@RichPierce0079 @virginmedia @SkyUK @VodafoneUK All different issues really. Virgin is its own thing. Sky could have been a line issue, Vodafone went live earlier today but despite saying it has an internet connection it doesn’t. Almost like they’ve not activated it on their end despite the app saying the line is active.

@virginmedia I rang support yesterday and they said an ongoing issue that could take up to a week and when I follow your link it says no known issues. #mixedmessages

@virginmedia 6pm is what you always seem to say, it’s lazy customer service and not very helpful at all to your current customers.

@virginmedia Ok great, I hope you do as thus far your customer service phone line hasn’t. The engineer hasn’t. The manager I spoke over the telephone hasn’t so you’re my last hope before I’m forced to shop elsewhere

@Danielle869 @virginmedia I agree. The service my 85 year old dad received was appalling. Moved to Sky, when @virginmedia asked how they could keep custom, our reply “ wouldn’t have if it was free”.

@virginmedia My service hasn’t been down for days, it’s concerning that you don’t know that and so hardly surprising you can’t say when it’ll be back!

@donzy77 @virginmedia You would think as loyal customers we would get better deals. Please let me know if you find a better service elsewhere.

Hi @virginmedia, I’ve moved house & your website confirmed I can have your services however when the installer came he said we need to get the local neighbours to use “cable my street” on internet. However we can’t because your website says we have it. Catch 22! Help please.

So, at the end of my @virginmedia contract, question is, stick or twist, cost is going up and I do wonder what @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam could offer as a returning customer, we shall see!

@virginmedia In the last 4 weeks I can’t get any internet if more than a 5m away from hub/extender. Shows and full signal strength. Your technical support team need to send me at least 1 more extender.

@virginmedia Still useless. Just spoke to your call centre several thousand miles away and explained none of my neighbours have Internet. Was told to check the cables. Not sure why I'm talking to a bot. Virgin media sucks

@christovjn @virginmedia I got quite lucky and bought it for ~£185 in the Black Friday sale. I keep meaning to buy another Asus router that supports AI Mesh and set that up as the signal is a bit low on the far side of the house.

(@stitges) reported
@virginmedia You won’t believe this but 19 hours have gone by and I still don’t have broadband. Oh, and the guy at the call centre who told me 110% that he would call me yesterday didn’t. I knew he wouldn’t and I told him so. Nobody ever does. Hence the terrible Trustpilot rating.
