    Friday night powered by 5G since @virginmedia delivery via @YodelOnline seems to have disappeared into the ether. So work was painfully slow, and now I’m cleaning the fridge because, it seems everything in this 1860’s house is reliant on broadband. Thank god for @EE 📱

    Finally something positive to say about @virginmedia following a call from Callum at the “executive team” providing the level of current service I would expect from a such a huge company! Perhaps the skills of good customer service need to be a CPD exercise for the call centres!

    @Will_Jeffs @virginmedia Tbf ive had problems with my wifi for the last few days, what i done was unplug everything then wait a couple of mins then plug it all back in again then it was fine.

  • vcash78
    victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    I was left without service for a week with multiple lies, promises of calls that didn’t happen and appalling customer service … you promise compensation of a month for free, the next you state £650 for disconnection. We are in a coat of living crisis you idiots! @virginmedia

    @virginmedia any idea why my internet keeps dropping off. No issues that I can see in the area. Been doing it for two days now.

    @virginmedia Spent another 75 mins on the phone & managed to get a technician out this afternoon.The technician confirmed it is a known fault with the hub 5 and knew without testing what the issue was. The fault has no fix and my vulnerable parents are still left without the phone service.

    Viv Haig (@vivhaig) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done all of that and my phone is saying ‘Check phone line’. My land line has been off since last Friday. Ever since it was swapped over to your fibre network and the new adapter fitted to the back of the router. I’m paying for a service I’m not receiving.

  • vcash78
    victoria carolina (@vcash78) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Since yesterday afternoon. I was working so not entirely sure but approx 24 hours. £160 a month to be without even “free” channels. I am aware nothing is without fault but the poor customer service and lack of ability to locate/tell us what the issue is, is appalling.

    @virginmedia And the scheduled engineer call tomorrow got cancelled because of this unrelated and later supposed outage. It’s a farce.

    @virginmedia a want to upgrade my account but your site hasn't let me view my options in over a week and I can't get through on the phone. Please help.

  • ladyracer70
    diandrick (@ladyracer70) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Thanks for asking. An operator will call me back tomorrow, as it’s part of an ongoing three week saga. I’m so disappointed as I’ve been a loyal VM (originally Telewest) customer for around 30 years. Remaining hopeful 🙃

    @andrewducker I did have two rather stressful conversations with Virginmedia a couple of months back. In the first one they offered me a terrible offer and said it was the best and moving took ages. They did this in a slow way, always trying to divert the conversation. 1/

    @y_alibhai @virginmedia The arrogance. You don’t get preferential treatment Yasmine due to your ‘awards’. Btw If you agree with SM ban for kids meaning we will all have to sign in to access SM then get used to this.
