    @virginmedia No it wasn't. I want to do it when it's convenient for me not virgin media. Thanks for nothing..As well as expecting the customer to do all the work installing the equipment you making the decisions without consultation.Seriously thinking about my 14 day change of mind now.

  • TerryFBH

    @virginmedia I look forward to receiving your offer regarding the complaints that I already made and have still not received a response. I suppose you could consider this a further complaint that your complaints process is inadequate.

    @virginmedia I’ve got 16 months left on my current contract but I’d like to cancel it as I have good reason

    @gracedavies I had a dream that I Met a Boy Online was used by Virgin Media in a TV advert, and you got paid a ****-ton of money. Does that count?

  • rachsclarke
    rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Thanks, do you have an ETA of when you’re issue will be resolved? Many of us could of purchased this game with a different streaming service if we knew you would be having the same issues with red button as per usual

  • gaznolan
    Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia fully and reasonably, the agent response was "oh okay" and put the phone down. How do I make a formal complaint about the atrocious service you guys offer? (2/2)

  • simonmp68
    SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    Looks like #virginmedia is down again in New Marske. If it’s preventative maintenance they should tell us.

    Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @beardedian @VirginMediaCorp Then again I wouldn't expect anything less from Virgin Media. The only thing that is stopping me leaving them is losing my emails. Going to look into an alternative solution to that problem tomorrow

    David Lumb Writer (@LumbWriter) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet down? I've checked and you're aware of this issue. I would like it sorted out

    @virginmedia Hi. Weve just moved house and are trying to install a new router but house connections look out of date. What is the best contact for someone to help with this as may need someone to come out?

  • AndreaAndymac

    @virginmedia as per usual the red button not working AGAIN the amount I pay you each month should provide me with a much much better service than this. What are you doing??????

    My 83 year old dad is a bit senile. He signed up to @virginmedia without knowing what it was. We were aghast at the £160 monthly subscription he’ll mostly never use. We cancelled it and moved to a £30 EE one. Virgin have now sent him a termination bill for £1,500 @MoneySavingExp

    Is anyone else having problems with Sky channels through Virgin Media today? We’ve got a message saying there’s a problem with the service, but it’s not very clear what the issue is. Just wondering if it’s affecting other Virgin Media customers as well? 📺 @virginmedia #Sky

  • Cruffers

    @SkySports @virginmedia you are officially crap. Opening EFL weekend and no-one can access Sky Sports Plus. Very poor.

    @EE @VirginMedia Long seen some play legal moves via The Walking Dead, years ago, which some of my funds also paid for much zombie production. Trouble is when it's a success the rats come sniffing via Disney, and TWD in France, so don't want my get my U.S compound interest slice.

    @SkyFootball @SkySports @virginmedia no apology for the technicsl issues with red button matches today? How many seasons have subscribers had to put up these issues. Not good enough.

  • finn33
    Caroline (@finn33) reported

    @virginmedia home WiFi down again. No update on engineer time. Just that they’re fixing the problem. How can we get this sorted. Seems a bit of heat and your WiFi goes down. What exactly am I paying for?!
