OMG forever having internet issues with #virginmedia even have my own direct line to an engineer.

@virginmedia Yes, I understand that issues happen, but it would be nice to know more than just “we’re currently having issues”. If someone told me “a bolt of lightning from that thunderstorm you had hit the cabinet and fried it” or something, we’d probably be a lot more understanding.

@virginmedia It’s been going on for months, I have had all new boxes and hub but it still goes down. I have been told to keep my local engineer up to date. There is nothing the help desk can do we have tried everything

It is beginning to look like @virginmedia have fraudulently sold us a package that was not available to me due to the many reasons that your various customer service team members mentioned before they hung up by putting me on “hold” and made me ring back...

@emmah1188 @virginmedia Completely incompetent. Customer service is unacceptable. Unable to give a ‘goodwill gesture’ as we’re not account holders despite having an account number, set up a direct debit and signing a contract.

@virginmedia I tried texting that number and got no answer. I just tried calling the helpline, was on hold for about 20 minutes, was asked for all my contact details and then your operator told me her system is down and I should call back in 2 hours!!

@virginmedia Our internet has been down completely since early this morning (not intermittently like the automated message is suggesting) and I still don’t know if it’s a problem in the area, or just our own property.

@virginmedia Both wired and not, advised to turn off and back on, diagnostics checked at your end, engineer visit, resulted in all new v6 boxes (x2) and a new internet hub also internal wiring checked and re-connected. Issue seemed to be resolved for a while but after then goes off altogether

@virginmedia new broadband routers now working, speeds dropped massively when I can get internet, tried for 14 minutes to get through to your customer service (being charged thanks for that) and can’t get access to my account as your team registered my email address wrong. Help!

never normally tweet about this stuff but can’t let this one go. just had the absolute worst customer service experience with @virginmedia. horrendously snappy, rude, and impatient (even sighed at having to deal with our problem!)

I s2g, Virgin Media’s boosters are SO awful
-
Rhys Morgan
(@rhysmorgan) reported
from
Cardiff, Wales
@virginmedia Keep having problems where, every few days or so, the booster loses connectivity with the base unit, resulting in it outputting no internet connection. On top of that, the speeds are less than half that of the main router (350 - 500 Mbps on our Hub vs 150 Mbps from booster)

As my @virginmedia bill is now creeping up towads 130pcm I called to cancel or negotiate. A small discount was offered. I was surprised how little effort was made to retain a customer. (‘OK, thank you for calling’). So I’ll have to switch.

@virginmedia Yes, I understand that. But after signing up to SMS updates four times via two methods, I’d expect to at least be receiving texts telling me that the fix times have been pushed back.

@virginmedia hey there been trying to get in contact with your complaints team for over an hour now regarding a second breach of data protection. After being in hold numerous times and then cut off can you give me any ideas how to contact them regarding this data protection issue

Cardiff, Wales
@virginmedia No, I didn’t get any estimates. Just a generic “we’re sorry you’re still having issues, our engineers are currently working on it but it’s taking longer than expected” (something along those lines at least).

(@stacey_davis1) reported
@virginmedia your customer service is shocking, I’ve been attempting to change my package since June and each month when the D/D is claimed it’s still for £139. Spent an hour on the phone to call centre staff who cut me off when transferring me to a member of the management team

@virginmedia I'd like to have an update on that process please and how much longer. I'd prefer not to be lied to as a standard. Also can you confirm you have received my complaint letter?
-

(@MelERoy) reported
@iwkya1 @virginmedia I have had intermittent service for 3 days - today no service at all. Spent 45 minutes on phone being told it was my equipment finally for someone to admit it's an area outage which they hope will be fixed by sometime tomorrow. I am now looking for another provider.
-

(@fox_box22) reported
@virginmedia From my letter which I sent to your complaints department. I also just filled another complaint and listed the issued I've had. I'd like this complaint to not just get filled as resolved until the work is complete and I can access the Internet.

@virginmedia If I lose my job which is very possible because of your shoddy service will you pay my bills? I am reporting you to Ofcom.

@virginmedia If you can resolve this and arrange for someone to come and properly solve the issue I am available for webchat

(@MelERoy) reported
@virginmedia The technician td me you KNEW the problem was not my equipment but because you are lazy and/or incompetent you did not refresh your service updates for the past 3 days, I guess you were all in mourning for a stranger when people like me still have to work.
-
M
(@MelERoy) reported
@CBLG7 @virginmedia It's not your hub. Virgin Media is not sending a strong enough signal to your hub for you to have service. It is their fault. Demand compensation, report to Ofcom and change provider.

(@MelERoy) reported
@virginmedia @iwkya1 Online says no issues but I just spoke to your technical dept who said there has been an issue for 3 days and only now you're trying to fix it and that your service update is BS. Lying to your cus to get them to book £25 service visits. Reporting you frauds to Ofgem!

(@dabe1971) reported
@virginmedia Yep. All checked an no issues reported. We've tried another corded handset and it's the same issue. No dialling tone. It's definitely something wrong with your service I'm afraid.
