    @virginmedia just spoke to Saba in your technical department and wow how rude can someone be?! Think she needs to go back to customer service school!

    @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 Quite frankly sick of having to sort this out every month and spending my own time dealing with your errors

  • MrJHolt
    John Holt (@MrJHolt) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia It might be worth you reading my previous tweets. I have done a considerable amount of various things to fix the issue. Shouldn't need to call when you've confirmed by email. Unless you're willing to pay for my time.

    @virginmedia Yeah we're just going to wait yet again for you to "fix" the problem, not holding my breath! And yet you chose to address this and not the rude customer service I received 🤔

  • MrJHolt
    John Holt (@MrJHolt) reported from South Shore, England

    @Bannedanaliens1 @virginmedia I'm having similar issues. If you pay by Direct Debit you can claim from the DD guarantee, doesn't solve the speed but gives them a kick.

    Sandra Jane Eyre (@TheICC_Sandra) reported from Southport, England

    Feeling let down AGAIN by @virginmedia, 8 days ago an engineer finally identifies the problem is external cabling, another hour call on Tuesday and still no idea of a fix date or a call back, in the meantime constant broadband drop out #unacceptable

    @virginmedia Where to begin🙄 started with instillation issues, then accused of lying, then billed for stuff that was free in my deal, set up for billing wrong, then just completely wrong bills, then advised my deal was increasing in fixed fee contract, then someone made changes on my

    @O2 yet again I have to deal with your hateful webpage & app. Since your ill advised tie in with virgin media the whole experience is awful. If it weren’t for your coverage, I would leave immediately. Just signing in is a minefield, gave up on VAT invoice yrs ago, just the pits.

    Jim Harrigan (@Bloodrave1984) reported

    @virginmedia Fix your internet because I've been getting disconnects and reconnect every few minutes. This is not good enough given the bill I pay, I expect reliable service not this sub-standard unreliable service. Maybe I should contact Trading Standards for breach of Contract

    @Juleswynnes @Zero_9873 The "attack" occured on a Thurs night, he appeared on Virgin media the following Tues without a mark on him! Did Allah granted him a miracle or was he lying (again). The 2 "angels" that came to his aid have never come forward, ambulance was not called, so many holes in his story
