@virginmedia Could you also tell me why I cannot stream recorded programs when I’m away from home as I am required to be on the same Wi-Fi network which kind of defeats the object

@virginmedia why sell us a package when you do not have the correct infrastructure in place! 30 minutes on hold today, I’m giving up. We didn’t have these issues with Sky.

@virginmedia There is no weak signal. I’ve checked all around the house repeatedly. There are no faults in the area. I have checked repeatedly. Customer services have been unhelpful on multiple calls. Had to fight to get an upgraded hub!

@virginmedia Why do you have to continually restart the phone to get rid of the red icon on The phone app icon even when you’ve deleted the voicemail It seems this is a major problem with you I would appreciate you resolving it all as otherwise the phone is not fit for purpose

Looool. Virgin Media down again. Go to put our postcode in to see if service is affected in Redditch & apparently it's not a valid postcode. At least for a week every night the internet has gone down for about 20 minutes. Not the end of the world of course but a tad frustrating.

@virginmedia Hi, thanks for getting back to me. All my VM services were down in past 48 hours. Now restored. BUT you seem to have deleted my Sent Box from Virgin email Server. I had 2 sent boxes, but the one deleted is the major one synced to my Windows 10 so can't send imp work documents!!

@virginmedia obviously massive problems!! All services down for 2 days, now reinstalled but they've deleted my Sent box on their server so I can't email documents, badly affects work and no technical support. They just cut out and hang up!!!

@virginmedia My computer guy HAS looked at your forum. We know what the problem is but it needs technical support your end to fix it. It would take the right person 2 mins but we cant get past your incredibly poor customer service to get any kind of tech support. So stressful & frustrating.

@virginmedia Literally three years of the same inconsistency. And appalling customer service when you speak to anyone. There is nothing you have done or will do to improve this. As soon as I can get a decent speed from another local company I’ll be gone.

@virginmedia It’s not a good enough response. You’re providing a sub bar service and yet I’m still paying my bill in full. I expect a discount until the matter is resolved.

@virginmedia Okay. Just that Twitter asked me to sign into it and results would give you access. Thanks for clarification...just really dont understand why I have to go to a forum to get tech support for an error Virgin has made.

@virginmedia I have a technician coming on Tues to replace SuperHub but need specific technical support to restore Sent box on PC. Windows say object not found error Ox8004010F. VM techs used to help in past at level 2 or 3. Now it's impossible to get past level 1 tech support.

@virginmedia Yes, security cameras, nest heating, hue bulbs. Less frequently. But still happens. Everything works for a while then something or several things stop. Never everything. We have entirely re-set everything once, which takes hours to sort and is not an answer.

@virginmedia worst customer service I have ever come across!!! Arrange a call back time....dont bother to call back, then continue to bill me for a contract ended nearly months ago!!!!

@virginmedia No. It’s usually just one of the connected devices we lose at a time. Most often speakers but sometimes security cameras, sometimes hue bulbs. Never everything at once.

@virginmedia The link you provide is entirely not the problem. We’ve had the same issue for 2 years. It doesn’t stop being a problem. And every time we contact someone about it, we get the same advice because there’s no continuation. Please read the message chain if you’re going to reply.

@virginmedia We have called numerous times. We have emailed as well. We will be sending a letter to the CEO soon. We - and all the other people on our streets - have followed all the protocols and keep getting nothing in terms of resolving the problem that is ongoing and unresolved.

@virginmedia Yeah sure. The boy asks if urgent. When you respond yes, it just tells you WhatsApp. Then if you say no, it’s starts all over again. Rubbish service

@virginmedia my internet was down on Friday and has been sporadic ever since and is nigh on impossible contacting anyone. Please DM me so this can be resolved. Thanks in advance.

@virginmedia It has stated you're aware of the issue, so why need someone call? When I know a client/customer has an issue I don't need them to call me, I sort it.

(@ImKirstyMarks) reported
@virginmedia Nothing to do with package or price. I’ve paid this amount for years and yet you then screw long term customers by forcing them into a new package to gain more money! 12 years virgin…. Would love to know your customer retention, @SkyUK I will be looking to swap 👍🏻

@mrtonylee @virginmedia I like their broadband. I don't use their WiFi I use their router as a router But... I don't use their DNS or DHCP. (when I do, yeah it is crap)

@virginmedia Oh for heaven’s sakes!! Please see earlier tweets re: this issue. It is neighborhood wide - and happening all the time. Intermittent outages. @LutzSchueler you are about to lose 200 homes to another provider. It’s been going on since November but really bad since Jan.

@virginmedia Thanks for the quick reply. I've tried the service checker, just says there are issues and the engineers are working on it, but doesnt provide any updates as to when they expect service to resume
