    @virginmedia can you explain to me why I still can't access fifa20 ultimate team . This is still a ongoing problem since Friday

    rachel clarke (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @EE Would be more than happy to rejoin EE even without my NHS discount if someone would actually call me back. Don’t think I can take another week of important missed calls from @virginmedia - yes I know they use the EE network but not the enhanced 4G+ side 🙄

  • Cannygang4

    @AF3WT @BBC Would love @virginmedia to be able to contact @virginmedia to cancel my sports/footy channels on @virginmedia which is now not available on @virginmedia. I have tried 3 times today @virginmedia

    Here’s a thought. Those poor folk stick in hospital at the moment. No visitors allowed but still been charged #Extortionate amounts for #TVServices How about these companies waiving fees as a goodwill gesture during extremely difficult times #NHS #VirginMedia ##SkyTv

    @virginmedia are you going to fix this issue surrounding the routers blocking access to Fifa / EA sports

  • KateBaucherel
    Kate Baucherel (@KateBaucherel) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia It’s been going off intermittently for weeks. I’ve been blaming the devices in the house and changing every cable. You even sent me a new router. Every drop in service resets adapters and loses video calls.

    The country is on lockdown and Virgin Media has been going down all day. Would hate to work for customer service right now.

  • RDChoirgirl
    Becky Dutneall (@RDChoirgirl) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve lost sky sports, though it says I’m still subscribed. Another issue is my tv isn’t working very well. I spoke to your customer services and they said that even if it isn’t an issue with your equipment the engineer would take a look at a rate of £50 - seems reasonable

  • MichelleP_52
    Michelle Pearce (@MichelleP_52) reported

    @virginmedia attempting to cancel in the 14 day cooling off period, been passed around 3 operators and now the line has gone silent.....please can someone contact me.......really glad to be leaving if this is the level of service I can expect

  • NJM71
    Nic Millar (@NJM71) reported

    @virginmedia No, I'm still waiting. I'm back to the beginning (yet again) answering the bot - which I CBA with today. Not your fault but the text/WhatsApp messaging service needs to be massively improved. I can't see how it's useful. 🙃

    @Naomiworldz @virginmedia I can help recover your hacked account

  • arikat73
    Ahmed Arikat (@arikat73) reported

    @virginmedia Yes it is. Its almost been a month now. The support is absolutely appalling. I have been tweeting this for several days now. All get from Virgin Media is that it is being investigated. This needs to get resolved and someone from your team needs to let me know that it is working.

  • DonnaBrannan12
    Donna Brannan (@DonnaBrannan12) reported

    @virginmedia You can help by getting your lazy customer relations team to actually fulfill their promises and ring me back, they've only said they'll do it 15 or so times and that is no exaggeration
