  • sophsweet Sophie Sweatman (@sophsweet) reported from Falmouth, England

    @SumayyaBfd @JustMeBeingMe4 @virginmedia I would recommend Utility Warehouse as they provide discounts for more utilities and other sustainability things and their customer service are really responsive, even during lockdown.

  • grannyluvsdub grannyluvsdub (@grannyluvsdub) reported from Porthtowan, England

    @EdwardJDavey @timleunig @virginmedia Problem is that it's the same across the board. Bad Comms & ridiculous processes to blame in my limited experience.

  • Jo3Day Joe Day (@Jo3Day) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t believe I’ve been out of OX11 postcode since issues started however I don’t believe others have had issues, making me believe it’s possibly a problem with my phone itself?

  • _Clean_Nuclear Nuclear (@_Clean_Nuclear) reported

    @virginmedia And even here your "cut n paste" help continues

  • Jo3Day Joe Day (@Jo3Day) reported

    @virginmedia experiencing issues with my iPhones 4g, not sure whether it’s my phone or issues with the network?

  • Etw_public Sam H (@Etw_public) reported

    @virginmedia Chat says "We'd like to continue this conversation on WhatsApp." I don't use/want to use WhatsApp and shouldn't be being forced towards a 3rd party service like that for customer support & currently paying twice what new customers do 2/2

  • emma_adkins33 emma adkins (@emma_adkins33) reported

    @virginmedia No I'm not ringing for a fourth time, you can contact me! I've cancelled the direct debit due to the fact you took a months payment in aug for a service i had already cancelled and under no circumstances will you be doing it again!!

  • Jake48678630 Jake (@Jake48678630) reported

    @virginmedia I’m not wasting my time with the link thanks. Will find another provider. Thanks for the help

  • emmalouise78 EmmaLouise (@emmalouise78) reported

    I am so angry right now with how I am being treated by @virginmedia that I have made a complaint. Guess what my reference number is!!! Nothing, the space for this was blank. You can't even let me people make complaints without messing me about. This is an absolute joke.

  • SaffsAI Bam Bam (@SaffsAI) reported from Bradford, England

    Why companies like @virginmedia use WhatsApp support I do not know. The system makes you wait an hour, if you don't respond in 10 minutes, it kicks you off the chat just to make you wait again

  • marklewins Mark Lewins (@marklewins) reported

    @virginmedia Hello. Having followed the instructions to switch to Wifi Max, there are 2 issues; 1. The VM Connect App cannot be installed on any phone in my house. All running Android 12. So that test cannot be done. 2. We have powerline boosters (free) from VM. Can we swap...

  • _Clean_Nuclear Nuclear (@_Clean_Nuclear) reported

    @virginmedia My only options are CICAS or OFCOM. There is no central point to have issues resolved. None of your staff seems to have the ability to coordinate a resolution without passing me from call centre to call centre. I'm embarrassed to have ever recommended you.
