@virginmedia Okay let me start from the beginning and just read everything I say and then give me a solution. I tried watching on my Mac last night. It kept telling me to register my device so I did. And now it’s saying there’s max devices registered and won’t let me watch anything

@virginmedia Don't really want to waste another hour of my life calling back yet again! Already wasted 2 hrs was given a 'direct" number which no-one answered. Call centre can't help or understand problem. What is the point? Do U get reimbursement for all the inconvenience @virginmedia ?

@virginmedia Ooo a response! Now I have a dilemma - do I have to complain about the length of time it took to even try to help me with my original complaint? I do sincerely hope I actually get somewhere this time. The time I have spent trying to resolve this is astronomical!

@virginmedia am I to take your complete and utter silence as the refusal to resolve the outstanding complaint?!? the utter disregard you continuously display towards your customers is disgraceful. You should be ashamed. @MartinSLewis

AVOID @virginmedia AT ANY COST! Royal Mail have now lost my phone and VM are refusing to honor the £128 trade in quote, instead are offering me £28 for the lost device, how does Virgin continue to scam and mislead customers at every step. This is an issue between VM & RM, not me

@virginmedia Whats the point of this, you are wasting my time once again. I have gone through this and been on calls, nothing gets recorded against my account. I am tired of the terrible service provided by your organisation

@virginmedia @BBCNews @BBCWatchdog ... I called multiple times and they just hang up on you. If you read the tweets they are so sorry for everything but then just send you to their site to sit in a chat Window. ...

Never using Virgin Media again. Absolutely shocking customer service, takes hours to get through on the phone so I tried the web chat and it’s currently unavailable? How am I supposed to discuss my account if I can’t get through? All they care about is money

@virginmedia I was just told there was a fault in my area and they are working on it. But when I do a service check in my area it just says the TV is down, not the broadband.

@virginmedia Nice try. This does not state if you have 1 IP address with 2 NATs, 1 for the hotspot and 1 for the customer. Which is what I am trying to clarify. That FAQ is for users, not engineers (in the wrong country trying to troubleshoot something.)

@virginmedia Thanks, I've been registering the outages as they have been happening. Ideally, I'd like to terminate my contract as this is now ongoing every couple of days, could you please let me have a contact number where I can do this. Cheers.
