    How am I supposed to book an appointment for an engineer to look at my installation. Fed up of it going down because of not getting the service I’m paying for. Nothing on your website or my virgin media only offers of trying to make more money for a crap service.

    @virginmedia Actually, problem is still there. Any help gratefully accepted!

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @Jennorocks @virginmedia On Superhub 3? It was terrible for me, sitting 5ft away from the router connecting to an iPad over 5ghz. Picture breaking up constantly etc.

  • lilybayrock Lily Bayrock (@lilybayrock) reported

    @Hung555 @virginmedia @virginmedia a fifth neighbour has just told me his flat appears to be offline, too. You’ll let five separate accounts wait five days before even investigating? What if it isn’t a quick fix Monday when you finally take a look, no guarantee we’ll be back online by day 6

  • eddypassey eddy passey (@eddypassey) reported

    @virginmedia That I need 3 WiFi pods and there is a speed fault which he can’t fix You only supply 1 pod every 7 days and it takes an hour of my life to get it sorted in your ineffective customer service phone system (use sales number for shortcut to at gets answered!)

  • lilybayrock Lily Bayrock (@lilybayrock) reported

    @virginmedia Auto message said service put on hold while investigated, but after no on-site investigation follow-up message stated new appointment not til Monday evening. Will be 5 days without broadband including 3 full work days while we all WFH. Unacceptable.

  • tj09195531 tj (@tj09195531) reported

    @virginmedia if you have an unexpected outage, how can you say with precision when this can be repaired. Thank you Alex down in Plymouth for exposing these lies from the VM call centre. However by 7.7 at 3pm is not good enough for me

  • eddypassey eddy passey (@eddypassey) reported

    @virginmedia 2 continued if I get the fastest speed possible how can your engineer go to the street cabinet and “turn the speed up”? No one has returned any of my calls. Complaint file ref G0000165585

  • Thediamon_o Thediamon_o (@Thediamon_o) reported

    @virginmedia Same problem occurring.

  • mybreakingviews Adebola - #CookingTravelTalks (@mybreakingviews) reported

    @virginmedia are a terrible terrible broadband service.

  • Hung555 Jenny (@Hung555) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia 4 flats without wifi still. All service visits over the weekend cancelled, nothing fixed and new appt given the following week. What’s going on?? Why can’t we have our original appointments? Just feels like you are kicking the bucket down the road!! #CustomerService

  • johnfreel1 jono2u (@johnfreel1) reported

    @virginmedia That it was fixed - clearly it’s not. Since been told by customer service that no one can come back out until Tuesday next week. It’s appalling service and no one seems able to resolve. What do I need to do?

  • TheBigOBowski Owen G. Bevan (@TheBigOBowski) reported

    @virginmedia The same reason I've been getting for 3 weeks somebody's failure to disconnect the previous service over and over and over again... ZERO accountability, ZERO compensation. I've been forced to go in to my office because I work from home. It's either that or lose a day's work.
