    @virginmedia The ideal resolution would have been for VM to return the document as originally promised. We have dealt with other companies in this regard and all have been prompt and professional. Even the DWP accepted a photocopy of the POA. Why VM couldn't is entirely beyond me.

    @virginmedia @WaynesWorld20_ How many areas have this 'intermittent' loss of service? O have it in DY6 too.

    @virginmedia Hi John, my wifi has gone down 4 times since last night, we’ve reset it on the box twice this morning alone and it still keeps dropping … can’t get through to anyone on the phone and website says they won’t send anyone out for another 24 hours and only if the wifi stays down ???

    @virginmedia I called cust serv today after logging complaint on 26th Nov and hearing nothing back. cust serv asked me to request my data and voice calls. listen to it myself and then send proof of being missold a contract/virgin error, so virgin can then resolve the matter and complaint

    @matt_hanson70 @virginmedia Intermittent for 2.5 days, Sunday always v poor the worst is 0.4mbs with a 250mbs supply. VM's script always saying reboot etc.. Funny though following reporting an issue a week ago I suddenly recorded 256mbs for an hour then it slowly drops to normal! First ever hitting supply.

    @virginmedia Dear ‘RP,’ I find your tone unacceptable. I don’t care how many times you’ve had to repeat the statement; customers are paying for a service they’ve not been getting, so dial down your level of obnoxiousness please.

    @virginmedia footy on BBC1 through virgin box about 5 minutes behind tonight. Not good service

  • HJMKent
    Howard Martin 🇺🇦 (@HJMKent) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia I'd like to know why you discontinued my Netflix subscription? The service just stopped but I didn't cancel it? It was paid for in June but there is no charge due to be made in July! It was connected up to Sunday but today I just got a message asking me to rejoin?

    Well done @virginmedia screwed up again.. even on an online chat when it is written down infront of you you end up removing elements of my package I have specifically asked you to keep on 😡 it would be nice to have one good experience with you. How do I log a complaint?

  • tr0y1291
    Troy (@tr0y1291) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia are an absolute disgrace. The broadband has been down more than in use over the last 12 months. My 1 year old would do a better job in the call centre they use.

  • timhazelwood2

    @virginmedia my dad is a pensioner who has had no TV service for more than a month. We have called numerous times and not had resolution. Can someone please contact me to help sort this out

  • ________Danny
    Satish Danny Paul (@________Danny) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia I received my new 500+mps broadband only to get 6mps on my phone in my room. The Router is Terrible and cannot send the speed to devices via wifi. Not Good for anyone

  • benavfcfranklin

    @virginmedia Yes this was after I reset. I have been trying a hub reset regularly and it doesn’t help. How do I check the package I am on? Im not sure.

    @virginmedia the most unreliable service going! Sky should be rubbing their hands together knowing that this shower of **** is their main competition.

    Kev Maslin (@kevmaslin) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia your treatment of us over a Lasting Power of Attorney issue has been appalling. Your people have actually SHREDDED a document costing hundreds of pounds despite us being told it had been returned. CISAS has been invoked and your CEO will be told . @MoneyTelegraph

  • SurfWorks
    Chris Parkes (@SurfWorks) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia I am trying to renew my media contract. I have been a Virgin customer since 2009. Any chance of getting someone to call me to sort this out?

  • nickywolko
    Nicky Rowe (@nickywolko) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I'm trying to link my parents virgin media o2 account with a virgin media account, but when I do this, it's asking us to sign in with an email address we do not have access to. I've tried calling your customer services and they can't understand me.

    @virginmedia @RobRollin2 If you have the 1gb they are free plus most WiFi issues are due to devices & not the service. Plus you can if want put in modem mode & use your own equipment

  • gail_hendry
    gail hendry (@gail_hendry) reported

    @virginmedia 17th may. I received a response today but it has not answered my questions or resolved the issue. Thank you

  • Benleo
    Ben Leo (@Benleo) reported

    What this comes down to is Virgin Media not wanting consumers to be able to skip adverts anymore using pause and rewind live TV. I assume they get more from advertising money when people are forced to watch adverts on their streaming boxes. Fine, I understand that. But lying and misselling and treating customers like this in order to achieve that is unacceptable.

  • MAGGINED
    Maggie N (@MAGGINED) reported

    @virginmedia Hey @virginmedia I have been unable to use my tv play back services and play any recorded programmes for almost a week. The service check is telling me estimated fix date as 18th May - that’s 2 days ago !! What’s going on ?

    (((Tim from Radio Clash))) 🌈 🏳️‍🌈💛🤍💜🖤 (@radioclashblog) reported

    Sadly we are still last mile copper here, no Community/Open Reach fibre yet but we do have Virgin Media (old cable)... Yes I know...but I suspect support will be as **** like nearly all of them now....if Plusnet wasn't dropping phones and Zen wasn't hyper expensive I'd use them.

    @virginmedia Ive had 5 complaints in with you, 3 have only ever been looked at and all i get is , " we'll make sure things are done differently " yet never are. So no thanks ive had more than enough of your excuses I'll do what Ben is doing and go to the ombudsman. You really are terrible

    @virginmedia S29 EA2010does not allow you to dictate the terms you provide a service! #disabledhatecrime all this has been provided seems a robot is responding not a human!

    @Benleo @virginmedia One other issue they never mention, is if you leave any email addresses die after 3 months. For some people not an issue, however I’ve used theirs for 10 years all my contacts use it, even banks, shops etc.
