  • TimEvans1503 Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia To be honest this happens too often then often our speeds are not what we pay for. I work from home so costs me business when this happens. Rather then getting me to check things, I just need yo-yo to provide us with a regular consistent service at the speeds we actually pay for

  • poole_ste Steve Re-cycle (@poole_ste) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Good afternoon #Virginmedia my problems still go on I have had an engineer visit problem not a fault but from when I first started with you. Contacted customer service who promised a manager would contact me. Nothing since except one scam call. #nothappy

  • TimEvans1503 Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia is there a reason why when I’m working from home with so much to that involves internet access including online meetings that yet again your service is not working in B36? This is happening so often it is ridiculous

  • NinaWildeUK Nina Wilde (@NinaWildeUK) reported

    @virginmedia The calls cost too much You often hang up Why should we bother? Why not just hand it to watchdog and let them do their thing? Shows how little you care

  • friendy85 Shaun Friend (@friendy85) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, no he didn't because I left the chat I wasn't going to sit there waiting after that, I lost all confidence in his ability to actually solve the issue and didn't want to waste yet more time

  • hairbyangi Angi-UTV-VTID-SOTC-English Patriot (@hairbyangi) reported

    @virginmedia no its not an error, it just un pauses and i cant re pause. its nothing to do with re starting the box as i have restarted it many times due to other issues

  • hairbyangi Angi-UTV-VTID-SOTC-English Patriot (@hairbyangi) reported

    @virginmedia please can someone help with an issue with pausing TV. This should be a simple solution but having huge difficlty. I can only pause a programme for about 3 minutes then it re starts and i cannot pause it again. what am i doing wrong?

  • RicciAshoori Ricci Ashoori (@RicciAshoori) reported

    @virginmedia hi guys, I’ve tried online, calling and the live chat but no one seems to want to help so hoping you can! Outside my property on public footpath is manhole damage on the box. It’s missing it’s lid and full of mud and weeds. It’s a trip hazard for people walking past

  • MasonPOGO Mason (@MasonPOGO) reported

    @virginmedia constant packet loss for 2 months... this service is unacceptable

  • NinaWildeUK Nina Wilde (@NinaWildeUK) reported

    @virginmedia I see you are fast to send a generic answer but then happy to ignore a real issue This will be logged for watchdog too

  • TomHill20162277 Tom Hill (@TomHill20162277) reported

    @virginmedia are there any plans to upgrade the upload speeds for VM's fibre network?

  • NinaWildeUK Nina Wilde (@NinaWildeUK) reported

    @virginmedia Can't we have no land line And your other number costs us far too much Maybe you set up calling us and actually fixing the issue instead of ignoring it for months? Took months for you to even admit there was one We are contacting watchdog about this as well
