    @virginmedia why does my super hub 3 keep resetting my WiFi password. I’m having to change it through settings every other day because it keeps defaulting back to the security key, this is causing major issues

    @MeNigeStew I'm with @virginmedia suffering for decent coverage in parts of the house & despite trying a pod (which has yet to work btw) wifi extenders (which fight with the main router) & 2 engineer visits I'm still suffering. Having full TV as well not sure how broadband price breaks down

  • LawAspi
    TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, I've done all that (I'm a techy) it's why it's in modem mode and replaced with a capable router. The issue isnt the equipment it's the connection. Without the hub3 I can run upto 900Mbps download and 240mbps upload.

    SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia can someone explain that why after several issues I’ve had with you, that you think it’s ok, to hike up the bill £20 a month on a fixed fee contract?! #disgusting #poorservice #donotrecommend

  • houghtonc79
    Chris (@houghtonc79) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia So after having pissed around since mid December refusing to send me a new router due to intermittent WiFi issues with some devices losing connection. Today it has been on and off over a dozen times. Now no connection at all, no Internet and no phone service 😡

    knitswithbeer🐝🏳️‍🌈Stay Home (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, but each deadline came and went with no resolution and the notification by text didn't happen Anyway, there's no point in this conversation any more as there's nothing you can do except make the company look bad with each answer I give

    @virginmedia your Webchat is awful , got an email regarding upgrading to 360 . Directed to webchat , 35 minutes later still trying to sort out what is an easy request . Your agent takes 10 minutes between each response to answer . I’m not bothering now

    @virginmedia Broadband down since 7am this morning. With a secluded repair date of 2days from now! ‘Register of loss of service In Order to receive compensation’ impossible to locate on your app or any of your web pages? Yet a Price increase this month! Absolutely Shameful!!

  • BurnheadMax
    GlenEagle. Better society now for disabled. (@BurnheadMax) reported

    @virginmedia The fact you've taken money when you shouldn't have and then wonder why your bill wasn't paid is called 'basic business'. If you compound your error by not allowing people to sign in, chances of resolution diminish. It's not rocket science.

  • ClaireMawdesley
    Claire Mawdesley (@ClaireMawdesley) reported

    @virginmedia just had a shocking experience trying to query my package involving a house move. Do you not have any staff you can discuss things with anymore? Or is it all AI as the answers I got made no sense. So I've asked to cancel.

    Why is your support so appallingly bad? @virginmedia Been waiting for almost ½ hour to get to speak with someone on the phone and the chatbot on the app has just gone silent on me. My 360 box won't boot up, tried everything to fix it...1/2

    @virginmedia Why is my tv not working and why can’t I get through to customer service - been trying since this morning. What a terrible service!

    @virginmedia Can you not just reply on here and just explain ? There is nothing secret about this post there’s nothing to hide it’s a general question regarding the cool down period.

    I’ve just been given Netflix ( I know I’m late to getting it ) by VirginMedia. The first show I’ve started watching is Breaking Bad ( I know I’m late to watching that too ) My question is should I stick with it as I’m 3 shows in and not sure what all the fuss was about yet?
