    @AsadMoghal @virginmedia That’s of course if you get a reply from a genuine account . Lots of scammer accounts reply to Vm complaint tweets - because there are so very many online complaints #virginmediadown

    @virginmedia @Big_Stylo Guys, your service page isn’t working. You need to listen to what your users are saying rather than just repeating the same response

    @virginmedia Hi, no service in W12. Router has been rebooted but still just flashing green. Been like this on/off for 24 hours.

    @virginmedia i have been loyal customer and i asked if i change my package to phone and broadband as its far more affordable for me seeing the prices. You refused offering me what is on offer i find at absolute ridiculous and unvalued therefore requested cancellation.

  • craiginmotion
    craig crawford (@craiginmotion) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia And how am I to do that with no service? It took 3 technicians to figure out my modem had to be “pin reset” and another to rename it properly. Thats 1 hr of my life gone. So glad @CommunityFibre has arrived near me.

  • iamAleFerrara
    Alessandro Ferrara (@iamAleFerrara) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Hello there, DAY 5 without Internet connection here and I haven’t received any update from you. Can you PLEASE make some clarity on what is going on and when we can expect this to be fixed? Surely you should have sent a technician to check on us by now… Absolutely awful.

  • FoodwiseWomen
    Foodwise Woman (@FoodwiseWomen) reported from Kensington, England

    I’m trying to live chat to @virginmedia to see if they can install a Hub 5 router in our area as Apple reporting privacy problems with existing router. I’m on hold for a ‘live’ agent but their Terri Triage BOT requires me to press the ‘Yes I’ll hold button’ every 40secs. 😱😱😱

  • Housewife6
    Shaz (@Housewife6) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia I have made a formal complaint and i already have the connect app, it does not help me!

    @alisterrussell @PeteUK7 @virginmedia Please name the company - service like that would encourage people to use them.

  • footymarketer
    Clive Edwards (@footymarketer) reported

    @virginmedia @PeteUK7 This is actually atrocious, both the initial mistake and this poorly worded, lacking in true sentiment, reply. Your system failures are not what this poor chap wants to hear about. Branson should be looking at his licensing agreement with the clearly inept organisations behind Virgin Media.

  • KeithClarke1
    Bern 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@KeithClarke1) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia I managed to negotiate a pretty good deal with Virgin. Not quite a new customer deal but pretty good.

  • Gazmac92
    Gary George (@Gazmac92) reported

    @Billymawa @PeteUK7 @virginmedia BT did this to my mam when my dad died and when they after the third time of her telling them he died they asked if he needed an ambulance. Don’t know why they thought her first reaction to him going into cardiac arrest was to cancel the internet not save his life.

  • JakeSmalley22
    Jake Smalley (@JakeSmalley22) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Hello. I had the exact same. Let the contract end. Give the box etc back. Then sign up as a new customer. Mines gone from 69 wanted 120 now as new customer it's 26.99. I had new box with 3 days pal

  • itstrisha_innit
    F’real (@itstrisha_innit) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Call them and threaten to leave. The Retention/Sales Team will cut you a deal. But don’t get sucked into taking the VM movie bundle - the movies they offer are crap.

  • mastersdog
    master P (@mastersdog) reported

    I had the same problem with @skybroadcasting and left to join @virginmedia early this year.

  • mikmikemicky
    Mike Hill (@mikmikemicky) reported

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia That's bad. When my dad died, a company who's bill didn't get paid even offered to be executor's in his estate?

  • ohisaymatron
    don’t stand still 🥸 (@ohisaymatron) reported

    @JamieGBarry @virginmedia Can never understand why they don’t proactively get customers to sign new contracts with decent rates. Always have to **** us around and piss us off.

  • PeteUK7
    Pete 😷 #COVIDisAirborne (@PeteUK7) reported

    @virginmedia I don't want private communication with you - I don't want you to try to appease me as an individual but actually go and look into your systems, see how this can happen and deal with bereavements professionally. Look at the feedback. People are enraged by this kind of thing and it's entirely solvable at your end. Get somebody senior at VM involved. If you fix the system - you ensure my mum doesn't get more emails from you. But when you say 'to ensure everything is correct' - it clearly isn't.
