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

    @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 So what your saying is your doing the minimum required by the regulator, and failing your vulnerable customers. As previously stated VM will be mentioned in courts when people are pressing their emergency assist numbers and get a VM message saying their call can’t be connected!

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

    @virginmedia Nice to see that you "Customer Services" are maintaining their historic levels of poor service. My contract comes to an end on the 19th of this month, I am wondering why I want stay with you. .... You were near bottom Uswitches recommended list

  • 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.

  • Pogit
    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @O2 @virginmedia Thanks I’ll look into what multi-sim plans you have but the reason I left was due to poor family, multi user based tariffs.

  • Pogit
    Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia That’s not true that why they now allow calls to other urgent services for priority vulnerable customers such as gas, water electric police and medical urgent but not emergency numbers the trouble is this doesn’t allow calls to hone help and life lines though they should!

    Watching our #virginmedia router box have a red light rav whilst down which also means no tv as house has no working arial

    @virginmedia how many times are you going to pass me off to other departments or hang up on me! Not to mention create a bill that does not exist. #hadenough #virginmedia #ofcom

    @virginmedia super hub 3 is not so super anymore, more lights flashing than the Christmas tree and a WiFi range as long as my arm, been intermittent problems since Friday. No one answers your phones and I can’t access my account online 😡 #virginmedia #broadband Grrrrrrrr

  • EmcdNotts
    Erin McDaid (@EmcdNotts) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Thanks - will do if it persists but it would be so much easier to have live help or an email link rather than focusing on pushing the 'community' to help ourselves.

  • EmcdNotts
    Erin McDaid (@EmcdNotts) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Going round in circles using 'support' options listed on App. Our broadband has been intermittent since yesterday afternoon. Restarted hub 3 times. Test still showing intermittent fault. Why do you make it so difficult to contact someone to check it's being sorted?

    Graham FIrth 🇬🇧💙💛🤍🐕 (@firth_graham) reported

    Thanks @virginmedia for cancelling installation due today with less than 24 hours notice. Great you think it’s acceptable to now leave me for 2 weeks with no working from home or security cameras. Customer services can’t be bothered to call back, guess I’m leaving before joining

  • markrmifsud
    markrmifsud (@markrmifsud) reported

    @virginmedia The time to fix is pushed back nearly everything I check

  • UAVHive

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia I'm not in the least bit surprised, they have the worst customer service in telecoms.

  • FrazzzYT
    Frazzz (@FrazzzYT) reported

    Like you cannot make this BS up am sick of how bad @virginmedia are. Clearly your automatic systems are busted. And you're making staff do double work to fix ITS problems

  • britfoodfinder

    @DanAaronTaylor @virginmedia Same issue

  • JayneNunez11
    Kelli Jayne Nunez (@JayneNunez11) reported

    @keithward329 @virginmedia Depends. Auto replies are usually garbage, but the real issue is no human loop. We set up Replymer to catch mentions, then still route the messy ones to a person.

  • milesc2003
    Miles (@milesc2003) reported

    @virginmedia “Intermittent signal in your area” check back in, in X amount of hours. Been that way since 7am this morning. I get that something has gone wrong beyond your control. But to know what has gone wrong would be nice to know. Thanks

  • GMCC_Diane
    Diane Elebert-Morgan (@GMCC_Diane) reported

    @virginmedia loving the even further dial down of our broadband as we enter InTo the last few days of contract with you! You already turned it down after the first 8 weeks so we had to upgrade! We have never used you before and we will never use you again! Good riddance!

  • uglybalaclava
    Ugly Balaclava (@uglybalaclava) reported

    @virginmedia @DavidVaughan5 We have a engineer here right now and change the hub over to a new one and it’s still not working. Flashing yellow lights. This is a network problem. What is happening please? Doesn’t look like a fix will be happening

  • HBG_CLEVER
    Humans Being Clever (@HBG_CLEVER) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve now been told SEVEN times that an incorrect final bill charge would be removed, yet it’s still showing and I’m still chasing. Account no. 223578504. Please issue a corrected final bill and confirm no collections/credit impact, or I’ll contact the ombudsman
