    @virginmedia @VMSolutions_ hay I just want to transfer the account ownership to my roommate. But I tried to call u three times, each time I hv to wait 2hrs, but no one could help me to solve it, only transfer to other departments, and wait !!!!!!

    Hannah Williams (@flamingnora) reported from Lambeth, England

    @CameronYardeJnr @virginmedia Apparently it’s a scam. The problem is the company’s actual call centres are so dreadful it’s almost impossible to tell the difference

  • PJacksonClark

    @virginmedia Thanks KF for your speedy reply. But since "Frankie Bot" and I started chatting three hours ago via customer service chat I've been left waiting. Is that as good as it gets?

    @virginmedia Just been cut off for a second time this afternoon. Fantastic customer service offered my virgin media. Can someone please get in contact with me ASAP.

  • gendal
    Richard Gendal Brown (@gendal) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your help but this is a problem only Three can sort! Their new system works where it’s deployed. The problem is that they haven’t deployed it everywhere - eg Elizabeth Line.

    Called Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.

  • JaneCommon
    Jane Common (@JaneCommon) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia It obviously is an area issue as we have an area WhatsApp group and everyone’s internet is down: but I don’t have time to call as I have appointments all afternoon and knowi will be stuck in a queue for an hour minimum. Can you email to alert them to the issue???

    @virginmedia what’s going on again with this internet at sw4? You just can’t fix a problem? Please don’t come up with your usual excuses and fix itttttt..

  • BobCratchitt
    Andee Byford (@BobCratchitt) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia But your hub has died and as such I cannot access my broadband, use my landline as you moved it from copper to Ethernet and the TV services are impacted as I cannot record, watch the BBC or any streaming service. In short an outage.

  • millwalljdb
    Millwall halfwayline (@millwalljdb) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I am trying to watch millwall on the sky sports red button service.....the commentary is of the wrong game.....can you fix please.....this is not effecting sky viewers

    Your website for checking status is not loading. Can you verify if there are known issues with broadband in the se3 area. Thanks @virginmedia

  • befitat50
    Befitat50 (@befitat50) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Guys it seems to me @virginmedia is the only one that has problems? My neighbour who uses “talk talk” has never ever had a problem.. I am tired of @virginmedia excuses and I will leave, had enough of it thou..

  • squeakytoy
    Steven Peterson 🏳️‍🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve now had to call again myself because the end of the business day is here and nobody ever called me back. What’s the resolution when nobody ever calls when they promise to?

  • hillmandan
    Daniel Hillman (@hillmandan) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia So after 10 days and loads of phone calls I’m still without any virgin services . For a communications business you are very poor at communicating to your customer and as for the complaints link 28 days to respond is a joke. I bet my bill arrives on time though !!! #whatajoke

  • AdrianLiard

    @virginmedia Still bad this morning and seems as if no one from your side @virginmedia cares about it at all.. What should I do? Leave you guys..

  • RDG_C
    Richard D G Cox (rcox.bsky.social) (@RDG_C) reported

    Hello @virginmedia might you please have your legal department confirm their address for service of documents such as, for example, formal “letters before action”? It would of course have been preferable if the question had not had to be asked, but … we are where we are.

  • DerekMcguire44
    Derek (@DerekMcguire44) reported

    @virginmedia You have left my 86 year old dad without a phone or internet. He now has no way of contacting family , doctor , hospital or even emergency services if required. Your engineer attended, couldn’t fix it and left. Not good enough!!

  • AnthonyHoc69184
    Anthony Hockey (@AnthonyHoc69184) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve done that many times and it keeps happening, so as I said before, it’s either bc yr equipment is reconditioned or bc yr equipment outside is poor. Maybe I’ll see how sky tv is before I make a decision re my contract next August

  • emnm69backup
    parody of a parody of a parody of nothing (@emnm69backup) reported

    Hey @virginmedia Why are there constant broadband issues in the fy4 area? Regular cut offs. At least half a dozen times so far this month. Contract to soon, so maybe time to switch if you can't provide a reliable service. Ps,your chat bot is also as useless as your broadband.

    @virginmedia @TheAFC0522 The issue is not watching Sky sports. You cannot get the red button games via the browser or app!!

    Alison Baddley (Ali) 🇬🇧 (@alibee2006) reported

    @TVKev Omg that's all we need. It's bad enough talking to a bot when you phone companies like Virgin Media. Sorry I didn't get that. My response whilst going nuts. Human please NOW! How the hell are the elderly and vulnerable supposed to cope with this?! Human receptionists NOT AI.

    @virginmedia please can I have an update on service status in RG31 6

  • lazylazydude
    youwouldntknowme (@lazylazydude) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t think you get it. When I say multiple calls, I mean daily. I’ve told your customer service not to contact me. They said they’d make a note and wouldn’t, then called the next day anyway. Worst company I’ve ever had the misfortune to deal with.
