@virginmedia is there a known issue in the BN2 6 area of Brighton with your broadband? Crashed at 14:30 and hub seems to be unable to rejoin the network...

@virginmedia I thought as much. I have never received such a call before - It is as if they were targeting telephone numbers affected by yesterdays outage.

@virginmedia Absolute rubbish. I pay a premium for super fast broadband and it buffers during Streaming plus I've had no internet or phone line all day YET AGAIN. #internet #broadband #poor service

Hi @virginmedia any news on why our broadband and TV haven't worked since 7pm yesterday in Burgess Hill? No comms and status update just says you are aware with an expected fix moving on in time...

@virginmedia But why do we have to keep looking for information. Is there no way of updating the customer directly, it is appalling customer communication. What is the problem? Why just keep putting estimates? If it isn't going to be fixed for 48 hours tell us.

@virginmedia Tried it several times - it says there are no issues. Our phone can’t ring out, constant sound of a message being there (intermittent beep) but nothing happens when trying to use it. People can’t hear us when we answer. Bought brand new phones and still the same.

@virginmedia This is still appalling customer service. I have to register (I did this when things were down in Dec for almost 72 hours), I have to alert etc you are the service provider. How is it good CS that we assume you are lying in estimates? No compensation for Dec either.

1/4 Customer scam alert: When moving and contacting @virginmedia to transfer your services to your new property, if they cannot provide services there they will apply an early disconnection charge which they will state is in accordance with their Legal Stuff, do not accept this.

@virginmedia Call you...? How do you think I found out about the issues? I wasted hours on the phone calling the numbers you have quoted. Give me strength.

@virginmedia Yes, everything seems to be working now. However, I have just received a call from Virgin Media, or someone purporting to be you, telling me that I had poor broadband performance , and I needed to sit in front of my laptop to fix it. I soon hung up, getting the wrong vibes.

@virginmedia Yes it says there is a known fault which has been going on since Friday at 7pm. No further explanation and the estimate fix just keeps resetting. It is absolutely unacceptable.

@virginmedia your DNS TTL (a web server change time to live) is probably the worst on earth. My new website works everywhere in the world other than on #virginmedia broadband. You absolutely suck, big time. Crock of shite.

@virginmedia My area is part of your home phone switch over. I didn’t have a power outage but if I do when it’s on your super knew switch over it won’t work. And your less than helpful person on the line I informed me it’s my responsibility that any compatible items don’t work. Great!

@virginmedia I am completely fed up of being kicked out of blueyonder email and getting '403 forbidden' messages, even when logged in successfully to My Virgin Media. There is an ongoing problem here. When is it going to be solved? From memory it affects ntlworld users too.

Seems to be a hell of a lot of complaints to Virgin Media... wonder why and what's going on there? Poor.

@virginmedia Since Monday, internet service has been intermittent, and now it is completely down again and definitely isn’t ‘even more amazing’ would really appreciate if you advise why this hasn’t been fixed as it is interrupting work so it is not on.

@virginmedia I can’t access the channels because you miss sold a package to us and now won’t activate the Channels we were promised! I haven’t activated the sim because I have a complaint going through which seems to be taking a long time to resolve

@virginmedia It was actually your tech support team that tried contacting me, when I kept saying it was a really bad line, the colleague was quite rude and put phone down so still none the wiser what the problem is......

@virginmedia i am shocked at your level of customer service. You made me retention offer on WhatsApp and did not honour it in a call. Really shocked how you treat a customer of 10+years. As such I will take my money elsewhere!

@virginmedia I don’t want to be rude but receiving a pre-scripted reply when I experienced constant disruption of the service is highly unprofessional. You could at least reply to my question! 😡😡😡
