@virginmedia 1. Why the neighbour would not have the same issues when the ‘issue’ is your automated phone system is beyond my comprehension! 2. It is not a neighbours responsibility to resolve a phone issue for the bill payer. 3. Through an internal contact I now have an engineer visit bkd.

Nice one @virginmedia I've missed all the 2nd half of the match now. No BB, no Tivo. And your still billing me a higher rate than was agreed when I did the tests which say no issues in my area. Tried resets.

@simonrim @virginmedia Ended up removing them from our lives due to atrocious (being generous here) customer service. Even now they are threatening £130 charge due to them not sending out the box return kit.

@Dabooka @skybiggerpic @virginmedia It was my second attempt to be fair. First time they reduced the price rise to £1.50 per month, then I rang back a few days later to cancel. Found a better deal elsewhere but price was the driver for wanting to leave. Lovely @virginmedia agent was able to help!

@virginmedia This lithium service you use is to get people off social media. It obfuscates and is unable to resolve anything. I'll take my chance in the legal system and with independent ombudsman.

@NatalieeeLoweee @virginmedia I had this issue. Got home from work to watch charity shield #MCILIV after avoiding the score and it was unwatchable because of the sound issues for me so I gave up. Will just watch #motd tonight instead. #nothappy

16 mins on hold to @virginmedia before I got through to someone who said she needed to transfer me to another department, the recorded message of that department said the number no longer exists and gave me the original phone number to ring! Some customer service that!!!

If @virginmedia offer you a 6 month free upgrade do not accept it. It is a way of locking you into a further contract. Poor service as always

@virginmedia The person that put me on hold said it looked like there was a problem in our area and tried to put me through to technical help but after music droning on for ages it just stopped. Have given up and watching a dvd instead

@virginmedia I use wired. I've been through the websites process many times. Have had a engineer come out and swap my home hub 3. I've scanned my internal network and found zero issues. But still get latency spikes

@virginmedia Her account has never been set up properly online. She gets paper bills each month but the bill number isn’t recognised when I try and set her up online. She has no recognised email, username or password. She pays a lot each month and the tv isn’t working + hasn’t been for ages

@ShandyDHarrison A few years ago Virgin Media put Threads and the War Game on their on-demand service. I made the mistake of watching both of them. I had to watch an entire series of Father Ted before bedtime just to try and dilute the effects.

@virginmedia why are you sending out Hub 4's when it's not possible to run diagnostic tests on them. Broadband either down AGAIN in M32 or the hub4 is bobbins 😵

Hey @virginmedia - I’m still waiting on the WiFi extender that I had to order from you (at additional cost) weeks ago because my new broadband service from you is pants. What’s the deal? Gotta say, I’m really not happy with the service so far since I left BT 😡
