Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

-BMiller- (@BMiller36990477) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Sure, office this morning at about 8am. No service and Internet access by 9.30M and popped back late morning and still nothing around 10.45am. So finished my admin at home with my own broadband connection. Didn't call or raise the issue as its a pointless exercise. Cheers

Kaiser Soothsays (@_SonOfTheDesert) reported@virginmedia No. Because it’ll end up as a hard reset and we’ll lose all our recorded stuff. When are you going to bring out a box that saves content to the cloud? That way, there’d be no issue.
-
(tez7n2) (@MickeyDN7) reported@virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Here's the thing ! We don't want to use a ******* website or an app ! We have a thing called a TV !!!!! Get the ****** sorted or give back the money you're taking from people's bank accounts for a **** service !
-
Meersham (@Schmuley_Schlo) reported@heid_the_baw_ @virginmedia I chose plusnet because their customer service is good, never had much trouble been with them for years now after switching every couple of years
-
Richard Geraint Evans (@RGE_Art) reported@JFab208 @virginmedia I hope you don't have to endure the hell that is modern day corporate customer services ...
-
Andy Anderson 🇬🇧 Defund the BBC! ♋️ (@shelf_life64) reported@virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Two weeks to fix this is wholly unacceptable…. I’m starting to suspect you’re having another spat with Sky or your engineers are all on holiday!! As you are well aware casting is not available from the Sky Sports app… A bill credit to all affected would be welcome for this!
-
Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported@tilalx @virginmedia It is. And nobody seems to have any information about what (if anything) is actually being done about the issue in our area
-
Paul Green (@pgreen83) reported@virginmedia And idea what you have not replied to my post and now ignoring my DMs? Breach of contract and you are now in breach of your complaint procedure
-
Lisa (@LisaPatten2) reported@virginmedia nearly 24 hours with no TV channels and the fix time is 28th August. What am i supposed to do for the next 8 days? What exactly am I paying 150 quid a month for?
-
Sammy Mcfarlane (@SammyMcfarlane1) reported@virginmedia @alexand979677 BTW, it is an absolute farce that o can’t sign in to check my bills unless I get another email address that isn’t a virgin one. Who thought that one out?
-
🎯DartingMelon⛩️ (@DartingMelon) reported@alexand979677 @virginmedia open a complaint against them mate let it sit un resolved youll be able then to take it to the ombudsman who’ll rule in your favour for paying for services you haven’t been able to access. Worked for companies like this before never works out well for them also used this mysself.
