Marco Olevano, CFA (@MarcoOlevano) reported from Hounslow, England@virginmedia good evening, been battling with intermittent connectivity issues on your fibre broadband last 2 months. Have called your technical team before who just make you do the old school reboot which hasn't helped. Not quite sure why i am paying for a service not working
-
Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, EnglandCalled @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.
-
Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England@rachel_uk_ @virginmedia Feel your frustration. 2 promised callbacks never happened,web complaint form doesn’t work. No email address for complaints. Sent letter of complaint 28/09z No response despite website saying I’d get one within 48 hours. Virgin do not care about customers.
-
Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford, England@virginmedia …and now download speed is 50-70 mbps as opposed to 500 mbps + before the incident (hard wired to router not over Wi-Fi). Please can you look into this?
-
Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England@virginmedia I’m afraid not. I did ask to speak to a supervisor/manager and they said they would submit this request. My question is: is there actually a fault or is this an ongoing issue? It seems to be the latter, tbh.
-
Gabriela Lungu (@GabrielaLungu) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia Yes, they are known issues; but they haven’t been fixed in over a month! Every day the message keeps changing. Thursday the promise is to have things fixed by Friday, Friday it moves to Monday aso… It’s been like this for a month 🤯 We work from home; we need decent broadband.

≡xtr≡m≡pcuk 🔜 #i69 🤟 (@ExtremePCUK) reported from Hillingdon, England@virginmedia ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE! I’ve worked with major computer and ISP’s over my time but by far Virgin Media is the worst! I pay £111 a month and not one person can help. Intermittent internet for a month but they say just wait another week it may be back on!

jrd1982 (@thefitebegins) reported from Hillingdon, England@virginmedia Yet again Virgin Media is down and yes I have tried the checker. Why are services with VM constantly going down across the UK?
-

The Actionable Futurist® Andrew Grill (@AndrewGrill) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia I’m not a VM customer, I just want to buy a WiFi pass as my carrier’s login methods have changed and I can no longer log in automatically
-
John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England@virginmedia Done that, and still doesn't work
-
Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Hammersmith, England@AlexanderTroup @virginmedia I guess there is a retention quota of some sort, that needs to be hit for some big wig get a big fat bonus. Especially, since we staying a customer anyway, just different account.
-
Ravinder Judge (@judge_ravinder) reported from Hounslow, England@virginmedia Different messages every time. Mainly Connections issues, I have switched, rebooted and checked all day today…nothing!!!
-
Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England@virginmedia @mundaytom Not true. No response to complaint letter sent August and when we’ve rung “manager will call you in 3-5 days”. Been told that 3 times. Not one callback. Shambles.
-
Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Croxley Green, England@virginmedia An engineer came today. Issue resolved. If you remember I told you that it was highly probable that work being performed at a cabinet on our street may have resulted in our issue. I also told your telephone support team. That’s exactly what had happened. Appalling service.
-
Lee Neale (@lhntennis) reported from Richmond, England@virginmedia After a long phone conversation with one of your operatives today we were promised an engineer would come out but nobody showed. Over a month without reliable broadband. Checked our contract we are bound to you until 2024 and need to pay to leave your terrible service

Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported@CliveR39 @virginmedia @Ofcom I lost tv service before the world cup started for 16 days, I was told I would recieve automatic compensation but didnt recieve any discount, had to raise a complaint and they told me they would offer £20 as goodwill gesture because I didn't have total loss of service.
-
Anand Gupta (@anandcheam) reported@virginmedia can you spend some money on customer care so they can answer calls / chats and LISTEN when they do ? You guys sent me 2016 router box when the agreement was to send the latest and now no one is licking up the phone, is that joke? @Ofcom British regulators need to penalise where it starts hurting the service company. Like they do in the USA, 100s of millions of pounds or billions. Not peanuts.
-
Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reported@Joyevnm @virginmedia Exactly the same tactics here. Delayed weekly since 27 July. Now on Day 26 with absolutely no service and no useful information. @virginmedia

Dave Polayah (@dpolayah) reported@virginmedia is virgin BB down?

Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reported@virginmedia I need this escalated as a formal complaint regarding fault **F012421201**, because the information Virgin Media is providing has now become demonstrably contradictory. At **08:01 today, 20 August**, Virgin Media told me: “Our engineer is on site and they're working to fix the problem.” The estimated repair time given was **18:00 today**. At **15:27 today**, after I have been without service for most of the day, Virgin Media has now told me: “We have identified the problem and an engineer is on their way.” The estimated repair time has also been moved to **14:10 tomorrow, 21 August**. These statements cannot both accurately describe the progress of the same fault. An engineer who was already **on site and working on the problem at 08:01** cannot subsequently be **“on their way” at 15:27** without some explanation. I fully understand that a complex network fault may take longer to repair than initially anticipated, and that estimated restoration times can change. That is not my complaint. My complaint is that Virgin Media is repeatedly providing contradictory factual information about the status of the repair, while I remain without the service I am paying for. I consequently have no confidence in the estimated restoration times being provided. Please therefore: 1. **Log this as a formal complaint and provide me with the complaint reference.** 2. Confirm the actual current status of fault **F012421201**, rather than repeating the automated status information. 3. Explain how an engineer could be reported as on site and working at 08:01 but “on their way” at 15:27. 4. Confirm when the outage affecting my service officially began and that the full period of loss of service has been recorded against my account. 5. Confirm what automatic compensation I will be entitled to for the complete loss of service, where applicable. I have retained screenshots of the outage updates and their timestamps. Please respond to the specific points above rather than sending me another automated repair estimate.

john (@jhargie4) reported@o2 @virginmedia @Virgin CEO LUTZ SCHUELER seems only your bot accounts actually care about the customer

Jim Davies (Ex Labour Voter & Member) (@Davies133) reported@virginmedia 30 minutes and counting waiting for someone on your retentions line to pick up the phone!!! It looks like I'm not alone in wanting to leave. Is this what counts for customer service? 😡

putasinghonit (@putasinghonit) reportedAnyone ever had @virginmedia charge them for a movie they never purchased? Theres no history on my app, box or even an email confirmation of said purchase mind you - just a charge on my bill for £17.99 which they say was purchased with a pin number on the box.
-
Jane Bissell (@BissellJane1) reported@virginmedia another day without any internet and impossible to get a refund I had 2 days last month without service but all your staff are interested in is trying to sell products I don’t want I’ve reduced all products due to cost of living but I’m still getting calls every day

Captain_red_waffle (@Cptredwaffle) reported@virginmedia 3rd street-wide outage this year in LS6 tonight. Surveyors have confirmed my property is infra-locked with zero Openreach/Altnet access. Virgin holds a total monopoly here, yet the local street infrastructure is failing. Shambolic really, I need this escalating.
