@Omi1974 @sky @virginmedia Sounds like it's a sync issue. Hopefully reset should sort it. If it's one device try connecting with wps button. Should be front of hub and there should be one on ur Q box. Press n hold the one on hub for a few sec then same for Q box.

@jasonsloan46 @virginmedia Landed up cancelling and going with Plusnet. I'm so over paying premium prices for subpar customer service & their product is so unreliable.

@virginmedia @Ofcom So surprise surprise call through to support - automated service says hub needs to be restarted AGAIN !! (8th time since Monday) but instead of the option that used to be there that allowed you to get connected to someone - now gives instructions and hangs up #badcustomerservice

@virginmedia Well good news, my V6 box lost signal as well for 5 minutes, and when it came back again, so did the broadband. The Virgin van was parked near a cabinet, so maybe that was him fixing a fault there.

@virginmedia @Ofcom Just rechecked with VPN off - absolutely no better !!! But I need the VPN because the assigned IP address is blocked on some websites and @virginmedia are telling me it’s not their problem !!! @ofcom is this the way a service provider should behave - 3hours in the phone yesterday

@virginmedia What a load of crap why did you ask in an earlier tweet then? Eh? Pure PR stunt - give that appearance that you’re concerned but I’ve called you out on it - why does that not surprise me? Perhaps @ofcom would be interested to know of this behaviour!!!

@virginmedia This is not about @ofcom stopping the compensation this is about you taking money for provision of for exapmple 350mbs service and not delivering on this !!! And then not admitting that this may be the case and continuing to charge customers!! It is unethical

@virginmedia I know you are there - you've been replying to other people here on twitter. I've been waiting two and a half hours to be answered now because I can't do anything online. Is this really considered an acceptable level of customer service?

@virginmedia @Ofcom Again nonsense the “escalation” team are the ones supposedly dealing with it .... again ANOTHER demonstration of your departments failing to take ownership of the issues and the customer being the one left with fees still being taken, a poorly functioning service and wasting time

@virginmedia According to the site, all good, but was up and down like a yo-yo up to dinner time. Seems OK now, so fingers crossed 🤞

@virginmedia Do you have ethics? Could you help me get the credit on my account refunded? I've been asking for a refund for 6 months since leaving & each time you assure me it's been sent out, but never arrives. Must be 5 times you've lied to me about my money, have you stole it?

@virginmedia Morning Virgin, have had WiFi down since 12.30pm yesterday and the online updates just change the time. Did click for the text updates but nothing has come through. Could we see if an engineer is actually onsite to fix? Thanks

@whippletom My @virginmedia has nearly doubled and I can never get to speak to anyone in customer service. Currently looking into other options so I can leave, not the service you deserve when you’ve been with a company for a long time.

@ladylauraprice @virginmedia There is no point in raising a complaint I’ve had one running since 26th June and I still can’t get my issue resolved. Appalling and Virgin are just wrapped up in procedures, no one at Virgin Media has a real care about proper customer service.

@Shame4me @whippletom I’m having that problem right now. Have gone through every channel to close my account. Out of contract for ages. Everything disconnected and now I have Sky in. Virgin Media still will not close my account.

@AndyHarrison123 @virginmedia Help desk pretty much admitted it. Said suspicious activity. No doubt me constantly changing my password. Suggested fix within 5-days. Said they would email me when done!!!! First noticed it about a week ago. Galling when you get the followup marketing text.
