    @virginmedia Hi. Please read the thread. One App doesn't work properly, my TV box is generally fine. From a quick Google I can see it is a problem for other people with Virgin Media TiVo boxes too where the @All4 app doesn't load programmes. I can access the app and all the menu screens.

    @virginmedia So, 3 phone calls over 50 mins all cut off! All I wanted to do was pay off a handset and upgrade a contract. Customer service 0/10!

  • kennythekilt kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Your staff should put the customer first pass the enquiry to another team member take break late or offer a call back

    @InTheseHeels Have you tried turning it on and off again? .....OK in all seriousness it happens to me on my LAN . I concluded as I'm on a domestic connection, Virgin Media , I suspect they refresh the network to loose dormant connections periodically and I get booted off for a few secs

  • steevXIII Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I've been having this issue continuously for a couple of months and they are still continuing. Yes.

    @virginmedia what a truly awful service. 3hours to try and sort a confirm username error,..from you! 7 days I’ve waited for you to sort the email out. Numerous calls...and still no one actually listens or cares. I think I’ve explained it to most of your call centre still no help

  • leipperm m (@leipperm) reported from Braintree, England

    It's annoying that @virginmedia customer service refused to acknowledge this other persons details had some how been linked to my email with my bank account on their account.

    @virginmedia Phoned that number tells me what I already know, which is the service is not usable, like it says on your servicetracker you know what the problem is so why do you keep moving the ETA time if you know what the problem is? 3-days of inconvenient! Please sort it!

    Day 6 without internet now and the silence from @vmbusiness and @vmbusinesshelp is deafening. If this is them taking customer service seriously, I'd hate to see them fooling around

    @virginmedia You never manage to exceed expectations anymore. Ordered a new i phone for my daughters birthday, delivery arranged for today and confirmed several times with your sales team that it would be with me. Just rang to check and lo and behold it WON'T be with me today..
