@WalnutTalking Moved to Virgin Media from TalkTalk last month. Best thing I did. Quite honestly the worst company I have ever dealt with.

@virginmedia internet down again, youd think I'd be used to this by now 🤣 always an excuse and never get anything back for the lack of usage. I'm barely in the house using it so dread to think how many times it goes down when I'm not in potentially using it 🤙

@virginmedia obviously massive problems!! All services down for 2 days, now reinstalled but they've deleted my Sent box on their server so I can't email documents, badly affects work and no technical support. They just cut out and hang up!!!

@virginmedia Yes and all it did was tell me that our kitchen is a WiFi dead zone... The main issue is that we have loads of devices and I think we are overloading our hub’s capabilities.

@virginmedia Hi, thanks for getting back to me. All my VM services were down in past 48 hours. Now restored. BUT you seem to have deleted my Sent Box from Virgin email Server. I had 2 sent boxes, but the one deleted is the major one synced to my Windows 10 so can't send imp work documents!!

@SkyHelpTeam @virginmedia So 5 hours later and the rearranging of my house move has produced a "mismatch" on ur system meaning I have to wait 24hrs to ring u again and start over. What a terrible service!

Looool. Virgin Media down again. Go to put our postcode in to see if service is affected in Redditch & apparently it's not a valid postcode. At least for a week every night the internet has gone down for about 20 minutes. Not the end of the world of course but a tad frustrating.

@virginmedia Could you also tell me why I cannot stream recorded programs when I’m away from home as I am required to be on the same Wi-Fi network which kind of defeats the object

@virginmedia Shocking customer service signed up a few weeks ago for fibre given an installation date called the day before to ask me when I would like to book the install then telling me they have a problem on the site and will get in touch in 7 days.

(@mediasubway) reported
@virginmedia @markrowan6260 Brilliant. That's classic Tech support for you: Have you tried switching it off then on again? Step 2: Are you sure you've plugged it in? If their internet is anything like their space program, it'll kinda sorta get you there, but in reality not really.

@virginmedia the problem is I have been with virgin for nearly 3years after leaving sky, your “Super Fast Fiber Optic Broadband” really attracted me, but found out I couldn’t have it without the full tv package!!

@virginmedia fed up with your internet! Nearly every night I’m having issues now! Wi-Fi strong but no internet? Try to run test and get “oops this isn’t the page you wanted” only get this when no internet (using mobile data to run test)!!
