@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

@virginmedia what’s the point of asking me to text when I’m ready to set up the new hub if your going to deactivate the old one before I’m ready!! Good job I have unlimited data on my mobile network!!

Wow Virgin media TV services are down nationwide due to a power outage. That's an awful lot of compensation.

@virginmedia You’ve now sent me the same unhelpful link about compensation 3 times. This will only compensate me if I have no service, and as I have a service (albeit 3mbps) this, as I’ve repeated several times, doesn’t help me. Another example of poor customer service

Hmm, #Skyglass is looking like a decent option if this #virginmedia outage becomes a habit.

@virginmedia how can I complain about internet reliability from your service. It has been appalling and inconsistent and seriously considering moving to another provider.

@virginmedia time now 11:14pm and certain channels still aren’t working, things said they have recorded when they haven’t, search function also still not working code c133. I think a refund is due to a lot of customers 👎🏻👎🏻#virginmediadown

@virginmedia I’ve now been told that there is no complaints team, despite the fact I spoke to them earlier. How is it possible to be so poor?

@virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africa… Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

@RobbieDurham @YodelOnline @virginmedia Check your contract as I think you have a 14/28 day cancelation policy. Believe me if you cancel they will try their utmost to help you. But only AFTER you decide to cancel, it didn’t work with me !

@virginmedia It would be the 5th time calling that number this week and they currently won't let me book in a technician directly. This is the 3rd time this week that a technician is needed to come in-person to try something new to fix it.

@virginmedia thanks for a letter saying my monthly bill is going up by £12 & a number to call to ‘chat’ about it. Pity when I tried to call there was a 1hr waiting queue. Top service. @skytv is looking more feasible & cheaper

@virginmedia @themandalorian Your live chat is awful! You promised me an offer, told me to wait until today and would be credited to my account and now you're saying you can't do it. Sort it out, I have all the screenshots.There was an offer to trade in any phone for £185 towards a Samsung S20FE

@virginmedia @MrAidanFinch I've followed the steps and done a router reset 5 times. No Internet access. Down detector shows wide virgin media issues. Virgin website also sees there's an issue in my area and lots of others. ETA on the virign website always says 18:30 same day but never seems to get sorted.
