    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @bethanymiah_ I'll save you both some time there and tell you now that you will be able to make no difference whatsoever, the hubs have always been awful and it seems they have got worse since lockdown, maybe they can catch Covid too

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I have, many many times and it always comes back to same, yet I'm down about 80mbs this morning, I've restarted my router today already because I switched my laptop on (everytime), and I can also crash my router with 1 device almost at will

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Tried already and you actually made it worse, I put up with for half a day and changed everything back to the better (although still poor and not near what I'm paying for) performance yet you still ask me to buy your tech support service lmfao

  • Emfozz
    Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Ironic you try and blame customers. It’s your service not my house or my equipment or how I’m using it.

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @JohnnyDude1983 @virginmedia The 3rd engineer to visit told me what I need to do and also told me that Virgin Media wont tell me or others what they can do or what the issue is

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @grimegran #Stayconnected the biggest mystery to all Virgin media customers at the moment is how to stay connect to the router and the broadband! Stop promoting ads when your customer service is currently unable to accepts fault reports, 8.5 weeks and counting!

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Have had this issue since I joined Virgin

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @grimegran Im Going to keep replying to all this promoted ads until my internet is fixed, 8 weeks and counting! Terrible routers too, range is embarrassing to be honest and crashes under a pretty minimal load

  • Emfozz
    Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia I’m not going to waste time in doing that, I’ve worked in telecommunications, I know how your process works, I also know you’ll try and pass the book to customers before taking blame because the tiniest speck of dust can effect my WiFi signal. So it’s fine.

  • Emfozz
    Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia shock as broadband is down again. Yet you’ll still expect full payment from everyone.

  • Erinshore11
    Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Service back after a engineer visit last night, with another coming again today. After being with Virgin for years, the Tv and internet service these past 6 months has been poor, surely I should get a reduction on my bill.

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Is actually my whole street, I can sit and watch every bodies routers resetting and I assume they are having same speed issues as me

  • 7Tazy
    Levi (@7Tazy) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @Zyqlon @virginmedia WiFi down stairs

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I dont mean to be rude but I can tell you now the option to text was not on the "contact us" page I visited on your website, but I see it's just a text option to the live chat anyway so this will be a waste of my time but texting now

  • InstantKarmaUK
    Jason Brown (@InstantKarmaUK) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia The problem is being dealt with following a text based support case. Thanks!

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @brfcsdotcom More than good enough, if you were virgin media I could have guessed at the issue and the fix

  • DanielHill21
    Daniel Hill (@DanielHill21) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia need help

  • Formally_Gill
    Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia can you not save your internet outrages for mid week ffs? I hate being a customer.

  • InstantKarmaUK
    Jason Brown (@InstantKarmaUK) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia 4 hours on a text support case for my broadband. Told I'd reached the max devices for WiFi on my superhub 3 at 10 (supports 20+), and told to request a booster using the Connect app at £3/month (which MAY resolve nothing) before the case abruptly ended. I'm FUMING!

  • UKLightCreation
    Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Done, I'm now down about 360mbs from where my speed normally is, and just checked, yep can still crash my router using my laptop without trying

    Faceless Millions. She/Her (@MooroMilitia) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks, but that's what I've been doing for nearly 14 days. Someone will message to say they'll help, but then there'll be no other contact until the next day when a message asks if I still need help. It keeps happening over and over, so I need to get it sorted now. Thanks!

  • PaulaMu14796554
    Paula Murray (@PaulaMu14796554) reported

    @virginmedia And please don’t ask me to call the number as I have phoned several times and tried the web chat but it’s impossible to get a reply. My last call was cut off after holding for 48 minutes. Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced.

  • Anniversary
    Lara (@Anniversary) reported

    @virginmedia Awful service hour long phone call to be hung up on. Loyal customer for years and you try raising my price £12 whilst offering new customers a cheaper and faster deal

  • JulesCox1959
    Julie Cox (@JulesCox1959) reported

    @MartinSLewis please can you help with advice about @virginmedia I have had the most appalling experience trying to leave and I cannot get this resolved it has caused me so much distress and I don’t know what to do now

  • colinmead69
    Colin Mead (@colinmead69) reported

    So @virginmedia called tonight to offer us a tv package, once I said our router was poor and the signal strength was weak he hung up!! Very strange....

  • veradeacon
    Vera Deacon (@veradeacon) reported

    @virginmedia Contstantly from 7am until after 4pm, your text service is awful, wait a ridiculous amount of time for a reply and get nowhere! 😡

  • TakeAimCoach
    TakeAim Ltd (@TakeAimCoach) reported

    @virginmedia Performed 2-3 times in the past month. Same issue exists. How can the hub range reduce. We had perfect coverage through the entire house with a steady 150mb signal... we then upgraded and an engineer came to balance the signal but things were immediately worse. So many complaints

  • BittermanAndy
    Andy Patrick (@BittermanAndy) reported

    @virginmedia By the way... STILL not had a reply, more than a week later. You said I'd get a prompt reply from one of your staff. You lied. You flat-out lied to me! I'm since having *even more* problems, but can I get hold of anyone in your company? Disgraceful customer service.

  • BoydDubber
    Boyd Dubber (@BoydDubber) reported

    @virginmedia Okay. So how will the forum get a manager to call me about my complaint that I have been waiting months for a callback to discuss? Please do tell me.
