-
Simon Vargeson (@Si_Vargeson) reported@virginmedia is it usual practice to delay installations without communicating to your new customers? You’ve currently missed 2 instal dates and no comms to let me know to avoid waiting at home for your arrival…. Customer service seem to be unable to provide any detail too😡
-
Nick S. (nickncs) (@nickncs_cP) reported@virginmedia something is wrong with your internet network. maybe DNS server issue? some sites down on all devices but able to reach them if using a vpn.
-
Knapp (@KnappTweets) reported@virginmedia fix your damn WiFi, I pay like 100 a month for some bullshit that don’t work
-
krono aka a dogtor in 2 years (@octoexp490) reported@DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Telecom contracts in this country don't make any sense to me. Anywhere else in the world, the more loyal you are to the operator, the better deals they give you to keep you as a customer.

Jessica Simpson 😺🐶🐾 (@Jess_Simpson645) reportedTo @virginmedia- Many thanks to your Technician who came out today following the outage in my area. Although I was back online by this time he checked over all the equipment and settings, and also discovered that the router needed changing-which he did - very polite and efficient man. I don’t use my real name on here for safety and security reasons, but if you want to send me a DM, I will let you know.

THE Rev. Quantum Bigfoot ♿️ #FLTG OG Anti-RGB OAP (@RevQntmBigfoot) reported@sephiroth17181 @virginmedia Current ISP only supplies Eero routers & they are terrible but have to keep one on hand in case external connection drops to optical box as they won’t even raise an issue unless their router connected (configured it so don’t have to change anything on the network if have to)

Shifty (@Shifty_) reported@DeviateDefiant @MoneySupermkt Welcome to Virgin Media, in this house was the same been with them since NTL days and still had better deals for new customers over there loyal paying customers so we switched to Sky. i have to say from my experience had 0 issues.

BaM (@saucinsauce) reported@DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt did something similar with me although not that type of crazy hike, what i will do is get my g/f to sign up as a new customer to get the deal and when that expires i'll then sign up again
