@williamtm @virginmedia 1&1, bt, EE, sky, zen and talk talk all support v6 afaik. The ONLY major (by number of subscribers) ISP that doesn’t is virgin. The smallest of the big 4 is talk talk and numbers 5-10 of the top 10 added together are still half the size of talk talk.

@williamtm @virginmedia So virgin media don’t support it then. that is not “nothing supports it” Yell at virgin. BT is fine, although they do need to differentiate their treatment of ipv4 vs ipv6 icmp in their default firewall rules

@virginmedia 1/2 It’s with all devices, we’ve tried everything, we’ve reset, we’ve turned everything off and on again, we’ve switched from 5ghz to 2.4ghz and back again … it’s … just … so … slow! 😫😫😫 And I don’t get why we should need to be IT experts to get a good service …

Really getting sick of @virginmedia's shocking service. Yet more dropouts. No doubt this will inspire them to post the usual useless scripted bs response.

@EE Hi Mark. In the last few months, signal has been on and off like a yoyo, with total downtime last week which made working from home difficult. @virginmedia also died too, so wasn't a great day 😅 Other half uses Voxi and had no issues with connectivity.

@virginmedia (3/3) I'm the customer, and I would like to think you would accommodate my wishes and show me some respect as one of the people who ultimately pay for your profits. I will not, however, be a customer for much longer

@virginmedia No difference. We do have an engineer booked in but just trying to understand the issue. The router page shows the Broadband reading (Access Denied) errors

@virginmedia If you really wanted me to stay and you valued me as a customer you would have respected my original request when i was first called and we wouldn't be here now Learn the lessons from this - do what customers ask show them some respect and stop bothering them with unwanted calls

@virginmedia Unreliable & intermittent Broadband, no Sky Atlantic but most importantly very poor customer service as justified by this thread - I’d rather rather speak to a person real time

@virginmedia Trouble is as I explained, it’s rented accommodation and the rental company have the login and password info and are closed all weekend. Making studying impossible 😠

@virginmedia Tbh the 5 minutes of dead air before I put the phone down on your colleague who was "just seeing what she could do" didn't help your cause much

@virginmedia Yes. They have said we will have to wait until WEDNESDAY, so we were lied to again. Shocking service!

@virginmedia (3/3) I trust that when I call to cancel and switch, the call will be straightforward with no fuss and will be less than 2 minutes with no drawn out attempts to get me to stay

@virginmedia customer support trying to tell me my 24mbps speed when I pay for 100mbps is down to the fact we have 13 devices connected - when 11 of those are either not being used or low traffic devices

@virginmedia I really want to open an account with you but you are not letting me. Just moved to Belfast and my apartment is already wired for Virgin Media. Please help!

Sat waiting for the @virginmedia web chat to connect to agent to find out how much I can reduce my bill by reducing our service and getting rid of things we don't use. Currently 40 mins and no actual agent only a Web bot. Hoping to sort it while my kids were occupied.

(@Pir00t) reported
@virginmedia Yes, they are pinning the blame on the virgin rep who placed the order saying he must have done something wrong. Stated there is nothing further they can do and to raise a complaint with virgin directly

@virginmedia No Internet for 12 days. Your web states £8.40pd comp if loss of service after 2 days. I was given £29! I complained again on 7th Aug & given another £29 allegedly, except your incompetent staff have added the £29 to my bill instead of credit. I'm sick of @virginmedia & I'm off.

@virginmedia are terrible. Wifi router has cut out and their customer service is non-existent. Running around like a headless chicken between web pages and finding nothing!

@virginmedia Hi, you won't allow me to take a reduced contract that you offer to new customers at £33 pm, so my loyalty is worthless to you I can't afford £100 pm any more I've been trying to cancel the whole contract since 10.30 this morning Another reason I want to get away
