@virginmedia I have already called that number this morning. They told me there was no available deals. I've put a note in my diary to call back on the 16th. I'm not holding out much hope though considering the poor experience I've had today. I wanted to sort it today on my day off.

@virginmedia Sorry for my delay as I'm being treated for a heart attack I had on Valentine's day. When I tested and found v low speeds I could not connect to any internet, so I used my mobile 3g service to check for Virgin internet issues, which came back no issues in my area.

@virginmedia No. Customer Services telling her she needs to go collect a new hub from a petrol station, which will be pointless when the issue is likely to be your network,

@BluenoseBeau @virginmedia I have 100mbs supply, over 6 months max received 76.4 for one test soon back to mid 20-30 worst being 0.7 I wouldn't mind so much if it was running at Ave 75%, not when it's seems to be around 35% mark. Oh it's constantly dropping the wifi too!

@virginmedia Can you share an actual fix date for the service issue in the CV22 area....pushing it back a day at a time is really frustrating. Had no service since Thursday last week!

@virginmedia is actually the worst. Imagine paying money for WiFi which goes off multiple times a day and is slow even when it’s running well🥴

@virginmedia That’s says no known issues. So I think there’s an issue with that too. Broadband doesn’t appear on any searches it’s like it’s disappeared . There’s an engineer coming tomorrow

@virginmedia I'm an existing customer, I've been with you for coming up 2 years. The colleague I dealt with was so unhelpful and just told me to call back on the 16th. I have a back up plan anyway as I've just spoken to sky and can get a 80mb for £25. I can afford the 20mb loss for £34 saving

@virginmedia has terrible customer service. I’ve spoken to 3 people and still can’t leave #cancelation #held_hostage 😡

@VirginMobile @virginmedia proved to me that they don’t do customer service. We waited a month for a phone sent to a wrong address, & then had to collect it ourselves. We also proved the phone had a fault from the start, but now we’ve been told to claim on insurance and pay £125!

@virginmedia Usually I would swipe down with one finger and it would tell me that I’m on the delete option and I just tap delete to erase the program

@virginmedia OK thanks for that and the screen has gone away after I clicked on the sea terms link but I still have the problem of not being able to swipe to delete on individual programs within a folder as this was possible before the update

@virginmedia thanks for looking into this in great detail and I only wish that I could go back to the previous version which was fully accessible and user-friendly unlike this version of the app. They shouldn't of updated the app because it wasn't broken in the first place.

@oBLACKMAGIKo @RPG_Lumi @virginmedia Yeah I agree. Best bit is that an engineer came out to "fix" the issue. Guess what, still an issue!

@Hxzza7 Idk why everyone (my IRL's) say that BT is crap even though I think nothing is worse than Virgin Media LOL Virgin (not you, the internet) is so unreliable! Sometimes its so good but sometimes it sucks like ****

@virginmedia @BigIssue Instead of selling the big issue- why not look after your customers who Pay money to keep you afloat. An 86 year old woman was left alone no TV as engineers failed twice to turn up & then I get lied to. Shame on you

@virginmedia You might want to pick up the pace - my contract runs out in April. But seriously, you guys just don’t follow up on customer issues and have some serious problems with over-utilisation. I’m not entitled to compensation as it’s not a problem with download speed.
