@virginmedia Okay. Just that Twitter asked me to sign into it and results would give you access. Thanks for clarification...just really dont understand why I have to go to a forum to get tech support for an error Virgin has made.

@virginmedia Yes, security cameras, nest heating, hue bulbs. Less frequently. But still happens. Everything works for a while then something or several things stop. Never everything. We have entirely re-set everything once, which takes hours to sort and is not an answer.

@virginmedia why sell us a package when you do not have the correct infrastructure in place! 30 minutes on hold today, I’m giving up. We didn’t have these issues with Sky.

@virginmedia There is no weak signal. I’ve checked all around the house repeatedly. There are no faults in the area. I have checked repeatedly. Customer services have been unhelpful on multiple calls. Had to fight to get an upgraded hub!

@virginmedia No I haven’t because there is no clear number for me to call in regards to the issue

@virginmedia No. It’s usually just one of the connected devices we lose at a time. Most often speakers but sometimes security cameras, sometimes hue bulbs. Never everything at once.

@virginmedia I have a technician coming on Tues to replace SuperHub but need specific technical support to restore Sent box on PC. Windows say object not found error Ox8004010F. VM techs used to help in past at level 2 or 3. Now it's impossible to get past level 1 tech support.

@virginmedia My computer guy HAS looked at your forum. We know what the problem is but it needs technical support your end to fix it. It would take the right person 2 mins but we cant get past your incredibly poor customer service to get any kind of tech support. So stressful & frustrating.

@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 Literally three years of the same inconsistency. And appalling customer service when you speak to anyone. There is nothing you have done or will do to improve this. As soon as I can get a decent speed from another local company I’ll be gone.

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 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!!

(@toffeetezza) reported
@virginmedia No, none of those are the main issue which is the box just randomly shutting down mid program and rebooting. Have missed vital parts of programs & goals in football matches, so you can see how annoying that is from what is supposed to be state of the art equipment!

(@PemJol) reported
@virginmedia Nope the issue apparently is always with my *** which the automated line tells me to restart which I do. Still no joy. Even after a factory reset, which now means not a single smart device can connect to it. Brilliant

@virginmedia @bt_uk when will full fibre be available in my area? Fed of having daily issues with our fibre provided by @virginmedia not a day goes by where we don’t have issues and then to top it off they want to charge us more for this privilege #cantwaittochange

@virginmedia And spend another 6 hours on hold??? Fantastic business model. Trap them in. Cut service and refuse to interact with them. Like it. We are trapped. Time to cancel the direct debit then I guess. Could they put you Twitter people on the phones maybe?

@virginmedia Between 12-4pm not ideal when in lockdown two young children and no Tv. Paying for a service we haven’t got!

@virginmedia Oh right, an area outage for the past 18 months. I’ve been with virgin for 10+ years it’s not an outage but an issue at my address. Can you get an engineer out like promised? I phoned and was on hold for an hour then the call ended on me.

Here we go again @virginmedia another morning on hold.... can’t wait. Can you play some more cheerful music. Spent 6 hours on hold at the weekend with ‘hold music to kill yourself by’ even tougher on a Monday! @MartinSLewis @hollywills please help lone parents getting ripped off

@virginmedia Hi, is there an update on this yet? We’ve bow been without our broadband since Thursday afternoon. Your postcode checker is still saying the service is fine, which is obviously not the case.

@virginmedia I wanted to complain about the price increase, only renewed my contract for another 18 months. Trying to contact you on the phone is nearly impossible to get through. If your services were worth the extra price increase it wouldn’t be a problem .
