    @virginmedia John I have done all that already. And it’s not worked. I have spoken with my IT support and they confirm this is a problem with your servers. How are you proposing to sort this out for me please?? I’m paying for a service @virginmedia is not providing.

    @virginmedia In Dec, you sent an email thanking me for making changes & what I'd get from now on & it'd cost over twice as much as I was paying. I never asked for any changes & in one of the many, calls I've made, I was told that your Oomph bundle department had shut around the same time.

    @virginmedia why am I paying £45 a month for my internet to constantly be down

  • Dazc090861
    Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I did that this morning & the person said they were in complaints department..he said I needed to speak to retentions & a manager would call. He raised a complaint Ref:C160622488. Got a call this afternoon where the manager of customer services said there was nothing he could do.

    @virginmedia Both those lights should be green. Any red lights mean there is a network fault either on a cable or on the box to which the cable screws into. Now please tell me, what is so difficult to send someone out to investigate that??

    @rwilliams1947 @virginmedia It seems VM are also messing up landlines too. They now need to connect the phone cable to the Wi-Fi hub . Which means lots of trouble in my house and many other properties across the UK. And good luck with trying to discontinue their contract - they make it very difficult.

    Kerry Mordey (@KerryMordey) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    .@virginmedia we have had NO service for 2 days & our IT provider says it’s because construction workers have cut through your lines. Is this correct & if so, when do you anticipate this will be rectified please?

  • RedhillsAnnie
    Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Alleluia @virginmedia Just taken one month to have most issues resolved. Feedback: less silos in customer service so they can see all issues and be more helpful.

  • Chloe_coy_
    Chloe coy (@Chloe_coy_) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia @Chloe_Co I have checked the service status and it’s showing no faults but we have only a few minutes of connection before it goes off!

    @virginmedia But im asking what would be different to the other times where ive just wasted hours of my day for nothing to change? We have called numerous times only to be told there is no problem or to reset. No other assitance is ever offered

  • SATempest
    Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yep. Just been on hold for 1 hour 3 minutes and as soon as I got through it cut off. Sent multiple follow up WhatsApp messages and still nothing. You really need to sort out your customer service because I’ve been waiting 3 weeks just to get back into contact with someone!!!

  • carolgladwin

    @virginmedia Had real problems with the service web page.. took an age to load and then chucked me back a page! Our service is back now.

    @thewson72 @virginmedia Great when on. So much faster than anyone else. But useless service when it’s down.

  • SATempest
    Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Can I just ask why it is that you can respond within minutes on social media (where the public can see your actions) but then in private you are ignoring your customers and taking three weeks to deal with issues? If you have agents manning twitter why can’t you pick up the phone?

  • benj8min
    Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia With respect, your customer service advisors are useless. As is the technology for contacting them. As per my initial message. Last time I went through this I was booked a chat appointment by your twitter team with someone who specifically handled the complaint.

    @CompoundingISA @MartinSLewis @ao Such short sighted customer service experience. I's like dealing with Virgin Media 10 years ago. I had to tell them 2-3 times that yes, I really did want to cancel. Thankfully, I was only on hold for a few minutes.

    @trapdoor456 @virginmedia I tried, after 3 months of bullshit, it was brought into my house behind my fryer as this was and i quote ' the only place it can go' They may have sorted themselves out by now but I have heard mixed reviews so make sure to have the option to cancel

    Remind me again why I pay Virgin Media monthly for a service that works whenever it feels like it?

  • WolfofX
    Wolf of X (@WolfofX) reported

    In 2003, Stan Beaton lost his wife, Ruby, to stomach cancer. Before she passed away, she had recorded the voicemail greeting for their home telephone. It was an ordinary message to anyone else, but to Stan it became the last recording of her voice. For more than a decade, he kept that voicemail safe. He even stayed with the same phone company because he feared changing providers might erase it. Whenever he missed Ruby, he would call his own home just to hear her say, "Sorry, at the moment, Stan and Ruby are not available..." For him, those few seconds were enough to bring her close again. Then, in December 2014, a network upgrade accidentally deleted the recording. Stan was heartbroken. He later said it felt like losing his wife all over again. Believing there was nothing left to lose, he contacted Virgin Media and asked if there was any way to recover it. What followed was something no one expected. Eleven telecommunications engineers spent three days searching through backup systems for a single deleted audio file. They described it as looking for a needle in a haystack, but they refused to give up. They found it. Instead of simply returning the recording, BBC Radio Leeds arranged a surprise during an interview with Stan. As Ruby's familiar voice filled the room once again, he broke down in tears. "That's her. Wonderful. Wonderful." The company later gave Stan permanent copies of the recording on a CD so he would never have to fear losing it again. It wasn't just a recovered voicemail. It was the return of the last words he could still hear from the woman he loved, a voice that had waited silently for years until someone cared enough to bring it back.

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (@WraggyTheGamer) reported

    @virginmedia reliability has dramatically dropped recently. In the 8 years of being with them we have never had any outages at all, However, the last 3 month, it's pretty much going down every single day I think I need to look at other internet providers

    @virginmedia At £16 for a rental it shouldn’t even be a question … never mind “understanding” and “appreciating” …. Get it sorted 😡

    🛜 I’m safely back from the dentist’s 😷 (only a 6 monthly check-up and all was well) but now our internet is down and not likely to be resolved until 17:30! @virginmedia 👋 I can’t afford to use up all my mobile data chatting on social media so I’ll see you when if it’s sorted!

    @MoneySavingExp I'm in favour of more control (virgin media constantly stiffing me...), but define "inflation". You also need to factor in how the costs - for the specific business and product - are increasing. It would help if govt. didn't keep finding new ways of driving costs up, also.
