  Jeff Salmon (@JeffSalmon) reported 7 minutes ago from Camden Town, England

  Cont… @virginhelp @virginmedia What can be so difficult that a COMPETENT team of engineers can’t fix in these days. The fact is we believe that virgin are a team of incompetents and the time has come for us all to leave Virgin. You are a disgrace.

  Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported 13 minutes ago from Hackney, England

  @virginmedia I would not have used these terms as I didn’t know them however I presumed that all the necessary work would be done in the background. Why would I keep the landline with Virgin when I was VERY UNHAPPY with the service provided

• 
  Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported 13 minutes ago from Islington, England

  @virginmedia how do I connect to London Underground WiFi now you have turned off your own hotspots? Hopefully you are not just depriving all Virgin Media customers of the service! Especially as you are putting all your prices up!

  @virginmedia Do you, or could you make a TV box remote for the elderly? Tiny buttons with tinier symbols instead of words, black buttons on black body.... Almost impossible for some older people to use. An OAP version with larger coloured buttons would be such a help!

  Emma Churcher-Holt (@emmalouchu) reported 16 minutes ago from Camden Town, England

  @virginmedia Even this link isn't working. Takes me straight to auto bot/live chat messaging service and there is no one actually responding.

  Zahida (@zkhussain) reported 32 minutes ago from City of London, England

  @virginmedia can you please answer your phone as I want to cancel my contract. Or give me an alternative number to contact you on.

  Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported 34 minutes ago from Islington, England

  @virginmedia I’ve already terminated my service with you since you were unable to get it installed in less than a month.

• 
  Juan Folgar Colomer (@jfcolomer) reported 34 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia what's the reason for the intermittent broadband service in the Charlton #SE7 area? Any ETA when this will be solved?

• 
  Melanie Hart (@MelanieHart72) reported 39 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia You have put my bill up from £84 to £96 in one month and you are not providing a service I should have my full services 24/7 for that price and getting any compensation it like getting blood out of a stone !!! Disgusting service

• 
  Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported 39 minutes ago from Hackney, England

  @virginmedia I cancelled my broadband subscription in October and Virgin have kept charging me for landline although other provider inform me that they are providing service I just want to close the Virgin account

• 
  Lusitano71 (@Lisboadolphin71) reported 41 minutes ago from Camden Town, England

  @virginmedia no services for all 5 days now! Your customer care is appalling! And, apparently, nothing is wrong, according to your website. Bad!!

• 
  Marian Martin (@marianmartinart) reported 47 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia It says there aren't any known issues but we have been struggling with it for the last few years - the service is just getting worse!

• 
  SallyH (@sallyhhk) reported 49 minutes ago from Islington, England

  @virginmedia 3 hours of online chat and I’m still haven’t managed to cancel my subscription. Why is it so difficult??

• 
  Christine Allado (@ChristineAllado) reported 49 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia Looks like there are issues that need to be resolved hopefully by tomorrow.. Is this something that might be fixed sooner and am I able to seek compensation?

• 
  Geoff Neale (@g_neale) reported 50 minutes ago from Camden Town, England

  @premierinn no Free WiFi or Ultimate WiFi at Premier Inn Euston. Twitter has lots of other complaints of the same issue nationally… why I am asked to speak to Virgin Media, how hard can it be? Forget Network does not force the page to reload, what else can I do?

• 
  Shah 🦅 (@shah4569) reported 51 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia bring back customer service to the UK. Philippines is a joke!

• 
  Luther Blissett (@LutherB40510976) reported 52 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia can you give me a direct number to call to cancel my contract. I've used whataspp / webchat and spoken to two people in last 24 hours - but to no avail.

• 
  Helen Reihill (@BBLn15) reported 54 minutes ago from Hackney, England

  @virginmedia How long is due course? I’ve already spent hours on this issue with no resolution. I started this chat conversation on Wednesday 1st February. Wouldn’t you agree the customer service from Virgin is woeful?

• 
  Mark Armstrong (@markatpt) reported 55 minutes ago from London, England

  @virginmedia You didn’t reach out sadly and I’ve now cancelled the installation. Having spoken to someone clearly at home with her baby screaming in the background I have zero confidence that you are able to help us.

• 
  Terry Lee (@tezlee1) reported 14 minutes ago

  Help! there was a fault in my area, but Im told its resolved, my router is still flashing red so a full outage still exits. The call center in India had no idea what to do and kept referring to a different ongoing outage. No service but no recorded outage! Help!! @virginmedia

• 
  Roy Cadge (@RoyCadge) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Try no, I don't have time for your company anymore! Had a hour call and as the person did like me saying come back with a better offer they hung up on me! Not very good customer service team! Now removed me from all your systems! Do not hold my data anymore!

  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.
