    @virginmedia You say it's a business number that I spoke to for 23 mins! I checked online & it's not a real area code, but a premium rate number, often used for scams. Thing is, I NEVER ring these people, or press 1, or whatever, I always hang up! But lady said there's nothing u can do, so...

    @virginmedia The excuse is always to make further improvements in my area. I have only been with Virgin for around 12 months and this has happened a handful of times. It would be great if I had a consistent network connection. Had multiple engineer callouts to fix that issue to no success.

    @virginmedia To cancel. Tried ask contact methods other than writing you a letter so far. Carrier pigeon might be better.

    @virginmedia The TV that it glitches on cant reach the box to get it wired in (but its only 10 ft away) I can't hard wire my laptop in. It goes off all the time! And then keep texting me saying you are coming for the WiFi pod after speaking with customer service. Im paying a fortune for this

    @yatin_suvagiya @virginmedia Sky are rubbish 3 weeks I have been calling them to sort out an issue and now the managers that are promising to call me don’t call me back shocking service from @SkyUK can’t wait to leave and virgin have offered me a cheaper deal with more add ons that sky can give me

    @virginmedia Two whole days now with our Internet connection dropping every ten minutes. How long is this fix expected to take?

  • gazbullsfan22
    Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia We aren’t getting anywhere and you cut us off. This has to be worst service, if I performed as your advisor I would be sacked! How do we get to resolve the issue via the above method?

  • westerby1
    Norma (Stuckasaurus) Roberts (@westerby1) reported from Thornton, England

    @virginmedia Hi, John, is it possible to find out if anyone rang me just before that call was made? I'm wondering if I've responded to something I shouldn't have? I'm normally very careful about unsolicited calls and, usually, hang up, but I'm only human & we all make mistakes! It was April.

  • cathgray23
    Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia joined for broadband, being charged for Tv package which we don’t have and a phone line which doesn’t work!!! Mobile no. given to us to discuss account won’t pick up or reply to messages or emails!!! Disgusting service!

  • ashleyhirst15
    Ashley Hirst (@ashleyhirst15) reported from Bradford, England

    @skytv are proper jokers account due for renewal and only offered to knock it down by £7 per Month... That's the £7 increase they put on... Virgin media can get same package for £30 cheaper!

  • westerby1
    Norma (Stuckasaurus) Roberts🐀 (@westerby1) reported from Thornton, England

    @virginmedia If that was the case then I apologise for moaning! Seems it was just bad timing! Had I rung a little later you'd have known! I just always assumed that the tests that you run would show if there was a fault at your end?

    My Virgin Media WiFi has still not been working since yesterday, and there has been no improvement this morning. I have already called customer service, but the issue was not resolved. I also sent a DM on X and have not received a response. @virginmedia

  • WolfofX
    Wolf of X (@WolfofX) reported

    For more than a decade, Stan Beaton held onto something that many people would consider priceless. It wasn't jewelry, money, or a photograph. It was the voice of his wife, Ruby. Ruby passed away from cancer in 2003. Before she died, she had recorded the greeting on their home answering machine. It became the last recording of her voice, and whenever grief felt overwhelming, Stan would play it just to hear her speak again. He was so afraid of losing that message that he stayed with the same phone company for years, believing it was the safest way to protect it. Then, in 2014, everything changed. Following routine maintenance by Virgin Media, the voicemail suddenly disappeared. Stan was devastated. He believed the final piece of his wife's voice had been erased forever. When Virgin Media learned what had happened, they refused to give up. The company assembled a team of 11 engineers, who spent three days searching through backup systems and archived data. One executive compared the task to searching for a needle in a haystack. Against the odds, they found it. When the recording was played back to Stan during a BBC Radio Leeds interview, he broke down in tears. "That's her... It's just a wonderful, wonderful sound that I thought was lost forever." Virgin Media later provided him with copies of the recording so it would never be lost again. Sometimes technology isn't just about cables, servers, and code. Sometimes, it's about giving someone one more chance to hear the voice of the person they loved most.

    @virginmedia Look, I’ve just told you your chatbot thing is useless. I want you to contact me, and raise it as a big issue with a manager. I had intermittent internet for a month, and not once have virgin reached out to say why, what’s happening, or to apologise

    @virginmedia could you give us more information as to why the predicted time of resolution for fixing the service outage in Kent is 8pm tonight? Does it take that long to really reboot everything?

  • GeekyHairy
    GeekyHairyBestia (@GeekyHairy) reported

    @virginmedia is your new ploy to get people to use your mobile device then provide the worse broadband on the market that don’t even fully work 50% of the time so customers have to give you more money for mobile data. This handset never leaves the house and every month same issue

    @virginmedia I've been waiting for my broadband in the post for 3 weeks now, I'm living in an apartment that literally has no broadband so I can't do any work at home This is getting ridiculous now as they say that it's coming the next day and it never does.
