@virginmedia I’ve raised 2 complaints and had £5 as a goodwill gesture which is quite frankly insulting. The ofcom regulations states £8 per day for every working day after 48 hours of no service. By my calculations I should of had £24 off my bill. Fri to tues is 48 working hrs then tues-fri

@Paul_667 @virginmedia Nope, not had that problem mate, the only problem is getting this phone line moved over, for such an easy task they do seem to be making it very VERY complicated.

@virginmedia I don’t have the number as it was withheld. But it was to our landline that no one has! Offshore from a busy call centre in India I think. Claimed to be looking after the lines and said our router had multiple errors (it has been slow recently) so sounded legit...

@virginmedia I've tried rebooting it several times, and checked the cables are all secure although noone has been home all day so they've not been touched and it was working before I left but not working when we got home at 4.30pm

@virginmedia no broadband or TV for five days. Recorded message on 150 says sorry for intermittent service. It's NO service. Can a human contact me please.

@virginmedia I’ve just been kept on hold for 40 minutes before finally speaking to a very rude and brusque operative who spent 5 minutes asking me to check the cables I’d already checked (I’m not stupid) before hanging up on me. Problem still not resolved. Appalling.

Couldn't watch Eng v NZ game yesterday on @virginmedia because the ITV picture was appalling. Just switched on for the Wales v SA game exactly the same issue. Time to switch from this very expensive flaky service. #nothappy

@virginmedia The £5 was given as a result of my complaint. I don’t know why you kept harping on about intermittent service. I had NO SERVICE WHATSOEVER FOR 1 WHOLE WEEK!! Nothing, not a bean, no tv, no internet, so please stop saying intermittent service!!

@virginmedia It’s day six without service. I have been speaking to your call centres who simply tell me what they see on their screens. These are the same messages that I’m getting via text. When I call 150 each day I get the same message saying normal service should resume by 4pm.

@virginmedia He said that the box needed replacing but didn’t have time to do it. My TV is unwatchable and your customer service is shoddy.

@virginmedia family recently got your services and are having a sound issue which looking online is a problem that’s been around a while but I can find if you ever published a resolution - sound on V6 box cuts out intermittently for a moment in Dolby Ditial Audio programs

@theTunnelBear is there an issue using your service on @virginmedia - first time using their internet and I can’t access your website and my bear won’t activate (HTTPS error is thrown rather than a direct blocking notification) think @ThreeUK are also blocking your website

@virginmedia It just came off my bill but I rang and expressed that it should have been more and they would look into it but I’ve not had a response. You’re going to fob me off with intermittent service but perhaps you should have sent someone round to check but then you’d have to pay out l!

@virginmedia Could not offer services at new address so contract cancelled-now telling me I owe £200 & will send bailiffs round-despite murmurous phone calls to get this sorted & raising an urgent complaint 6 wks ago. Have taken advice from @Ofcom and @CISASUK Utter disgrace.

Mike Rogerson (https://bhre.social/@CSR_Michael)
(@CSR_Michael) reported
@virginmedia We've discussed the package more than enough, thanks. You offered a better rate to another customer clearly in the same position as us and then rudely and repeatedly dismissed our attempts both to get a fairer offer and to cancel.
-
Phil Harvey 😷
(@CodeBeard) reported
@virginmedia It is poor customer service because you are telling me (a customer) that it’s policy and not thinking about the impact of the service disruption on customers. Not providing the service paid for (including intermittent) should be compensated for.

@virginmedia Virgin doesn't care if I am online or not - you are the service provider of internet which hardly ever works. I am usually online for 10-15 min and after that the connections is gone.

@virginmedia Hello ..my broadband is down and am unable to report fault because it keeps asking for pressing the keys from the password which I haven’t set and there is no option to chat and no email address to report fault.

@virginmedia I was promised to get Netflix as a free sign-up bonus a few months ago. Netflix was listed in my confirmation email but the email with my activation code never arrived. I've tried contacting through other methods but it's been no use, is there anything you can do?

@virginmedia Hi there, no lights(does the hub4 have lights other that the ring?; which is lit white) carried out the reset and now my Ethernet connected devices cant find the hub at all. Wifi working albeit slow using the default pass after reset.

(@jasonbushell86) reported
@virginmedia No lights, did a reboot and 1 port found the hub again. giving me a speed between 5-18mbps, a few weeks ago it was over 150 (i'm on 250 but I was ok with 150). I've tried using different Ethernet cables on different devices so i dont think it's a cable issue
