Had v patchy internet, when @virginmedia resolved it in April, they connected the wrong cable, cutting off our landline for pt calls (mobile blackspot) Numerous promises frm managers @virginmedia & “urgent service requests” since. Last engineer visited yest. Still not resolved😡

@virginmedia Not officially complained as hoped it would be resolved due to repeated reassurances I’ve had! Shouldn’t have to log a complaint for your error (verified by your engineers)! Cost of GP Partner husband (&my) time far exceeds cost of line rental we are paying for no landline!

@MrDKOz @virginmedia I asked Virgin's technician about the business package when i joined and he specifically said I wouldn't need it because their fibre service is so reliable it'd be a waste of money to go for the business package. I remember that vividly and it turned out to be terrible advice.

@virginmedia There are known issues in my area. Apparently 2 days in a row at, what i would imagine, are peak times. I seriously need to consider a new provider. This is getting beyond a joke for the money that I pay

@Phlebian @Truthisaperspe1 @virginmedia If you go to there website and type in your postcode it states if there are issues in the area. I am aware of how to report issues and how to check for them without making contact, when call always same response of the script they have in front of them. No human aspect to the cal

Within 24 hours of me ringing @virginmedia, we’re up and running with broadband (it’s also dead fast, bonus) 👏🏼 If anyone is considering @NOWTV for internet, PLEASE don’t bother. They are honestly the worst provider I’ve ever come across.

@cynthia83225666 @queenchristina_ @virginmedia Same here. Online is impossible and sends you round in a loop. Funny how "communications" companies are among the absolute worst for communications. Finally got through on the phone to a human who sorted it (the human was helpful, just getting to that point was a dreary slog. )

@virginmedia All the customer service people I've spoken to (by mobile phone) have been very nice and tried their best with tests and notes on the file etc. The work on cabling seems to be a law into itself and repeatedly tried & fails, as far as I can gather, to though that is only surmise.

COACH With NO Name
(@no_coach) reported
@virginmedia Everything..it won't help..it is a network issue. Virgin is either at capacity in my area or you are managing the network and throttling bandwidth in the area between 9am and 5pm weekdays. I will post the BQM graph to prove it.
