@virginmedia Your agent told me 72hrs. But then I was also told if I post on the forum I will get support. But we can all see how that has panned out. Just. Fix. The. Problem. Why is this so difficult? I guess copy/paste apologies are just cheaper than dealing with the real issues.

@virginmedia I get that. But several people on there have logged issues. I haven’t used that tool but try it. But issue is defo at your end as between outages speed/latency is brilliant and other people have same issue on street. That’s why I’m so keen to fix not leave as usually gr8 service.

@virginmedia awful customer service in my experience. Been trying to cancel contract since yesterday with no success! On line chat refer to team but they don’t respond and phone lines cut you off after 55 minutes of holding on!

@virginmedia Still keeps going off. Has been like this for months now. Has gone off twice this evening. Can’t get hold of anyone. Self service goes in circles. Just need to speak to someone who will listen to the issue. It has to be network level. 2 engineers have confirmed our setup is fine.

@virginmedia I've been in an online chat for nearly 2 hours today just to arrange transfer of services to my new house. I've led the conversation entirely. I'm not even going to report the CMs identity. Just wanted you to know how bad the experience was.

@virginmedia what has happened to your customer service? I have been waiting since Wednesday evening for someone to reply ‘ as soon as possible’ about a fault. Currently on hold as usual on the phone. Is there anyone there at all!?

@virginmedia Well since our exchange I’ve now been asked my problem and same security questions by an automated text bot 3 times with no actual response. Now the internet has just gone off again during the football. Think I’ll stop recommending @virginmedia to people now.

@virginmedia This is the exact problem. Your agents deny there is an issue in the area. A recent social media post revealed many people in our neighbourhood have the same issue. All your agents want to do is ‘send signals’ to our router and restart our router. Nobody taking issue seriously.

@virginmedia Yes dropouts Ethernet and WiFi. To be clear that message was not our engineer. Just proof prob is beyond our home. That neighbourhood thread is 14 comments long! We’ve had 2 engineers out. Cable replaced and hub replaced. Problem persists. 4 dropouts this eve alone.

@virginmedia No not aware of status line please advise. No interest in community support forum. This is an issue with your service and equipment. Needs proper support.

@virginmedia why are you ignoring my tweets on the other thread you started? On your advice been trying to get support over SMS but it just goes in a continuous loop of the same questions for 4 days?!! You also don’t answer your phone or live chat? How do I actually get help?

@virginmedia Not being rude but I have explained it more than once to various people at Virgin media, who really can't come up with a solution and I feel that they're not really interested in doing so either, I feel as if I'm just another customer who is just not getting what I'm paying for😩

@virginmedia so am missing the football again - about the third time now in about 6 weeks. Engineers have replaced all cables and router but refuse to accept it’s a network issue. How do I actually progress this or speak to someone who cares?

@virginmedia utterly appalling service from Virgin Media. Internet completely down the other day and now problematic to say the least. Tried phoning earlier and gave up after half an hour. Just tried again and gave up after 35 mins. What has happened to the service? It’s awful

@virginmedia nothing but trouble since getting the Hub 4. WiFi continually drops out and terrible coverage around the house. Worked perfectly before. I’ve spoken with customer service a dozen times this last month and still not resolved. All they do is offer me pods for an extra £5pm terrible
