    @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 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 broadband speeds are awful - who should I go with @SkyUK or @BTGroup

  • AViTSCJ Scott Jackson (@AViTSCJ) reported from Gravesend, England

    @virginmedia why is it when you request cancellation of service via phone and getting cut off mid call , then sending and email and also trying to chase via web chat which I also sent my request for cancellation and then move out two months later . They keep the account open 🤬

  • KyleFair1985 Kyle Simon Fair (@KyleFair1985) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia additionally we spoke to four advisors, who told us a ‘manager’ would call back in 24/48 hours - this never happened. What sort of company is this? She is SEVENTY FIVE years old, shame on you. Now she is stuck in her contract. It’s been one month

  • Rachryder13 Rachael ryder (@Rachryder13) reported

    @virginmedia what a piece of **** you

  • jdfzk Joolz (@jdfzk) reported

    Very poor and disappointing service from @virginmedia today. Was on hold on the "chat" function for 2 hrs 30 mins with only automated responses..then told by the "bot" that it's another 45 mins wait. Will be looking at options for switching now.

  • ollyknights Olly Knights (@ollyknights) reported

    @virginmedia But the team never called me back???

  • dancoot Dan Coot (@dancoot) reported

    @virginmedia please can you pass my details to your complaints team. I have been try to solve WiFi issues for months now and have been waiting 2 weeks for an Engineer to call me. Not hear anything.

  • DanPatonMusic Daniel Paton (@DanPatonMusic) reported

    If there’s a network problem in the area, it is separate from the specific problem getting power to my hub. Why should I have to wait even more time?! The appointment is already four days out! @virginmedia will you be offering any compensation for the days without service?

  • KyleFair1985 Kyle Simon Fair (@KyleFair1985) reported

    @virginmedia Sounds good to me, in the meantime, my nan will cancel the direct debits of her mobile and Virgin media. It’s been atrocious

  • DanPatonMusic Daniel Paton (@DanPatonMusic) reported

    What does this, sent by text, mean @virginmedia? “Hi, it's Virgin Media. We've put your service visit on hold while we investigate a network problem affecting your services. We'll update you when this is fixed.”

  • BLOOD202 Stephen (@BLOOD202) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, services are working fine but the engineer told us he would come back to us with a date for a permanent fix for this issue within 24 hours but we haven't heard anything.. Can you help please??

  • nowainnogain Wayne Kay (@nowainnogain) reported

    @virginmedia It seems it’s the electric that is out which feeds your network, apologises.
