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

@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.

@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.

@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.

@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 .....

@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.

@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.

@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 ....

@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).

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

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

@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

@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.

@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.

@virginmedia They said they would sort it and call me today. I had a phone all to the house phone at 11pm waking up my mrs that asked me to text back which I couldn’t do so no idea what that meant. They have all disappeared and I still have no update I have been promised resolution by Sat

@virginmedia Nope offered engineer visit. Having problems over the last few days I knew this wasn't warranted so didn't book. Connection came back at ~08:35. This is not good enough, this issue should have been resolved yesterday.

@virginmedia I don't want to book an engineer if the problem is the network. The service status tests aren't conclusive. Are other customers in the area having issues?

@virginmedia I cannot get through on your switchboard to speak to a human because of the system you have on your switchboard I do not have the option to talk to anybody about the problem I have. The customer service is appalling. You charge a lot of money for your service but you must service

Sarah Edwards
(@missy_sedwards) reported
@virginmedia Thank you. Yes, I have been advised of this. But here lies an issue. The service is incredibly poor, but not full loss and so not entitled to any compensation. Yet we are paying for the fastest speed, we cannot use and have incurred a price increase!

@virginmedia Thank you. It's E17 3JH. The internet is now completely down. I shouldn't be paying for this anymore. I have asked other friends around London and they have had the same issues for weeks. How is this allowed to happen?!?

@virginmedia I’m not particularly frustrated. Things go wrong. Your problem management could do with significant improvements though
