@virginmedia I see. It is very unfortunate as I cannot do my work when I’m not online and I also spend more on mobile internet because the service I pay for regularly is simply not there.

@virginmedia Yes. There is a known issue in my area but no "explanation". It's states the fix estimate is 3pm. That's almost a whole day's salary.

@virginmedia I’ve sorted the problem I think. Or maybe until the next time it goes off. I’ve disconnected coax cable etc and blew them clean and tightened them back up and done a speed test and it’s up to 365mb download speed. Hopefully this has fixed problem

Please be aware everyone when you get a inbox from virgin media. I got one yesterday asking about my account and asking me to send my card details and card holder name and security number to verify the account. It wasn’t virgin media but a scam. Because my internet was down. Scum

Ha ha @virginmedia it’s gone off again. This is twice since dinner time where it’s just randomly turned itself off. #annoying and yes it’s saying there’s nothing wrong with the service in my area. So why does it turn itself off ffs

@virginmedia Struggling to get anyone at Virgin to resolve an issue of being disconnected by Virgin staff incompetence. 4 days wasted. Umpteen calls, lack of calls back etc. If anyone in customer service cares please DM me ASAP before I have a breakdown.

@virginmedia I'm not having trouble getting through @virginmedia, I'm having trouble finding one of your team who is capable of cancelling a contract. Cancellation is taken from the date on my letter and not the date your team bother to process it? I have zero faith in you resolving this.

@virginmedia @Ofcom still waiting Virgin 1 week after moving into my new home (6-7 weeks since I gave Virgin advance notice) for broadband access. Just how incompetent are you at resolving basic customer issues? ***Still waiting*** on account reset snail mail details. A shambles!

@virginmedia so I pay for 350mbs and for the last week I have had less than 120, now it’s less than 10mbs, shall I pay you for the service you provide?

@Matthew_Wright @virginmedia Sounds JUST like @NBBCouncil who still haven’t been out to clean up the ****. The council phoned me today asking if I was pleased with the clean up, I told her it hadn’t been done. She was surprised coz the cleaning team sent her a video. They can’t even locate the front door.

@virginmedia Online customer service is pointless as you won’t handle package enquiries online. 5 attempts to speak to someone and over 2hrs on hold today alone! Finally get through to be put on hold and then hung up on. Your customer service is shocking!! Sort yourselves out!!
