    @virginmedia I have got this sorted with your team now. Helpful person. But I suggest changing your auto system to give callers an idea of wait time. Better customer service.

    Matthew Turner (@MTurnerNFL) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia The only issue I have with that is that every time I contact that number, the following happens: 1) I explain the issue, again 2) they advise me to follow the steps as are online, again, that I've already done, even though I say I've done them 3) they ask me to monitor 1/2

  • coxtonycox
    Tony Cox (@coxtonycox) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia stop emailing and texting me every day threatening to fine me £100 for the non return of your equipment. On 23 August I booked for one of your engineers to collect it on 13 September. This poor customer service is one of the reasons I left Virgin after 10+ years.

    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.

    Daniel Fry (@DanielFry23) reported from Filton, England

    @bt_uk No need to Matt, appreciate your concerns I’m just saying your service currently is the same level as virgin media who I’m with which always cuts in and hot. Too many users using the overcrowded boxes

  • 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'.

  • williamjbrown
    william brown (@williamjbrown) reported from Bristol, England

    @BorisJohnson I can only get virginmedia (at an extortionate price) as it’s the only one who supply more than slow basic speeds - and this is the centre of bristol. Nothings improved for most of us - not only for this but everything else since you’ve wrecked our economy

  • follow_the_bear
    Bear Holland (@follow_the_bear) reported

    @virginmedia You should be compensating 33% of daily contract price per day of outage. If not maybe if enough customers group together and approach CISAS then they’ll force you to compensate for loss of service plus interest.

  • StephenHampson
    Stephen Hampson (@StephenHampson) reported

    @virginmedia so channels are down and can't even go on the status on your website as that's down. When you will start compensation for your unreliable service or do I need to send another complaint through? Only way you'll take notice

  • Shaun_Wren
    Shaun Wren (@Shaun_Wren) reported

    I’ve had zero TV signal since before lunchtime @virginmedia and was wondering if you’re going to actually sort it out and as a gesture of good faith knock money off this months bill
