@virginmedia All of our WiFi appliances stopped working at the exact same time. The WiFi keeps trying to connect but just whirls and whirls. No issues with our appliances

@virginmedia We have broadband but no WiFi. Rang customer services on Thursday lunchtime to be told that although nothing shows up in the service checker it' known fault and should be back today, now it's almost two days without WiFi, just want update from someone who knows what's happening

@virginmedia You’ve now sent me the same unhelpful link about compensation 3 times. This will only compensate me if I have no service, and as I have a service (albeit 3mbps) this, as I’ve repeated several times, doesn’t help me. Another example of poor customer service

@virginmedia I’ve now been told that there is no complaints team, despite the fact I spoke to them earlier. How is it possible to be so poor?

@virginmedia Think it's more to do with the upgrade work then; when I select Help from the Help & Settings menu, the screen goes blank. I'm thinking it needs a network connection to work. Any plans for a Hub with built in 02 sim to increase connectivity? Currently hot spotting my phone.

@virginmedia I tried again today. After faffing with phone, then faulty website, and back to phone, I eventually found a very helpful assistant who managed to convince me to stay; happily. It was close though, as much room for improvement. Please sort out your customer services & website.

@virginmedia Terrible service from you these last two weeks! I have spent more than 4hrs on the phone to Asian based O2, and Virgin call centres who never help or process things. Also Capita in South Africa… Why do you use foreign call centres if they cannot do the job!!

@virginmedia I’ve already raised a complaint. I spoke to someone in the Stage 2 complaints team who told me it’s being dealt with and, as already mentioned, a manager would call me back at 4.30 which didn’t happen. Can someone please sort this out?

@virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

@thorogodies @Missbwattie @virginmedia We don’t have many problems with ours, surprised you do, as you’re only round the corner, must be a box problem.

@virginmedia No, the issue is that our service was accidentally disconnected. We are waiting for it to be reconnected but it’s taking a long time, and we all work from home

@ROBERT_24__ @virginmedia ok. do you ever think maybe because of this pandemic its been hard to get through to them or why they haven't replied. Like many companies I am sure they have been very busy & with everyone on phones internet calling texting etc I am sure you arent the only one with a problem

@virginmedia I noticed you just ignored the part about knocking off part of my bill for lack of service? So my bill will be paid when I decide I can be bothered or I might just go to @SkyUK their just as bad but this is shocking people need Internet right now as always vm are a let down.

Recently fitted @virginmedia Ultimate Oomph @virginmedia & described house to sales person who assured me it'd work throughout house. But weak signal & zero wifi in study - tried all reset etc options & now directed to "upgrade" to Ultimate Oomph to get boosters at £11 pm extra!

@virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp @VirginMediaNews ... cut off! This is absolutely horrendous. We were told you’ve known about the outage since November. We signed up in December so you knew we would have no internet when we signed up! We are so so disappointed 🤬🤬🤬🤬
