Mike B (@BonesE78) reported@virginmedia SERIOUSLY SORT YOUR ******* INTERNET OUT!!!! I need to talk about my contract ASAP,sick of this **** service!!!
-
APTS Archive (@APTSArchive) reportedQuick update following my post - I did have a DM discussion with VirginMedia. Apparently all refunds are process via cheque payments and posted to you - and I’ve got to wait up to 45 days - yes 45 days for the cheque. If I’ve not received it by then I’ve got to contact them again and they will investigate why - probably waiting another 45 days. This is disgusting behaviour @virginmedia, despite it being so called company policy. You took £1,070 from our account despite assurance the equipment return date had been extended, causing us to be overdrawn, yet you now hang on to our money for up to 45 days! It doesn’t take 45 days for a computer to print a cheque!

‘ (@IVIVoVo) reported@virginmedia Internet down last week and now down again today what the hell is going on ?
-
Rob (@robiand) reported@virginmedia TV and Broadband broken for over a week after your engineers damaged the cable to my house whilst installing a new customer.

sharon thomson (@ShrnThomson) reportedOut of curiosity @virginmedia why are you not replacing my router that you have said has a fault which I only know about because I asked you for help but a colleague of mine was contacted & had his router replaced with no problems? I understand part of the problem is my fault
-
GW (@GGWilliams72) reported@virginmedia @Bomber19631 I had Stream Box and Broadband set up yesterday. Neither working today, tried Cust Serv’s on hold over 45 mins and still no answer! These people are as garbage as their services, spend your money elsewhere. I’m going back to @SkyUK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
-
Swindon! (@swindon124759) reported@virginmedia when I press the red button to access sky sports plus I no longer receive an error message. Has my box been successfully updated to fix this issue and I should now expect no further issues from this incident? Thanks @Virgin
