. @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 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 The worst bit is that I was on hold for 36 minutes listened to the same song 3 times and then was hung up on.

@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 Yes unable to use it. Wireless is very poor and was great during the first couple of weeks. Uploading is very hot and miss. Not happy considering I’m paying for fast broadband. My phone rarely connects to it unless I’m fairly close to the router. This can’t be right

@virginmedia I see. It is very unfortunate as I cannot do my work when I’m not online and I also spend more on mobile internet because the service I pay for regularly is simply not there.

@virginmedia your internet service in Gateshead for the last few days has been terrible. Keep losing connection here 🙄

@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 Yes. There is a known issue in my area but no "explanation". It's states the fix estimate is 3pm. That's almost a whole day's salary.

@virginmedia So now moved to @vmbusinesshelp line instead of residential activated yesterday and new router installed with no problems. Tonight 7.19pm internet goes down? 7.45m internet goes down? I am paying significantly more and receiving the same poor line?!?!?

@virginmedia So I expected a call today before 12pm from business team I also logged a call back on the website for one of the team to call me before 12pm. Engineer on Friday said someone would call in the morning it’s now just gone after 12 and I am still waiting? This is poor?!

@virginmedia There isn’t any reported problems in my area but mine is very ‘hit and miss’ at the moment. I’ll go for periods where nothing will upload/download at all

@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 I called the help line and a bot told me to restart my router twice and then proceeded to end the call. Little fed up

@virginmedia Service page doesn’t indicate anything. I’ve checked all the devices (I only use the wifi no lan cables) and nothing is connected.

@virginmedia is there a reason why when I’m working from home with so much to that involves internet access including online meetings that yet again your service is not working in B36? This is happening so often it is ridiculous

@virginmedia Hi thank you for replying, no we haven't been advised on how long it will take. Just an unlucky coincidence with the bilsdale transmitter out of service, and everyone relying on internet.
