Mark 🏴 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Obviously i don't have proof because your site doesn't say send recorded so why would i, my number was ported in July and I wrote same time, I have no reason to not send letter and you can see from any data usage that I stopped using your service
-
Mark Connolly (@macon1375) reported from Crayford, England@virginmedia Of course. I’ve done everything required of me: I was told it’s caused by my home move and the disconnection due on 12th. Things seem to have been prematurely actioned affecting my signal
-
Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Hi, the VMGo app is telling me I need to upgrade to watch live tv but I’ve got the right package to have access and have until today watched live via the app. Is there an issue? Tried restarting it etc.
-
Mark 🏴 (@WhiskyOneIce) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Yes I have chased and chased and spent 4 hours today on WhatsApp, no advise just can't help because I have outstanding bill....no the line isn't active because it was ported over to Community Fibre on 8th July
-
Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia I’ve sorted the issue. But now there’s no way of cancelling the engineer! Can’t get through on phone. Appointment isn’t showing on their account, so can’t cancel there. WhatsApp is useless - been waiting for an Agent to be available since about 1pm!
-
Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England@virginmedia Think it's more to do with the upgrade work then; when I select Help from the Help & Settings menu, the screen goes blank. I'm thinking it needs a network connection to work. Any plans for a Hub with built in 02 sim to increase connectivity? Currently hot spotting my phone.
-
Gerry (@guinnessaddick) reported from Dartford, England@thorogodies @Missbwattie @virginmedia We don’t have many problems with ours, surprised you do, as you’re only round the corner, must be a box problem.
-
chris cox (@coxychris) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia why are no one answering your lines all I wanna do is cancel my package
-
Janet E Baldwin 🌸 (@JanetEBaldwin) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@_andy_pandy_ @virginmedia Outrageous 😱 I’d cancel my subscription.
-
VenusEnvi (@VenusEnvi) reported from Grays, England@virginmedia what’s the point of asking me to text when I’m ready to set up the new hub if your going to deactivate the old one before I’m ready!! Good job I have unlimited data on my mobile network!!
-
DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia 9/ speak but he kept interrupting me. He had no help for me for having no internet for 6 days. He kept sighing and refused to put me through to anyone who could offer anymore help.
-
DragonFish 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇮🇹 (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia 1/ I've been without internet access since last night. I called this morning at 830 and did reset as told, didn't work so was told it'd be passed on to network engineers and they'd get back to me if it didn't come back on within the hour.
-
Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from Romford, EnglandSo @virginmedia want £288 to cancel a contract I've had since 2018. Can I get through to anyone to speak about it? NO!!
-
Joseph Sweeney (@JosephS65112253) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia I’m going into my 5 week of problems with this crap company they say they will investigate but nothing, no compensation nothing.
-
Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, EnglandListening to the broadband presentation on @itvMLshow with some irony. I pay @virginmedia £79/month for broadband/phone & TV. BB/TV failed in November, after many calls they say it will be fixed in March 2023 😬 Compensation is only calculated when service is restored 😪 Fair?
-
Kim Edwards (@KimEdwards48) reported from Stifford, England@AmandaSeager @virginmedia Same in Central London, my Company uses Virgin and we have had issues all day long
-
Paul Dwyer (@pauldee74) reported from Grays, England@virginmedia @YodelOnline again day 3 of waiting for package spoke on webchat kept getting told its coming today + check tracking but tracking saying was delivered yesterday! another day wasted and taken off work yodel please help! I just need to know its coming today and a time
-
Justin 🇺🇦 (@J4Y_DEE) reported from Gravesend, England@virginmedia @VMHelpDesk Broadband down in my area, this is frustrating. Reckon it’ll be fixed by 9. No tv & Broadband during the school holidays
-
Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England@virginmedia Phoned, and as expected; they can't just "put this right". The equipment and service are working fine. That the dish is broken and there is little slack to enable me to bury the cable deeper is due to local engineers. Will just have to dig trench, break cable and wait again!
