i can only use limited service. However, they did provide mw with the compensation but still its taking too long to install.
