@virginmedia What’s your customer service telephone number? Can’t find one anywhere. Don’t want a “Message Bot” - I want a human to sort out our problem. Wife’s a GP trying to provide patient care from home -can’t because of broadband problems. Don’t tell me to reset the router!!

@virginmedia That status page states there are no issues, the issues are apparently the walls in my house and my neighbours electrics even though it's been fine for the last 18 months

@virginmedia I’ve hung up because you can’t hear them due to noise but it’s a known issue ! Very very poor once again

@virginmedia Clearly not as the issue keeps coming back after multiple engineer fixes outside AND in my home. You're lying through your teeth and leaving me in the dark literally. Stop hiding behind "standard business" replies, be human and help me.
-

(@MaartenSleeckx) reported
@virginmedia Well, you wouldn't because you haven't shown any care for my existing, long-standing problem. You're also not qualified for it likely, so instead, I will wait for the engineer you're sending in about 2 weeks and hope I don't kill myself by then. We'll take it from there. Bye.

@virginmedia I rang them 14 times yesterday (while working) and haven’t been able to speak to a manager. The line quality of your offshore call centres is horrific. Managers are too busy to discuss my issue. I have zero appetite to ring or engage with VM further. Cancelling my direct debit

@virginmedia I shouldn't have to call up and waste another 30 mins plus of my time. I've already called and get nowhere with your customer teams I would appreciate a DM and someone making more of an effort. You have illegally taken money without giving me chance to hand equipment back.

@virginmedia I had 1.5 hour call with nice lady who discovered original engineer never authorised our router. But that didn’t solve it. Another engineer coming today. Third time lucky, perhaps!!! So..3 trips, 4 hours on the phone, many hours wait and many without services. Bad look, Virgin.

@virginmedia What sort of issues are you having that is taking forever to fix. I depend on internet to work and for few days now, I have not been able to work. What is the real issue?

(@MaartenSleeckx) reported
@virginmedia The fact the engineers keep coming back over and over again would suggest there is an issue they are unable to handle or repair. If you have been advised of an outage, by a consumer, who diligently explained the issue isn't new you should pay more attention to what he said. Me.
