@virginmedia I've rebooted the box & it's resolved the issues with the Apps - thank you - however it doesn't explain why my Netflix subscription has been removed from my service package and bill, which presumably happened before the problems started yesterday late afternoon accessing Apps?

@virginmedia There are no local problems - I checked yesterday - also my account detail's show my next Virgin bill due next week has had the Netflix subscription removed by you & my Netflix account shows it was last paid in May. I'll try a reboot & see what happens - thank you

@KellyQuilt @virginmedia Virgin are hopeless for ease of contact. My daughter was with them and the service wasn’t at all good. This nonsense about calling them at a time to suit them is just ludicrous. They need to admit that they (& others) don’t staff adequately to suit their customers convenience. 🤬

Very pleased to publicly announce we are leaving virgin media. I have never known such a diabolical internet service - current situation our 100mb per whatever it is means our internet is unstable for any zoom session. Utterly ridiculous. Hoorah for us 🙌🏻

CANNOT WAIT until we leave @VirginMedia in a few months time. Non stop internet issues for months now. I’d urge everyone to swerve Virgin Media. Better companies out there who do more and cost less.

@virginmedia Hi John, my wifi has gone down 4 times since last night, we’ve reset it on the box twice this morning alone and it still keeps dropping … can’t get through to anyone on the phone and website says they won’t send anyone out for another 24 hours and only if the wifi stays down ???

@AGJ27_ @TwiitterJo @virginmedia Ours has gone down… Again. The 5th time this evening. I’ve had enough of this ****. Genuinely can’t wait to leave. Never experienced such awful service in my life.

@virginmedia hey guys whatever I try to play back or if I rewind live tv to play back the boxing is terrible so much so you’re unable to watch the programme. The wires are all connected fine and all other internet devices are fine. What’s the issue?

@virginmedia Just to let you know I was billed by you for Netflix on 10 June, the subscription was not paid to Netflix by you - so they cancelled my account! You owe me a refund please! Also this was a issue as far back as May & Virgin were saying "they were addressing it" Still are it seems!

@virginmedia I'd like to know why you discontinued my Netflix subscription? The service just stopped but I didn't cancel it? It was paid for in June but there is no charge due to be made in July! It was connected up to Sunday but today I just got a message asking me to rejoin?

@virginmedia you claim we get 100 whatever’s per second. So tell me. Why my internet doesn’t work. I can’t stay on a zoom as my “internet is unstable” and live tv “jumps” not streams. You sent somebody to resolve last time. It’s now repeated this behaviour again. Why do that?

@virginmedia Doesn't matter now, we've terminated the contract and joined Three home broadband. I just think it's disgusting that a customer of over 10 years doesn't get offered a deal as good as a new customer.

@virginmedia That’s the problem, i want the offer you offered me on Monday, I phoned within an hour of receiving the email, why would you offer me something that’s expired or why would you offer something that expired within an hour of sending the email, neither of those make sense

@virginmedia I can't understand why you won't respond to my complaint. The only options I have been offered was to accept compensation before the problem was resolved or to close my account. Deeply unimpressed.

Moving to #VirginMoblie #Virginmedia worst mistake ever, ported my number but can't make or receive calls, 45mins on hold to customercare then cuts off, whatsapp = auto reply, online chat = auto reply - great service.

Nextdoor top post: Appalling service from Virgin Media …but no I won't pay more and suffer lower speed And they wonder why the service is allowed to be so bad.

@virginmedia Hi John. I phoned today. Automated service. Switched router on and off. Speeds now up at 390mbs. I will keep checking speed through the evening. It has done this before so I expect the speed to drop to a crawl later but let’s see.
