@virginmedia The issue is I also believe it's my equipment as well. The down time I have you don't seam to log it all. I dont want a router upgrade or anything like that I just want a working router. Everytime I call there is a fault in the area.

@virginmedia No, not really as you have reliability issues in my home which I believe is part the router and part the virgin line coming into my home.

@virginmedia I would like to raise a formal complaint with the way I have been treated by your team today please. Your so called “Customer Service” is shocking and should be renamed “Customer Victimisation”. It is now my intention to cancel my contract after over 5 years loyalty

@virginmedia Internet is down in our area since Monday. I keep getting multiple emails saying it'll be fixed by 12pm tomorrow, then 4pm Wednesday 12pm Thursday, 12pm Friday and now 4pm Friday. None of your call centre staff can help us we've spent hours on hold this week.

@virginmedia Yes, as discussed many a time. Without fail occasion I phone there is a fault in my area and you will not send out a technician. This circle can not seam to be broken. This is why you have failed to get an engineer out to me for months and months.

@virginmedia Nah. You’ve got the order number just stop sending **** to me (not that it will get to me anyway). Please note I won’t be held liable if someone else chooses to use this SIM card so I’d advise you to block it here and now.

@virginmedia You need to escalate this urgently imho and come up with a solution. I’m saying this for your benefit as it’s going to cause mayhem

@virginmedia I totally agree, unfortunately this is not something you have been able to arrange for me for the last 3 months either. 👍 What's the solution?

@virginmedia my interest been down for a whole week. Call centre staff don't know what to say. An engineer has been on site every single day apparently. Can someone fix my internet. I pay £52 a month this is beyond a joke. I've used all my 4g& bought a ****** dongle just to WFH

@Virgin @virginmedia #virginmediadown #VirginMedia Imagine paying £52 a month for Internet to be down for 5 days. We work from home. I've used all my 4g, had to buy more to do my job yet when you call up they say it'll be fixed by.. and keeps being postponeded. Fix it Virgin.

Hey @virginmedia I’m pretty sure these people have a bot watching your bot and are then messaging all of your customers asking for their information. I nearly fell for it due to the speed with which they messaged. This is about to become a very big problem for you @cybergibbons

Also @virginmedia need to remind their call centre staff that customers are not idiots; the guy I was talking to had no idea why the link wasnt working so asdvised me to "Try again after 5, if its still not working call back" wonder if he managed clock out bang on 5?

@virginmedia Are you wanting me to comment in the broadband section? Can you explain the benefits of this as you won't send an engineer out if there is an issue constantly in the area and your tech team are already aware of it, plus I have the ofcom complaint aswell?

@nerdscav @the_hinchy @virginmedia Yes because a WiFi extender will fix the issue when it's the incoming line and not the hardware 😳. The routers gives a 3ping and 1GBps connection. The issue is virgin's crappy network 👍

@virginmedia You have literally sent me the same link of what I have just screen shot to you to ask me to do the same thing again of the point you have just addressed. 😡😡😡 Fix the bloody problem and get an engineer to my house!

@virginmedia I'm guessing they don't work Saturday Sunday, so that will take us from Thursday to some point Monday for a resolution? Would it be quick if I phone up, send me a case ref number or something?

@virginmedia New package as my dela is ending. Spent 50 mins on hold just now and then cut off !! Terrible service. Can't speak to a person

(@GarethECoates) reported
She did offer to arrange a callback from her manager, but then explained this would take 5 working days which, given that I originally placed the upgrade order with @virginmedia via their website on 08/06 strikes me as spectacularly poor service. (3/END)

@virginmedia Hi, John, is it possible to find out if anyone rang me just before that call was made? I'm wondering if I've responded to something I shouldn't have? I'm normally very careful about unsolicited calls and, usually, hang up, but I'm only human & we all make mistakes! It was April.

@virginmedia It's not much use. It has been due to be resolved @ 1806 for the last few days. Its now pushed out to 0825 on Tuesday 14th with no real updates!!! Poor customer service yet again from VM

(@prfrankowski) reported
@virginmedia It did not. And I was not and am not going to wait over an hour. I only got through to a real person (unsure if that was true) once on the chat. That person told me a code would be sent to me by mail. It never happened.

(@prfrankowski) reported
@virginmedia I never got through on the telephone. I went over the idiotic AI routine on the chat maybe 40 times now. The adviser told me on the chat four weeks ago that I would be sent a “code” which would enable me to finally cancel your service. IT NEVER ARRIVED. Got it now?

(@DavidColeman33) reported
Moving to new premises due to economic downturn. Virgin can't provide service to new premises. Unlike @BTBusiness & @SkyUK, @vmbusiness will charge a cancellation fee higher than the cost of paying for the service until the contract ends even though we won't be there! Wickedness!
