    @virginmedia hi I’ve received a written response to a complaint from VM but with no way to reply other than the usual customer service number which doesn’t offer an option for this. Can you supply another telephone number or physical address to reply to?

    @virginmedia broadband down again in Southend. Had to pay for a BT WiFi day pass so my wife can continue working from home.

    @virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

  • MrsDyer25

    @virginmedia I have checked and there are no faults. I am still having issues over a week later and this is totally unacceptable! Two children trying to take part of zoom lessons which they keep dipping in and out of as the connection just keeps dropping! Unable to get through to you on 150

  • TheSugg
    David Sugg (@TheSugg) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia hiya, another night of constant router/connection restarts and problems. Multiple engineer visits, senior engineer visits, call centre calls, new router and £160+ a month down the drain. I don’t want to switch provider but you’re not leaving me much option

  • hungoverdrawn
    Robert Shaw (@hungoverdrawn) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

  • RWheelhouse1
    rachel Wheelhouse 🇺🇦 (@RWheelhouse1) reported from Chelmsford, England

    @virginmedia 6 days since moving to Virgin, we are having issues, the WiFi won't reach our outside cameras. After completing the troubleshooting guides + waiting for over an hour for a chat agent + 30 mins on the phone, we still haven't spoken to a human....not impressed

    @virginmedia @nickgooner80 I wanna know why my broadband has been all day! I do not want to be paying for a service I cannot use!!!!!! 🤬🤬 I have a bored 6 year old. SORT IT OUT!!! And I can’t check my service status as I can’t access the internet even on my 4G or the virgin media app.

    roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

    Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve sorted the issue. But now there’s no way of cancelling the engineer! Can’t get through on phone. Appointment isn’t showing on their account, so can’t cancel there. WhatsApp is useless - been waiting for an Agent to be available since about 1pm!

  • keldaaa
    Kelda🥤 (@keldaaa) reported from Canvey Island, England

    @virginmedia I can’t seem to find an email address or postal address for general queries, can you please provide me with one? My nan is now in a care home with dementia and we need to cancel her landline, broadband & mobile on her behalf so need to write to you to give details.

    Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported

    Day 23 without our @virginmedia broadband (or phone, or TV) so I’ve celebrated by spending 90 minutes on hold with the “Customer Services” team and responding to the email from the Complaints team telling me that they had fixed my issue (spoiler: they hadn’t). Pathetic!

  • CliveR39
    CliveR (@CliveR39) reported

    As a @virginmedia customer for a decade or so, VERY disappointing to find a problem with @SkySports Sky + red button service, taking some TEN DAYS and still not fixed @Ofcom

    @craigy1977 @bmstewart2004 @virginmedia When your contract is due for renewal tell them you're done & you're not paying £100 any more I did & got my bill down to £64 18 months later I did it again, got a speed increase from 300mb to 1.2 gig, Netflix & price down to £53 Might not be £12 but it's a saving

  • _DundeePerfect_
    A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported

    @virginmedia Read things accurately I never said that I do. I would not be mad enough to think I can run a Game and Stream a Picture in 4K using wifi... I don't use wifi in the house at all, TVs and PC are wired, only my Mobile connects to wifi but only to save Data when at Home.

    @virginmedia - resorting to contacting you here as other channels have failed to help me get a connection to your services even though neighbours have it. Please reply in direct message - thank you
