    Tim (@sockformation) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia I’m trying to install my broadband, but don’t have the right socket at home. I was told I wouldn’t need an engineer which is why I booked it in now. Also, my password isn’t working so I can’t do anything. Please help because at the moment I’ll be paying for nothing

  • thejpwphotos
    Jon P Watson Photography (@thejpwphotos) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia But no TV service for another 2 days. Not acceptable, and this is being paid for. No offer to even send a quick install box I can do myself.

    @Denise09262928 @vallyrogNCFC @virginmedia Down to zero.

    @virginmedia please DM for help as I am having continued problems with the wifi that are just unacceptable

  • DrS_Reynolds

    @virginmedia I don’t think you understand. We don’t have any broadband. We can connect to the router but it’s not connected to the network

  • buntyhoven
    Hannah O'Hanrahahanrahan (@buntyhoven) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia It's no problem really - we have the TV remote for the volume so it's OK. Is there no way of programming the remote or is it just that it's faulty?

  • thejpwphotos
    Jon P Watson Photography (@thejpwphotos) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia Complaint - package price is wrong and everyone keeps promising to sort, but still haven't. Broadband - keeps dropping out. When issue occured last time router swap fixed it. I need an engineer to come out and fix today but nobody can help.

    @virginmedia @ravaldhiren My bbc1 hd still not working

  • thejpwphotos
    Jon P Watson Photography (@thejpwphotos) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia Your auto comp service is ridiculous. And besides, it's not just about the fact it's a paid service - it's the fact no service for several days. This doesn't need an engineer, I just need a box. You have a base just up the road from me, maybe I should go knock on their door.

    @virginmedia Yup. We got an email saying you were switching us off and then switching it all back on again this evening. It’s a planned outage.

    @virginmedia what’s up in Norwich???? Anyone! What am I paying for??? Every week it’s the same old ****.

  • DrS_Reynolds
    Shirley Reynolds #FBPE (@DrS_Reynolds) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia It’s not relevant what the service page tells us about this area - the problem is that we have had no internet since Sunday and want to know when we will be reconnected.

  • thejpwphotos
    Jon P Watson Photography (@thejpwphotos) reported from Norwich, England

    The service I've had from @virginmedia has been absolutely awful! If I treated my customers this way I would be out of business. Complaint has been dragging on for 2 months now, with loads of empty promises. Now I'm being messed about with my broadband service not working ->

  • Tall2D
    Mark Standbrook (@Tall2D) reported from Norwich, England

    Three years with @virginmedia involved runaway price hikes, terrible customer service and promises of higher speeds that never materialised.

    @virginmedia Honestly I was on a web chat for over 3 hours yesterday and two hours this morning and got nowhere so I’m a bit jaded. But if you can help yes pmease

  • buntyhoven
    Hannah O'Hanrahahanrahan (@buntyhoven) reported from Norwich, England

    How easy is it to pair a new Virgin Media remote to a TIVo box? My current remote is not working very well anymore so I've ordered a new one and now I'm panicking. (YES I've changed the batteries/checked the sensors etc)

  • DrS_Reynolds
    Shirley Reynolds #FBPE (@DrS_Reynolds) reported from Norwich, England

    @virginmedia Local service problems for 5 days. Surely would at least make the local news!
