@virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

@virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

@virginmedia I also don’t need to monitor the quality of my broadband, I already know it’s awful. I don’t understand how that would help.

@virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

@virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

@virginmedia Oh, my bad. Apparently the wiring outside my house has a fault, someone did come last Monday to work on it,and someone was supposed to work on it for Thursday, but it keeps being pushed back (order ref 55230469).

@bazza141 @virginhelp @virginmedia Join the club. I spent over 1hr 30 mins trying to get a issue resolved . I kept getting through to their over-seas call centres . It took almost 20 call re-tries to get through to a young lady over in Newcastle 😳😞. It's rediculous that they got call centres in 17 countries.

@virginmedia Hi - Ive noticed alot of people are having the same issues. Its the Sky TV Go app on Playstation 4. Ive checked it on another internet and it works fine so it is definitely an error on your side. You need to sort the internet settings. It struggles to load “on Now” on the app.

@virginmedia So I had loss of service but not complete even tho the service I had wasn't enough to even complete a 15 minute online training. Great. Even though you only have cold water, would you still get a bath? Nah don't think you would

@virginmedia Visit was fine replaced wifi. I was never out of Internet completely like it says only your compensation page, but it was equally as bad since my step daughter had online training to do which couldn't be done at all. My children also were not able to do homework.

@virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

@virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

@virginmedia how do I actually get to talk/communicate with your customer services? Waiting for over an hour on the phone is not viable customer service. I'm happy to communicate via chat etc, but you don't give that option.

Duncan Waugh
(@waughzone) reported
@virginmedia My online account smugly says my order was delivered yesterday. Only partly true. I can’t spend another 2 hours on the phone trying to speak to a human. How do I resolve this? I can’t even cancel my contract without spending hours on the phone. Such awful customer relations.

@virginmedia had a email yesterday saying how you’ve improved my WiFi and no need to do anything.. funny that because the last 2 months it’s been absolute garbage and it’s still crap after this email! What’s happened?!?!
-
Duncan Waugh
(@waughzone) reported
@virginmedia I’ve done that. ‘Please allow 28 days to investigate’ - that’s no good to me. I have 14 days (11 now) to find out whether you can provide the service I am paying for. Is not not possible for someone to call or email instead of me shouting down a drainpipe hoping for a reply?

@virginmedia Yes already done that. We have 2 issues, 1. The incoming speed is 119mbps (paying for 500) and 2. WiFi speeds are significantly reduced. Do I need to be considering @SkyUK??
