@virginmedia I’m at work. I couldn’t therefore tell you. However, the issue is with your router, it’s not fit for purpose. It constantly reboots because it has a bug

@virginmedia I wrote a letter of complaint about the state the road was left outside my house after your works putting new cable in. I’ve had 1 reply advising I would be contacted. I’m still waiting from December 2018. Can you give me any contact details where I will get a reply.

@virginmedia 100s of times total waste of time, set questions & set answers just because they see the speed, they think it is good enough, you charge top rate for crap service especially the router, £500 a year with a £10 cheap router.

@sinners40 @virginmedia As soon as I saw an engineer messing about with the service box in front of my house, I knew I'd be in trouble. Supposed to be a upgrade to my service. Going well isn't it!

Just literally had the best conversation with a guy called Adam from the @virginmedia cancellations team. Called up to cancel my TiVo box and ended up signing up for another package but also having a proper good 20 minute convo with him about life, like I’ve known him years😂

@virginmedia I ran the fault test this morning and it picked nothing up. It’s always abysmally slow at weekends but today is worse than ever.

Aman
(@Aman_Dhesi) reported
@virginmedia It’s in all rooms. Even the room with the router in. The light on the router is red. So that might be a problem. I did mention it to customer services but they don’t seem to care.

(@Eddie_Vermeer) reported
@virginmedia I've tried that each time. The last person I spoke to said that in the call centre, only the technical team and pre install team were left in the office. It was just after 2000 local time in South Africa where she was based. She couldn't find any other team to help.
-
Eddie Vermeer
(@Eddie_Vermeer) reported
@virginmedia So no one knows the answer to my questions, which I don't think are unreasonable, and I'm going to be left in the lurch. So what now? As a customer, it's not a great feeling to be left high and dry.

Steven
(@Steven89899687) reported
@virginmedia So you can provide terrible service , and the customer can do nothing when they wish to cancel ? You still insist they pay a disconnection fee that equates to the remainder of the contract ?
-
Eddie Vermeer
(@Eddie_Vermeer) reported
@virginmedia If it is, then what do I need to be asking to get an answer? I've explained the issue, the questions, but despite their best efforts, they've all said they don't know. They even tried asking the retentions team. No joy.

@virginmedia @RifatJawaid *warning* trying to cancel with non native speakers over the phone took an hour tonight. Pretty sure it was deliberate and wilful miscommunicationo thier part (incentivised). I'd stick to WhatsApp if I were you 🤯

@virginmedia The issue with the blocker on my line was removed but is still intermittent with loading. Last comms was with the engineer visit who removed the blocker last Tuesday
