  • trottermick Mavis Cartwright (@trottermick) reported from Wigan, England

    @EmmettGraham @virginmedia I actually took the option of “Are You Thinking Of Leaving Us” earlier. I was answered quite quickly, but nothing was resolved. I was, as usual transferred to somebody else and then on hold for 10mins. Still nothing resolved with my issue, Good Luck to you.

  • trottermick Mavis Cartwright (@trottermick) reported from Wigan, England

    @EmmettGraham @virginmedia I sympathise with you, can’t get a straight answer from Virgin Media, You’re just passed from “pillar to Post”getting nowhere! such a Dire Company, Customer Service Non Existant! Anybody thinking of joining them should be aware and stay well away!!

  • trottermick Mavis Cartwright (@trottermick) reported from Wigan, England

    @EmmettGraham @virginmedia Well, I’m getting nowhere fast, Twitter reply said they could help, but haven’t. Just gave me a no to text to, which won’t accept texts, and a no to ring that I already had. Rung again to no avail. Can’t answer anything about my overdue refund, disgraceful!!

  • Allenwalkden Woggy (@Allenwalkden) reported from St Helens, England

    .@virginmedia you're flakey broadband had stop working, again! WA10, trying to work from home and it's so unreliable, can't wait to change at the end of my contract, you're service is a joke.

  • trottermick Mavis Cartwright (@trottermick) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia No that’s the problem nobody can tell me!! It’s 103 days since my services were switched off( after my 30days notice) 16th February my services were switched off. I just keep being told that numerous requests have been made to send my refund cheque!

  • paulridgway95 paul ridgway (@paulridgway95) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Tivo box was on for about 20 mins then shut down and re booted it's self

  • mrphilliptipton Phillip Tipton (@mrphilliptipton) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia I've done all that. Service was restored after two hours, but these breaks in service have been happening for three days now.

  • Allenwalkden Woggy (@Allenwalkden) reported from St Helens, England

    @sleepydeeves Yep .@virginmedia broadband and TV down in WA10, it's been flakey for months

  • mallen_87 Matt Allen #StayHomeSaveLives (@mallen_87) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia They keep closing it and I have to start from scratch. The issue is that my contract and my sales agreement are different. I thought I was getting somewhere last night when an advisor told me they’d get a manager. Instead they closed my chat

  • joniredchops Joniredchops (@joniredchops) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Cancelled yesterday. Was happy at £25 a month. Looks like we're off to Vodafone or Plusnet for £22. Shame really, been a decent service.

  • trottermick Mavis Cartwright (@trottermick) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Ring the no you gave me. Passsed on to Krishia. Told me cheque has been requested but doesn’t know why never been sent. Asked me to wait 7days and she will ring me back to see If I have received it. So no further forward!! Such a Dire Company!!

  • Satty7 Satty Lola (@Satty7) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam That does not help me…it’s 2pm!! Trying to speak to someone at Sky is like trying to get blood out of a stone!! So poor…compared to @virginmedia and @btsport - if this does not happen today are you going to pay for my day taken off to be at home?

  • mac_nicoll Mac Nicoll (@mac_nicoll) reported

    @virginmedia Do you think it’s acceptable or appropriate to keep people waiting for hours? I am STILL trying to cancel this contract.

  • AppletonTony Tony Appleton (@AppletonTony) reported

    @virginmedia Ok basic issue is that I have additional funds taken out of my account and am being asked to pay even more even though I gave the correct notice period to cancel - it’s as simple as that - can you resolve

  • Foodie_Lou Louise Harney (@Foodie_Lou) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t think that is an appropriate approach for them. They’ve want traditional style customer support. What to they have to do to get a real person over the phone?

  • Waz96970072 Waz (@Waz96970072) reported

    @virginmedia I asked them if they will install them back the same way to which they replied it may break and likely that the drive away tarmac will also be damaged and they won't be responsible for it. They have simply put the tiles back loose and unstable.

  • NiHaolain PsyColette🇮🇪🇵🇸 (@NiHaolain) reported

    @SharonLeavy1 Well going by the ads for NowTv on the virgin media player I’ve seen more of him in the last week than I have in years! 🙄 and the documentary was crap, so the ads for it are wrecking my head!

  • aryan86 Shaun (@aryan86) reported

    @virginmedia The text service is another BOT - So as ineffective as the online chat (that I waited 2 hours for) The information on the website cant help me. The lady I spoke to is supposed to be helping. But she called the wrong number. Can you sort it so she calls me back please

  • CotyHS2 Ian Moss (@CotyHS2) reported

    @virginmedia I suspect you were going to blame a "popular" program. If 1080 is a good sharp picture your service (proved) was sending out 360.

  • cjmarshall_ Clarissa (@cjmarshall_) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I have phoned them multiple times but never been given a direct answer. I am currently on the phone to them again and have been on hold for almost 1 hour.

  • ktnztigers Kieren (@ktnztigers) reported

    @virginmedia I have had no issues for almost 10 years. Now since Wednesday internet is having problems. Working from home means I need reliable internet. I gave called 7 times and been told 5 different things. Promised call backsbut never happen. Promised engineer then told no.
