@virginmedia yes well after waiting in for five hours yesterday for an engineer to come I was just told it had been rearranged for the 28th. The great pity is they never informed me to find out if that was OK, such gross inefficiency abounds within your organisation.

@virginmedia BTW. It’s not an ‘intermittent’ issue - I’ve had no service at all for 18 hours, and what exactly does ‘taking us a little longer than usual’ to fix actually mean?

@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 do you actually read formal complaints or are they just automated responses too?! For the second time the response does not answer the complaint at all?

@virginmedia hi I’m aware there’s a calling issue just now on Virgin Mobile but I was wondering how to get an upgraded 5G SIM on ultimate Oomph as the one we have is only allowing 4G.

@virginmedia Yes I have phoned yet again this morning so I think your organisation are considering some sort of compensation for the five weeks I have been without the service. No doubt it will be a paltry sum in comparison to what I pay every month.

@virginmedia Sorry? Like my formal complaint - I’m unsure if you have read my tweet? I bought a box and returned the WiFi myself. Ombudsman time?

@virginmedia I have now had no service - internet, tv, phone - for 24 hours. It’s impossible to speak with someone about this. There is only a vague automated message about a ‘complicated problem’. How can I get this fixed? What are you doing to address this?

@virginmedia The phone is not working and your engineer was arranged to call today between 1.00 and 6.00pm needless to say he did not arrive or give me a call to arrange another day.

@virginmedia I tried to get help but didn’t get through to anyone just a text sent to my mobile telling me how to fix it but no joy. Checked the forums and turns out I’m not alone and the upgrade is rubbish so just stuck it in the cupboard.. hopeless!

@virginmedia Just said it would be back on by 1230. It’s not … paying a fortune (way above the odds!) a month for service I’m not getting. New contract with another provider incoming.

@virginmedia Read my tweet. I have been sent a “resolution” already. Which advised to return the box/speak to online chat if further issues. As I have pointed out multiple times I have already returned the box. This is absolutely infuriating at this point.

@virginmedia What complex issue? Can you explain what it is? Your service status says it’s fine. I have to wait a week for an engineer. Forgive me for being cynical.

@virginmedia I managed to find a phone number to call you. The message 'don't contact us unless you need to' isn't great is it! Follow up text asks me to rate VM on the basis of my interaction. Not fair is it. Not the help desk fault if everything else is so bad.

@virginmedia If I phone there is a message saying there is a complex fault. The online fault tracker says there isn’t. Hard really to understand what the problem is and when and how it will be fixed. Still no service at all. Not impressed.

@virginmedia Except I can’t because I get fobbed off and they just try to get me to upgrade my package. Seriously. I’d just like to know if there is some systemic complex issue, as you suggest, or not.

@virginmedia at last, fixed at last, that’s only taken from the 20th Nov to the 28th of Dec to fix my home phone.

@virginmedia So what am I paying for as I sit here in the cold and can’t work. I’m assuming Virgin will be compensating me for loss of service and wages? And why if this has been a problem since Saturday why hasn’t anyone looked at it which was what I was told.

@virginmedia so I have a WiFi pod. Looking at my network I can see that I have some devices close to the pod connecting to the hub, which is further away, with a fair connection, and devices close to the hub connecting to the further away pod... Weird.

@virginmedia Good morning. Please find out current status of repair to service in W10 5SX. We’ve had no broadband or landline since Friday afternoon when you said repair by 9am today. Your phone line has no info. Thank you.

My apologies for recommending @virginmedia, their installation teams don't turn up and the customer service is atrocious.

@virginmedia Unhappy customer! Broadband not working. Website says you can’t do a service test right now. Phone automated message says engineers are working in my area & I must register for text updates. I get sent a link which says you see no issues in my area. What is true?!
