    @virginmedia I have no internet connection WA11, checked area status (through mobile data 😏 thankfully can rely on 3 mobile) which reports no issues. Well there is...as per usual. Please help

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Wigan, England

    @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.

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    So. I've now had 3 @virginmedia techies in 2 days tell me they've resolved my issue. That remains to be seen. It in no way excuses the engineer no-show 🤬🤬🤬

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia TBF, I have been trying to get to the solution for over a week. I have other things to do you know...🤨

    went on @virginmedia live chat at 2pm because my broadband was down - engineer arrived at 5pm and all fixed by half past! five stars from me!

    It’s so frustrating when the internet is down for about the 500th time 😬 #virginmedia

    John Eastham (@bigjeast) reported from Wigan, England

    @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 ABSOLUTLY ******* disgusting customer services. Just tell blatant lies and after a hr, when i try and cancel, I just happen to be disconnected. @richardbranson you're a joke and your companies rip off the British people you ******* Tory arse licking ****. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @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.

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia The issue has been constant for 2 weeks. Option 2 at the second press is when calling about an account different to the one I'm calling from.

  • coachdancad
    Dan Cad (@coachdancad) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No reported issues. Used the guide before - it’s why I moved the router. Poor signal is because I moved the PS4 5ft across the room. But it’s less than 5m away from the router in a straight line - obscured only by the floor and the tv is sits next to.

    Dan the Man 🏳️‍🌈 (@pendo86) reported from Rainhill, England

    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!

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @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

  • Knitswithbeer
    knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia And the problem yet again wasn't solved over the phone. Wouldn't admit who cancelled or why. Did admit could identify 'frequency issues' Company full of ignorant eejits

    @virginmedia I mean I have no choice but to phone AGAIN - I am just disgusted that this is the level of ‘service’ that Virgin provides... sub standard internet and sub standard customer service...

  • AidenBullivant

    @virginmedia My internet is absolutely poor, enough money is being paid each month! Why can’t you just give us good internet?

    @virginmedia Been through all this yesterday . There are no service issues , you were supposed to webchat today at 10

  • PaulSmithLDN
    Paul Smith (@PaulSmithLDN) reported

    @virginmedia A welcome message back and then “nothing”. Just an awful service all round. I appreciate the times we’re living in but this is just basic stuff. How can it be so difficult to cancel a service. Why am I unable to do this online but you offer a text service. This is like the 1990s

  • STR11KER
    STRIIKER (@STR11KER) reported

    @virginmedia And then sent an email to cancel no reply, you have now taken full payment and still not cancelled. Why? She will want a £41 refund, rubbish

  • Rossi2k
    Ross Wilcox (@Rossi2k) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Also found out that it seems the last engineer closed the ticket before the issue was resolved

  • FingolfinA
    Fingolfin_aoc (@FingolfinA) reported

    @virginmedia I mean yes - but this would be the third time I would have been on the phone to you to have 0 resolution and I have stated this in multiple phone conversations, emails and tweets and the issues have still not been resolved - your service has remained unashamedly sub-standard
