  • tenchylad Stu (@tenchylad) reported from Sunderland, England

    @OliverStanding @virginmedia It's not a great self serve option and poor customer experience. I have an issue trying to remove a service from my current package. Cant be done digitally or remotely. Only via phone which even then very few of the advisors have the levels of authority to amend your package.

  • Rainbowztwit Sarah (@Rainbowztwit) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    .@virginmedia Broadband down - phone line states because of 'improvements'- not expected back until 3pm. Why was there no notice so I could arrange to work from alternate location? How do I get warning in future?

    @TGA_Streams Virgin media down. Internet not working. How do I view guys.

  • InvisibleElf Invisible Elf (@InvisibleElf) reported

    @virginmedia OK, so this seems like a simple communication issue, probably aggravated by the fact we are speaking with people whose first language isn't English. So, I simply need to ask to be added as a third party?

  • zyvianxo zyvianxo (@zyvianxo) reported

    @virginmedia This didn’t help I’m afraid - I was just told it was fine - even though I’m sat here with the internet going off and on still

  • RachelGillies19 Rachel Gillies (@RachelGillies19) reported

    @virginmedia Still not rectified. Why would I return to you with such poor customer service. Also while we were with you the service was poor. I would like the issues with the connections dealt with as promised by area manager, and contact from complaint team re compo
