  • peteholbrook Peter Holbrook (he) (@peteholbrook) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia In relation to a potential weakness in security. I’ve got a retro phone with no caller ID. I have a name, they provided a customer licence number for me to check and to authenticate them as genuine . I have a name and they said they were phoning from Hampshire.

  • walshChanny Channy (@walshChanny) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Yes I did, a VM agent went through the whole event and resolved it for me. There are thousands of VM customers in a FaceBook group suffering similar problems it is called Virgin Media Customer Service.

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia With 20 devices connected to reinstall? What's? This is a solution? Wow thanks

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from London, England

  • peteholbrook Peter Holbrook (he) (@peteholbrook) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Just dialled1471 The originating number was 01424 850444 does that help?

  • becshawyer Becca (@becshawyer) reported from Wickford, England

    @virginmedia disgusting customer service ... after months of issues still not being resolved our latest phone call after raising a complaint the customer service representative hung up on me! Getting to the point now where we will be leaving 😡

  • Adrianmilesarch Adrian Miles (@Adrianmilesarch) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Service status says no known issues but when I call over the phone an automated message refers to intermittent problems last two days and that engineers are taking a long time to fix complex problems. Currently ok but recently every day there is a long period of issues.

  • jim_dawes James Dawes (@jim_dawes) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia no broadband, WiFi or TV services in the SE7 area until 5pm today is completely unacceptable for people working from home. Engineering faults should not be happening during the day. £8 compensation is absolute peanuts. Very poor indeed.

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Or need please an email where I can wrote to solve some problems. Absurd can't communicate

  • jeanrauwers Jean Rauwers (@jeanrauwers) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia getting these emails saying “we are sorry you are leaving” but I didn’t cancel my service with you guys. Should I be worried about it?

  • KBHeadteacher Keith Barr (@KBHeadteacher) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia any chance of connectivity @KenderSchool ... ? Any help would be welcomed, please...

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Please i need to have assistance on some Wi-Fi problem and in friend referral. Can't find in the help pages, need a human contact thanks

  • peteholbrook Peter Holbrook (he) (@peteholbrook) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia had a phone call from Virgin Technical Support. How can i be sure this is genuine ?

  • PinkDotty_Sarah Sarah Yard (@PinkDotty_Sarah) reported from London, England

    I have noticed a lot of people complain about the service received from @virginmedia for broadband. @Ofcom please can you look into this? We pay for a service that has constantly let us down for many months.

  • AdiStaempfli Adi Staempfli (@AdiStaempfli) reported from London, England

    I understand it takes time to replace fibre optics. I don‘t understand why @virginmedia sends out messages that are plain wrong. My connection is not working, has not been working ever since Tuesday evening. Is this to avoid having to pay back customers?

  • CheukRuby Ruby Lau (@CheukRuby) reported from London, England

    Internet is down since 1am this morning @virginmedia Reset hub but no use...... My virgin media showing no service outage in my area.......

  • JamesJWalsh James-J Walsh (@JamesJWalsh) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I have been “on hold” since 1851 for a customer service agent. This is kinda cementing my view of needing to leave.

  • walshChanny Channy (@walshChanny) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia That is what happened. If it didn’t happened to you it is even more strange. Do you want me to do it again and record it? In the meantime, I was contacted today and agreed a way forwards to stay with VM. It is quite hard to have to deal with bad customer care while grieving.

  • Adrianmilesarch Adrian Miles (@Adrianmilesarch) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia broadband has been absolutely dire in the last few weeks. Phases of outage or sun 2mbps speeds. Anyone else experiencing similar in SE26 area? Remember it was around cold snap it got bad - maybe affected the infrastructure.

  • PinkDotty_Sarah Sarah Yard (@PinkDotty_Sarah) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Thank you but we have complained and no response. We are with you because you offer 200Mb and we need that, the closest competitor offers only 60Mb. It’s frustrating that we are paying for a service that is not guaranteed

  • activist84 gerisays (@activist84) reported from Beeston, England

    When you’re on the phone to @virginmedia to sort a broadband issue get placed on “hold” while the customer advisor “speaks to a colleague” to be informed the offices are now closed! Absolutely appalling customer service!!! And still haven’t sorted the issue 🙄🙄🙄🙄

  • a17dy2003 Andy baxter (@a17dy2003) reported

    @virginmedia I am still having issues as I expected! This is ridiculously poor!! I have tried everything you suggested! So tomorrow I’m going to refit my old hub as the new super hub 3 is fit for nothing other than the bin 🤬

  • MasonPitt Mason Pitt {} Twitch = Aradear (@MasonPitt) reported

    @virginmedia Tbh unless there are issues in our area (Which is says there isn't) I think our hub might be the issue, it's the hub 3.0, the lights are all messed up, constantly changes between flashing green lights and solid green lights, it's been reset also.

  • woof_zomby ZombyWoof (@woof_zomby) reported

    @virginmedia can you make the fast forward like it was, somebody has updated it and made it really ****.

  • LaurenceTheBird Larry L'Oiseau Blanc 🧩 #MIGA (@LaurenceTheBird) reported

    @virginmedia Your coverage of sport (specifically rugby) is not good and I cannot get the signal in HD ?

  • HarryEdwards236 Harry White Live (@HarryEdwards236) reported

    @virginmedia When Virgin Media send you a survey to ask for your feedback on the services they provide.They must be having a laugh conserdring if you ever have an issue with a service they just forget to log it after 3 hours of being on the phone. Then the phone calls go missing

  • Tasara22 Tasara22 (@Tasara22) reported
