@ruskin147 @PippaCrerar @virginmedia Virgin Media outage sounds like an issue with the broadband connection between Virgin and your home. The WiFi coverage within your home should be a quite separate issue? My Plusnet router didn’t give great WiFi coverage so I added TP-Link Deco mesh WiFi and have no issues now.

@virginmedia My broadband fluctuates, but even when I’m getting above 200mbps WiFi , my Ethernet to the back of the house is 5-10mbps. I’ve done all your tests, but read lots of comments that this is due to the virgin hub. Can you find a solution so I can work from home please!

@virginmedia I have been having broadband issues for over a month. I have been on hold to the call centre for over 45 minutes now trying to get help. Is that normal waiting time?

@virginmedia hi just making sure your tech department would never phone up and not ask for the Bill payer first?? Or you don’t have a 01253 code call place?? Mother in law had 5 calls Saturday!!

@virginmedia On your website the only way to verify if those details are correct is by “contacting our Customer Care team”, which is hours of waiting and often only to get cut off before I talk to someone. You guys are literally unbelievable.

@virginmedia great service from your sales team over the phone as your website crashed when ordering. But needed to talk to CS to get them to cancel the order that was partially done before website crashed. But accordingly CS they can’t see it. Ant it would take them 7 days 1/2

@virginmedia You’re call centre is not helpful. I’ve spent 2.5 weeks trying to contact you. I am not cancelling the contract - you are- it’s not my fault you don’t provide my new house but you expect me ti@oay £300+ To cancel a contract that I want to keep- you r cancelling. Not me.

@virginmedia Internet down again in NN5. There is no issue with the equipment or set up. What is the issue locally? Goes down about 8-10 times for 30 mins or so every day. Please can you respond ASAP.

@virginmedia Rather than an apology, how about a warning text or email stating when my broadband will be down or interrupted? So I can plan ahead, not waste mine and others time and money, and feel like I’m a customer and not a complete idiot for paying for this? I’m finally back online.

@virginmedia Yes I did, just this morning. The system diagnosed a fault and asked me to reset my router. I did and it started working again (as it always does tbh) and has since gone down again. I would like to know how to book an Engineer to call please ASAP! Thanks

@virginmedia That is a joke - as I want to take @virginmedia with me - so are you saying I should be choosing a house based on virgin media’s’ service ??? it’s not my fault you don’t service the area.... why am I being penalised ? You are breaking the contract by not providing the service.

@virginmedia chat service is down, no one to answer technical calls, a website that sends you round and round in circles! Is it at all possible that someone is still working who can solve my broadband issues before I cancel my direct debit?

Paula
(@paulalouise71) reported
@virginmedia Yes - several times. Issues caused when I moved house in Jan & got new equipment which meant new account number. Old account charged £187.40 for early disconnection - when it wasn’t - and no discount applies at new address so £43.50 pm overcharged.

@virginmedia No there are no credits despite being told on phone on Friday I had been given credits. The discount I was given when I changed package has never been applied and no-one at Virgin Media seem capable of owning this and fixing it for me

(@MattyBrennan) reported
@virginmedia Nope. It’s an account error. The person that did the move at VM was new and didn’t haven’t a clue what they were doing. Box worked fine at the new house until the account changed. Nobody seems to want to try to resolve this. It’s not a software issue. It’s a human error issue.

2 (or 3?) weeks into staying with @virginmedia and my speed hasn't went up. If anything, it has gotten worse and the website is useless or doesn't work. Sigh.
