-
David Bartholo (@DavidBa97629651) reported@virginmedia There’s no point in me DM because you won’t change it just for me however I hope you take notice of the number of customers raising this as an issue, I would ask you to consider elderly folks like myself with joint and mobility issues who don’t wish to keep pressing the remote
-
Kevin (@1kevin010) reported@virginmedia My broadband is down, bn15 area, service status problem in my area, can you confirm please
-
VLP FinalTilt / Luke Squires (@TheFinalTilt) reportedSeriously **** @virginmedia
-
Iain Sankey (@IainSankey) reported@NommeDeTwit @virginmedia They seem to favour new customers, so I expect I'll have to change again in 2 years or threaten to. It's really stupid that companies no longer reward loyalty.
-
Iain Sankey (@IainSankey) reported@TWO_Librans @virginmedia Yes, I am aware of the cancellation period, but it's a cheek, really. The problem with my landline was that I got constant nuisance calls on it all day long. I'd kept it for a few elderly relatives' sake, but they've all departed now, so I've disconnected it.
-
Adam 🇮🇪🇪🇺 (@AdamED98) reportedSomeone slap me across the face & ask me why I chose Virgin Media when setting up my broadband? Modem randomly offline for two days now, no explanation & someone won’t be out until Tuesday to fix it? That’s 5 days of no WiFi & TV. That’s 5 days they’re not getting on my next bill
-
Johnny A (@Ruislip33) reported@christofflennon If you download sky sports app and then select watch, then login with Virgin Media option at bottom of the page it works that way
-
Kathleen Peters (@kathleenp442) reportedNo sky sports+ working so missing the first match of the season. I see someone reported this 6 days ago. Will there be a reduction in charges on the next bill for the loss of this service....I doubt it. I await your response. @virginmedia
-
Paul THORNE (@harrewis) reported@virginmedia Unacceptable…should be offering compensation to customers for failing to provide the service being paid for.
-
Richard (@visitandtravel) reported@IainSankey @virginmedia These large companies Sky etc are so used to making huge amounts from the TV/broadband services - they are living on the assumption that most people will not switch. It is greed on their part, or they just do not give a damn.
