DragonFish ๐ฌ๐ง๐ช๐บ๐ฎ๐น (@discobabe76) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia 4/ I work from home so asked what can I do in the meantime? No help given. I asked to speak to a supervisor. Waited 15 mins to speak to Supervisor ( 45 mins total already spent on phone)..

rachel Wheelhouse ๐บ๐ฆ (@RWheelhouse1) reported from Chelmsford, England@virginmedia 6 days since moving to Virgin, we are having issues, the WiFi won't reach our outside cameras. After completing the troubleshooting guides + waiting for over an hour for a chat agent + 30 mins on the phone, we still haven't spoken to a human....not impressed
-
grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England@virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. โComputer says noโ. If you canโt see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. Iโm inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.

Paul Dwyer (@pauldee74) reported from Grays, England@virginmedia @YodelOnline again day 3 of waiting for package spoke on webchat kept getting told its coming today + check tracking but tracking saying was delivered yesterday! another day wasted and taken off work yodel please help! I just need to know its coming today and a time
-
Nancy S (@mizznansea) reported from Aveley, England@TracyWoodley4 @virginmedia @Virgin Their service has certainly gone down hill and this issue with the call centre is a complete farce. If they can't even get their own internal systems sorted as a telecomms company what hope do we have? My contract is up in March and I will defo be leaving Virgin.

Jay Bourley (@drummerJ83) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Hi, the VMGo app is telling me I need to upgrade to watch live tv but Iโve got the right package to have access and have until today watched live via the app. Is there an issue? Tried restarting it etc.

Dr Andrew Fleming ๐ฌ๐ง ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia I performed the reset, it still does not recognise the code. Very disappointed. On Wednesday I wasted 3 hours on the phone talking to 13 of your people one of whom brazenly told me to fix all issues I must buy an upgrade. I am sorry to say the whole experience is abysmal ๐

โ๏ธ๐ป๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฝ๐๐ฃ๐๐๐๐โ๏ธ (@NoddyMaccy) reported from Romford, England@virginmedia My phone is now over two weeks late, which isnโt an issue, I understand waiting for one to become available to send but to suggest I send this phone back and go without a phone until one eventually gets sent to me is just ridiculous. Iโm not gonna pay my bills with no phoneโฆ

Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England@virginmedia Sort it out Virgin ITโS NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!!!!! Canโt even log on to get service updates ๐ก๐ก๐ก
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia Iโve already raised a complaint. I spoke to someone in the Stage 2 complaints team who told me itโs being dealt with and, as already mentioned, a manager would call me back at 4.30 which didnโt happen. Can someone please sort this out?
-
Penny Rolfe nee Acres (@wonky1961) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia You are no longer my ISP due to your incompetence. Also there will be a lawsuit pending due to the fact I almost died from pneumonia with pulmonary oedema and sepsis later going into stage 2 respiratory failure. Your useless service is unacceptable.

Virgin Media Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Nottinghill Man (@nottinghillman) reported@virginmedia I think this has been reported now but our WiFi at W2 4TJ went down on Wednesday evening. A call out engineer the next the next morning merely confirmed that the problem is apparently on the street, not in our house as the engineer apparently thought initially. But no repair yet
-
Imran (@imran_khan404) reported@virginmedia Wifi is getting connected but it is showing "No internet access". I am not getting internet. Talk to your customer support multiple times.
-
Mel Brackenbury (@pixelpie80) reported@O2 I am having a lot of trouble getting into my account and im using my correct login email and I going round in circles. I have verified my email and then nothing happens. I was logged in until Virgin media joined.
-
Kris Coates (@FyldesHardest) reported@virginmedia please train your staff to do their job and not waste two hours of my time messaging three agents only for them not to resolve an issue. I just want to cancel, it's that simple.
-
iPaulTweeting (@iPaulTweeting) reportedHereโs an idea @virginmedia if the question your bots are asking have no relevance to the question you asked perhaps one of the options presented could be โtalk to a humanโ? Also, although Iโm not really that bothered that your support staff are not English please note that it does not aid understanding

Can I Have 2 Biscuits (@WillyWoollyman) reported@Alotron I'm never watching Bohs on Virgin Media again. I only expect that much bias when the commentate on Ireland matches.

A Dunlop Landscapes ๐ณโ๏ธ๐งฑ (@alanfdunlop) reported@ifeeltheneed_ Mine has been offline for the last two months, had an upgrade of virgin media that came with a new WiFi connection. That coincided with my surgery, managed to have the new hub up & running with some help but havenโt been able to access the solar inverter to reset so far.
