@virginmedia Hi yes I’ve done this numerous times and spoken to many people on chat and always been told I will get a call to discuss and I never hear back. I just want someone to look into why we cannot get it but it’s available on our road. Thanks

@virginmedia I have to say @virginmedia are one of the worst companies to contact if you have an issue. Their message system is a joke and accounts a shambles. @skyuk is looking a better prospect!!!!

@virginmedia Not really. I have made arrangements to bring my account up to date and close it as I am a responsible person. However as a result of the U Switch service not working. I have paid you £150 extra for a service that I have not used. So from my point of view I am very frustrated

@virginmedia you used to be great, but now not so great. I lose my internet connection far more frequently now. There’s an error when I try and change my package online. I’ve phoned customer service now I have to call tomorrow as your systems are down for changing packages

@virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

What's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.

@virginmedia Last time I rang your numbers on another issue I ended up being charged as the call took longer than an hour, this update should be seamless, but it is not, how do I return this as I’m happy to remain as it was and have little faith in your new product

@virginmedia The forums are a no-no. I follow the link and then log in, it takes me to the Virgin Media home page. When I try to get to the forums from a logged in page it gives me HTTP status 400 - Bad request. Looks like you have more to fix than I thought.

(@objectwizard) reported
@virginmedia Yes, I was told on the phone to Virgin Media customer services that there are longstanding slow speeds due to an ongoing fault that started in February. Yet I was never actually informed about this. This is a breach of contract.

@robcfcmcgee @virginmedia @KerrangTV Nothing to do with Virgin. Ongoing issues from last Saturday mean their playout provider, Red Bee, are still trying to get their systems back up and running. As The Box is working, it is being used a back up service for its sister channels (as this also effects Magic and 4Music).

@virginmedia It is fixed now. No doubt it will be down again soon though. It seems to be down more than it is up. 🙈
