Been on hold to Virgin Media for over 30 mins. Internet has been so intermittent for months and this week is the worst I've ever known it. Impossible for me to WFH with it like this. Missing deadlines and not able to speak to service users. Beyond frustrating.

@virginmedia Yep. Checked all that, used the app and it says everything is great. I called the customer service line yesterday and it said it needed to send something down the line but nothing happened.

@virginmedia Do you not understand it is absolutely nothing to do with speed? It's the constant outages! Pretty easy to work out how that is useless to me. Also, yet another outage with fix time tomorrow. Pls don't reply with another useless generic response as they are no help at all.

@virginmedia For months and months on end my WiFi has been in and out like the hokey bloody cokey. I've downloaded the signal check app and it tells me signal is great when it's clearly not. Trying my best to work from home but this is causing me unwelcome stress.

@virginmedia yet another broadband install cancelled at the last minute. Spent 10’s of hours trying to speak to somebody and today I was assured that the service would be connected. Despicable company. Blame COVID all you like, but you’re just completely useless. OFCOM claim!!

@virginmedia are honestly useless! Rang with the same issue I think 12 times each time they tell me there isn’t an issue, like I’ve got time to ring and tell them issues that aren’t there! I’m tempted to just cancel my direct debit and go to sky

@virginmedia How about I just pay when you fix all the issues? I’m sure that if I don’t fulfil my terms of the contract regards to payment you will disconnect me but you are ok to not provide me with internet or TV services that I pay for

@virginmedia Thank you, but there is no point. I’ve spoken to 6 people who have all either lied or said they can’t help. Would be grateful to know why your company records calls but then refuses to listen to them though? Thanks

@virginmedia is there anything wrong with your services in Altrincham area? It’s been 36 hours of intermittent issues with broadband (fiber). Service status says everything is fine but laptops and phones are dropping off connections..

@virginmedia Thank you for pointing out what I already knew about my contract. Do you not have a response in relation to the actual issue?... The shocking service, & the obvious reason why an unhappy customer lacks any real desire to continue being a customer? Irregardless of the increase.

Virgin broadband down yet again! 4 months of the absolute worst service I've ever endured. Yet @virginmedia expect me to continue with them on the day of a massive price increase. I'd phone them, but don't really care for waiting an hour to get through for the 20th time #Yay2021

@virginmedia Guys, this is happening again today and is worse than its ever been. There HAS to be something wrong with either the router or the cable, as I've done everything in my power to fix it. This is making my job impossible to do and I'm suffering with falling behind because of it

@RabnawazA @virginmedia Yes my partners zoom meetings crash even though we got a 300 Mb line the Wi-Fi signal is not that great and we got boosters what we tend to do is use mobile data for the rest of us but we are in the fortunate situation that we can

@virginmedia I’ve got 3 separate issues! Nobody cares, I can’t use live chat coz that Isn’t working either! I’ve not had a stable connection for 24 hours, when it’s normally working I have to sit next to the router because the range is like 20 cm so I can’t use internet in any other room

@virginmedia No good. Comes up with a message “oops, Our Bad” like you’re done kind of American teen drama. Still going call up and talk to someone who might be able to walk me through it.

@virginmedia hi guys, my service is stating that there are network issues but no resolution...can you offer some additional info..?

@virginmedia Except when they give you a lesser speed than you’re paying for confirm that in writing saying you can leave when you want to... but forget to offer a rebate on the money you’ve paid for a lesser service tantamount to fraud, charging for a service you are not receiving?

@virginmedia Been a Virgin customer for 20 years. Moved home in Nov to an area where they can’t operate so forced to use another supplier. All other utilities, council etc gave us rebates when we moved. But not Virgin. Still insisting on a £220 early canx fee.
