So @virginmedia sat an hour in help chat waiting for reply regarding my issue/query of my broadband After an hour I guess you wasn't interested in helping me out. To me shows a totally lack of respect to a loyal customer with full package 🤬 Could you provide a CS number

@JackoGaz @virginmedia It’s down over the whole city. I broke it out of sheer frustration watching that drivel and spent the third period cooking vegetables rather than continue watching. That’s how serious it was 🥬🥒🥕🥦

After calling Linksys, it was 45 mins on the phone with @virginmedia with the agent arguing with me that they can’t help with my hub if it’s in modem mode only for them to pass it on to someone else who changes a setting and asks me to reset. 30 wait for results now.

@virginmedia Not sure who we’ve been speaking to for the last day. But they’ve been the most helpful member of staff we’ve had contact with over the last five months. Has not only helped me fix the problem, answered any questions, but is taking my formal complaint further for us.

@flossybball @virginmedia @VirginMediaIE God rid of Virgin ages ago. Nothing but problems that kept reoccurring. Same for anyone else I knew who had them too. Ridiculous. Such a shame too cos UPC was flawless before they took it over.

@virginmedia There are no issues with the service. All good. The issues are when I’m more than 4 feet from the router. Less than 4ft I get 100Mbps. More than 4 ft I get 0Mbps.

@virginmedia Months upon months of failures from Virgin, it's now time to. Involve the ombudsman. I've honestly never had such a prolonged period of bad service from 1 company. It's exhausting!!
