@benedictsf @virginmedia @skytv @BT That’s good but I have had nothing but issues with sky broadband in the past! Touch wood apart from today I haven’t had any issues with BT for 18months

Please @virginmedia learn from the banks and offer your customers the option to pause services or waive cancellation charges for people losing their jobs. £80 to take TV off my plan after 15 years as a customer is not helpful

@lisaculling @virginmedia They’ve broken one big f-off sized cable and are installing another one. Not a small job but even then I ended up with a leaking ducting by then yesterday.

@virginmedia Whether broadband is a utility or not is a point of view. From my perspective, it’s a utility. I accept no supplier can guarantee service. VM may be just be on an unlucky streak. Your service is presently not something I trust - based on current experience.

@virginmedia You didn’t mention the refund that Virgin Media clients should be getting. Reputational damage is one thing, but unless these repeated service outages cost your shareholders money, things won’t improve.

@virginmedia I don’t think you understand do you!! not just surrounding areas, this is misinformation and is causing your customers 30miles away from Southampton to waste time checking with work it support, windows it support, and pissing about with their routers because your not honest

@virginmedia Right this second, no. But it’s becoming clear that I cannot rely upon the service. It really is a utility. My water, gas & electricity all seem to run smoothly but not my broadband service. It is very frustrating.

Are you joking @virginmedia broadband down again, this is at least the 3rd time in a few weeks.. and started before everyone started working at home..

thanks @virginmedia I don’t have a working service as you say I have a bill to pay. According to the records next bill payment is due 04/05 but because your new installation charges are so high I’ve gone over the credit limit.

@virginmedia @ceasuri_rele This is happening too often now. After the recent outage debacle this is simply not acceptable. Please confirm that all customers in the affected areas will be receiving financial compensation.

I actually spoke to the #virginmedia engineer who had to fix the fibres in Southampton the other week. A utilities company had cut through them down by the roundabout at the end of the M271 he said. Up all day doing that of which was done by another company!

@virginmedia I called 31st March and was told they will look into it and call me back on Saturday which they didn’t. Complaint too long to say over Twitter, internet not working, waiting on a new cable to be installed for 3 months
-
Stephanie Scicluna
(@StephanieScicl3) reported
@virginmedia Still no update, 28 days have past. No record of complaint online, still no communication and internet still does not work. Your still taking your monthly direct debit. Shocking customer service

@virginmedia I've already been sent around the loop with that page several times. Even when my connection is down, it says there isn't a problem. Can you please arrange an engineer visit?

(@jakkimagee) reported
@virginmedia After 30 mins of going round in circle. Person on the end of the phone finally booked engineer but absolutely ridiculous. Even though I told him what the issue was he wouldn't listen and wanted to to through troubleshooting issues even though I explained the issue.

@virginmedia Was on the phone to BPO for 42 mins then your team on the number you provided. Put through to the collections team who kindly put the phone down on me. What shall I do now?

(@jazz_hearts_TA) reported
@virginmedia So far this has been less than helpful. It would help greatly if there was the option to speak to a human through the customer service number as the automated voice just did the same thing I've already done hundreds of times to then just end the call
