@virginmedia Internet gone again. Second time today. Bottom light goes white and starts flashing, then green and flashing. Then the arrows light up green and flash. I can’t get 24 hours out of this service. This isn’t what I pay for and it’s terrible service.

@virginmedia You could at least have an option to call back customers rather than keeping them on hold. Again, this is really poor customer service.

@virginmedia Been with Virgin for 5 days of dreadful customer service, how can a mobile set up result in loss of all subscribed tv channels, held in queue for over an hour is the norm, will be cancelling my contract due to this total mismanagement #VirginMediaSucks

@virginmedia And this is why I don’t bother calling you for the most part. The service desk where I work are in trouble if customers are on hold for 20 seconds. Virgin are a huge company and can’t afford a call centre where customers don’t have to wait 15 mins (so far) on hold.

@virginmedia this company is an absolute joke. This is like 6 engineers numerous phone calls’ complaints. Can’t get them to call us back. Paying for service that doesn’t work!

So that’s @virginmedia cancelled off and their poor effort at a service. I had more reliable service with dial-up! Now signed up with @SkyUK and hoping they can at least provide me internet that I can use for a day without it going off constantly.

Just been holding on the phone for over 30 minutes to speak to a "human being" from Virgin Media" I lost the will to live and hung up. Will call tomorrow to tell them I will be leaving sick of their poor service.

@virginmedia As per usual there’ll be no problems in the area, I’ll get told to unplug the box, then you’ll book an engineer for about 5days time, meanwhile the problem magically disappears #badservice

@virginmedia So it's not the devices. As I say it's only since this new hub. All I get when I ring customer services is run these tests etc equipment working fine but there must be some underlying problem somewhere

Just had a call from @virginmedia asking me what I use my network for, how many devices I have on the network. Please mind your own business, answers to these questions can be used by OCGs to target my home and only call me if you really have to. Thanks

@virginmedia IT says there's no issues in the area, the speed test was done wirelessly. I have the hub in the same place I have always had the modems, hubs in. This issue has been ongoing ever since I received the newest hub. All wires are in tightly so it's not that. I have a new phone too

@virginmedia Installation costs. I phoned up and was told the bill had been raised so I have to pay it. I asked to speak to a manager, but there is no one available so they’ve raised a complaint and said someone will phone me within 28 days! Payment is due 11th January 3/3

@virginmedia my wifi has been terrible for weeks now. Constantly having to use my mobile data when not near my hub. Tried contacting various times. And when I did get through. Language barrier was a problem. And my problem was never resolved. Customer service is a joke!!!

@virginmedia It is at around 8am but I’m unsure if the same issue will occur again later on this evening. What is the cause of this please?

Dave Ridgway
(@DaveRidgway2) reported
@virginmedia You tell me! I was given 3 different prices! I was unable to get anything resolved as your systems were conveniently down again. I was expecting a call at 10am today…. Nothing. As a new customer do I get a better deal??? 👀

@virginmedia Appreciate your quick response - I wish the emails were as quick instead of a week apart- can the Twitter team not deal with my issue? It just seems so much hassle!

@virginmedia Tbh it’s nothing to do with cables etc they are all good it is the service that drops totally or drops to sub 5Mb rendering viewing hard - it is what it is and I’m resigned to it being a ‘unintended consequence’ of being a VM customer - the others must be the same?

@virginmedia my Wi-Fi has now been down 24 hrs and I’m just being fobbed off with reasons!
