    @virginmedia Except I can’t because I get fobbed off and they just try to get me to upgrade my package. Seriously. I’d just like to know if there is some systemic complex issue, as you suggest, or not.

    @virginmedia hi, unable to send emails when attached to WiFi Is there a known problem?

    Alli (@Alli3Fifer) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

    @virginmedia It will be interesting to know what ofcoms view is of virgin continuing to sell a service that has been known not to be working since at least Oct. Is it not an option to go back to a standard phone line rather than VOIP for vulnerable customers??

    Patrick McCarthy (@PatMcCarthy37) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia About 14 days ago I kept being asked to reset my password. On the 3rd or 4th occasion I was locked out. The first Help Desk person said 'suspicious activity' and escalated the problem. The second person said that the address was not associated with the primary account holder 1/2

    @virginmedia poor show @virgin media. Nothing works! Not even the app or your service status page.

  • vcash78
    victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia I am on the phone right now and like I’ve said. The service I am receiving is disgusting. 40 minutes call and to be told that in a #CostOfLivingCrisis you want £650+ to disconnect a service. Must’ve been robbers you merged with as this is criminal behaviour.

    Need a new service provider @virginmedia has just gone up by £25. Recommendations please.

    @andrewducker I did have two rather stressful conversations with Virginmedia a couple of months back. In the first one they offered me a terrible offer and said it was the best and moving took ages. They did this in a slow way, always trying to divert the conversation. 1/

    @virginmedia Is there a broadband outage in Edinburgh EH11 just now?

  • lesley_neilan
    Lesley Neilan (@lesley_neilan) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Hi @virginmedia I am trying unsuccessfully to contact you about my current contract. I don’t have WhatsApp and your online help link doesn’t help. My old fashioned ‘telephone’ call ended with ‘there was a fault’. Are there any humans around?

  • pumphysaysNO
    Lord Galoot (@pumphysaysNO) reported from Broxburn, Scotland

    @virginmedia i havent had tv for 5 days now, technician was meant to call yesterday or 8am this morning, no call, any chance of getting a service i pay for

  • SobukweScozia
    James Smith 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇹🇿🇦 (@SobukweScozia) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia BTW. It’s not an ‘intermittent’ issue - I’ve had no service at all for 18 hours, and what exactly does ‘taking us a little longer than usual’ to fix actually mean?

  • effiefenton
    Effie Fenton (@effiefenton) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia it would be a great idea if you could save priority installation slots for those in greatest need, like those with disabilities who need a phone line installed for a telecare service. So they don't have to wait a month. Just a thought.

  • trippfuller
    trippfuller (@trippfuller) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia is the worst. Three days of off and on service has cost me significant time and money.

  • vcash78
    victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia what’s going on. No service alllllll day in EH14 area?! Working from home impossible today … great service!

  • thefyvies
    David Fyvie (@thefyvies) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia It’s been horrific for the last 4-5 days although today is by far the worst.

  • ashjrox
    Ashley (@ashjrox) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    I've had rude calls with some staff, spent over £9 on calls to @TravelodgeUK to get this refunded for the charity, their customer service emailed saying that even though two of their staff & virgin media said I should get a refund that they are not going to refund. #badservice

  • thelifeoftul
    Tullia (@thelifeoftul) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @ScottM083 @virginmedia If that’s the case then Virgin need to communicate this to their customers as the lack of communication is doing more damage than the lack of wifi at this point! 🙈

  • lethalshirl
    Shirley Monteith (@lethalshirl) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Broadband is intermittent & says connection is unstable. I’ve done all checks. Also my remote for V6 box is not working & can’t pair the new remote with the TiVo box - light doesn’t go off & remote doesn’t beep. I’d like someone to come & look at both.

  • wshiells
    willie shiells (@wshiells) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia , spent 2 hours online chat with yourselves, then passed onto customer service , now 5 hours later still no response. Worst customer service out there folks

    @virginmedia no internet, but I need to wait 5 days for engineer! You say you invest millions and increase prices. Been with you since 2010. Why is it so difficult to log a complaint on the phone too? Shocking & ridiculous service. My contract is due in 2 months.

    Jemski (@jemski7) reported

    @virginmedia well done. You’ve lost me as a customer of 25 years because you wouldn’t supply me just broadband like you do for new customers. That’s is some ****** up priorities. Good riddance to you.

    Ashley Reade (@AshReade) reported

    @virginmedia funny thing is you say call so I do, or you make promises you don't keep, your supposed manager cut off a vulnerable customer . #Virgin #Ofcom

    @virginmedia Appalling service! Do not try and transfer to new address, just cancel it and be done!

    @virginmedia First thing this morning you said the outage in my area (22) would continue for another week,then another message saying it would be fixed today, and now a message saying it'll be a week again. Is there a playbook you guys are using to wind up its customers?
