@virginmedia All on screen instructions followed, waited til I finished work today to check and it still doesn't get past 25% on the "searching for channels" page... Just taken the direct debit for a service which has been broken since 2.12.21...

@virginmedia why am I having daily and sometimes multiple outages with your broadband service? Checked service status which always says everything is fine. It's so fine I need to switch off WiFi on my devices and use 4G. Thoughts welcome.

@virginmedia After speaking to yet another member who stated they couldn’t do anything about it, I said I was going to cancel so I was transferred. The guy I spoke to was for once someone I could understand, he was able to sort my issue out in 10 minutes after being on the phone for 1 hour

@virginmedia According to your Customer Service I was informed I was to get a phone call by 5pm on Wednesday. When I rang back on Thursday to complete my order for a replacement box (after being offered a V6 but would have to pay installation) I was told no later than 5pm Friday.

@virginmedia 17 days with no TV service, finally resumed today after another manual restarts at this end. Any chance of a refund of half of this month? That's pretty dire.

@virginmedia hi are you having problems in NE34? Our TV has been down since around 10.45am with error code V53. Can’t check service status online as your site appears to be unavailable.

Well since complaining on here about @virginmedia and their terrible phone calls last week I’ve had 5 calls in the last three days all trying to sell me the same upgrade. Absolutely this close (fingers mms apart) from cancelling with them completely. FFS sort it out!

@realjtk @virginmedia It’s unbelievable how awful the service is coupled with the shocking support. Has been patchy all week now with long outages and the support channels do not work? @virginmedia I want answers.

@virginmedia someone needs to call me back today! You’re company are totally useless, still billing me from the old property despite closing down the account, nobody turning up for the new installation and someone promised to call me back yesterday at 1pm! GO WITH SKY!

@virginmedia I am furious! #VirginMobile disconnected network coverage whilst overseas. How am I supposed to change to new SIM card when not present in the UK? Why SIM card pre-activated plus giving only two weeks to change from old SIM? This is breach of contract, GDPR rules!

@virginmedia why make it so hard to cancel online and force us to phone only to be on hold for ages then be passed from pillar to post? We have tried and as we can not speak to anyone who can actually help we will just go ahead and cancel the direct debit.

@virginmedia Seriously, you cancel my mobile order with zero warning or communication cos I missed a single call from your fraud team from an unknown number then try and give me the run-around when I tell you I'm cancelling the broadband order as well.......

@virginmedia I accessed before no problem, it didn't accept password so I tried to change. It says between 8-10 characters which I have done in so many different ways but always invalid.

So have @virginmedia pushed a firmware update that all the hubs and bricked them? I can see a load of complaints and mines been going on / off intermittently since Friday morning and getting very slow connection speeds overnight. Bit **** really. Probably need to get a failover

@virginmedia VERY disappointing to have no access to Wi-Fi, TV, landline service since yesterday lunchtime in my area still today despite fixing it all by 11pm last night (which in itself would have been poor-and you couldn’t even do that!). Using up my mobile date to connect to
