-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England@vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Ah, so when there will be nothing to do or see you will become interested, is that the customer service ethos at VMB? Staggering, but not surprising
-
travelling Adam (@TravellingAdam) reported from Blackheath, EnglandVirgin why do I keep losing my mobile network? @virginmedia (been trying to post this since 11am lol) as I have virgin broadband as well. 😤
-
Baz, Wacky worm! (@mobiusb2) reported from Lambeth, EnglandOh great Broadband broken! , and now got to wait in for Virgin media to fix it tommorow afternoon. Probably punishment for not watching the funeral.
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England@vmbusiness outage estimated fix date is 20/09. What planet are you lot on?
-
Mitch Manning 💜💙🦁🇺🇦 (@MitchM77) reported from Worcester Park, England@neilpr85 @virginmedia Yes, this! Oh and now O2 have told me I might lose signal over 24hrs as they’re doing some works. So no mobile data for me either! I feel like I’ve jumped in a time machine and have gone back to 1990!! 😫
-
Chris 🏳️🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, EnglandCalled Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.
-
JamesLee85 (@jameslee_1985) reported from Croydon, EnglandApologies for the stream interruption last night folks- @virginmedia my ISP is dealing with a large service outage. Hopefully back up tonight!
-
Catt Hurman (@catt_hurman) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia you owe me £241.47 in compensation for 45 days without internet service since the start on my contract (22nd July) and the 3 missed engineer appointments. I will be chasing this through @Ofcom. When Will you start providing the service you’re contracted to?
-
Claire Champion (@Champion3Claire) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia An explanation of the problem and what is being done would be a good start for customer service. Right now that’s sadly lacking. I hope there will be a £ reduction in the bill for the lack of service??
-
Marta (@itsmartamoya) reported from Merton, England@virginmedia I have had replies from a bot but impossible to speak to the agent. I will put a formal complaint if I don’t hear from an agent.
-
Catt Hurman (@catt_hurman) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia Hi @virginmedia guess what? I still have no wifi. Our 8th engineer visit scheduled for today (this time rescheduled because they needed a permit for the work). Just had a text saying engineer will be here next Tuesday now. Livid does not cut it. What kind of service is this?!
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, EnglandTime to ditch @vmbusiness I think, unreliable service & weak support
-
Khaled Miah (@Khaled_Miah1) reported from Poplar, England@virginmedia very disappointed with the upgrade package in being offered by Virgin. You are offering a loyal customer to upgrade to Gig1 for £51.15 whereas new customers get it for £45 p/m. Where is the loyalty?
-
Nick Tippett (@nicktippett) reported from Croydon, England@virginmedia Pre install Refused to acknowledge any wrong, wouldn't get anyone to even attempt to look till 24th, cust. Service refused to engage as pre installs problem, so am left still with no Internet and no way to sort issues, plus having been spoke to rudely
-
A voice only (@Avoiceonly2) reported from Blackheath, England@virginmedia @massrossini1 System was restored this AM then stopped again at 4pm cannot do no work at all and customer service lines busy
-
Mr Wookie aka Cliff (@DogAteMyWookie) reported from Croydon, EnglandHey @virginmedia when are people in the CR0 postcode going to get their Internet back? It's been down since lunch? Any ETA? Need to plan if I need to go to the office tomorrow instead.
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, EnglandVirgin Media should change their name to Virgin Media Outage
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England@redheadlass1402 @virginmedia We’ve got the business service but it’s no better. They don’t seem to have any proactive monitoring or fault prevention and pretty much don’t care. They have a 3 hour service level that passed 12 hours ago, totally useless bunch of money-grabbers
