@virginmedia I have had a letter to say my sons email address is sending spam emails. I have changed my password just in case but am having an issue with certain emails being undelivered. Have you put a spam indicator on my emails. This is causing me big problems

@virginmedia the state of your customer service is appalling. Your sales team pick up within 2 seconds but can’t get hold of ANYONE in troubleshoot for 2 days #Disappointednotangry #richardwhatyoudoing

@virginmedia I have done everything you have asked me to do regarding my security issue. I have responded to your texts as requested. But you never respond as you say you will. Meanwhile, more letters and texts arrive. It is futile.

@Spudsghost @EE The @virginmedia crapness is to do with their router I think it’s useless and can’t send the WiFi through paper thin plasterboard or handle the TV signal

@virginmedia we would like to cancel our contract with you but your website is sending us round in circles and it’s impossible to get through to your call centre. You’re taking advantage of the lockdown to rip people off!! 🤬

So we pay over £100 a month for full @virginmedia package and fastest Internet going, but is it so so bad. It keeps cutting out all the time or going slow.

Terrible service from #virginmedia for 3 months+. Spent hours on the phone for the goalposts to be moved again. Apparently if you are residential customer intermittent service in a 24 hour period is acceptable, even if that is 10 minutes Bye bye 🖐🏻🖐🏻#bonvoyage

@virginmedia @WeAreOpenreach @cardiffcouncil @LornaLwyl @Keep_Wales_Tidy I believe this particular one is openreach, just highlighting this is an issue with both companies. One volunteer has previously written to virgin media posting spent wiring with the letters, but this issue it seems is not being addressed adequately across the whole of the UK

@virginmedia Hi. I have complained several times over 3 months. Phone/official complaint/chat.Someone here called Gareth told me to email him.He suddenly stopped replying & my TV is still not cancelled & you are still charging me. I am sick & registered disabled & asked repeatedly for help.

Not sure why @virginmedia haven’t updated their Twitter to acknowledge there is an issue with their internet/phone service. They seem to be giving everyone who messages them the run around and I’m reading the same complaints of being cut off by customer services all over twitter

@uk_domain_names Possibly, tho' all broadband providers apart from Virgin Media use the Openreach local network, and this is the bit that is most likely to fail (cables particularly). Reckon on an outage of around 24 hours per year on average (but could be days). So mobile backup could be better.
