@virginmedia And it has just cut out again and your bot via the number above just said restart the router and put the phone down on me. Slightly concerned that it lasted 5 days again and decided to come back to disconnecting?

@lxwissssss @MartinEdition @virginmedia Mine is excellent once they replaced the wiring because it was old and now mine never goes off and it’s super fast! The English call centres are great but the Indian and Philippines ones are really bad I avoid them because they just read off scripts!

@virginmedia @virginmedia service from you has been poor for months - missing the footie is just the last straw. Kindly send an engineer to fix our broadband - the wires at the wall outside are exposed and when we test each day our speeds are below 20MB/s when we are paying for 100+ Thank you

. @virginmedia rang virgin last week to move house. You've done the external install yesterday but haven't turned up for internal install today. Tried to log into my account and it says my package is cancelled no options for support at all. Called and hung up on before answer.

@BBCRedButton I don't think your red button service is working on @virginmedia. It's brings up the iPlayer but no live stuff like the springwatch webcams

@virginmedia I called the help line and a bot told me to restart my router twice and then proceeded to end the call. Little fed up

@virginmedia Then when transferred to ‘customer care’ so that I could complain and seek compensation, I waited another 20mins and was eventually cut off without speaking to anyone.

@virginmedia Thanks for reply. Problem was that no agent ever responded to move requests via the bot. I sat for 1hr on the phone last night and finally got it booked. If the bot had worked 1st time I’d be switched on when I move. Now I’ll be without service for a week. Not good when wfh!

What an absolute farce @virginmedia are. Pay a ridiculous amount each month for slow broadband that regularly doesn’t work. Now on to a second day with no service and TiVo is also down. Pathetic.

@virginmedia Can someone DM me a proper email address? Or a free phone number. I'm afraid I don't trust Virgin to reimburse me. I can't afford to spend anymore money on this. Do I need a new hub? Surely you've seen other people having similar issues today

@virginmedia I'm also still owed £5 from when I closed my account over a month ago. This wasn't a complaint, just what was due to me when we closed the account...
