Hey @itv and @virginmedia. Could you please highlight the #WeMakeEvents campaign along with your footage and advertising of V festival coverage? As without support there won’t be another one to broadcast. #lightinred

@virginmedia All fine now - but TBH we're probably going to cancel. Our contract is up its going up from £70 to £85/month. To sign a new deal is a £82. Your offer to new customers is £45. I can't be bothered with this hassle every few months so am looking at sky. Thanks for checking though 👍

@virginmedia I have a support query which I have submitted via the Virgin Media app and I have tried calling but I’m getting no where. Can you provide a contact channel that will actually get me the support I need?

@virginmedia 1hour waiting the first time and disconnected. This is the second time, still on the phone and waiting 55min. It is pretty much the whole day wasted trying to talk to customer services. Can you please help?

@virginmedia The only detail I’ve had is as follows and it’s hardly detailed. Please can someone tell me what is the issue and where, with timescales. “Hi, it's Virgin Media here. The installation is kept on hold due to construction issue.”

@virginmedia My husband has been unable to contact anyone at customer service. It seems our router has an intermittent fault. Please advise ASAP. My husband is a key worker (electricity generation), having a stable internet connection, is essential. 2/2

@virginmedia what is so difficult about customer service these days? Spent the last 4 days going through the repetitive process of checking out WiFi connection, eventually got a number to call TL get cut off after a 30 min wait! Not impressed!

What’s wrong with Virgin Media? Unable to access my emails for several days now. Virgin say they’re working on it but the problem’s still not sorted. Is anyone else suffering this acute inconvenience?

@virginmedia I’ve called, but that provided no help. I was told I’d get a callback from a team closer to the issue in 24 hours - which has since passed. Honestly, not a good start and I’ve not got service yet!

@virginmedia It was not down to being ‘unsuccessful’ following high demand. It was because your app wasn’t working! Apologies don’t cut it.

@virginmedia Not entirely sure what it is you want me to show you. When I go through the process of checking the line it then asks me to login and then tells me that my devices either have interference or poor connection. Then if I continue it tells me to move the router (I can't)

@virginmedia have pressed the options for home move. On call for 30 minutes waiting for answer. Is this normal ? Would be nice if you knew where you are in the queue. Moving to new house and can’t get Virgin in that area. So just need to stop the service into the old home pls.

@virginmedia The complaint was about the fact one of your engineers at the time, whilst I was at work, went on my property, disconnected my cables and then left without re connecting, why the complaint? There was nothing wrong with my broadband, no job request nothing.
