Casey Rain (aka S-Endz) (@CaseyRain) reported from Birmingham, EnglandCausing me to drop out of a work meeting once every 10 minutes. Oh, and Virgin tried to blame it on my hardware? Except... My neighbour is seeing the EXACT same thing. This wasn't happening before the outage. @virginmedia why am I paying you lots of money for a spotty connection?

Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Another fail. I've reached out in exasperation since my chase-ups of 14th, 19th and today have been ignored. As have my 5 messages to your local rep who promised to be on hand. If you can't be bothered to help me, I'll just escalate via another route @richardbranson
-
Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia And this is why, I'll be reporting you to trading standards for fraudulent misselling/misrepresentation and then abdicating ALL responsibility/accountability to resolve. There's no security/DPA issues in you giving me a direct dial number via DM. You just don't want to resolve.
-
Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, EnglandAnd just like that my @virginmedia is off again, no internet whatsoever. Embarrassing service from them, very disappointed and frustrated.
-
Phil Queenan (@philq001) reported from Birmingham, England@Ian66232919 @virginmedia @02 have been awful and the reception is non existent, especially any where near Villa Park. May as well not take my phone out.

-
Shaun (@shauny67) reported@virginmedia @paulpresenteruk Never use ring door bell over WiFi why cos only works on 2.4ghz & Virgin like all providers combine 2.4 & 5ghz together would need to split them & set a static IP address for the ring door bell on 2.4ghz. best option is ethernet to a POE switch for data & power
-
Joel Sheppard (@joelshepp) reported@asksupportcreww @virginmedia No I'm not going to follow you or "drop a DM". I'm perfectly willing to have this conversation in the public domain to highlight how shambolic your customer service is.
-
BK (@red_bk13) reported@entrustTMF @virginmedia Terrible situation for that long. I'm looking at a voda offer at the mo for switching from virgin when my deal expires. They offer a router with 4g back up. It's weather your can get decent speeds where you are that matters.
-
Isla (@saoirseisla) reportedMy fave thing about @virginmedia is nothing. No WiFi for 4 days. No WiFi = no tv. Been fobbed off for days. Each day promising it’ll fixed by the end of the day. Only to turn around today and say only an engineer coming to the house can fix it. I want out of this contract.
-
David Richards (@DWRICHARDS) reported@virginmedia if you fail to provide a promised refund and fail to deal with a complaint is there any hope that you might engage with me here?
-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@miaKJKJ22 @Gary1165 @virginmedia Yes, agreed, it's usually well known about general outages. Annoying though when they say it's all fixed in your area and the service checker says all OK at you property when it clearly isn't 😬
-
✫ Sharon Bellamy 🦖 (@socialshazza) reportedO @vmbusiness how can it be when my order was placed in January my rescheduled install date isn't until the middle of May? I am going to be without connection for over 2 weeks .. the original plan was to have a week cross over of my service - why do i pay for business ?? (1 of 2)
-
Nicholas Rawlings (@nick_rawlings2) reported@virginmedia #virginmedia are there any issues in the Orpington area? Broadband keeps dropping out. There's nothing on your status page.
-
✫ Sharon Bellamy 🦖 (@socialshazza) reportedI chose @vmbusiness becuase I had this mess before with BT letting me down .. I work from home, how am I going to do that with no connectivity? Teather from my phone? I am an IT person .. lets see how that works out (2 of 2)

Carol-Ann Sihra (@Csihra) reported@virginmedia The worst customer service I have ever experienced. Managers can’t even get it right, how hard can it be to cancel a contract
