-
Andy McGill (@andrewjmcgill) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia I have been without broadband all day, a day after you sent me a letter about price increases, an increase for what, even poorer service!!!!
-
Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way
-
Rebekah Jones (@RebekahP1nk) reported from Prenton, England@virginmedia soooo what's wrong this time?? You are just about up the cost to astronomical amounts and now the broadband goes down again ..
-
Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England@virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.
-
Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England@virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia I have a booster. It was sent to me last Spring because of previous problems with TV in this room.
-
Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England@DoctorLemma Well done . Always had great service from @virginmedia just cant afford them anymore.
-
lloyd #utft (@111O1O1O11O) reported from Wallasey, EnglandNo service in CH44 for 2 days last week, back on for 2, then off again today. No text updates but service status says a fix by 20.00. Won't happen though will it? @virginmedia
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.
-
Kevin Dudson (@Duddydudson) reported from Wigan, England@NigelJTurner @virginmedia Same for me, I can cancel or change my package by the 28th of march then get a 19% increase on my new package on the 1st of April. Only had my contract 5 months.being **** Turpind here!!!
-
Amanda Ralph (@aralph50) reported from Liverpool, EnglandPlease sort this out. You charge enough, surely we are entitled to a service that actually works??@virginmedia #virginmedia
-
Tim Cooke 🇺🇦 (@timmycooke) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia Both wired and wireless. We've had 8 engineers out, a rewire, new hub and still endless drop outs. Was told finally it was an upload issue from the amp that supplied the box on the street. But still we're having issues. The 150 number is joke, make it simple!!!
-
owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.
-
Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Sorry I really don’t get it. A few hours ago I was told that your team would investigate etc. Now you’re telling you don’t have any access so I’m left to hang on with no one from VM being able to update me. Is that it?
-
Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England@virginmedia Thats just an update to say they are dealing with the issue, people want to know what the issue was and why it is taking so long to repair, there is a continuous extension to repair time and your customers at least deserve detailed information
-
Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England@virginmedia There's no point raising a complaint is there, as you won't comprnsate? Other reputable oroviders offer a back-up 4 or 5g device to kick in if their main broadband goes down, to keep the service running. Not VM though - it's just all really poor customer service innit?
-
Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England@virginmedia I'm checking online and it's saying there is an issue with the TV, but saying broadband is fine. I've had constant disconnections throughout the day for 2 weeks now. It works for a few minutes then goes off. What is going on?
-
Emma Latham (@EmsydilemsyL) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia advice please! I’ve been a customer for over ten years and am also an o2 customer and my account is now going up by another £12 per month on a pretty basic package! Phoned twice and been told that someone will get back to me with a new price package - still nothing
-
Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England@virginmedia Yes got the update thanks but not helpful receiving a text to say issue resolved, service has been off for 14 hours now, any background to reason why? Its a massive area to be out with no explanation
