    Not very often I say good things about @virginmedia but todays service was excellent. Peter sorted out Wi-fi problem, wavered the set up fee, and arranged a new hub after lots of line tests. Thank you. (But will have no service for 6 days in all.🙄 Refund?)

    @virginmedia can someone please message me. I have been struggling to get hold of someone to **** and resolve a home telephone. I have been promised call backs to resolve this long overdue complaint. But still wait to speak to someone!

    @virginmedia Afternoon, I have an iPad with a Virgin SIM card that I no longer use. Obviously still need to pay off the monthly device fee but am I able to cancel the SIM plan?

    @virginmedia The cookies are always active. As I said I didn’t close the browser I just refreshed the page. So now 5 slots are taken by my MacBook. But it won’t allow me to watch on my MacBook so what can you do to help me?

  • BooCavapoo
    BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia please sort out the issues with the WiFi, Internet, broadband or whatever the term us these days. It is constantly slow or not working. Having to use mobile data is not an effective substitute for the service I am paying for.

    @virginmedia Reported the problem yesterday after your response. Should have been fixed by 10am today apparently, but still nothing.

    @virginmedia Yeah I've seen that already thanks, but it's not going to help the kids with accessing homework online. no I am not on a B account as of yet as I have only just started out in the last week 😑 but even if I was on a B account it would still be off so doesn't make any difference

  • Nicole_Baker
    Coley B (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia Ooo a response! Now I have a dilemma - do I have to complain about the length of time it took to even try to help me with my original complaint? I do sincerely hope I actually get somewhere this time. The time I have spent trying to resolve this is astronomical!

    SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia Account which then changed my bill been in the phone today to customer service who advised it’s fixed now and will have the confirmation through, and just had it and it is still wrong. I have had someone called Ross from billing,dealing with this but now no response from him 🙄

    SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia please can I have a direct contact for complaints. I don’t want a generic email, I want someone higher to sort out the same issue I am having every month 😤😡🤬

  • StephenMonk1970
    The Monk (@StephenMonk1970) reported from Preston, England

    Help @virginmedia. Once again I'm left unable to ring my doctors because you attempted the direct debit early and it failed. My Oomph sim will now not work until I make a payment. Please that's all I want to do. Do I need to go to Ofcom or the Ombudsman. This seriously effects me

  • SammyKnowlesX
    SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia Where to begin🙄 started with instillation issues, then accused of lying, then billed for stuff that was free in my deal, set up for billing wrong, then just completely wrong bills, then advised my deal was increasing in fixed fee contract, then someone made changes on my

    Jason Brown (@JasonB2582) reported

    @virginmedia Seems to be an issue with the SNLUK on demand playback for the latest episode. The ad breaks are in the incorrect places etc meaning content is missed. Not sure if it's a Virgin Media or Sky On Demand issue.

    BallyD Typos are my speciality🤷🏼 🇬🇧 (@DaveBall65) reported

    @virginmedia lates news on. Urging Box still has the same fault Chat to VM because Calling is stressful Finally arrange an engineer on 13 th Get a text last night coming today 12 th Have hospital appointment today But can cancel virgin and it will cost me £25 Terrible

    Andy Duncan (@andyduncan84) reported

    @virginmedia I’m having problems with your newly installed service. Your chat service is rubbish & I’ve been on hold for over 45mins! This is not a great start! Someone better get in touch with me soon or I’ll be cancelling my direct debit!

    SE1 one of the biggest postcodes in London and theres been no @virginmedia most of the day ,now theres a fix time of tomorrow night at 11pm.I would strongly advise anyone to go with any other Internet provider and avoid these useless charlatans.

  • old_stephen
    Stephen Old German - English Translator (@old_stephen) reported

    @virginmedia Cannot log into VM again. Were you born useless or did you have to practice? I am going to change to another provider which has better customer service. I am told that Sky customers only have to make a phone call to get help.

  • Donaldman34
    Alex Bellew (@Donaldman34) reported

    @virginmedia I am trying to cancel my contract, and every time your chatbot says it is going to connect me to an actual human, the chat disconnects and starts again. This is moderately infuriating to say the least. Can you fix this
