@Michaelallen_99 @philell21 @virginmedia Because the stupid rules say that if there’s a disruption to your services (over a specified amount of time), you’re legally entitled to compensation, but ONLY if you contact them to notify them that you specifically are effected, if you don’t they’re not obligated

Gutted that I’ve renewed my mobile contract with @virginmedia I don’t think I’ve ever had such bad customer service before. I’m still waiting for transcripts from my chats yesterday to complain to the Ombudsman about them. I will not be renewing with them again!

@virginmedia I -think- my services are down due to maintenance in my area. I received a text from you apparently but no email or letter. Any news on how long this is?

@virginmedia Another lie I was told then! Apparently they were sending transcripts from 2 online chats yesterday and 1 from today. I’m really disappointed with Virgin, I expect better customer service from such a big company.

@virginmedia my new tv box has arrived today and I can’t use it as our area is still down. Our broadband was down yesterday. At least it’s only the tv today it’s not as if we are without power or heating like some parts of the country. Customer services were helpful

@virginmedia 6mbps download speed at the moment when ive upgraded to 350mbps... this is ridiculous, constant problems and advertising as the fasted.. and being told on your website that I need to wait 24 hours before you'll even look into booking an engineer..

@virginmedia why is your box down? Why doesn’t any of your apps load? E.g. Amazon Prime? 😑

@sahinbrum @virginmedia I agree that their compensation policy is bs, I’ve found when I’ve had any outage affect me, they patch it quickly so the service gets intermittent while they work on a full fix, that way they don’t have to compensate, even if service drops out every couple minutes. BS really

@virginmedia poor doesn’t come anywhere near the description needed for the service you provide for a long term customer who simply needs the OLD Superhub 2ac router replacing. I simply need a replacement sent quickly but must wait for an engineer on Tuesday 4th January.

@virginmedia do you have a known issue with the sports channels? They aren’t working and the phone-line cuts me out off.

@virginmedia what is happening with your broadband?! I haven’t been anle to use internet properly for a month already! It is constantly off and on, no stable connection at all. I am working from home and can’t work like this! Do something about it or let me cancel my contract

(@Ben_Cartwrigh15) reported
@virginmedia Ongoing issues with the wifi intermittent nothing connects. Called yesterday to get help, was told someone would call back. No one did. Called this morning, very little help on the phone other than booking a technician in for Wednesday. We work from home. No wifi for 6 days

@JacquiOatley @virginmedia @skytv Yep, honestly it’s a joke how they treat their customers. Be ready for them to still try charging you multiple times after the account is closed as well.

Simon Murray
(@simurray0) reported
@virginmedia still no fix on the issue of no broadband at N4. Can you provide more of an update, rather than continually just pushing back the date you hope to fix it by? How long does it need to be off before I can just cancel the contract?

@virginmedia Was Thursday or Friday but you never call me back when you say you will, so I'm not confident it will be completed unless I keep chasing it up.

@Bluesmachine100 @JimSterling @virginmedia The Wi-Fi is crap. The router is garbage. I used those plug things because in a tiny terraced house the Wi-Fi quits at the top of the stairs.

(@sjbarr500) reported
@virginmedia Yes. They gave me a virgin phone number to call. It simply tells me you're aware of an issue and to hold to talk to someone. As expected, if you hold you end up in an infinite wait for nothing 🙄

(@Bluesmachine100) reported
@JimSterling @virginmedia On the upside you won’t have to put up with their appalling WiFi. I’ve got a 1gbps line and via WiFi it’s 167-300mb. BT Openreach are upgrading their network to support 1gbps so might be worth looking into an ISP using their infrastructure.

@JimSterling @virginmedia Virgin have an abysmal customer service. I had a friend that had his Internet cut off every month because they were too stupid to accept payment from his bank account.
