    @virginmedia Pretty sure you could be asking fir my details in a DM. Otherwise, what was the point in replying to me in the first place. Never mind, I’ll stick to keep calling.

    @virginmedia I was extremely impressed with the service that I received tonight to arrange for my services to be looked at on the 3rd of October. The handlers manners were perfect and I'm delighted with the service that we received. Please pass this onto him, thanks.

    @virginmedia Possibly the worst company I have ever dealt with. Cut off twice. I only wanted to buy a new remote. Absolute shambles of a company. Disgraceful customer service.

    @virginmedia why just you just call me under the guise of "offering me a discount on my services" then offer me a deal that means me paying for an extra service I don't currently use or want?

  • nuttynanaannie
    Anne Marie McPhee (@nuttynanaannie) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi, thank you for replying. I can't see where to register. I did another service check and it says an intermittent service fault is affecting my area. But gives no guidance/option to register for loss of service. Guidance please.

  • nuttynanaannie
    Anne Marie McPhee (@nuttynanaannie) reported from Motherwell, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi, no, it initially says no issues in area on testing hub it says there's an intermittent problem with connection and come back in 18 hours!

    Karen Sime 💙 #TeamNHS (@Karencrafts) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @MargMarvelous @virginmedia I know. Virgin is down in Glasgow but I still need a new hub as the reset button on mine is broken. I’ve been going in circles on the app and website for the best part of an hour. A simple email address would have resolved it in 5 minutes!

    Never ever going with Virgin Media again. Internet has been down for nearly 24 hrs, and it's been down nearly everyday for at least 1-5 hours over the course of the last week or two.

    𝕽𝖚55𝖊𝖑𝖑 𝕱𝖚𝖑𝖙𝖔𝖓 (@rjmfulton) reported from Thornliebank, Scotland

    @virginmedia hi, just wondering if your support staff are trained on identifying and handling complaints properly? So far “to express my dissatisfaction” and “I would like to complain” haven’t worked.

  • tonymccaffery
    Tony McCaffery (he/they) (@tonymccaffery) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    Hey @virginmedia, can you help please? I’ve never plugged a landline phone to my router since becoming a customer. (I never needed one til now). So I just took the voip/landline adapter out the box and it’s broken. How do I get a new one so that I can plug in a landline? Thanks.

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

    Guys supposedly from @bt_uk going round the doors in EK saying my neighbours have complained of slow internet speeds. That's ok I'm on VirginMedia. They asked me to do a speed test on my phone. I told them to piss off. 1 I'm not a BT customer 2 I'm not your data source

    @virginmedia my internet was down for almost a month (now restored), but I haven’t received any automatic compensation. Please look into this urgently so I don't need to involve ombudsman.

  • loldiplo
    Diplo (@loldiplo) reported

    @virginmedia Already got one booked in. I will be complaining however as you already are charging a substantial amount for a service you’re clearly incapable of providing.

  • ForkYeah07
    Moderately Sarcastic (@ForkYeah07) reported

    An absolute nightmare getting onboard with Virgin Media broadband. They changed my appointment on the last day. Who the hell is going to pay me for the inconvenience this will have? This is absolutely ridiculous. Is this the service you guys provide?? @virginmedia

  • PC_ale
    Paul Caley (@PC_ale) reported

    @virginmedia the people on web chat not working today? Been getting the still in a queue message for almost the last hour and a half. Is it to raise a complaint? So who do talk to raise a complaint about raising a complaint, as the method to raise a complaint is not working!

  • The_real_Jambo_
    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @virginmedia Internet, and subsequently TV, have been down since yesterday in G67 area. Someone posted a picture of the junction box knocked over, any idea of how long to fix? I work from home and need the Internet to do my job. This needs fixed ASAP.
