Dear @virginmedia yet again your super duper box is dropping the sound. Getting sick of it. Your help line is next to useless #sortitout

@virginmedia I hope my account reflects that I have the tivio box as I had a total nightmare trying to explain this to customer care

Sadly it doesn't just happen with Virgin Media but with most service providers (a misnomer if ever there was one).

@virginmedia Netflix freezes, loses signal and then just hangs. Only way round it is to turn box off. This is a very common problem that VM seem to choose to ignore

@virginmedia has to have the worst hold music for a service line on the planet. And, as a #VirginMedia customer you get to listen to it every couple of weeks. One of the pluses of being a Virgin customer!

Can you please listen to what people are saying @virginmedia and ask if they have the right equipment for upgrades etc. I have the TV 500 but you put me down as having the V6.

@virginmedia never use #virginmedia constantly shafting us for money for things we haven’t agreed to. 4 months in a row, 4 different things. Now denying conversations happened and won’t recall recorded calls. Disgusting for a 15yr customer.

@virginmedia known outage issue was meant to be resolved by 9:15 am, is still not rectified. Now pushed to 2:15pm. Not acceptable at all

@virginmedia No - they always just ask you to do all the things we’ve already done a hundred times then say it’s not a problem with them.

@virginmedia 2/2 you be able to supply a service at a later date.

@virginmedia @Ofcom A shame indeed. This has been pretty appalling. Starting with a glitch over (IMHO) unfair charges, poor CS has led to me ending my time with you.

@virginmedia This isn't currently affecting me, although I am a customer. I saw a friend caught by your clause. I think if you cannot supply a service when a customer moves home, you should not be charging the customer. By so doing it's highly unlikely the customer will return should 1/2

@virginmedia Day 3 without broadband now :( All the service status links provided are unavailable as well. The promise yesterday of it being up and running by 5pm is long overdue... so frustrating and none of the service links provided work anymore either to check progress!

@virginmedia what has been going on with your broadband in SM2 over the last few weeks? (About 7 to 8mbs). Today it's down again. I would like some money back without going through your awful call centre. And for anyone else, who is a good replacement that won't cost a fortune?

@simonnread @virginmedia A colleague of mine in Bracknell has just said her Virgin media broadband is down too.

@virginmedia I do cad drawings and am unable to access the servers anymore. IT have mapped them which i am then able to work on but then am having problems when xrefs are remapped. They want to know if there is some sort of software protection solution is breaking the DNS resolution.

(@Tesshan8211) reported
@virginmedia works being carried out on the line today. SMS about it sent yesterday. I work from home and I cannot even use Giffgaff as a hotspot. Working on the line there as well. No notice. You own both companies and this is ridiculous after the 48h+ outage from last week.

@virginmedia Is there anything enabled on my line that might be some sort of DNS protection of forcing my devices to use a particular DNS service? If there are then can this be disabled so that they can test again from the network?

@virginmedia I’ve not been able to find where to talk to someone about this order/missing delivery. Rather than sending the link to your help page can you pls direct me on how I can find out what is happening with this order.

Busy morning…, @Taxiapp_UK_ (new app because Freenow let us down) turns out to have been designed by an idiot, @virginmedia broadband is not working for the second time in four days, and we’re told its because we are old, and not up for new technology? Rubbish; needless stress

My ongoing #broadband problems with @virginmedia are continuing, with the service so inconsistent now it's virtually useless. Are there any broadband providers that can guarantee continuity of service?

@Alanol1 @simonnread @virginmedia like, I said, not a recommendation. TBH I find it astonishing service from these companies can STILL be so poor. We have huge mobile blackspots in towns. Shops can't use credit card verification. I can't get so much as a 2g signal in my kitchen 😳 Better service in darkest Peru!
