    @virginmedia They said they can’t do anything, just have to pay for 13 days of a service that hasn’t even been activated. Not the best customer service really, left @Plusnet due to them not helping (well trying to leave, seems impossible)

  • laurasidestreet LauraSideStreet (@laurasidestreet) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve check and often is comes up with no issues in my area but it’s gone from being fast to becoming slower and slower and also dropping out often, it’s very frustrating

  • gilly8049 Neil (@gilly8049) reported

    @virginmedia Well maybe you need to find a way to make it less complex... I can't believe in 2022 it takes 72 hours to fix an "accident"

  • gilly8049 Neil (@gilly8049) reported

    @virginmedia Is disconnecting customers 28 days early also a process you use? Why don't you get yourselves a process where you correct your errors in an acceptable time e.g. 3 hours not 3 days? Or does @virginmedia just not care?

  • AlunPonting Alun Ponting ♻️ (@AlunPonting) reported

    @virginmedia Please read my related tweets 2 and 3 above, following on from 1/3. In short - very much not resolved. I am beginning to think Virgin's customer service (processes / systems) seriously need to be formally reviewed... @ofcom

  • Gareth41256476 Gareth (@Gareth41256476) reported

    @virginmedia my parents signed contract with u on moving into new house in bookham. Installation date was set for3jan. been pushed back 4 times now to 17 March. They are without internet. This is beyond a joke and no customer service/ info, just poor excuses. pls can Vm help?!

  • Part_Mermaid Jess (@Part_Mermaid) reported

    @laurasidestreet @virginmedia Nope, you’re not alone, the routers are the worst. We replaced ours with a TP Link Deco M9 system and most of our problems went away immediately. We still get odd intermittent outages, but few & far between comparatively

  • keeks_ Fancy Little Keeks (@keeks_) reported

    umm @virginmedia have cancelled my service without telling me

  • SvgeHunter97 Savage hunter (@SvgeHunter97) reported

    @virginmedia It reads there's no issues but for the past three days at different points in the day it just fades in and out. It seems to be like a week every month it has a bad period especially if it rains. stays connected if I'm watching a stream service but the moment I load game it's off

  • ant_917 Ant (@ant_917) reported

    Virgin Media man giving me sass because I want to cancel. Waited three hours to speak to someone and now. SASS.

  • emmahewitt25 Emma Hewitt (@emmahewitt25) reported

    @virginmedia Iv checked that I was wondering if there’s an outage anywhere
