@virginmedia Your agent told me 72hrs. But then I was also told if I post on the forum I will get support. But we can all see how that has panned out. Just. Fix. The. Problem. Why is this so difficult? I guess copy/paste apologies are just cheaper than dealing with the real issues.

@virginmedia Well since our exchange I’ve now been asked my problem and same security questions by an automated text bot 3 times with no actual response. Now the internet has just gone off again during the football. Think I’ll stop recommending @virginmedia to people now.

@virginmedia Still keeps going off. Has been like this for months now. Has gone off twice this evening. Can’t get hold of anyone. Self service goes in circles. Just need to speak to someone who will listen to the issue. It has to be network level. 2 engineers have confirmed our setup is fine.

@virginmedia I get that. But several people on there have logged issues. I haven’t used that tool but try it. But issue is defo at your end as between outages speed/latency is brilliant and other people have same issue on street. That’s why I’m so keen to fix not leave as usually gr8 service.

@virginmedia so am missing the football again - about the third time now in about 6 weeks. Engineers have replaced all cables and router but refuse to accept it’s a network issue. How do I actually progress this or speak to someone who cares?

@virginmedia Not being rude but I have explained it more than once to various people at Virgin media, who really can't come up with a solution and I feel that they're not really interested in doing so either, I feel as if I'm just another customer who is just not getting what I'm paying for😩

@virginmedia Just wondered if I’ve waited long enough yet for anyone @virginmedia to care enough to respond to me? Still no forum response. Still not complaint response. Still line issues. Just lies from your SM team.

@virginmedia utterly appalling service from Virgin Media. Internet completely down the other day and now problematic to say the least. Tried phoning earlier and gave up after half an hour. Just tried again and gave up after 35 mins. What has happened to the service? It’s awful

@virginmedia No not aware of status line please advise. No interest in community support forum. This is an issue with your service and equipment. Needs proper support.

@virginmedia what has happened to your customer service? I have been waiting since Wednesday evening for someone to reply ‘ as soon as possible’ about a fault. Currently on hold as usual on the phone. Is there anyone there at all!?

Working from home over the past few days has been so tricky,our expensive M100 fibre broadband has been so slow that I had to resort to using my 4 G , tonight is 5 th evening in a row on hold for over an hour #virginmedia please can you help ? Important NHS meetings tomorrow !

@virginmedia This is the exact problem. Your agents deny there is an issue in the area. A recent social media post revealed many people in our neighbourhood have the same issue. All your agents want to do is ‘send signals’ to our router and restart our router. Nobody taking issue seriously.

@virginmedia why are you ignoring my tweets on the other thread you started? On your advice been trying to get support over SMS but it just goes in a continuous loop of the same questions for 4 days?!! You also don’t answer your phone or live chat? How do I actually get help?

@virginmedia Still no response. 19 days and counting 🙄. It’s clear you’ve been lying to get rid of me. What are you going to do to resolve this issue before I contact ombudsman? A suggestion: you arrange for someone to contact me. By now it should be clear to you your support doesn’t work.

@virginmedia I don’t appreciate being put on hold for 40 minutes being charged for my call, then just cut off with no explanation! Your service over the past few months has been terrible, having to reboot WiFi every day to get internet & my bill has yet again gone up! 😡

@virginmedia Yes dropouts Ethernet and WiFi. To be clear that message was not our engineer. Just proof prob is beyond our home. That neighbourhood thread is 14 comments long! We’ve had 2 engineers out. Cable replaced and hub replaced. Problem persists. 4 dropouts this eve alone.

@virginmedia I think I've just done that, to be honest it always seems to be would I mind doing this or could I phone again or could I explain this again, how about virgin do something to fix the situation because last time I checked virgin employ people and pay those people

(@MPuredath) reported
@virginmedia I definitely will raise a complaint as well apart from this platform as both myself and husband have had to suddenly rush to office as no internet at home!! No prior notice was given , so would definitely need compensation for this distress and money spend on travel

@CarlDifford @virginmedia Exactly Mr Difford. Ours has been running at about 20mb for ages. Smart TV barely squeeks along and work's machine is slow due to server linkage. Hopefully the nice engineer can fix it!
