    @virginmedia what is difficult about transferring my Internet to my new address? I have spoken to your agents umpteenth times, received confirmation that my request has been received, but still no internet service after nearly two weeks...this is really annoying.

    @virginmedia No they have not. If they had done what they’ve advised they’d done, the complaint should be linked to my account? Surely?

    @virginmedia im getting really annoyed with your mobile service as I cannot receive any automated text messages (which makes 2FA for some stuff impossible). This is an ongoing issue. Also unable to get through to 150

    @virginmedia TBH I’ve restarted the WiFi as per your tips online but the performance is really poor.

    @virginmedia I have had: -An upgrade -An engineer come and change the box outside my house -A brand new hub -New power line adapters -My connection tested on your end numerous times And yet the connection, 99 times out of 100, feels like total shit whenever I use anything intensive.

    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp I have. They were not great. I did explain that the voice options stated there was an issue. However, your email said it would have been sorted last week. You breached the 6 hour window and the 5 people I spoke to in Timbuktu didn't understand me all that well 🤦#poorservice

  • SimonLew87

    @virginmedia Yeah I’ve done that and same issues

  • SimonLew87
    S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes I have and it’s says there are no issues. It’s frustrating as I’m working from home and continues to drop or go off.

    @virginmedia I'm aware of the line you're taking to defend the 11% increase but the point is that your service is rubbish as demonstrated by the third image. We have to chuck £200 to Google to get a hub that works. I presume you're not getting an 11% pay rise this year. I know I'm not.

    My 83 year old dad is a bit senile. He signed up to @virginmedia without knowing what it was. We were aghast at the £160 monthly subscription he’ll mostly never use. We cancelled it and moved to a £30 EE one. Virgin have now sent him a termination bill for £1,500 @MoneySavingExp

  • Johnsonio

    @virginmedia wasted my time talking to your customer services. My contract is up, you’re offering me same package for £27pm online and asked customer service for a better deal and they offer me £43pm! Guess I’ll go elsewhere then

  • redphillll
    Abs (@redphillll) reported

    @virginmedia can you please advise why I have not had my complaint resolved within the 28 days? It has now been over a week since it should have been resolved. You advised that I would receive a call back this week and I haven’t. The way this has been handled is unacceptable.
