@virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.

@virginmedia We got the first bill, the customer service guy was still answering my calls and he promised we wouldn’t be charged for TV. We were! Our next bill still has TV on and he is not replying to emails, texts or voicemails. One of the reasons we agreed to switch was personal service

And the 4th time today everything has gone down. How am I meant to run a medical company control room when my Internet keeps dropping out? @virginmedia are you going to pay the company for loss of income which is being suffered? Or me for that matter.....

@virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

@virginmedia how do we get the new wifi extender pods or a new Virgin Hub? Our wifi signal and speed changes dramatically between the front and back of the house, the coverage is dreadful

@virginmedia Yeah that’s fine, or just a phone number / person to deal with? It’s my parents business and they have their property engineers coming out to view the issue on Monday. I assume they will be in touch themselves regarding the issues. Luckily it’s just rain water, and not sewage.

@virginmedia We discussed the Oomph package which I initially agreed to then changed my mind within the 14 days, informed the customer service guy, by phone, text and email, he said he would cancel. The engineer came and documented that TV had been refused and therefore didn’t install

I think very soon I'll be saying 👋 to @ThreeUK and 🤝 to @virginmedia...over the last couple of years, the signal has got increasingly worse. I have just bought a new phone, but the problem persists...really unhappy.

@vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Turns out, the email was an automated mistake. Though I now need one, because there's no vm access point on the property, something your staff refused to believe me about. This has been an utterly terrible experience, and I will now have no connection to work with.

@virginmedia I have just got off the phone and was advised to keep my WiFi switched off my smart TV as a solution to the connection issues. I just had my connection drop three times In a 30min zoom call this morning, I had two engineers out I’ve had a new modem and nothing has fixed it

@virginmedia It was dead. Both wired and WiFi. Happily, was only out about half an hour. Checking various sites that people report these things, seems was a problem for a good few. But still happens too often

Be Great.

@virginmedia How will I know ‘if’ the criteria hits and when will I be compensated? Because I’m expecting a swift resolution to this after all this stress and disruption
-
Steven Scott
(@daft_titch) reported
@virginmedia The account hasn’t been paid since April. This makes no sense. Apparently £141.99 is overdue. The monthly cost of this service is £74. If payments hadn’t been made since April then surely more than 141.99 would be due.

.@virginmedia FIFTH day of intermittent TV and broadband signal and now your call centre has just put the phone down on me whilst in a queue for 30 mins! AWFUL!!!

(@RoseyMacdoo) reported
@virginmedia Yes there was a screenshot in the tweet that followed. This happened 9 days ago too but that time I was able to register the loss of service on my account online so that automatic compensation could be applied automatically if applicable. That facility seems to have gone/moved?

@RomanShortall I've never had one, I refuse to get one. I don't use cable tv, my contract is with virgin Media, Netflix etc, RTE should be pay per view, or it shut down
