Made a complaint to @virginmedia 10 days ago via their online service with a 7 day anticipated response time and yet have heard nothing since the acknowledgement of my complaint. This basically sums up my experience over the past year of ineffective response to our issues.

@CapnKink @virginmedia They don’t even respond when you complain. I haven’t got the patience to keep phoning to get a temporary fix. Just gotta decide which service to switch to and they’re gone.

@SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @ScottMcGready @PWTooStrong This isn't as bad as some would make out. 10 isn't ideal, but it's not insecure either. That's not to say you can't choose an insecure 10 character password however...

@ScottMcGready @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong No, bash both :) As I said, it's a poor policy by comparison but I'd rather advise the user on how to choose a secure 10 character password than waste time preaching security to a social media staffer :)

@virginmedia What would really help is a separate sales number to call and to speak with an agent straight away with no ‘system’ to navigate and who understands my disability and can help me to sign up if I want to :~}

@virginmedia Broadband issues since May 2018. Multiple calls to customer service with no permanent fix. Last time I called I was asked the same questions repeatedly then cut off. Want a new hub that works and a bill review as it’s gone from £65 to £79 since Sept 2018!

@virginmedia I don't think much will happen given virgin's track record but on the plus side you've given lots of material for my delegates on next Saturdays Customer Service module.

@leicscyberaware @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @ScottMcGready @PWTooStrong The irony here is 3 random words can be broken in as little as 40 seconds, maximum 50 minutes. A 10 character random password, by comparison, would take 7 weeks with the same hardware.

@ScottMcGready @kinoshitajona @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong Scott, we use the term "unbreakable" in the trade to imply the credentials cannot be broken in a timeframe which realistically presents a risk to the user... it's not an OED term. Sure, if we're talking to an end-user, you either use a different term or explain the meaning

@virginmedia one good thing is I can demonstate in my customer training sessions how not to treat customers, thank you for the material Virgin Braodband

@kinoshitajona @ScottMcGready @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong Agreed, neither are secure and should never be used... however it's certainly possible to make an unbreakable MD5 password.

@leicscyberaware @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @ScottMcGready @PWTooStrong You're right, it's not good enough... but it's not insecure either. I debunked 3 random words years ago. Now *that* is poor advice.

@ScottMcGready @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong I didn't say it was perfectly fine... but it's certainly possible to pick a secure 10 character PW within those constraints. I was a VM customer for 2 decades... I can't recall ever losing sleep over this.

@virginmedia been hounded with call for 2 weeks finally answer to be offered disgusting customer service and when I ask about the offer on the Martin Lewis website told can’t have it please call me or I will be leaving and going to sky

Burntwood, England
@ScottMcGready @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong Because "secure" requires a context which neither the OP nor yourself have given. 99% of my passwords are 12 chars, A-Z, a-z, 0-9. They're not being broken in my lifetime... so to claim 10 is sufficient to justify leaving is daft.

@virginmedia Every time i get in touch you are "busier than expected", could it be that you just need to hire some more staff to actually solve problems, instead of sending us round in circles?

(@DlanodGierg) reported
@virginmedia I’ve made contact with someone in the WhatsApp team called Venus who has promised to help. So probably best to follow this through for now.

@virginmedia I received new equipment yesterday a Hub 4 and v360 bix. This quick start system Virgin have is useless. I work from home and still do not have inetrnet access. I was speaking to Zohab in customer services who was being g very helpful until virgin ended the call.

@virginmedia @virginmedia yes we do and we have a router and everything keeps shutting down. Including literally just 2mins ago. For the love can this please be just sorted once and for all?? When will this be fixed finally?

(@DlanodGierg) reported
@virginmedia Thanks. I will it’s about the 6 visit though. Engineer turns up, says he can’t fix it, promises to escalate and we never hear from them again.

@virginmedia your service status page reports that there are no issues in our area, but multiple people in our area have reported loss of internet connection. Is there any way to find out what the resolution time will be?
-
Petra Borzynski
(@petraraspel) reported
@virginmedia Of course we have spoken to the team. We get everything from restarting/resetting the router (which might fix it for a bit, or it might not) to “Fault in the area, you‘ll need to wait“ (while the status always shows everything is ok). It’s just not good enough.
