@virginmedia The number used 01455443469 in the UK. They said they had detected problems on our router & wanted to help. They asked me to enter a web site. Having spent almost 40 years in IT I felt it was wrong. The router does have slow moments but I had not reported it.

Two days have now passed and they have heard nothing. They have no phone or internet and Dad is 80. Please can someone contact me and I will provide further details by DM. This is poor service for what you class as a vulnerable age group. I have tried to call you #virginmedia

@virginmedia No! I'm not a customer its @KezMH who you need to apologise to. Seemingly your lack of ability to even read this thread properly emphasises your lack of ability to provide acceptable customer service

@virginmedia I’ve not had any confirmation. I get put on hold while speaking to disconnections and then the line just goes dead every time. I’ve spend over 2 hours on the line trying to sort this out and no one can seem to cancel my contract.

@virginmedia Excuses, your sales reps should let new customers know it may take a year for installation so they don’t cancel their previous provider before hand and Aren’t left without tv and internet for 3 months.

@atetoomanymars @virginmedia I can’t check if our landline is down because we don’t actually use it. There’s got to be a way to register the fault. You could try the link to complain I was given yesterday- that might be one way to register it? I will go and get it…

@virginmedia I’ve just been told by a friend that you’ve advised 3 weeks to restore service. Someone else has been told this was planned works and customers notified - I certainly haven’t been warned in advance. I will be contacting @Ofcom
