    Effie Fenton (@effiefenton) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia With respect, that just takes you to a forum on your own website to tuck this away out of public view. I'll let you know here if I get any response. Emergency response phone lines should be treated as a priority by all telecoms companies.

    @virginmedia how much longer is the TV service going to be down? Currently at 6 hours

  • NeilBriogaisean

    @virginmedia tv just down again. Broadband also down at the same time. Network availability code C133 showing. Can I rely on you to provide a consistent and reliable signal?

  • Alli3Fifer
    Alli (@Alli3Fifer) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

    @virginmedia Quite simply No. They are in mid 70s and tbh we just need the issue fixed. Mum is awaiting a call from the hospital & is concerned and stressed they won’t be able to get her as she hasn’t had use of the number she is has had since 1989 for over a week!! My Dad is just stressed

  • ladyracer70
    diandrick (@ladyracer70) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thanks for asking. An operator will call me back tomorrow, as it’s part of an ongoing three week saga. I’m so disappointed as I’ve been a loyal VM (originally Telewest) customer for around 30 years. Remaining hopeful 🙃

    @virginmedia Thank you, but, hey...they didn't fool me...just thought you should know and maybe warn others. I've had 'it' before but fortunately never been 'taken in'.

    @virginmedia Issues when you phone VM you are constantly transferred to different people cold transfer then if they put u on hold cut off .why is there no email or decent human web chat poor customer service I am still waiting to get complaints resolved

  • gajarlove
    Evelyn Love-Gajardo (@gajarlove) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia It's not showing up and it's now been down since first thing yesterday. They are elderly and need their landline to be working. Is there a way to speak to someone if it's not fixed by 4?

  • SobukweScozia
    James Smith 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇹🇿🇦 (@SobukweScozia) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia BTW. It’s not an ‘intermittent’ issue - I’ve had no service at all for 18 hours, and what exactly does ‘taking us a little longer than usual’ to fix actually mean?

  • vcash78
    victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Very interesting as I was told £216.11 for each service (TV, BB, Phone). I asked is this a total of over £600 and she said, “yea mamm,that is correct”. My response was purely to laugh. This conversation has happed in the last 15 minutes. Absolutely despicable!

  • trippfuller
    trippfuller (@trippfuller) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia It's a bit offensive to send someone u cost significant income a link so they can get a fee bucks. If u just communicate sucking in advance those who count on service can arrange.

  • galleonskip
    Roddy Elliott (@galleonskip) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Got a message after power outage in Edinburgh yesterday that Virgin Services had been restored - internet is okay but ‘phone line off. Is this a known issue, EH16

  • vcash78
    victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    I was left without service for a week with multiple lies, promises of calls that didn’t happen and appalling customer service … you promise compensation of a month for free, the next you state £650 for disconnection. We are in a coat of living crisis you idiots! @virginmedia

  • SobukweScozia
    James Smith 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇹🇿🇦 (@SobukweScozia) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I’ve no internet, phone or tv in South Edinburgh - following intermittent internet for days. Your fault checker says there is no service fault yet your website does not allow me to book an engineer. Can you help?

  • PatMcCarthy37
    Patrick McCarthy (@PatMcCarthy37) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I managed to find a phone number to call you. The message 'don't contact us unless you need to' isn't great is it! Follow up text asks me to rate VM on the basis of my interaction. Not fair is it. Not the help desk fault if everything else is so bad.

  • SobukweScozia
    James Smith 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇹🇿🇦 (@SobukweScozia) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia If I phone there is a message saying there is a complex fault. The online fault tracker says there isn’t. Hard really to understand what the problem is and when and how it will be fixed. Still no service at all. Not impressed.

  • Alli3Fifer
    Alli (@Alli3Fifer) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

    @virginmedia It will be interesting to know what ofcoms view is of virgin continuing to sell a service that has been known not to be working since at least Oct. Is it not an option to go back to a standard phone line rather than VOIP for vulnerable customers??

  • DarrenObbard
    Darren Obbard is on mastodon (@DarrenObbard) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yes. Yesterday. Which is why our phone doesn't work. No adapter, despite being assured it would be sent.

    @virginmedia Currently dealing with someone eventually and having major problems…very angry customer..!

  • thebarfly
    The Bar Fly (@thebarfly) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia It claims intermittent issues. Mine has been totally dead for the past two days. I appreciate there is nothing you can do. It means when that is fixed and I still have my issue, I’ll have to start again to report then patiently wait till they can be bothered sending someone.

    @virginmedia Why do you want a private message. For what. Just get it sorted. Location is EN3. Private message only hides the info from other users that may be complaining about your shoddy service. I pay enough for this ‘service’ get it fixed.

    @virginmedia @rayquannnnnnn Is there a problem in the wallsend area with broadband?

  • eamonnhunt
    Eamonn Hunt (@eamonnhunt) reported

    @virginmedia you need to up your game guys. Two weeks of intermittent connectivity and the best you can do is tell me that I need someone to come to my home but Ill have to pay a £25 fee if I miss the booking slot. How about I charge you £25 per day for lack of service?

  • bull_robin56713
    🇬🇧 Rob @No-Bull-Politics 🇬🇧 (@bull_robin56713) reported

    @virginmedia I'm sure I'm not alone in having asked you to reduce my service, such as cancelling a second set-top box, in order to reduce my bills. As you can see here I asked for my bills to be reduced in Jan 2024. Yet notice how those bills have crept up again ever since. There has been no increase or improvement in the service you provide to justify this. According to my analysis, despite having gained a better paid job recently, my net income is down 4.2% compared with 5 years ago. Like many, I am going to have to tighten my belt, and those bills that increase without any prior warning must be the first to go.

    THREAD 9 — COMMUNITY CALLING AND THE MONEY BEHIND THE DEVICES The Community Calling programme gives us another important part of the story. Virgin Media O2 and Hubbub have worked together to collect and redistribute unwanted smartphones. Migrant Help has been one of the organisations receiving devices for asylum seekers and refugees. Then there is the Tech Lending Community Fund. The first phase was worth £400,000 and supported charity partners to establish tablet-lending hubs. The projects included organisations such as Thames Reach, the Kurdish and Middle Eastern Women’s Organisation, Willowacre Trust, Refuge and Leeds Refugee Forum, with tablets and O2 data being made available through the programme. In Swansea, around 700 donated phones were distributed through a Community Calling project, with O2 providing 12 months of free data, calls and texts. Swansea Asylum Seekers Support made 127 referrals to the scheme in 2021. Its records also show £8,175 spent on phone top-ups, covering 1,160 £10 top-ups. There was another £2,400 provided by Hay Brecon Talgarth Sanctuary for Refugees. The funding came through organisations including the Moondance Foundation, Comic Relief/SCVS Emergency Fund and Welsh Government/SCVS Integration Care Fund. This is where the investigation starts moving beyond technology companies. There is philanthropic money. There is council money. There is Government money. There is corporate money. And there are charities distributing the resulting technology.
