@virginmedia hi. Trying to get through to you but permanently met with an automated voice. Please can someone contact me. We’ve been having broadband issues for a long time. tried to log into the hub but it says someone else is already logged in. We really need support from you.

@virginmedia Not officially complained as hoped it would be resolved due to repeated reassurances I’ve had! Shouldn’t have to log a complaint for your error (verified by your engineers)! Cost of GP Partner husband (&my) time far exceeds cost of line rental we are paying for no landline!

5th time today @virginmedia has gone down, got zero work done and no response from customer services. Last straw for me this, as if I'm not under enough stress from work as it is!

@virginmedia What's the procedure if this isn't rectified? It's not a unusual request, yet I'm around 10 days without phone service.

@virginmedia There are known issues in my area. Apparently 2 days in a row at, what i would imagine, are peak times. I seriously need to consider a new provider. This is getting beyond a joke for the money that I pay

@virginmedia Any advice on why our virgin media boxes have just decided to stop showing some channels. It says error code (W02) and this is on TLC which we used to watch daily?? Joke. What’s the point in paying for for a service which isn’t being provided?

Thanks for the reply @virginmedia but in your instructions following your system check on your site it states you will be sending a signal to my hub to improve something. Nowhere does it date for me to do a pinhole reset. So which is correct because you need to correct something

@Angriper @virginmedia @SkyUK If I could get Sky here (at least decent speeds) I'd have switched years ago mate. Although, the way things are going, I'd be better off with poor download speed and uptime, rather than super fast speeds and always down.

@virginmedia It always used to. It sees my address from the postcode & gives me the house number and street to choose, then asks me to complete a form for you to contact me to tell me within 10 days if the service is available in my area. It used to be instant, but no-one ever did contact me.

@virginmedia are the worst I’ve known them in 15 yrs! I’ve had no tv for the last few days and an engineer coming in a week! Really! Also have an outstanding contract issue since March 23rd. Promised call back by managers but never comes. Avoid them!!

@virginmedia Yes. 2 laptops and smart bulbs not working. Have disabled 5G and manually set channel to 6 or 11. The router diagnostics says there are WiFi issues but nothing else. Also your app on my phone can't check new Hub. Had been great with Hub3. Firestick 3 feet of router has problem!
