Aran Dove (@adove109) reported from Stevenage District, England
@virginmedia Hi, so atleast once a week my internet stops working... I’ve done the usual reboot etc. Last time I rang up because I’ve had enough of it, especially with my package going form £28 to £43. When I rang the technician done some kind of reboot to help stop this problem.

@VisctFishpond @virginmedia I had similar problems to you; got the runaround from Virgin. Lots of research done and the issue is almost certainly the router. You can buy a third-party router and turn the virgin router into a modem. Solved all my problems. Worth a try.

@Lindzell_LFC @virginmedia It’s their router. All the calls in the world won’t change the problem. You can buy a new router abs connect it to the Virgin one. Worked for me.

@StMirrenDaft @virginmedia @mat_fraser One of the key issues is their router. It’s rubbish and has programming which means main signal isn’t direct for WiFi. I had this problem; buy another router and turn Virgin one into modem. It solved my problem.

Phyllis Charles (@flissaggie) reported from Luton, England
@virginmedia been trying to speak to someone about my contract been fobbed off ' our system is down' or ' I will call back' still waiting!!!

Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England
@virginmedia You do realise that the majority of messages sent to you are people complaining that your Wi-Fi is very poor? So perhaps concentrate on that for existing clients rather than pushing new sales? Poor router is the issue. #slowerfaraway

Andrew Morgan (@AndrewMorgan64) reported from Stevenage District, England
@virginmedia the worst customer service I have experienced and what a rude person Sidney was and she would not transfer us to complaint department

Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England
@AdamDea29742908 @virginmedia But buying one between £50 and £200 will probably suit most and if it turns out it doesn’t solve your problems it hasn’t broken the bank. I went for an Asus one at about £120. Netgear is another strong brand. I had poor WiFi for years and it was a massive improvement. 2/2

@virginmedia 1/2 been on the phone for over an hour on hold waiting for customer service - finally get through and the customer service rep cuts me off before I even say what I want...
-
Jason Flynn 💙 (@jasondflynn) reported from Letchworth Garden City, England
@virginmedia @mouthwaite Hi John; just jumping in on this. You really need to start advising customers properlyit doesn’t matter how many technicians visit it won’t solve the problem of the poor standard router and your default settings.

Su Felce (@swimmingsu) reported from Cardington, England
So frustrated with @virginmedia spend over an hour on hold only to be cut off by their customer service rep #whatcustomerservice #frustrated #zerocustomerservice

Mike Desborough (@mjdes) reported from Stevenage District, England
Hi @virginmedia I have to wait 72 hours to speak to a manager about an issue. This is after 5 hours on the phone to you and only a manager can authorise what I need. Shocking considering the amount of money we pay you. We have no working broadband for a 2 key worker house

Susan Bailey (@SusanBailey63) reported from Stevenage District, England
@virginmedia what do I have to do to actually be able to communicate with you? Been trying since the beginning of January to no avail - calls unanswered, messages and emails ignored. If I cancel my direct debit today maybe you’ll soon respond 😡

-
dan@randrhotrodimports (@Dan_lutonbear) reported from Luton, England
@virginmedia do you actually have humans employed at your call centres ? After spending a total of 6 hours going from one recorded message to a automated line I have given up. I have absolutely had enough of your lack of customer service poor service poor quality broadband

@virginmedia internet down, rang service number. HUB fine, now been told to wait 24hrs. Why is it going to take 24hrs, also why does your broadband status say there are no know issues when clearly there is.

Sen 🌻 (@tailsinge) reported
Virgin Media doing work that takes the internet down, during work hours from 9-3, without notification. Its not like a ton of people work from home at this point!! Worst UK ISP honestly.
-
jiggy jai (@j1ggy_j) reported
@virginmedia Also what you forgot to mention is that if I call the 0345 number from a virgin landline it’s chargeable. Which I found out at my own expense. These issues were previously reported. What more am I ment to do ? Your company has really dragged me down.

John Ogden (@John_Ogden) reported
Hey @virginmedia if there are no issues in my area, why don’t I have internet & why are there 2 virgin media guys ripping cables out the box on the street? 😡🤬

@virginmedia What’s the point of providing a Twitter service if you are then unable to have the right people check/report potential system issues which affect your company’s income?
