  • PaulCraig24
    Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately not. The issue is she doesn’t receive any communication from Virgin apart from a monthly text with the link to her account. As she has no password etc she can’t access it

    Pete Irving (@ZicoPete) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia No, tried 3 times on hold for 20 minutes then cut off by agents without saying a word. After checking other responses I can see this has been the issue either other customers.

    @_MMaritima @virginmedia Wired speed test would be to isolate between a wireless problem or the connection in. Router might be shielded which would kill signal. Make sure other electronics aren't too close. I can ruin my wireless if I put router on top of my TiVo box

    @virginmedia your broadband has gotten noticeably bad these last few years, you used to be impeccable but now there’s always some fault you can’t fix and it gets pushed back again and again. ******** has happened to you? Your engineers lately are ******* shite. (Customer for 25 years)

  • whisky_duck
    Danny Whisky (@whisky_duck) reported

    @virginmedia I’m currently without broadband in the KT8 area. Status page is showing an issue but with a fix date of 22nd. This can’t be true. I’m a remote worker and unable to do my job without connectivity.

  • customerchamp1
    Paul ▶️ (@customerchamp1) reported

    Who remembers when @O2 customer service was good? Since the merger with the appalling @virginmedia it's been absolutely diabolical. Trying to help a vulnerable relative, been on hold for 45 minutes 🤮🤮🤮 to reset his password. Shameful.
