ScottPhoto (@smarshallphoto) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England@gracedavies I had a dream that I Met a Boy Online was used by Virgin Media in a TV advert, and you got paid a ****-ton of money. Does that count?
-
Louise Baldock 💙 (@LouiseBaldock) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England2 calls on landline from Asia, using dummy UK phone numbers, pretending to be from Virgin Media, telling me of a problem with the security of my router. Neither liked it when I told them their mother and father would be deeply ashamed if they knew what their son was doing.

Simon (@SimonHolliday13) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England@virginmedia Unfortunately it's still not fixed. No TV and no Internet. Both keep dropping in and out intermittently.

-
Andy Gibson (@Lopek) reported from Darlington, England@virginmedia It's the continued problems that annoy me. Down again now, third time this Easter Weekend. Yes it's showing as down on your dashboard. I always check & flag it when I (also) have a problem. Getting worse all the time. Beyond a joke.

Martin Jones (@MHartleyJones) reported@virginmedia OK Thanks. A technician will be visiting us tomorrow, though I suspect that the fault is in your exchange switch. My point is that you should keep repairs and sales separate. A customer with a serious phone problem is unlikely to buy extra services at that time.

Captain Nemesis says *settlers are criminals (@Annoyntmint) reportedI wish to cancel my subscription with virgin media. Check my DM to you. @virginmedia

(Re)Search & Destroy (@TruthAsylum121) reportedTHREAD 9 — COMMUNITY CALLING AND THE MONEY BEHIND THE DEVICES The Community Calling programme gives us another important part of the story. Virgin Media O2 and Hubbub have worked together to collect and redistribute unwanted smartphones. Migrant Help has been one of the organisations receiving devices for asylum seekers and refugees. Then there is the Tech Lending Community Fund. The first phase was worth £400,000 and supported charity partners to establish tablet-lending hubs. The projects included organisations such as Thames Reach, the Kurdish and Middle Eastern Women’s Organisation, Willowacre Trust, Refuge and Leeds Refugee Forum, with tablets and O2 data being made available through the programme. In Swansea, around 700 donated phones were distributed through a Community Calling project, with O2 providing 12 months of free data, calls and texts. Swansea Asylum Seekers Support made 127 referrals to the scheme in 2021. Its records also show £8,175 spent on phone top-ups, covering 1,160 £10 top-ups. There was another £2,400 provided by Hay Brecon Talgarth Sanctuary for Refugees. The funding came through organisations including the Moondance Foundation, Comic Relief/SCVS Emergency Fund and Welsh Government/SCVS Integration Care Fund. This is where the investigation starts moving beyond technology companies. There is philanthropic money. There is council money. There is Government money. There is corporate money. And there are charities distributing the resulting technology.

Simone-Lee Deal (@StiffNips2) reported@JimMooreJourno CEO is too busy counting his £1 mil package to give a ****, and Burnham shows no interest in dealing with it. Amazing that it's a merry-go-round of useless bastards buggering up companies; he used to be at British Gas, equal only to Virgin Media for dissatisfied customers.

Karen (@KarenLancs) reported@O2 @virginmedia had no internet since 7am - intermittent signal! Now says no broadband issues, but still cannot connect - PR5 area - please sort it out!
-
Ashley Smith (@AshleySmithUK) reported@virginmedia New contract Jul 31. Netflix completely broken, web throwing errors, and profile is showing an incorrect phone number that isn't mine. Called, used WhatsApp, zero help. Logged formal complaint and got a generic 28-day wait. Unacceptable customer service. Fix this.

Lynne Harper (@LynneHa33713143) reported@andyburnham Just keep issuing massive fines to these companies like you did with Virgin Media until these companies make it much less complicated to cancel their subscriptions.

Investigation Findings The regulatory investigation covered calls made between January 1, 2022, and September 11, 2024. Ofcom found that MILLIONS of customer service interactions were mishandled to prevent or delay cancellations. Specific tactics included: • Deliberately dropping or hanging up calls when customers asked to cancel. Putting callers on hold for no reason to frustrate them Excessive and unnecessary call transfers between departments. Using a two-tier retention system where only specific agents were allowed to process final cancellations. THIS LOT ARE CONFIRMED CRUEL SCAMMERS
