@squelchuk @MingSwift @virginmedia We have a good box. That took long enough to get upgraded. I would try a superhub3… but I want a signal that gets around the house too, as well as reliability!

@virginmedia Broadband issues since May 2018. Multiple calls to customer service with no permanent fix. Last time I called I was asked the same questions repeatedly then cut off. Want a new hub that works and a bill review as it’s gone from £65 to £79 since Sept 2018!

Thanks @virginmedia for renewing my contract for 12 months and then downgrading me and I loose all my HD channels! Your service is poor and unacceptable #virginmedia

@virginmedia why can't I take advantage of the Full House Sports Bundle... So what if I'm a existing customer, you've got me by the ***** anyway with the broadband. May as well just cancel and go elsewhere

I also can’t get anyone to help resolve this as “your closed” apparently @virginmedia

And once again we are unable to use our @virginmedia wifi. When I called customer services today they took nearly 10min to answer, asked the same basic questions repeatedly and then cut me off without even starting to resolve anything! Bloody useless. Issues since May 2018.

@virginmedia Tried the chat everyday for the past 5 days and it is not working. Due to recent changes with someone at household moving out I do not need the landline anymore,and wanted to discuss my options as I do not want to pay monthly for a service I am not using

@MingSwift The TV service is great but if we can’t rely on our WiFi in a connected home, it’s not worth it. Have made a complaint. If they don’t offer an upgraded hub (which they’ve not before) and compensation/reduced bill (gone up by £14 since Sept), we’ll be gone. @virginmedia

@virginmedia Phone and TV down in B24 area, wondering if the power cut immediately before was due to work you’re doing.

I’m sick of my internet going down for half a day every week. Should get something for the inconvenience. @virginmedia

Made a complaint to @virginmedia 10 days ago via their online service with a 7 day anticipated response time and yet have heard nothing since the acknowledgement of my complaint. This basically sums up my experience over the past year of ineffective response to our issues.

@virginmedia You disabled our old address so I am now having to move my wife’s business computer and records at 10pm at night to the new address so she can work tomorrow. Your customer service agents haven’t got my name right once and you have mucked up provision of equipment at the new place

@virginmedia Shocking bad. We booked our old address to run until the 7th March and paid for a new account to start today at the house we are moving into so my disabled wife was not without internet.

@virginmedia I'm messaging for my mum - their V3 hub 2g radio is not working at all, stopped working last week. Enabling 5g has got it working on their newer devices but service is still very slow. Have tried hard reset, everything, but nothing is getting that 2g signal on

@virginmedia Repeatedly over several years. Get the same response each time. Nothing changes long term. I see from checks online that other people have the same issues so I’m now planning on leaving.

@virginmedia not pleased at all with your service. Despite three confirmation calls from you to me confirm what we needed, you have still not handled our house move correctly

@virginmedia 6 week a ago we lost all service, finally got an appt for yesterday to have cable dug up and reconnected. Engineer rang twice to check contractors had done street work - no. Assured by CS it would be done, it wasn't. Now another 2 weeks! You just don't care!

@virginmedia What would really help is a separate sales number to call and to speak with an agent straight away with no ‘system’ to navigate and who understands my disability and can help me to sign up if I want to :~}

@CapnKink @virginmedia They don’t even respond when you complain. I haven’t got the patience to keep phoning to get a temporary fix. Just gotta decide which service to switch to and they’re gone.

@virginmedia Honestly this says very little for long standing existing customers and cashing in on the pandemic #WorkFromHome situation by also instigating broadband price hikes for them is pretty poor #virginmedia #poorcustomerservice

@virginmedia We've checked the service link (doesn't show any issues) + contacted support but haven't heard back about anything specific in the area. No idea what could be wrong, but it's affecting the whole household.

@virginmedia Yes tried that and still not working. This has been a common occurrence since we have been with virgin media. It's so frustrating too as it interrupts a lot of important stuff

@virginmedia now I've just spoken to a woman who had the worst quality line ever who has asked the same questions as the other woman and has now put me on hold, not heard anything for 5 minutes

@virginmedia I didn't have a package change. I've still got the same package. My contract was for £44 a month and I've got a rolling £9 managers voucher to bring my bill down to £35. I changed address and paid the £35 fee separately

@virginmedia Experiencing serious broadband performance issue for the past 11 days. 2 phone calls, 1 complaint, 3 hours wasted on the phone and zero progress. I have all the facts I need to cancel and claim money back unless someone from @virginmedia cares enough to contact me?

@virginmedia Really poor customer service yet again. I have been passed round 5 departments, no help at all and after 2 hours waiting on the phone I have now been cut off. Please could a customer service manager call me. #CustomerService #shambles #Unacceptable
