@virginmedia your service is very poor for older people. Almost an hour and still not resolved my mum’s issues!

@virginmedia Almost like you didn't read my original message... Your stock answer STILL doesn't ring true, just repeating the phrase I quoted in my original message to me again doesn't help one little bit

Hey @virginmedia, please install fibre lines in Mow Cop (ST7) so I can get rid of PlusNet. Had to change from Virgin Broadband when we moved, and I never had a single issue. Sick of PlusNet outages now.

@virginmedia Yes absolutely, soon as we landed I got the message saying I was in Greece and could use my mobile exactly the same as in the UK. At no point did it say to check for other countries in case they stole my network! I had been on the same network all week from 26th August

@Paulout @BT @virginmedia I can’t believe how bad BT have been over this. Advisors just seem to want to keep you talking even after taking 20+ mins to get through and then do nothing for you. Proper fed up 🙁

@virginmedia Unfortunately not, I even gave two phone numbers and an email, just want to know if there is an issue local to me or if it’s a network issue, I can deal with downtime but drop outs and high latency really are frustrating, can’t really have another half a day off work...

@McGiff @virginmedia I am having exactly the same problem over roaming charges for a country I’ve not been anywhere near a, appalling service and been told tough pay or they take me to court! At my wits end!

@virginmedia It took over 50 mins to get through to receive no relevant assistance or guidance. However no problem in taking the DD of £100 every month !!

@virginmedia @virginmedia I’m glad it sorted itself out as the customer service woman said id need a new hub which she said she’d order and would arrive Tuesday (6/8/19). Which it hasn’t. I’m glad I didn’t need it #virginmedia

@virginmedia just had the misfortune to speak to the rudest person ever whilst trying to sort out my abysmal connection speed when she put the phone down on me after a 20 minute wait!!

@virginmedia I’m sick of resetting that hub it’s supposed to be 100mb fibre I had less trouble with my dial up! Do you supply boosters as you can take it out before I spend money to make up for your awful service

@virginmedia how is the admin panel so slow on the hub 3.0, it’s actually terrible and has been since release 😒 I can’t even access my DHCP settings

@virginmedia I am not stupid I get that! However, the text I received said welcome to Greece you can use your phone exactly the same as if in the uk so I had absolutely no reason to switch roaming off when I never left the resort. I have kept the texts which state exactly that

@virginmedia It was with regards to my services.. When I phoned about it the lack of professionalism was horrendous.. When I mentioned the lack of professionalism I was basically told what is your problem. Awful really

@virginmedia It’s fixed now. I assume the broadband outage was due to finishing the telephony repair. I assume there will be no further problems today?

@virginmedia Having spent hours on the phone & spoken to countless members of your team I have never been able to resolve nor doubt very much that things will be "sorted". How would you suggest I proceed?

The General
(@badgerburger) reported
Disgusting behaviour by @virginmedia try to take a DD from me when they still after 16 days haven’t sent me a SIM card. All DD’s from @virginmedia blocked including my broadband bill and a fraud maker put on my account so they can’t take money without providing a service!!!
-
Conor Wisson
(@conor_wisson) reported
@virginmedia It keeps bringing me back to do the test again after I click yes to are they’re any lights showing. I run the test says there’s an issue giving me the same thing to do over again. I’ve unplugged and I’ve made sure all connections are tight but no luck.

(@vieiravascos) reported
@virginmedia Yes, for over a month now. Been told it’s an issue in the area every time and hot-potatoed between departments on weekly calls. Tried cancelling and not allowed without paying exit fees. You can help by ending this nightmare of a service and letting me off the contract thanks!

@virginmedia (i) Stop hiring phone-based staff who can’t speak sufficient English, (ii) update AI ChatBot journeys, (iii) agree a process whereby Customer ID is validated once upfront then affirmed between staff during each handover to another dept (ie. “I have already verified the customer”)
