    @BlodAxeMox @ItsRusherr I had a similar issue about 18 months ago and it was actually Virgin Media at fault! Congestion on line and old splitters coming from the box on the street into my apartment! Might be worth a call to the ISP rush! For me it was timeouts on the line causing it .

    @NightlineIRL I’ve been waiting two weeks for a WiFi box from @virginmedia! I have called numerous times and my package has consistently failed to be delivered. Terrible service!

    @VirginMediaIE Maybe help schedule an engineer to install a Virgin Media Outlet. I tried calling to make an appointment but I'm not getting through with the connection dropping every time.

    @virginmedia Shocking experience @VirginMediaIE . Despite spending 5 hours on the phone cancelling my technician appointment and thinking the issue was resolved I get a message to say he’s arriving tomorrow. Where do I go from here?

    @SkyHelpIreland @SkyIreland My skybox is dead and the AI wants me to pay for an engineer. No. I am paying for a service that I am not receiving. So either Sky replaces the box or refunds me for a service I am no longer getting and I can move to my broadband provider virgin media

    This time last year I was working a delivery job just to survive and pay my car insurance/mobile bill and basic food shops. Fast forward a year. Now working to brilliant jobs with DIY SOS and Virgin Media, which I never would've got had I quit on Irish Football Fan TV.

    @virginmedia Hey, we need ordered a tv package with you on Tuesday and they said they would be here by Friday to install. Nothing. Not even a mail@or message to say when? Can’t get through to customer care all day yesterday or today? Please help

    Virgin Media really got it right with the movie choice this evening. Bad Santa 2.

  • MeganRoantree
    Megan Roantree (@MeganRoantree) reported from Dublin City, Leinster

    The fact that there is a weird, outdated weight-loss show on Virgin Media 2 just before #LoveIsland is just wild to me. So many young people are tuning in to watch Love Island and catching even 15 mins of this before hand does so much damage and is also just really out of touch?

    Adrian Weckler (@adrianweckler) reported from Dublin City, Leinster

    Virgin Media Ireland says it doesn’t have a “repair time frame” on a sizeable broadband outage affecting “the Dublin area”. It hopes that the undiagnosed issue will be fixed today as, “given the scale it would be very rare for this to continue for the full day”.

    @virginmedia I’m attempting to access this site but it does not appear to be working on your network which is quite funny! I’m attempting now on 4G but having problems getting into my account ! Ringing 1908

    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 I had no TV service for 16 days during the worldcup. Eventually fixed it and they refused to discount my bill because I still had internet. Been with them for nearly 7 years, renewals up soon and the best price they can offer is £15 DEARER than my current price.

  • APTSArchive
    APTS Archive (@APTSArchive) reported

    @virginmedia we notified you in early July that we would be moving on 31st. You deemed our new address as unserviceable & therefore there would be no early termination fee & to return the kit to you. I have made in excess of 10 phone calls with your moving home team - amount to several hours getting contradictory information every time I've phoned, depending on who I spoke with. On Wednesday you took £1,070 from our bank account, causing us to become overdrawn, despite assurances from your moving home team that there was an extension on our account in order to give us time to return the kit, & no early termination fee would be charged. The kit was returned to you on Wednesday morning. Upon phoning yesterday (yet again), I was dealt with someone that might as well have been a robot, he's inability to listen & constant repeating set phrases over & over again was of little help & particularly annoying. You have made the issue of moving home particularly difficult and stressful, which for a company of your size I find inexcusable. I emailed your moving home team on Tuesday & yesterday yet have still not received a reply, despite being told in a phone call my email would be dealt with as a matter or urgency! I'm resorting to public exposure in the vain hope there will be some action & you will expedite this matter.

    @stephenm68 @virginmedia That is awful. Virgin media have really done down hill in looking after their customers. All they care about is customer acquisition

  • putasinghonit
    putasinghonit (@putasinghonit) reported

    Anyone ever had @virginmedia charge them for a movie they never purchased? Theres no history on my app, box or even an email confirmation of said purchase mind you - just a charge on my bill for £17.99 which they say was purchased with a pin number on the box.

    Trying to cancel a virgin media broadband has to be as painful as pulling teeth without local anaesthetic

    @virginmedia Awful timing for a software update of @SkySports All over the weekend 🙄 Hope there is going to be some reduction in my bill?

    Hey, @virginmedia, I don’t have a problem with @SkySports. What I DO have a problem with is channels stuttering. Will the software update solve that?
