  • neilcairns Neil Cairns (@neilcairns) reported from Bristol, England

  • vinnievoke vinnie voke (@vinnievoke) reported from Bristol, England

    @Virgin @virginmedia @virginhelp well it's now been 21 hours since I was passed over to the help desk for picture break up on all channels on TiVo box and I'm still waiting this is shocking

  • neilcairns Neil Cairns (@neilcairns) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Yes. Powered down, switched off etc etc. Why would only certain content not delete and other content delete fine? Doesn’t make sense?

  • martinparfrey Martin Parfrey (@martinparfrey) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia, your customer support is shocking. Any chance I could speak to a human being not a BOT? Even when I tried to complain, you cut me off!

  • tinabadley Tina Badley (@tinabadley) reported from Bristol, England

    Has anyone else's @virginmedia email gone down AGAIN? I'm trying to run a business here.

  • gillih Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England

    Hi @virginmedia @helpvirginmedia @VirginMediaCorp why won’t my Outlook connect to your server? No emails for 3 days. It’s an issue your end yet no help from your tech team.

  • coxtonycox Tony Cox (@coxtonycox) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia stop emailing and texting me every day threatening to fine me £100 for the non return of your equipment. On 23 August I booked for one of your engineers to collect it on 13 September. This poor customer service is one of the reasons I left Virgin after 10+ years.

  • 1Joshwa 🚑🌈Josh 🇪🇺👨‍⚕️ (@1Joshwa) reported from Bristol, England

    So why is it impossible to speak to a real person at @virginmedia ? Live chat is down, phone leads to a system test then hangs up. I just want to speak to someone 😩 #virginmedia

  • tinabadley Tina Badley (@tinabadley) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Same as about a month ago. Said I need to enter password. But doesn't work. Have tried resetting password. Still no good. Webmail says can't access my emails right now. And when I go to the sign in page it has my name as 'Jackie' top right though the main page says 'Hi Tina'.

  • neilcairns Neil Cairns (@neilcairns) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Why can’t anyone just forward a message or reply to an email? Why does the customer always have to do something else? Absolute ball ache as usual with this nonsense. Wonder how quickly you’d fix issues if people stopped paying their bills?

  • MarkAnstee2 Mark (@MarkAnstee2) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @paulatkinsonuk @virginmedia Virgin hubs are known for poor wifi signal the hub 4 aint much better i ended up getting an old home hub router and turning that into a wifi access point . Though if you do get a hub 4 beware of overheating along with virgin wifi boosters.

  • vinnievoke vinnie voke (@vinnievoke) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp so 17h with no reply wicked costumer service

  • Fingers247 Mark Round (@Fingers247) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginhelp @virginmedia I need some way to resolve this, and can’t be the only one stuck in this situation. I can provide birth certificates, passports, etc, etc. Your support staff want 3 letters of a password nobody knows.

  • tinabadley Tina Badley (@tinabadley) reported from Bristol, England

    @henningmc_ @virginmedia Nightmare! At least I have a paperback to help me get to sleep!
