@virginmedia I have been having broadband issues for over a month. I have been on hold to the call centre for over 45 minutes now trying to get help. Is that normal waiting time?

@mcintyrejack @iRacing @virginmedia Haven’t tried a router, with all the convo with VM about this potentially being fixed soon and me not wanting to blow money on one. Plus the issue seems to come and go so I’m not sure if it would be a constant issue with a router or not.

@RogerProtzBeer @virginmedia This is totally unacceptable. When resolved ask for compensation for loss of service, inconvenience & your time. Keep records. Raise an official complaint following their process. If unhappy with their response complain to CISA, their ombudsman. Consider switching. Good luck!

@virginmedia it seems that your cancellation dept call centre is closed due to the virus, I’ve tried to cancel my account & tried to message you online but neither appear to be possible, I’m just going round in circles. I haven’t renewed my contract or take you with me. Help

So unbelievably fed up of @virginmedia broadband that constantly drops out. I pay almost £100 a month for packages that are just useless if the connection goes down. Can't work from home or teach remotely under these conditions.

@ruskin147 @PippaCrerar @virginmedia Virgin Media outage sounds like an issue with the broadband connection between Virgin and your home. The WiFi coverage within your home should be a quite separate issue? My Plusnet router didn’t give great WiFi coverage so I added TP-Link Deco mesh WiFi and have no issues now.

@virginmedia never have I received such rude customer service in my life. Your staff clearly are not trained. I've been blind transfered, laughed at, put through to a random person when trying to make a complaint! Can't wait for my contract to end to cancel! I'm still on hold!!

@virginmedia @Sam_Watson74 That’s a lie. No auto compensation kicked in before Christmas. And wifi was not working for about 5 days. Yet in your system it said it was working and that you could see I used data. Which was a lie .

@virginmedia It is sorted. Your engineer, Stuart, is a star. But if we have any major issues following this, I really will be off. And you should be upfront about the problems with the Hub 5.

@virginmedia They have booked an engineer to come to me, but idea when it is going to be at this point. Not sure why they are coming to the house when it’s clear that the issue isn’t only this house. But I guess that’s what the script says.
