  • ciaranharkin ℂ𝕚𝕒𝕣𝕒𝕟 (@ciaranharkin) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia hi really need to cancel my broadband account with yourselves but i cant get thru and been ringing for the past couple of days. My new bill has come out (which is extortionate) i was told i could cancel before this but its proving difficult

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia you’ve sent me an outrageous bill with £35 in charges that you said you were waiving. Non of your call centres are open (undertandably) I cant get text support & there’s no other help available. You are going to bill me £120 for a £50 service and I can stop you.

  • stu_nico Stu Nicholls (@stu_nico) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    So the lack of response and the fact there is no online option to manage my BT Sport subscription means I have no option to choke up the call lines.. So much for easing the burden and stress on the customer service teams you employ @virginmedia @Virgin

  • dave6018 David (@dave6018) reported from Penwortham, England

    Wow @virginmedia love how your retention team just put the disconnection through and never offered me any thing to even try and convince me to stay

  • Dannymaddog Danny McKeown-Henshall (@Dannymaddog) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @PeterBayliss @Ofcom Must be a local issue for you - I’ve been relying on @ThreeUK for broadband as my @virginmedia 100mbps fibre line has been epically slow even phone calls made on Wifi calling are bad, switch to mobile and it’s perfect 👌

  • RB10__ rafik (@RB10__) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Predicted fix 3pm? Please tell me this is wrong!! I have work to do

  • davemckane Dave McKane (@davemckane) reported

    @VirginMediaIE @virginmedia Hi Monica! Blanchardstown Village. My colleague is attempting to connect with customer support on the telephone. The white light was still flashing when we came in this morning.

  • pholmes38 PCH (@pholmes38) reported

    @virginmedia Surely I can't be relying on customers to fix a Virgin proprietary app. And if Virgin technical staff are on there, why can't they just look into resolving it based on the information on the faults I have posted above? Why should I have to duplicate the information?

  • ESEOFLARE maria (@ESEOFLARE) reported

    @virginmedia it says that there are no known issues.

  • xiaomiaa Mia Tjim (@xiaomiaa) reported

    @virginmedia hi, can you let me know when the issue will be fixed? I’m wfh and have no Wi-Fi atm.

  • jbanningww1 Jeremy Banning (@jbanningww1) reported

    @N16Breda @hildreth_roger @virginmedia I complained a lot and they offered me it. I'd much rather have the email working. Like you, I have no idea of timeline for the fix

  • EmmaOB18 Emma OB (@EmmaOB18) reported

    @virginmedia seriously 24 hours with a problem on email with your super fast broadband is ok? What a useless service

  • Jadmock01 Keith Davidson (@Jadmock01) reported

    @virginmedia why does my upstairs box always stop playing on demand programs after about 10mins saying this service is no longer available??

  • N16Breda N16Breda #VaccinesWork (@N16Breda) reported

    @virginmedia Mmmm, afraid not John. 150 First line support transferred me to the Faults teams to check status of my ticket - and their line was engaged. I appreciate this is outside the scope of VM soc med team but the whole situation is Kafkaesque. I'll be venting here until it's fixed...

  • mikesime2 mike sime (@mikesime2) reported
