    @gashead @virginmedia Bizarre that it’s not actually Kelly causing an issue yet they’re being very helpful for me! Unfortunately not sorted! Honestly lost all faith in it being resolved. Never had such an issue trying to get an answer from a company. Hope you get sorted too!

    @virginmedia Hi I'm trying to contact you via the phone number sent to me by post to cancel the services I currently have with you but have been on the phone for nearly a hour now with no answer, do you have the operating times for your price change number? Thanks

    Hi @virginmedia we rent a property with virgin fibre, download speed is fast but upload very low. I can’t login to account as it’s not mine. Suggestions?

    Big E (@lutonmagoo) reported from Caddington, England

    @virginmedia I will call this number at some point today when it’s appropriate but no it’s still not working and when I put in my area code still says sorry we cannot tell you what’s going on?

  • Claydon8Tim
    tim (@Claydon8Tim) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia Sorry. That’s it. Sorry. Yes I’ve checked and the WiFi is now working. I also checked and I’ll still be billed the full amount for a 2nd rate service that doesn’t in anyway match your glitzy empty advertising campaigns.

  • sjdhatters
    I Make Stuff Up On Tw*tter (@sjdhatters) reported from Stoke Mandeville, England

    @virginmedia I refer back to my original tweet. Zero attempt to resolve my issue. Just can't do it. Your solution is not acceptable to me or new owner. Can you please provide details on how to escalate this to a complaint? What if I cancel DD and then set up new DD with new owner details?

  • randellauk82
    Ashley (@randellauk82) reported from Luton, England

  • Pensar_Mark
    Mark Williams (@Pensar_Mark) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @virginmedia Still no reply from @virginmedia over 8 hours after they promised they would call. Was told I would be called back at 12:00. It’s now 20:15. They seem to be oblivious to the very notion of customer service. #completefail

  • mrmarkgale
    Mark Gale (@mrmarkgale) reported from Hemel Hempstead, England

    @virginmedia Honestly, do you think 2.92mb when I'm paying for 500mb is acceptable. Been a customer for 20 years, I can't wait to leave you!

  • LisaKathryn5
    Lisa Kathryn (@LisaKathryn5) reported from St Albans, England

    @virginmedia what is happening in AL3? Now saying 9am tomorrow before broadband repaired, this is almost a day of lost working time. Service is so bad, what is being done to make it more reliable?

    @virginmedia hello, could you follow me so I can message regarding an issue with a hotel wifi? I was given a virgin media email address but no one has responded and it’s been over a month. Thanks.

  • Andrew007Uk
    Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for trying. Three Exec Dept people in the last 10 days promised to call me back after initial calls - none have. I have put it all in an e-mail against what I believe is my reference number. I want the mobile internet service you've arranged to work.

  • TotallyFD
    Adam (@TotallyFD) reported from Kings Langley, England

    @virginmedia Hi, how can I get support for my mobile phone? I’m a new customer and am having issues making and receiving calls. There is no help on the app for what I need. Thanks

  • nicholasjemetta
    Nicholas Jemetta (@nicholasjemetta) reported from Hitchin, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to help my mother-in-law who’s a registered cater, with her broadband. Her wi-fi signal is very patchy and it’s causing her problems (plus unnecessary extra stress). She has a Hub 3; can she get a Hub 4 without upgrading to Gig 1?

    @Dratcliffe1986 @virginmedia @ExeterBub You need to first register the outage through Virgin media itself. I do this everytime there is an outage. Virgin will usually then give you any compensation, if they don't, then report to Ofcom.

    @JFab208 @virginmedia Its never going to be a success. Go back to the satellite dish. Was far better. Id never touch any Internet co

  • 4peterborough
    🇬🇧 Andy🇬🇧 (@4peterborough) reported

    @virginmedia A recent software update for Virgin TV 360 and Stream boxes intentionally changed the startup behavior so the box now boots directly to the Home screen instead of the last watched channel. This update aims to give you quicker access to your apps, recordings, and recommendations. It's all a social media. Everyone hates it. Do you take feedback from? Your customer

  • APTSArchive
    APTS Archive (@APTSArchive) reported

    @virginmedia we notified you in early July that we would be moving on 31st. You deemed our new address as unserviceable & therefore there would be no early termination fee & to return the kit to you. I have made in excess of 10 phone calls with your moving home team - amount to several hours getting contradictory information every time I've phoned, depending on who I spoke with. On Wednesday you took £1,070 from our bank account, causing us to become overdrawn, despite assurances from your moving home team that there was an extension on our account in order to give us time to return the kit, & no early termination fee would be charged. The kit was returned to you on Wednesday morning. Upon phoning yesterday (yet again), I was dealt with someone that might as well have been a robot, he's inability to listen & constant repeating set phrases over & over again was of little help & particularly annoying. You have made the issue of moving home particularly difficult and stressful, which for a company of your size I find inexcusable. I emailed your moving home team on Tuesday & yesterday yet have still not received a reply, despite being told in a phone call my email would be dealt with as a matter or urgency! I'm resorting to public exposure in the vain hope there will be some action & you will expedite this matter.

    @DartingMelon @alexand979677 @virginmedia Easiest thing to do is phon them up and ask for a loss of service credit, they literally have to give you the money back. No need to wait for the ombudsman etc. you only really need that when your at the deadlock stage
