@vmbusinesshelp I am having problems with the virgin media business router that gets up to 350mbps. Keeps dropping out. Not a speed problem it’s the stability of it.

Oh no! @virginmedia broadband is slow in our area at the moment (BH6). It’s supposed to be 100Mbps but it’s currently 29Mbps. I think there’s maintenance happening on our road right now but can’t see cos it’s behind a tree. Ah well. Looks like I’m gonna have to do some housework!

@virginmedia - twice I have been cut off when calling you this morning. Third time referred to complete a form on your website. Form doesn’t exist and wants me to hold for 45 mins for Live Chat! Not a great service!

@virginmedia Nope, dreadful. That’s not customer service, that’s off loading to a computer. Not helpful for a 87 year old.

@virginmedia this is an absolute joke now, I do not have time to just sit on hold all day. You clearly make it impossible for people to cancel their contracts on purpose

@virginmedia can you please explain why it is impossible to cancel a contract with you. Can get through for anything else but when you want to cancel you are put on hold for hours

@virginmedia It looks like the virgin services are not synced. The phone app says there are problems, you click on service and it says there are no issues, you call the service line and it tells you No issues, (it hangs up on you - bad CE) then you speak to someone and there is an issue...

@virginmedia It’s ok on LAN. 2.4Ghz band has always been awful around here, never goes over 100mbps. 5Ghz band was always a solid 200-210mbps until last year. Since then it’s been extremely unreliable despite channel changes. I do have a V3 though, which is the worst router you’ve made.

@virginmedia So I called back again. Spoke to one of your colleagues who said she would get this sorted and would apply a credit to my bill to cover some charges that weren’t explained at the time of charging my contact due to the issues of applying the correct issue. 3/

@virginmedia I was meant to have an installation yesterday between 1pm and 6pm. The engineer never turned up. I then spoke to some one on a chat and the said some one would be with me today between 9am and 1pm no one showed up.

(@WMRobson1492) reported
@virginmedia So this months bill also shows part payment charges which is confusing considering the credits should have covered this! Then the rolling credit of £10 is also missing from this months bill. The complaint was raised online via the complaint form on the 7th of Jan. 7/

@virginmedia And that's on top of the 2 weeks it's already been since I placed the order. After several years with sky, I've ready spent far longer on the phone, experienced several very poorly trained call center workers and had far more problems with virgin media and I'm not even connected.

(@WMRobson1492) reported
@virginmedia Turns out they were just changing my direct debit and not actually adding any credits. So every bill after December were showing part payment issues and subsequent part payment charges, how can I pay pay when I pay via direct debit. So my bills were easing every month. 5/

@virginmedia Thanks, we will do ours when we can. Is a shame you're not using a collection courier or one with more collection points, poor planning by your service team. Have just tried the text number, is just a bot and not that useful.
