    @jack108986 @virginmedia Seems lots of people are having the same problem. I’d go on channel 100 and hope by the time McGregor is on they’d fixed the issue.

    @virginmedia Nice to see that you "Customer Services" are maintaining their historic levels of poor service. My contract comes to an end on the 19th of this month, I am wondering why I want stay with you. .... You were near bottom Uswitches recommended list

    @virginmedia Still here waiting for the restoration of the internet service I pay you to provide.

    @virginmedia So what your saying is your doing the minimum required by the regulator, and failing your vulnerable customers. As previously stated VM will be mentioned in courts when people are pressing their emergency assist numbers and get a VM message saying their call can’t be connected!

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. I've only got one account with you and have used the same email - I have been receiving emails about my bills & offers etc but can't sign in online.

    @virginmedia hello, I'm having an issue signing into my online account, I've tried resetting my password and have entered the correct information multiple times, it says that the site doesn't recognise my account/password. Can you please advise?

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get in touch with no luck message the engineer numbers and your own message service with nothing back from either one all I want is my internet installing

  • tobystephenson
    Toby Stephenson (@tobystephenson) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @mrwilliamstokes He couldn’t be clearer that he’s asking for a repayable loan not free money. The media really have their heart set on pulling Virgin apart. People are terrible too, we make our own beds that we have to sleep in - E.g. flying Ryanair now because we put nicer airlines out of biz.

    @virginmedia I've had it with your Internet. WiFi is atrocious. Disconnected and stored away. Getting sky tomorrow. Can't cancel virgin as in contract. Even had a new router...

    Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia @dev101 Your on-call Network support, who had to wait 18 hours to be sent the ticket, and then he had to endure 4 hours on the phone to India. 2 other households in area also affected. Offer of compensation £0 (issue occurred 15:30 17/9, finally rectified 18:30 19/9).

    @virginmedia on the phone now for 3rd time as get cut off, no internet and NO HELP, it’s been over 24hrs now, I need the internet

  • EmcdNotts
    Erin McDaid (@EmcdNotts) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Thanks - will do if it persists but it would be so much easier to have live help or an email link rather than focusing on pushing the 'community' to help ourselves.

    @virginmedia Fastest broadband provider my arse. Tour broadband is ****. I pay for 100mbps and barley get a tenth of that. So stop your lying

    @virginmedia It wasn’t - I just want to add sky sports to my package, but I can’t online and the automated telephone service doesn’t work

    @virginmedia The delayed call back does not change corp. #customerservice practice or reduce long lead times plaguing @Bell - ANSWERING customer calls when called is needed. - Stopping the use of unproven AI. - Address consistent #customersupport deficiencies reported online.

    @virginmedia we got a new upgraded hub. The only WIFI name is showing for new devices which have never connected to the WiFi before and when using new password it says it’s wrong and unable to connect? No extenders from old device or anything. Help please!

  • Laitty
    Graeson Laitt (@Laitty) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately this workaround isn’t suitable. My father is nearly 80 and would not even know what an app is, let alone be able to download one, sign in, enable location services or use a web player.
