Dreadful service from @virginmedia. Internet & TV problems for almost a week now. Completely fed up with being asked to unplug, plug back in again & run the set up process. It doesn’t work! They’re happy to take £70 pm for a poor service but reluctant to send an engineer.

@virginmedia I’ve run all the tests & it’s telling me the ethernet cable is unplugged. I’ve never had an Ethernet cable! I can watch tv & record but can’t access on demand or catch up services. It stopped working at 5.59am 27/2. Please send help! Like a real person. I’m getting fed up now...

Had virgin media a month or so but the WiFi signal is awful, even worse than when I only had a standard broadband connection. #virginmedia #wifi

@virginmedia not gonna lie. Second night in a row that the router keeps rebooting and the internet keeps cutting out. I can live with that......tomorrow when I have a new cohort of learners to enrol if it’s not working, that’s gonna cause me a huge amount of stress

@O2 @rwfc236 @virginmedia Tbf, though. I’m a new customer and was trying to get pods and you’re out of stock.

@MaFt @bt_uk @virginmedia Yep, and if you get too far from the router you go onto 2.4ghz , turn on a microwave in the middle and * pooof * broken wifi I just fail to see the point in using factually incorrect terms to advertise to the already confused.

(@deervalleyh) reported
@virginmedia Yes we’ve done all that. An engineer is coming out AGAIN tomorrow but I will not be able to work until then which is not acceptable and causes me stress. We will be switching provider if we cannot have a reliable service from Virgin.

(@BurgessCharlene) reported
@O2 & @virginmedia might be worth noting that to have 2 different options is confusing and probably best to say yes or no. Just customer feedback.

@amymayforrester Moved into a new flat and bought a virgin media box with those fancy extra channels on it. 1 year later the contract is up for renewal and I decide to cancel the fancy channels because they didn't seem much better than free view anyway! Turns out I never plugged in the box.

@virginmedia I raised a complaint and the outcome was Virgin didn’t give a stuff and refused to explain why they wouldn’t honour a deal made. So everyone watch out because @virginmedia don’t always give you what they say they will and don’t care that they’ve lied

@O2 @virginmedia I think you misunderstand. I was called last year by you and persuaded to change my package and move to O2. The price I am paying is MORE than the volt without any of the benefits. This is unacceptable and I will leave Virgin as soon as possible after 34 years as a cable customer
