@virginmedia You’ve sent me a link to explain how I can raise an official complaint. One option is to give you a call? Something I have now tried on 3 separate occasions. Did you not read the thread? #Virginmedia

@virginmedia After being on hold for over 50 minutes I had to end the call. I’m literally back to square one. That’s the problem.

@virginmedia I’ve detailed that I have been lied to and expressed strong dissatisfaction with your customer service and your reply is to check if there are any issues in my area? Like I said, I’ll await a manager to call (if that actually happens) and add this to the complaint. Really poor.

@virginmedia Hi John, when I tried to raise a complaint yesterday, Virgin immediately closed it so that has now gone off to the regulator. I was however promised that the field manager would ring me and he hasn’t.

@virginmedia hi do you know why our signal on tv keeps dropping on v6 box ? It happens regularly despite service checks saying no issues. Tv goes black screen and says no signal and can’t do anything. No matter I’d love tv or recorded.

Hey @virginmedia. Spent the last few weeks getting drop outs, slow service and all types of malarky. I hate being this guy but also don’t want to spend hours on the phone/chat bots to get lip service. This tweet is a Hail Mary. How do I get to U to help.

That frustrating (looong) moment when your ISP connection is so poor that you can’t even connect to the ISP. Yes I’m talking about you @virginmedia

@virginmedia Hi - we lost power earlier however, we still haven’t regained WiFi connection. Can someone look into this for me please? The WiFi symbol is flashing green with a permanent green power light. We have checked our connection and can’t seem to fix the issue.

@tarajadeadamsxx @virginmedia Agreed there's no way I can be off work for that long either. Also the service status pages still tell us nothing!
