    @virginmedia the system is down in OX5 again. Also how are we expected to report a fault on line if it’s down. This is unacceptable 2nd time in 2days. Will the £50 compensation you offered for the 1st now be increased. It’s NYE so Plse get it sorted.

    @virginmedia the worse customer service I’ve had in a long time. An absolute racket- tv, internet, billing & customer service: all woeful - they allow themselves 28 days to respond to a query & the phone lines are inaccessible - you couldn’t make it up #avoidvirginmedia #crooks

    Hi @virginmedia are there problems with broadband/wifi in Oxford- can’t get anything to work...

    Oxford Wolf /\_/\ 🔶 (@Oxfordwolf) reported from Oxford District, England

    @virginmedia I've just received my price rise letter. Utterly extortionate! I will be calling you later to move providers. Your WiFi router is terrible as well. Perhapse my new provider will let me use the Internet more than 6ft away from the router?

  • MilesGomme
    Miles Gomme (@MilesGomme) reported from Cumnor, England

    @virginmedia I only use the hub as a router for my internal network of Dlan Wi-Fi extenders. This provides the best solution in my house. Having another Wi-Fi signal only causes more issues. Manual control is always the best solution! The Dlan routers stopped working….

  • andyamonty
    Andy Montgomery (@andyamonty) reported from Wantage, England

    @virginmedia WiFi is STILL not working... new engineer installed today following a move, and couldn’t make it work. Promised me I’d get a call, but didn’t. I phoned tech support, they promised a call in 4 hours. Guess what THEY DIDNT EITHER.

  • StuPCrook
    Stuart Crook (@StuPCrook) reported from Oxfordshire, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called them and got nowhere - it’s a simple request that should be a simple form - not an hour wait in the phone minimum. You don’t publish the number, it isn’t in the help screen and the chat function times out! #useless #poorcustomerservice

    @virginmedia tried logging on to my isa account, asking me for authentication code, request it, no txt coming thru, ring the 20 mins then told there shutting, & will ring back tomos. They Admit there’s a prob, OUT IT ON YOUR WEB THEN, don’t have thousands ringing up 💩service!

    @virginmedia was offered a wifi pod service last week due to the poor internet in my property, got the one pod and was told to call back on the 20/5/21 to order the additional 2 that are available, now on the phone to your team and getting nowhere!

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia You’ll be switching back to sky in 2 years when virgin do exactly the same, double your bill whilst offering new customers the same service at 1/4 of the price, it’s a market I genuinely do not understand.

    @virginmedia @JonStone101 Please don't act as if you don't know this is what happens @virginmedia. I was a customer for over 20 years and had to go through this charade every 18 months.

  • fredbeare
    Davie G 🇬🇧 (@fredbeare) reported

    Why is such a pain to contact @virginmedia to become a new customer, and even when you do the sales team don’t listen. Will just stick with BT not because they’re good, just because Virgin don’t listen

  • AvaniEbony666
    Rebecca Réva (@AvaniEbony666) reported

    @virginmedia sort out your services! Your boss is a lazy lying twonk that doesn't give a crap for poor quality!!! I hope other wifi providers have got better offers for me!!!!

  • seccadelikbaby
    Gizëm (@seccadelikbaby) reported

    @virginmedia Of course I already checked. The estimated fix time is now 8:06pm. That’s far too late and will completely disrupt my workday. I work from home and have already been without internet for 2 days. This situation is unbelievable and has caused me significant inconvenience!

    @virginmedia I’m getting slow speeds (1gig package) engineers have been working on the pole for a few weeks and I have a feeling it’s related.
