    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp It's residential customers whose service is blocked. Virgin Business do provide provide broadband to our premises. This is causing major issues for us. Help!

  • RobLawler840229
    Rob Lawler (@RobLawler840229) reported

    @virginmedia had no service since the 13th May and just been told that the problem won’t be fixed until the 26th May after being pushed back from the 20th do I qualify for the auto compensation ??

  • RetroGamer90
    RetroGamerX (@RetroGamer90) reported

    @Stephencheatley @virginmedia We had the full VM package quite a few years back but always had issues with their tv service. We ended up going with Sky and havent had any problems since then. We kept the broadband with Virgin because we get 1GB for £38 month with Netflix included. Shop around mate 👍

  • cyberbob1uk
    Cyberbob1uk (@cyberbob1uk) reported

    @hamsterpranks @virginmedia Use your cooling off period and get out of that contract. I'm currently on my 5th outage in 6 weeks.

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    So, it appears that @virginmedia has cut off my Internet as threatened. My crime? I haven't had the time or energy to set up a new router they delivered last Friday. One they insisted on even though the current one works. I'm paying for a service they've decided to end

  • cane2147
    michael jackson (@cane2147) reported

    @virginmedia will you sort your internet out 5 times I’ve been disconnected in the last hour £164 a month for this repeated internet and tv issue is unacceptable

  • dollDCFC
    Dermot O'Leary (@dollDCFC) reported

    @Benleo I know this will be of little conciliation to you but I recently had an issue with my @virginmedia broadband. It required a new Hub. I phoned on a Tuesday late afternoon and they booked a call out for the Thursday PM. They arrived on time and fitted the new Hub. I had no issues.

  • brexit_blue
    Gordon (@brexit_blue) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Try dealing with @SkyUK Ben. Indian Call Centre! No words! After 30+ years as a Sky customer our Sky contract was terminated in December all because we moved home and needed a Sky Stream box instead of Q but cost increase was staggering so terminated. Never heard from Sky again.

  • RobLawler840229
    Rob Lawler (@RobLawler840229) reported

    @virginmedia I have been on the home today and advised of the fault in my area if the fault is not fixed by the 26th that will be 2 weeks without any internet service as I have broadband and tv but as the broadband is down the tv won’t work
