@virginmedia No. I don't think it's a broadband issue but it certainly has me foxed. I feel it's an Android version issue.

@virginmedia why is your internet always dropping out in the wn3 area. 4 weeks on the bounce now. Latency and speed test are poor too.

@virginmedia Not been given anything. I called Friday regarding my bill. Left my contact details and was told within 48 hours I would get a call back. I was hoping to not have to escalate to a complaint and for it to be dealt with via the manager who was going to call me.....WITHIN 48 HOURS!

The internet is so shockingly shit at mum’s house. Can’t even watch Netflix without it buffering every 2 minutes. Please sort it out @virginmedia!

@virginmedia Not you fault I know but unfortunately for me this seems to be the default response for virgin customer service, along with passing us over to another dept! Also your sales rep, who said, “any probs give me a call” has gone AWOL!

@virginmedia your virgin media store is down, and won’t let me watch a film that I’ve paid £8 for. The most disappointing service I’ve ever received, as I held on your phone line for 40 minutes only to be told nothing can be done.

As usual shocking from @virginmedia trying to log on to my online account. Changed password and now it’s not accepting the new one or old one. They are terrible!

@Hortini @virginmedia I have had this on other media sites, my email address had been used to attempt to hack/login. Scammers failed attempts logged me out as well .

@virginmedia There are a couple of threads I've contributed to. I'll try to post the one I looked at this morning and posted the same comment I tweeted. My point is that it shouldn't be a one at a time fix.

To all my followers. DO NOT go to @virginmedia we had installed last night. Now not working. My vulnerable mum cannot get hold of me-phone not working-as they have no engineers until Tuesday. They don’t work Sunday & earliest app is Tuesday! If mum falls again god help Virgin🤬

@saoirse_22 @SamsungUK @O2 @virginmedia It appears to be a security certificate issue but I can actually access the certificate details on my phone. So, stumped but learned how to do something I didn't know I didn't know... #JoHari

@virginmedia how do I actually get through to a person and not a robot or multie choice menu? This is an issue with my broadband and the VPN I need for working at home

@virginmedia @O2 Shame your customer service is so appalling. Charging cancellation fees when people move into a property outside of your network? Wow, seems like you need to improve your network coverage to 100% of the country or you need to review your policy of trying to rob poor families!
-

(@_x864) reported
@virginmedia This 'service' is utterly, totally rubbish. I need someone to call me and talk to. Not endless, pointless texts with yes or no - A, B, C, answers. And having to explain things over and over via what seems like auto-response texts. You really are having a laugh.

@virginmedia Thanks - yes it's now showing the issue again, as it was yesterday afternoon when I reported it the first time. Then the web page reverted to showing no fault this morning, whereupon I re-reported and the page then updated again...

@virginmedia I've had them unlocked straight away previously. Its not acceptable not to have access to email without any explanation. I would have thought there would be urgency in resolving but my eyes are being opened to the level of customer service. Which is a shame after all these years

@virginmedia Yesterday but I first called last Friday. I was promised a call back with an update but this has still not happened. This is extremely poor, I do not have a direct contact with anyone to speak to so if o call back I get stuck in a constant loop. I just want someone to own this.

@virginmedia @O2 You dont quote a VM customer of 20+ years a price and deal and then say oh no you cant have it after deal is done. Look at the livechat with 'Bry' around 10am my post code is hp2 7pl and number 143
