    Got this in email from @virginmedia / O2, "Each year your Airtime Plan will be increased by the Retail Price Index (RPI) rate of inflation announced in February plus 3.9%. If RPI is negative, we’ll only apply the 3.9%." No problem with RPI increase, whats the 3.9% for? #robbery

  • H0raceWimp Iain Montgomery (@H0raceWimp) reported from Dennistoun, Scotland

    @virginmedia What am I supposed to do when your systems fail and there is no-one to contact for a fix?

  • spongebath63 Willem_Wikkelspies (@spongebath63) reported from Dennistoun, Scotland

    @virginmedia What is going on with your customer care(?) line? I call 789, I get an automated voice telling me that calls are not being connected to this number and I'm told to call 789 to speak to a member of the team, so i call 789, I get an automated voice.........!

  • spongebath63 Willem_Wikkelspies (@spongebath63) reported from Dennistoun, Scotland

    @virginmedia I'm trying to contact the customer care number but I'm told thar calls are not being connected to that number (789) I'm then told to call 789 to speak to a team member...

  • donmackeen don mackeen (@donmackeen) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia That's useless. The service comes and goes, so you won't compensate me. And if have to deal with a "service" that continually cuts out

  • donmackeen don mackeen (@donmackeen) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia had the technician come out today after days of patchy service. Got the hub changed, and ... Service still terrible. And now I'm to wait "24 hours"...

  • DuddyFiona Fiona duddy (@DuddyFiona) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia is there any issues in pa14 with TV connection

  • scoobs1969 Lesley MacGregor (@scoobs1969) reported from Kilbirnie, Scotland

    @virginmedia We have no internet either, and now having to use data on my phone, what is the issue for this area KA25 7HG ?

  • WeeLemLug princealbertofmonaco (@WeeLemLug) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia An absolute joke of call , Your advisor just told me to cancel my full contract !! He was laughing and joking with people whilst on the call to me , Can someone please call me ?

  • donmackeen don mackeen (@donmackeen) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia The service checker tells me either nothing, or - as in the screenshot - something completely contradictory. There is no way to communicate with anyone and yet, strangely enough, you still charge me for a service which only works intermittently.

  • donmackeen don mackeen (@donmackeen) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Service still screwed up, any ideas when this will be fixed @virginmedia?

  • weeshug72 Hugh Moan 💙 (@weeshug72) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia The solution is leaving so I don't have to use more electricity.

  • AlexxAdair Alexander Adair 🌙 (@AlexxAdair) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Literally calling to cancel my package and I can’t get through

  • ChristianBunga7 bristian cungay (@ChristianBunga7) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia The ‘step by step help’ doesn’t help. It tells me thing I already know - restart hub check connections, reset.

  • ChristianBunga7 bristian cungay (@ChristianBunga7) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia As I said earlier, I’ve had no internet for the past month and continue to be charged. I can’t use most of your support services as I’ve never been sent any of my customer information @virginmedia

  • ChristianBunga7 bristian cungay (@ChristianBunga7) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia The checks tell me there are issues. regardless I don’t really care about wider issues in my area. I’ve been sent in a loop for the past month and it’s still broken, I’ve been paying for this time and not receiving a service - this is not the first time either @Ofcom

    @virginmedia sort out your links on the new My Virgin Media and My 02, the verification email takes ages to come through and the passkey link doesn't work, an hour of my time wasted trying to verify my account.
