@virginmedia Don’t have an Ethernet cables. My phone actually uses 5G if signal is weak so it was likely my data not WiFi

@virginmedia, what happened to the Travel Channel on 289? No warnings, no I go, just gone! It was my favorite channel and it's been scrapped of your network. What's going on?

@virginmedia It was a call and it wasn’t easy to hear what they were saying. Something about having detected that my internet was slow when doing online banking. It sounded very much like the “We are from BT open reach” scam so I said I would call them back.

@yorkshirerosie @virginmedia Agree. Might just be a faulty router. Unless you live in a castle there shouldn’t be a problem in the room next to the router. I’m in the garden and my router is 20m away in the front room.

@virginmedia hi, an engineer called out of the blue and claimed to be from Virgin Media working on my broadband. How can I tell if it’s not a scam? And if it’s not, how do I reach him? He gave the general customer service number

Just experienced #unethical behaviour from @virginmedia #coercing a customer, accept £20 and close a complaint or you can take it further and not accept the £20. Failure to be transparent and communicate effectively across all departments about charges #poorcustomerservice

@yorkshirerosie @virginmedia I think your issue is that you are furthest from the cabinet. Therefore everyone else is getting the capacity first. That said for that big a drop in speed late at night it means that they either reduced the capacity on the line or something further up is using a lot. It could

@virginmedia Is this some kind of joke? Just called this number and got an auto reply saying voice calls are not supported on this number. The WiFi service is awful today by the way.

@virginmedia How could it be a connection issue? It is fibre optic WiFi? Also the internet has been horrid the last couple of months just haven’t had time to call both my partner and I are front line so never off in the week

@yorkshirerosie @virginmedia Be that there are businesses on the same exchange backing up their data. I have a similar issue. Sky guarantee 70mb but I only get 65mb. I’m therefore able to cancel my contract and go to another provider. However. This would depend on who the provider is. Most providers buy

I can only imagine those responsible for exam result standardising algorithms also work for #virginmedia as our box records Peppa Pig, bbc news x6 and random other channels (we have never watched) ad infinitum- hours of calls explain it's algorithms-seriously #algorithmicjustice

@virginmedia Thank you for clarifying. I wasn't trying to be awkward but these things weren't made clear in the link you sent. The service is still not working by the way. Estimated repair has now changed for the EIGHTH time, now saying 9pm today.

@virginmedia Thanks for sending that. On the phone I did ask to speak to a manager but was told no one was available. How do I ask for my complaint to be dealt with by a senior manager? Do you have an email address you can provide?

@virginmedia I have received an email from complaints team saying they have looked into the fact my box hasn’t been delivered, and can confirm it has! How is this a solution. I’m telling you I haven’t received it and multiple people I have spoken to have confirmed this!!!

I had the WORST experience with @virginmedia today! 1h in the chat, 1h30 in the phone + 1h30 in the chat (still waiting someone to reply to me), NO SOLUTION. Stress and even worse, different information all the time. #virginbroadband #worstservice #norespectforconsumers

@virginmedia They’ve just told me they can’t fix it before January so I guess I need to find someone else to provide me with wifi. How can you think anyone can work from home in 2022 with broken wifi for a month.
