@virginmedia That’s not what my issue is. WHY IS THE INTERNET SO INCONSISTENT??? - and threatening to charge a £240 to cancel the contract for wifi that does work is very poor customer service!

Turns out turning your @virginmedia Hub 4 off and on again resets the 2.4GHz network name.

Chad Masters (@chadlymasterson) reported from Birmingham, England

@deepblue1990 @virginmedia Power users are utter bastards to provide support for tbf

Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia If these pods don’t work, I’ll back with more reasons for why people should avoid using your rubbish service. It’s pathetic really that I have to come on Twitter to do this for you to be bothered just because of reputation. Disgraceful

Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia Would it be ok to not just send me the same message each time but tell me how you’re going to make sure the service what it should be? Both my wife and my work is utterly dependent on good internet access
-
Tricia (@Tricia__Winspur) reported from Birmingham, England
Hi @virginmedia any issues I B14 as my Internet is not working. I've done diagnostic tests etc & it reports no issues. My Hub has been flashing green for an hour, the Internet kicks in & then drops out again. I am a home worker and have lost an hours working time so far. Help.
-
Chad Masters (@chadlymasterson) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia Superhub 3.0 , it has been giving me grief for years, and had dns / ip resolving issues and so many others. All fixed with a hard reset, don’t wanna be resetting my router constantly
-
Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia They said they’ve run diagnostics and found no issues so basically I’m making it up in my head ???? Tbh this is terrible and a waste of time paying my bill
-
Tara-Louise Swann (@SwannTara) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia for 3 days now after 9pm internet keeps dropping, keep having to reset the hub 4 in the last hour it has occurred 4 times, run tests no issues in the area apparently yet on local fb group loads of people having same issue in B24 Birmingham !
-
Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia yet again last night and now this morning your service is t working despite the large amount we pay you every month. The two of us work from home - you are costing us business. If you can’t provide a decent consistency service then admit it and we’ll change provider
-
Tim Evans (@TimEvans1503) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia big thanks for your rubbish service that meant I dropped out of giving a lecture part way through - we pay a small fortune and expect decent service
-
Chad Masters (@chadlymasterson) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia @m1kewh1te83 Well you see i have asked multiple times for a replacement HUB and told i was not allowed a HUB 4 unless i bought your 1Gbps service. Now why would i buy that if your current services are down regularly and wont replace my hub? Twice in the same week it has been down!!

Shannon Johnson (@shannxnj) reported from Birmingham, England
Tried to submit a complaint form to get in touch as your team have been so slow in responding. How can I get this resolved? @virginmedia
-
Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England
@ThreeUKSupport hi. My mobile number starts with 07305. It originally was issued by @virginmedia. I’ve had some companies try to call me (including the landline where I work) saying calls to this number can’t be connected or the number isn’t available. Is there an easy fix?
-
Adwoa Agyeiwaa (@tweet_estaa) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia I’ve been having issues with my wifi since I got it last year and now we’ve been talked into getting a “pod” for an extra £5 p/m only for the guy to say it still doesn’t guarantee wifi speed. Whatever you lot are smoking please quit.
-
Dan (@Dannuccino) reported from West Bromwich, England
I've never had a more frustrating ISP than @virginmedia support lines provide no help and we're stuck in a loop of disconnects whilst being told nothing is wrong.
-
Steven 'STIG' Jones (@stevejones88) reported from Birmingham, England
@virginmedia after 3.5hrs on the phone to your teams in every country from around the world today with horrendous customer service, can I get a phone number for a manager or complaints department in ENGLAND. Already filed complaint with communications ombudsman for Ofcom.

Karen (@KarenCampbell) reported
@virginmedia Hi, thanks for the response. There is no dialling tone. If I call there’s no response. She called every day and been told you know of the issue and the service shall return by 4pm, 7:30pm or 8pm. Today she’s been told it’ll be fixed in the next 4-24hrs.
-
Holly (@PyxiePants) reported
@virginmedia What is the recorded massage? I can hear the words "broadband" "issue" "area" and "if this isn't why you're calling..." I have phoned 3 times and the message is totally inaudible. To me it sounds as though SOMEONE is aware there is an actual issue your end that is affecting me.
-
Mimi (@TreacleTowers) reported
@panchoballard I left Virgin Media a few years as they increased the price twice in 12mths for just a basic package. I wasn't too impressed with their service so couldn't be arsed to haggle.

simon allinson (@simonallinson1) reported
@virginmedia I give up nobody gives a damn or bothered but gonna complain to someone higher up in authority cos none of you know how to do your job.
-
Allyson Clancy (@ClancyAllyson) reported
@virginmedia Of course I will be making a formal complaint. Meantime where’s the engineers promised ? I’m utterly fed up just thrown around from a to b and no one knows how to help .
-
Dermot Heaney (@dermotheaney) reported
@Rcheasty75 @virginmedia Thanks Ray, was thinking of using their broadband service, but that’s turned me right off.
-
Chris Green (@chrisgreen) reported from Hillingdon, England
It’s now 23 days since I suffered a total loss of all @virginmedia services. Virgin Media has done NOTHING to repair it, provided ZERO proactive updates, LIED repeatedly to me about when it will fix things, I’ve spent 7hrs & 53mins on the phone chasing for information #epicfail
-
RunHammer11 (@Hammer11Run) reported
@virginmedia Still ongoing, online stats still ongoing. Why do they say fixed then have same problem next day? Are they doing it correctly?
-
stuh40 (@stuh40) reported
@virginmedia All my devices, 4 iPhones 2 iPads and 2 Amazon tablets. It’s very bizarre as every thing was working perfectly fine until about 10am. I’m also aware of a number of my Twitter followers that are also experiencing the same issue. As soon as I turn my WiFi off I can view all videos.

@lizperrella @NoContextBrits Virgin Media can't be fixed without burning their ops and support orgs to the ground. Move to a real ISP instead.
