    @BookDreamerSal @virginmedia Having the same problem. Just called Virgin - it seems many people are too. They're trying to sort it.

    @virginhelp @virginmedia I need some way to resolve this, and can’t be the only one stuck in this situation. I can provide birth certificates, passports, etc, etc. Your support staff want 3 letters of a password nobody knows.

    @virginmedia I have, and I get an automated service that hangs up on me after sending a text. I just want to order wifipods. I’ve tested the speed in the app, but it’s not allowing me to do anything. Chat doesn’t work, and calling won’t let me speak to anyone.

    @virginmedia If it's better customer service then that would be better than having to be with O2

    @virginmedia Thank you for your reply. He told me that the cheque had not been activated when I first called 5th June. I was told it would be sent out via check. He told me today it would take a further 2/3 weeks. Sadly was no help at all. 😒😥

    Mary Shanahan (@ShanahanMary) reported from Bristol, England

    Not happy with @virginmedia paying £70 a month for tv/(which is awful) internet and landline - want to delete tv still (£61) - internet drops out all the time exit fees would be £240 anyone else find them extortionate for poor service?

  • AndyMWilcox
    Andy Wilcox (@AndyMWilcox) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia My broadband keeps disconnecting. This is my 4th time contacting and it gets worse each time you apparently fix something. Please can you fix it. I cannot work at home and I’ve just been booted out of your online chat to resolve the problem!

  • j_bettany
    Jacob (@j_bettany) reported from Clevedon, England

    So many scammers calling from '@VirginMedia Technical Support' at the moment. 5 in 24 hours. I've taken to suggesting they might think about getting a different job but heartbreaking to get the response, 'can you give me one?' It's basically #organisedcrime built on #poverty

    @Virgin @virginmedia @virginhelp well it's now been 21 hours since I was passed over to the help desk for picture break up on all channels on TiVo box and I'm still waiting this is shocking

    Chris (@chrisandobe) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia I been with virgin for years and last month was put on the new virgin O2 SIM deal. I'm already looking forward to when I can cancel the O2 SIM only part. Couldn't get any help with O2 but luckily the person at virgin helped me.

    Honestly, #virginmedia , #Fortnite AND #rocketleague down on the same day?! My son has pretty much had an emotional breakdown.

  • AcuharmonyUK
    Acuharmony-UK (@AcuharmonyUK) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia No reported issues. Tried the fixes before, and so did virgin chat. Not just my handset, other people are having the same problem. Am I going to have to change networks, is that what you're saying? Due to the change to O2?

  • tinabadley
    Tina Badley (@tinabadley) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Same as about a month ago. Said I need to enter password. But doesn't work. Have tried resetting password. Still no good. Webmail says can't access my emails right now. And when I go to the sign in page it has my name as 'Jackie' top right though the main page says 'Hi Tina'.

    Farming groups say they are disappointed following a meeting with Agriculture Minister Martin Heydon, where they raised concerns about fodder shortages caused by this summer’s heatwave and drought conditions. The Minister says the Government will consider additional support for farmers in the upcoming Budget, but representative groups were hoping for concrete promises today. They are warning the impact could soon cost us all at the supermarket. 📺 More on Virgin Media PLAY

    @virginmedia awful service. Still waiting for my tech engineer to arrive - time given by a Virgin 12-4pm. Now told another engineer will be with me ‘shortly’ but no time given! Seriously considering switching to BT

    Sue Henderson 💙 (@HathorsDaughter) reported

    @IainSankey @virginmedia They're dreadful. When I enquired about social tariffs via their chat facility the agent spent ten minutes trying to add on extra fees. I decided then I'd never have anything to do with company which would exploit poor and disabled people. Enjoy your dinner and drinkies.

    @virginmedia have you now sorted the problem or will the next game be the same? We're paying for a service you're not providing. I assume you'll be compensating accordingly. 2 games, 2 failures. #useless
