@virginmedia Yes, security cameras, nest heating, hue bulbs. Less frequently. But still happens. Everything works for a while then something or several things stop. Never everything. We have entirely re-set everything once, which takes hours to sort and is not an answer.

@virginmedia Why do you have to continually restart the phone to get rid of the red icon on The phone app icon even when you’ve deleted the voicemail It seems this is a major problem with you I would appreciate you resolving it all as otherwise the phone is not fit for purpose

@virginmedia Hi, thanks for getting back to me. All my VM services were down in past 48 hours. Now restored. BUT you seem to have deleted my Sent Box from Virgin email Server. I had 2 sent boxes, but the one deleted is the major one synced to my Windows 10 so can't send imp work documents!!

@virginmedia why sell us a package when you do not have the correct infrastructure in place! 30 minutes on hold today, I’m giving up. We didn’t have these issues with Sky.

@SkyHelpTeam @virginmedia So 5 hours later and the rearranging of my house move has produced a "mismatch" on ur system meaning I have to wait 24hrs to ring u again and start over. What a terrible service!

@virginmedia My computer guy HAS looked at your forum. We know what the problem is but it needs technical support your end to fix it. It would take the right person 2 mins but we cant get past your incredibly poor customer service to get any kind of tech support. So stressful & frustrating.

@virginmedia Literally three years of the same inconsistency. And appalling customer service when you speak to anyone. There is nothing you have done or will do to improve this. As soon as I can get a decent speed from another local company I’ll be gone.

@virginmedia I have a technician coming on Tues to replace SuperHub but need specific technical support to restore Sent box on PC. Windows say object not found error Ox8004010F. VM techs used to help in past at level 2 or 3. Now it's impossible to get past level 1 tech support.

@virginmedia Could you also tell me why I cannot stream recorded programs when I’m away from home as I am required to be on the same Wi-Fi network which kind of defeats the object

@virginmedia There is no weak signal. I’ve checked all around the house repeatedly. There are no faults in the area. I have checked repeatedly. Customer services have been unhelpful on multiple calls. Had to fight to get an upgraded hub!

@virginmedia c130 issue is the name of my life. No network issues in my area, restart the box, every week anything longer than an hour on Netflix is unwatchable 😫

@virginmedia No. It’s usually just one of the connected devices we lose at a time. Most often speakers but sometimes security cameras, sometimes hue bulbs. Never everything at once.

@virginmedia Okay. Just that Twitter asked me to sign into it and results would give you access. Thanks for clarification...just really dont understand why I have to go to a forum to get tech support for an error Virgin has made.

@virginmedia Is there any Internet connectivity issues in the TN8 Edenbridge area? The Internet has gone down here and is not reconnecting after a router reboot.

(@mattieallen289) reported
Internet down with @virginmedia twice in a week - but we're locked into them because they're the only superfast providers in our area. Awful.

My experience with @virginmedia : out of contract = daily nuisance sales calls trying to get you to upgrade & spend more money, then when trying to cancel they fight you to stay (won't take no), after managing to cancel + trying to get a refund they want to keep it (as credit!)

@virginmedia As I've just put in all these messages i need to speak to someone. The trouble shooting has been done about 10 times with virgin and about 30 times myself. There must be someone I can speak to someone who understands why I cannot longer speak to the faults team. I've just spoken

@virginmedia - These guys who owe me a refund, keep trying to get out of giving it back, they try to keep your money, keep you on hold on chat for 24hrs, and try to disconnect you because they're too busy to help. Unethical company, AVOID!!!! Just give me my money that you owe!

@virginmedia Also I spent TWO HOURS yesterday going through alll this and your guy mucked it up. Is there a way I can just cancel online so that I don't need to deal with you again, not sure after all this I want to get trapped in a new contract

(@PressExpose) reported
@JohnLilwall2 @virginmedia I filed a formal complaint to ask them to stop contacting me, but they still continued to do it. You have a couple of options, block their number (but they will find other ways), or sign up to commit to another package with them at a higher price and long-term commitment.
