Keg Man Plays (@Kegmanplays) reported from Ipswich District, EnglandHaving a couple of Internet issues because @virginmedia think that 0.18mbps is a fine speed for the Internet. Hopefully a router reset will resolve this... And then I'm live
-
Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England@virginmedia I was supposed to get texts telling me what was going on. Instead I have had to do the chasing. My system is still not working.
-
Matt Smith (@matt40k) reported from Ipswich District, EnglandOk so, virgin media router kinda sucks, if I use the Bt SmartHub 2, it would basically just be a Wi-fi access point, so would need a like a rpi for dhcp Or I could just buy a google nest Wi-fi or something ubiquiti
-
Andrew Everson (@j2kadd1) reported from Ipswich District, England@virginmedia Yeah default =tab, it may be normal for you but not any other provider or router manufacturer. Clearly no point in complaining about a terrible user experience I will just have to buy a router and put yours into the modem mode (which it will probably lose after a update)

¢σℓℓєттє ℓуηη мσσяє♥ (@ColletteLynn_) reported from Great Horkesley, England@Howard_Norton @Virgin I haven’t even managed to get through to @virginmedia yet despite multiple attempts and long holds to even comment on their actual customer service. The fact they are trying to charge me for something I have cancelled and haven’t used is beyond the joke already! #poorservice

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

John Munro (@Munro78) reported@virginmedia Got an email saying my contract expires soon. Taking my payments from £73.50 to £137.50 - I can’t seem to find any new deals that would bring my payments down to what my original contract was. Unless I become a new member and you charge £49.99. This can’t be right?

Irate_Jobbie (@Irate_Jobbie) reported@AwTroon Many, many years ago, I called virgin media to tell them I was leaving. They asked why, I said you don't offer value for money anymore. Sorry you're leaving but that is the best price, you already have. It was expensive. No problem, bye now. Next day, virgin cold calls me. Asks me to confirm who I am. I said no, you are calling me, you should know. Guy was annoyed as he was phoning to offer me a better deal. I said fine, I'll call the same retentions team I called yesterday to leave and I'll know it's actually virgin. He got angry, said they can't offer discounts, only he could and if I didn't confirm my details, he couldn't give me the offer. I just told him I could no longer do business with virgin due to such poor security procedures. He seemed very angry about the fact I wasn't willing to give personal identifiable information to a stranger cold calling me. Never paid them a penny again.

Ed Jones (@edujones14) reported@Johnty14 @virginmedia Better than when they came to my house. I’m not a customer but they still came while I was out and dug up plants in my front garden to access connecting services I didn’t ask for. Then refused any contact with me afterwards due to not being a customer!
