Oxford Wolf /\_/\ 🔶 (@Oxfordwolf) reported from Oxfordshire, EnglandThe whole house was just woken up by @virginmedia who decided to make a sales call at 7:45am this morning. So much for a peaceful lie in. I panicked when someone called so early on a Saturday morning, I thought it must be a family emergency. Thanks @VirginMediaCorp!

Roxanne Selby (@roxanneselby) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia is there a problem in Oxford? Video calls on team dreadful, and connection very inconsistent.
-
Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia And yes I called to your outage number, apparently there is no known issue in the area. Even though last night at 11.30pm in the app the status check showed every service is down, even though they weren't down last night. This happens only during working hours.

-
Bex Allen (@travellingbex) reported from Oxfordshire, England4yrs with @virginmedia never had a problem. But now that I do their 'customer service' sucks, endless cycles of talking to bots on their website, or being on hold for hours on the phone! 3 days of this just trying to get the Internet I'm paying for! #frustrated #virginmedia
-
Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia Hi there. Never got my 5 GB SIM card as stated in my contract. Been waiting for over a month and never got it! Impossible to get through customer services to speak to a human...

-
Adam (@Adamox2020) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia your service needs improvement ASAP. Shocking how many times it goes on and off throughout the day.

Kim Marie Pike (@HollySquirrel) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia We need this sorting, as there are 3 of us working from home, involving video meetings. How do we get in touch with you to sort our services out? Our TIVo box is also slow to respond and on-demand isn’t working, due to internet problems. Help. Now. Please.

Fabia Cerra - Actor/Dancer/Choreographer/Writer (@Fabiaburlesque) reported from Oxfordshire, England@TheO2 and @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog Be careful of this, they say they will send you a free SIM card. First off, it never arrived. Secondly, they rack up a bill baring in mind I’ve not used it. Then put it on your credit rating. So glad my three year contract ends with o2 soon.
-
Amelia (@Amelia30549431) reported from Abingdon, England@LaurakBuzz @virginmedia They can slow down your service in busy times. Dodgy. It’s in the contract though
-
Amanda Davies (@AmandaD00131015) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia Then why did the call handler say 48 hours.? 28 days is unacceptable & no one has contacted me to find out details, so how can they resolve my issue?!?
-
Adam (@Adamox2020) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia shocking WiFi issues in the Oxfordshire area. Sort it out. Its been on and off for months now. Fix it quickly. No excuses please. It's annoying and frustrating 😒
