@virginmedia I called the help line and a bot told me to restart my router twice and then proceeded to end the call. Little fed up

@virginmedia Thanks for reply. Problem was that no agent ever responded to move requests via the bot. I sat for 1hr on the phone last night and finally got it booked. If the bot had worked 1st time I’d be switched on when I move. Now I’ll be without service for a week. Not good when wfh!

@BBCRedButton I don't think your red button service is working on @virginmedia. It's brings up the iPlayer but no live stuff like the springwatch webcams

@lxwissssss @MartinEdition @virginmedia Mine is excellent once they replaced the wiring because it was old and now mine never goes off and it’s super fast! The English call centres are great but the Indian and Philippines ones are really bad I avoid them because they just read off scripts!

What an absolute farce @virginmedia are. Pay a ridiculous amount each month for slow broadband that regularly doesn’t work. Now on to a second day with no service and TiVo is also down. Pathetic.

@virginmedia Should that not be your job to check and then tell me the answer. You havnt really solved the problem by telling me to check my area. You should know if there’s any problems where ever they may be

@virginmedia And it has just cut out again and your bot via the number above just said restart the router and put the phone down on me. Slightly concerned that it lasted 5 days again and decided to come back to disconnecting?

. @virginmedia rang virgin last week to move house. You've done the external install yesterday but haven't turned up for internal install today. Tried to log into my account and it says my package is cancelled no options for support at all. Called and hung up on before answer.

@virginmedia @virginmedia service from you has been poor for months - missing the footie is just the last straw. Kindly send an engineer to fix our broadband - the wires at the wall outside are exposed and when we test each day our speeds are below 20MB/s when we are paying for 100+ Thank you

@virginmedia So I expected a call today before 12pm from business team I also logged a call back on the website for one of the team to call me before 12pm. Engineer on Friday said someone would call in the morning it’s now just gone after 12 and I am still waiting? This is poor?!

@virginmedia Then when transferred to ‘customer care’ so that I could complain and seek compensation, I waited another 20mins and was eventually cut off without speaking to anyone.

@virginmedia @coopuk please note, last week I requested confirmation on if you are going to continue to advertise on GBNews. I have not received this confirmation. If I get no response before the end of this week, I will move/cancel my accounts with you.

@virginmedia outage in TF area. Internet has been down since 11am? Estimated fix time is 3pm? How are we supposed to work from home?! I hope you will be giving compensation for this.

@virginmedia I use that and it says the upstairs has good coverage, but if my one son is on the computer I cant watch any thing on the firestick as it keeps cutting off and the same the other way round . My phone gets very poor coverage upstairs too

@virginmedia Yes it’s another outage in the area which doesn’t help when we are all working from home trying to earn a living!

(@debstergr) reported
@virginmedia So basically you’re asking me to join a forum where other Virgin Media customers might help me answer my query?? No mate, I’m paying nigh on £100 a month for your services. It’s surely down to your company to ensure I’m getting what I’m paying for??

@virginmedia I understand that, there’s nothing I can do about it. I just thinks it disgusting business practice and ethically crap to charge people that kind of money when I didn’t want to leave Virgin it’s yourselves who can’t provide the service so I’m forced to.

@virginmedia i logged a complaint over six weeks ago, no one has called me about it and I have called weekly to discuss it but every time I'm just told someone will call me back. I'm not going round in circles any more so need to take this further.

@virginmedia I honestly don’t have time for this. It’ll be a lot easier to just cancel the contract when it’s done.
