@virginmedia Just to let you know, as most evenings streaming video (even low-res) is really bad again. I know the product description is "up to...", but as you linked the other day you ha "minimum guaranteed bandwidth" that should be more than enough to watch a little bit of video. Very sad

Nice to know @virginmedia are absolute animals towards old people. Not a care in the world. Just cutting off their phone line without considering the consequences & impact it could have on two elderly people. Sickening behaviour. My poor granny is so distressed.

@virginmedia No difference. From the amount of complaints I have read on the same issue I think you know what the problem is with the new box.

So we’ve waited 4 weeks for @virginmedia to install our TV and WiFi, telling us it’s been in the flat before, they get here finally and say it’s never been in the flat and we can’t have it! So they’ve left and we’re back to square one....

@virginmedia our Tivo box is showing menu and sound but no picture. Worked fine for 2 weeks in cooling off period. Also was on hold for 35 minutes today. Please provide solution. Not happy.

@virginmedia Although your Aim is not to deliver a shockingly bad customer experience it’s what your customer services team are only capable of delivering... repeatedly... can you put in a request to get me a call back or give me a postal address as this may be quicker to put In a request.

@GillianRhys @virginmedia Ha - would never go back to them. We found them totally unreliable and their customer service was beyond a joke. (But thanks. And see you tomorrow!)

@virginmedia Thanks. I don’t mean I set of guidelines. I mean an internal process flow for how complaint unsealed managed. For example I have raised a complaint. I call up, get to you offshore team, and they cannot see my complaint or put me through to anyone

@virginmedia Do not tell me you can not instruct a employee to call me, you have communication means, simple, this is to make it hard for customer as possible @BBCWatchdog @MartinSLewis

Chris Hooper
(@TophHooperton) reported
@virginmedia That’s what I was asking you really - it says there’s no issues but there are; it came back this morning but cripplingly slow (not even 1mbps) and says there are no issues. Just wondering what’s going on as it’s so intermittent.

Alex Jardine
(@Jaarders) reported
@virginmedia Unsurprisingly, 48 hours have long passed and no one has called or contacted me in anyway as promised. I’m now facing a contract at a price which is over twice the price I would have to pay for the equivalent services as a ‘new’ customer.

(@KathrynWW1) reported
@virginmedia How does one cancel a broadband contract (which I believe must be done over the phone) if your call centre is closed and the phones never answered?
-
Lisa Loudon
(@NieuwBloem) reported
@virginmedia Yes please! But not sure how much you can arrange online. I took over a transferred contract but have been overcharged since the beginning. I cannot sort this as the online bot doesn’t recognise the account and I have never managed to get through calling

(@Wandster) reported
@Jeremy74 @virginmedia Sounds like a plan. I don't mind a few issues but @virginmedia are upping my monthly charge to £45 for 100Mb broadband - no TV, no phone - just broadband. £45?!

@virginmedia All sorted now thanks. It is frustrating tho’ as it turned out to be an issue with supply but when running the tests in our equipment as advised on your website it said it was a problem with our equipment.
