@virginmedia So it's not the devices. As I say it's only since this new hub. All I get when I ring customer services is run these tests etc equipment working fine but there must be some underlying problem somewhere

@virginmedia I am seriously considering changing to another broadband company at the end of my contract because I feel I am not getting the best service from virgin anymore

@virginmedia IT says there's no issues in the area, the speed test was done wirelessly. I have the hub in the same place I have always had the modems, hubs in. This issue has been ongoing ever since I received the newest hub. All wires are in tightly so it's not that. I have a new phone too

Moved from @virginmedia to @SkyUK but phone number hasn’t moved. @virginmedia say it’s possible to still port it and the response from @SkyUK - we don’t know how to do that, hang up and try to speak to someone else after 3 hours on the phone 🤬🤬🤬

@virginmedia Hmmmm thought that might get your attention. Still took you 2 hours to reply though 😡 You used to be the best customer service. Not anymore. 55 minutes is not acceptable.

@virginmedia Hi RCG, I say hours, was just short of an hour! All sorted now. My gripe is there should be a cancel/leave option on the website saves ringing up and waiting when you are leaving no matter what.

Just had a call from @virginmedia asking me what I use my network for, how many devices I have on the network. Please mind your own business, answers to these questions can be used by OCGs to target my home and only call me if you really have to. Thanks

@virginmedia Been with Virgin for 5 days of dreadful customer service, how can a mobile set up result in loss of all subscribed tv channels, held in queue for over an hour is the norm, will be cancelling my contract due to this total mismanagement #VirginMediaSucks

@SkyHelpTeam I’m on Facebook Messenger and three times I appear to have been passed around to another agent, three time’s being asked to provide my name and info. Then get told someone will be with me. This is really poor customer service. Come back @virginmedia, all is forgiven.

@virginmedia your customer service is abysmal. I am fed up of chatting to a robot or someone in india repeatedly asking me the same questions and getting absolutely nowhere. 3 engineer visits, many phonecalls, online chats (some not even answered) and still got nowhere.

@virginmedia @LadyHorkins Standard response from a truly shit company who tell lies and say an 82 yr old’s husband ordered sky films after he’d been dead for 9 months then deny any wrong doing in their internal enquiry. Then provide what I can only describe as a piss poor service ... don’t buy virgin

@virginmedia Well - it’s complicated… basically your retentions team mis-sold a bundle and tried to reverse out it - the good news is that I have finally found a customer service team member that a) listened and b) solved the problem. It’s been painful but (I think) it’s done. For now… 🤦🏻

@virginmedia @Rogerandout2000 Are we supposed to thank you for honouring a contract? Investing in your infrastructure comes out of your business plan and current pricing and not inflationary increases. This is bunce that you'll pocket. Still leaving because I'm fed up with rising prices and poor service.

@virginmedia Our neighbours had something installed and at the same time our internet went down, so the engineer messed something up.

@MartinSLewis Dog water company with zero customer service and lying operators on the other end of the line. Once Toob broadband is on my street I'll be leaving Virgin Media.

@virginmedia when are you restoring broadband to full power in G74, this service isn't cheap, please answer more than I'm sorry.

@virginmedia There are service issues but this doesn’t account for my appointment not being confirmed. Cables on pavement exposed.

@virginmedia I’ve got a WiFi pod installed also but it happens when I’m sat next to the route. It can be anywhere in the house. Thanks for the link though it doesn’t help. I’ve done it recently and previously. It’ll say a mix of things like interruption on the line but it doesn’t change it.

@virginmedia We asked you when we could cancel it was told anytime so we set up new suppliers so because of your operators incompetence we now have 2 suppliers.
