  • matthew_poole30 Pessimistic Palace Fan (@matthew_poole30) reported from Balderton, England

    @virginmedia sort it out lads, about to go into national lockdown and have to work from home and your service has gone down. ******* class that

  • SkyAlicry AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Oh look no internet again. Thanks @virginmedia Someone recommend a new service provider please because I’ve truly had enough :(

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Because I wouldn't connect a laptop to an unknown (to me) website, through the router, where the could alledgely monitor connection speeds. When your engineer visited he had to escalate the issue to your network team. Because I had 1 downstream & 1 upstream not the 24 down and 4.

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia This was 14 days ago (17/09/2020), and I cannot remember the website, and the network engineer advised (19/09/202) me it might 24 hours before it settled .... Since then it's been variable ....

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I have been offered the opportunity to complain, but as a customer of 20+ years I am aware complaints tend to get ignored. At its worst speed was down to 0.5Mega bits per second ... At its best (for 20 minutes or so) maybe 150Mega bits per second. Paying for 200Mbps .....

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Your web app says there is no problem, but your telephone diagnostic services says there is? Which is correct?

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia @dev101 Your on-call Network support, who had to wait 18 hours to be sent the ticket, and then he had to endure 4 hours on the phone to India. 2 other households in area also affected. Offer of compensation £0 (issue occurred 15:30 17/9, finally rectified 18:30 19/9).

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Er no, if you had read the thread in its entirety, you will see that I said I was getting someone to look at how to organise the internal network on the house, and I would be leaving at the end of my contract, in 17 months. I would not recommend Virgins services to anyone.

  • SkyAlicry AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I’ve given up. You’ve failed yet again to provide what I we needed. I’m not surprised. Virgin Media is fast becoming synonymous with this lack of service. I do NOT recommend you to friends and family.

  • JonLPage Jon Page (@JonLPage) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Hello! Do you have any update on the intermittency issues in LN5?

  • SkyAlicry AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I gave in and decided to call. 30 minutes listening to the worst quality music ever! And counting... :’( @virginmedia sucks *****

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia My Daught is having significant problems with her IPAD as result, and using her phones data (no we are not Virgin phones), which is costing her, when your network falters, I then switch to my NHS phone and use its data, and my simply uses her work phone ...both essential workers.

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Second day running, get to 4pm and the internet crashes ... Unfortunately I do not have the luxury to stop work and try to fix it

  • SkyAlicry AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia After an hour and ten minutes of appalling noise the woman who put us back on hold disconnected us. Five minutes into the new call and all we want to do now is cancel the contract that you’ve failed to provide.

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Also perhap if you read the full thread, it would help.

  • SkyAlicry AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia It’s intermittent. Not off often enough to be called no service or you’d have to pay us back for the lack of service but not on long enough to be much use.

  • ImpAngel1 Imp & Angel (@ImpAngel1) reported from North Hykeham, England

    Extremely frustrated and disappointed at the very poor service we're receiving from @vmbusiness as we bring five new phone contracts over from EE. No reply to emails, no returned tel calls. #unacceptable

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I do really get fed up with VirginMedias poor service and platitudes. The speed on my internet connection is down less than 56kb, but your Helpdesk technicians consider this to be a problem

  • SkyAlicry AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia I didn’t know I could use the forums to terminate my contract.

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I do get fed up with @virginmedia platitudes and inability to solve why I have poor connections speed, down to 28kbs at the moment, but your Helpdesk, after I waited 45 minutes, do not consider this to be a problem. Try downloading a 100Mb spreadsheet at that speed.

  • suzique1971 Suzanne Norris (@suzique1971) reported

    @KibbyDan @virginmedia Hi - it is working (sort of). I went into the app on the virgin box and managed to activate that way. However the app only worked once so now have to resolve that issue. It will work on smart TV app.

  • supacd Suz (@supacd) reported

    @virginmedia So an hour later still no response as to what VM will do to restore my service. Pretty disgusted and looking at other comments this poor service is the norm. Not asking for much just restoration of the service I pay for and proper help when it fails

  • joe_mallabone Joe Mallabone (@joe_mallabone) reported

    @virginmedia found something worse than your broadbands reliability!! Your customer service! Over 10 hours to cancel a contract- 16x faster than bt and sky!

  • TheeFariha Farimomo (@TheeFariha) reported

    @virginmedia can you block this number: 01612417932. Dodgy person called at 7.50am claiming to be from virgin media saying problems with my router.

  • YazMuldoon Yan Muldoon (@YazMuldoon) reported

    more shocking service from @virginmedia . they never let you know its gonna be off on on all month

  • phil70uk Philip (@phil70uk) reported

    @DontcallmeCyril @Emma_A_Webb @virginmedia Awww, you seem to have forgotten that life has changed to a much more online connected world. People work from home and a lot of business tend to push online customer service, rather than phone.

  • dmckatana David Caulfield He/Him 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@dmckatana) reported

    Hi @virginmedia I recently upgraded to your 360 service and its bad. My main box randomly "updated" at the weekend and deleted all the programs that I had saved. Not that it was playing any of them. Error messages all the time. What is wrong with the service? #virginmedia

  • TsakasMixalis Tsakas Mixalis (@TsakasMixalis) reported

    @virginmedia I am having ~10% Packet loss since yesterday morning in WD18. C. Support said, it is going to be fixed in 24 hours as there are engineers working on it.But we are now 48 hours in. Can i get a proper update on the issue?

  • pcrossy65 peter cross (@pcrossy65) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin Broadband down yet again no explanation very poor

  • JefferyBeaker Steph Merry (@JefferyBeaker) reported

    @EdgeGavin @virginmedia I feel like I’m going mad. I have to explain the problem over and over again because they’re so awful at their job. Still take the full payment each month for our non working broadband. I’m also doing the same with @O2 and funnily enough, same parent company 🙃
