    @virginmedia I’m going into my 5 week of problems with this crap company they say they will investigate but nothing, no compensation nothing.

    @virginmedia putting their tariffs up by 17.3% from 1st April - that’s 3.9% over the Retail Price Index Inflation of 13.4%…people getting nowhere near this sort of increase in their pay packets…hang your heads in shame especially in a cost of living crisis.

    @virginmedia Hi. Have no wifi (green light) and despite rebooting several times have a had no luck. This has happened after following your instruction to reboot for ‘faster speed’. Please advise asap - no issues in the area according to your website.

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Ah, so when there will be nothing to do or see you will become interested, is that the customer service ethos at VMB? Staggering, but not surprising

    @virginmedia Is there an outage in SW4? I checked the online status on your webpage, but it says there are no issues and yet I do not have internet at home.

    @virginmedia hi there, all of our services have dropped out in the last ten minutes, the router changed to a flashing red light without anybody touching it. I have rebooted the router and it comes back on but is still flashing red. No TV, no WiFi, no landline help please

    @virginmedia I've covered all the options; there aren't many. It tells me there are no problems in my area and then defaults to the bot chat.

    My day off and I still cannot watch Amazon prime due to virgin media delivering a ****** service. I really think we need to switch providers now. Enough is enough.

    @virginmedia It has just come back on. The annoying thing is your website said no problems, so I went through the usual, unplugging, checking cables etc. only for the website to be updated later. I should have learned by now.

    @MayorofLondon Shame they provide the most terrible customer service and treat you like they've got you by the short and curlies! Pay £400 a year for a service, custome service agents are like robots and stuff you for days when it doesn't work with no alternative offered! @virginmedia

    @virginmedia How does £8.40 a day cover 2 people unable to work for a full day? Still no contact from Virgin engineer or any comment on what the issue is? The time to fix the issue just keeps getting later.

  • gorgeousuk
    anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia I did and it said the service was ok. It’s now working after several times of going onto Amazon. I just don’t know why the service has become so poor recently

    Be careful if you ever want to cancel a @virginmedia account, I wrote to them, twice as per their T&C because you can never get through on chat or phone, they deny receipt of letters because you cant send recorded delivery so they just keep sending bills and chasing payments

    @virginmedia Never had we have such a terrible Internet service. Absolutely NEVER. "Can't find server.", for whatever page we want, day after day. Then it finds the server; next minute - puff! Gone! Absolutely abysmal.

    @biggle1908 Virgin media service is good & fast, great deals for new customers, but renewal time they are horrendous. Mine went from £94 to £247 overnight, call centres are useless & it's a massive battle to get to a sensible renewal price. Left them this year after 20 years because of this.

  • AhmadX_Official
    It's Ahmad (@AhmadX_Official) reported

    In 2003, 68-year-old Stan Beaton said goodbye to his beloved wife, Ruby, after she lost her battle with cancer. Among all the memories she left behind, one became his greatest treasure, a simple voicemail recorded on their home answering machine, preserving the sound of her voice. For years, Stan kept the same phone service for one reason alone: he was terrified that changing providers might erase that recording. Whenever grief became too heavy, he would play the message, finding comfort in hearing Ruby speak once again. Then, without warning, everything changed. During a routine system upgrade by Virgin Media, the voicemail was accidentally deleted. Stan later described the heartbreak: "When I realized it was gone, it felt like I had lost my wife a second time." Once the company understood what had happened, they launched an extraordinary recovery effort. Around a dozen engineers dedicated three full days to retrieving a single voicemail. They combed through archived systems, aging servers and backup files, comparing the task to finding a needle in a haystack. Despite the odds, they refused to stop searching. Against all expectations, they found it. When Stan learned how many people had worked tirelessly to recover his recording, he was overwhelmed. "All those people… just to help me? I never imagined a company would go to such lengths," he said. Then came the moment he had almost given up hope of experiencing again. Ruby's familiar voice filled the room: "Stan and Ruby are not available right now. Please leave your name and number, and we'll get back to you." Tears quickly welled up in his eyes. "Amazing… absolutely amazing," he whispered. With deep gratitude, he later said: "I thought I would never hear her voice again. They gave me back something I believed was gone forever. They made an old man incredibly happy." Sometimes the greatest treasures aren't money or possessions. They're the few precious seconds of a loved one's voice memories that can comfort a heart for a lifetime.
