@virginmedia Unfortunately not. The issue is she doesn’t receive any communication from Virgin apart from a monthly text with the link to her account. As she has no password etc she can’t access it

@virginmedia Thanks for your reset help earlier it worked, unlike waiting 10 hrs for someone to finally respond to me again via WhatsApp. I was told that there were no offers for current customers yet your website states otherwise!

@virginmedia my Mam has been trying to sort her mobile out today. As she can’t remember her password or security answer, she has been unable to access her account to cancel it. Can you let me know what she can do?

@virginmedia If there is any tools that you can suggest I use to solve my issue it will be greatly appreciated, I don’t mean to mean in your position but I just would like to know exactly what you can do SHAW at the end of the day I’m assuming you’re going to tell me to go to technical help

@virginmedia twice in 2 months that my hub 5 has completely gone down with a flashing red light and won’t work, I’ve had to book a technician for it both times. Costs too much for this to keep happening!

@virginmedia Absolutely no confirmation only my desperate call to them. I wouldn’t normally moan but it isn’t great customer service is it, and I genuinely need it to work things like my heating in my house

@virginmedia It told me to book an engineer, which I have, but sadly they can’t come out until Thursday. I wondered if there’s a fault in the area that hasn’t been flagged on your system yet? As I say, your website says there’s a TV issue in our postcode HG5 0BB

@virginmedia @channingtatum @magicmikemovie Any chance you can fix the intermitten issues you've been having for nearly 2 weeks. You're charging more for a poorer quality service. Sort it out. Everytime I ring or do a status check I get zero response.
