1 whole week without any @virginmedia, months of signal issues. Engineer has gone out of his way but having to continually wait. Hopefully the engineer booked for tomorrow turns up and replaces my now faulty equipment.

@virginmedia please advise Reduced mobile signal in the NE31 area. The signals were fine until a couple of months ago. previously had 4g I now mainly get E or sometimes 3G this is an issue due to my elderly mother-in-law being in hospital and now very poor signal in their home

@_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 This appears to be a known issue on your forums (phantom calls) but we refuse to be charged for the visit. Also waiting for a WhatsApp for over an hour because the direct debit still has his late wife's name on account after 7+ years, & we can't change it online (same acc no.).

@virginmedia why is your self service so poor please. Unable to resolve the fault that I have on my service for 2 days now. No one to speak to and the website is abhorrent in terms of customer experience and engagement. Endless loop of bad requests within the servers you use too

@virginmedia That was the original issue, the main thing outside was flooded and corroded (affecting 6 customers in street), so the network team I think came and fixed that, we've had 1 week of working service until today.

@gotthegistofit @virginmedia Same, just spent a frustrating hour on their "customer service" line because about £40 of calls are on my father-in-law's bill which weren't made. Still not resolved and an engineer has to come our first (which they wanted to charge for!)

@_MMaritima @virginmedia I'd say that needs an engineer visit then at least. Probably either a bad connection or a flakey modem. Phone and log it every time it goes off.

Ye gods, @virginmedia customer service is beyond terrible. An hour trying to resolve a "phantom calls" issue last night which now needs an engineer visit, and spotted that a direct debit is in an incorrect name but this can't be changed via WhatsApp chat and needs *another* call.

@virginmedia everything else is working except kids channels 712 to 717, W02 error. No other channel issues or broadband, done all the standard resets, unplugged at mains etc. Do I need to call to have this resolved? TV guide just says 'to be announced' Everything else is fine.

@virginmedia Just as bad! Wifi just gone again in the middle of a school lesson and working. I hope my account will be recompensed accordingly

@smiles333 @virginmedia This is a big problem with Virgin Media. Then when you do get a call arranged for a specific time, they call you at a different time entirely.

@virginmedia The customer is always right... I think we know better than you if our service is working properly we are the ones who have to put up with it. £130+ a month for something that doesn’t even work as it should!

Thank you #virginmedia for shitting in my day. I have been trying to just cancel my account with #virginmedia and being transferred from one department to another which is wasted my day with a stupid tape record for more than 1 hour every time. Adding the call screenshot.

@RobbieShenton @elonmusk Cost will reduce as it scales. For the UK he needs to get it to below £50 a month to compete with the likes of virgin media. Only issue is they all make you buy TV and internet as a package.

@virginmedia Well how's this for customer service. "Unfortunately we are very busy and can't take your call. Please try again later." Maybe switch to @SkyUK?

@virginmedia So all I need to do is paying the full amount on the bill and then sit down and wait till you refund me? If you do not, I will try to call your customer service which approximately answers in an hour:) or I can reply your tweets and you can act like helping me again on twitter.👏

@virginmedia No they haven’t. I understand but at the moment we are paying for a service that does not work the majority of the time, and if it does the connection is very weak.
