What an absolute farce @virginmedia are. Pay a ridiculous amount each month for slow broadband that regularly doesn’t work. Now on to a second day with no service and TiVo is also down. Pathetic.

@BBCRedButton I don't think your red button service is working on @virginmedia. It's brings up the iPlayer but no live stuff like the springwatch webcams

@vmbusiness @virginmedia I called and the service I received was unbelievably poor. My first experience as a Virgin customer. Considering cancellation now.

@lxwissssss @MartinEdition @virginmedia Mine is excellent once they replaced the wiring because it was old and now mine never goes off and it’s super fast! The English call centres are great but the Indian and Philippines ones are really bad I avoid them because they just read off scripts!

@virginmedia @virginmedia service from you has been poor for months - missing the footie is just the last straw. Kindly send an engineer to fix our broadband - the wires at the wall outside are exposed and when we test each day our speeds are below 20MB/s when we are paying for 100+ Thank you

@virginmedia Then when transferred to ‘customer care’ so that I could complain and seek compensation, I waited another 20mins and was eventually cut off without speaking to anyone.

@virginmedia And it has just cut out again and your bot via the number above just said restart the router and put the phone down on me. Slightly concerned that it lasted 5 days again and decided to come back to disconnecting?

@virginmedia Thanks for reply. Problem was that no agent ever responded to move requests via the bot. I sat for 1hr on the phone last night and finally got it booked. If the bot had worked 1st time I’d be switched on when I move. Now I’ll be without service for a week. Not good when wfh!

. @virginmedia rang virgin last week to move house. You've done the external install yesterday but haven't turned up for internal install today. Tried to log into my account and it says my package is cancelled no options for support at all. Called and hung up on before answer.

@virginmedia It wouldn't be the first time that your various teams happen to forget things. The internet has been unusable for days now and we are still no closer to a solution.

@virginmedia Intermittent - but the whole street has the same problem. It is just not very reliable. Actually today there are planned works it turns out. Nasty timing - midweek🙈. I work more midweek than at any time.

@autumnpippi @virginmedia @virginhelp I went onto the Chat Bot service, had a reply confirming they know fault in our area, engineers on it, etc fixed by 4.10pm today, and then gave me the phone number and told me to phone their tech support to talk me through how to get back on now!!! Sigh.

@virginmedia your service is terrible the people on the phone are clueless, one person tells you one thing someone else tells you different. You go around in circles and offer nothing but continue to rob people of money every month……phone back this and phone back that.**** off

@virginmedia Unfortunately I’m jot able to sign in online. It’s started working again, but was down for 4 hours. There should be compensation for the ongoing disruptions. I was teaching online and our shop till was out of action. It’s not good enough!

@virginmedia An expert started on it last night and identified an issue with the router however has not responded since. The internet is not usable so we would ideally like this resolved.

@virginmedia Had no call about this security check. Called your customer service team who said there was a note put on the a/c yesterday saying I’d be contacted in 48 hours for more information. Even though I wasn’t called yesterday as promised.
