    @virginmedia Thanks for you lack of response @virginmedia, obviously customer support or helping out my 86 year old mother who lives alone get her phone back and working is not a priority to you, maybe @SkyHelpTeam will be more helpful when I call them tomorrow, disgraceful customer service

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Crewe, England

    @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.

    @virginmedia @O2 10 year customer here, seems you have made it impossible to talk to someone on the phone now? we have been having problems ever since corona mostly tolerable 1 day issues. Today and yesterday we have no upload on our internet. If this is not fixed today, we will be leaving.

  • shielyule Shiel Yule (@shielyule) reported

    @virginmedia Maybe I could get some actual customer support as discussing over twitter is a bit of a joke? you have my email, phone etc what is stopping your customer service actually contacting me? Is that not the service you sell?

  • gracehsoro Grace 💕 (@gracehsoro) reported

    @virginmedia I'm having trouble accessing games on my Switch and PS4. Everything else seems to be working fine. It's just odd that the things it's effecting happen to games consoles 🥲🤔

  • DeltaDeltaOBE Davies (@DeltaDeltaOBE) reported

    Looks like @virginmedia is down in quite a few places all over the country. It would be nice for some updates.

  • CrystalHill141 Crystal Hill🌸 (@CrystalHill141) reported

  • SimShergz Simran (@SimShergz) reported

    Prime Video is so terrible on @virginmedia. I use the app and the tv goes fuzzy and then I have to restart the whole box every time?

  • viva_la_raza_86 T Raza (@viva_la_raza_86) reported

    @virginmedia what do I have to do to get my Internet working and make a complaint about your rude staff members and poor customer service. Leaving me on hold for 30mins at a time. Lying to me by saying they will send engineers out and then don't.

  • namespace_dave Dave Green (@namespace_dave) reported

    Anyone else in the UK struggling to connect to #github via CLI or web? I'm on Virgin Media and having issues this morning.
