@virginmedia Still on the phone. Just found out the eng that was supposed to come today to fixed the frayed cables outside was a no show. Also all my smart lights have stopped working meaning the local network (not broadband) has gone down. Finally you’ve agreed to issue a deadlock letter.

@virginmedia No issues and my box has no issues after running a test, but it still loses connection regularly.

@virginmedia We have been experiencing issues with our hub. We often lose connection and then the connection is not very strong at all when connected. This has been happening for a couple of weeks. Please advise further.

@virginmedia presenting barriers to cancelling after contract has expired! Appropriate notice provided. On hold for 40 minutes to get through told to call back! Barriers to cancelling, especially where a customer could be financially vulnerable is wrong! Great business practices

@virginmedia Take this morning for example. You could have checked on previous interactions. But because you couldn’t be bothered, I’ve had to explain again. So. Take that as another example of how poor both your customer service team are and you, individually..

@virginmedia There is also the 'human' element to this whole issue and that is I really don't want this played out in public. I will if you continue to insist or you can get a Uk based agent to ring me ( I say that with the utmost respect to your telephone agents and mean that in a no

@virginmedia why did you cancel my engineer without letting me know? Appaling customer service...cutting the phone off while I'm being told to "wait" Surely, service degradation, terrible customer service, consec days of no internet are grounds for me cancel my contract...

@kindon25 I'm sitting in my neighbour's house two doors down and wondering how my phone logged onto their wifi when I didn't know their password. When I checked the network I was still connected to my OWN home wifi @virginmedia 😮😮 two houses away!

@nonangrybiker @virginmedia Better new customer deals with EE at the moment, been with VM for 11 years and also considering leaving, they're no longer the best and are coasting on a name now and increasing prices every few months, what happened to fixed contracts?

(@MichaelErringt9) reported
@virginmedia I don't know how I can do this without explaining the whole thing, you really need to know the full issue from beginning to end, your customer service agents can only do the job their script tells them too so cannot see the chain of faults here.

@virginmedia I know other customers who have had 3 upgrades in the time we’ve had the same slow and frustrating device, where only half the functions we pay for work! We always pay our bill, I’m so frustrated. I am considering leaving when the contract runs out because nobody will support me
