@virginmedia It’s not a good enough response. You’re providing a sub bar service and yet I’m still paying my bill in full. I expect a discount until the matter is resolved.

@virginmedia There is no weak signal. I’ve checked all around the house repeatedly. There are no faults in the area. I have checked repeatedly. Customer services have been unhelpful on multiple calls. Had to fight to get an upgraded hub!

@virginmedia Yes, security cameras, nest heating, hue bulbs. Less frequently. But still happens. Everything works for a while then something or several things stop. Never everything. We have entirely re-set everything once, which takes hours to sort and is not an answer.

@virginmedia Yes tried that and just called ur CS centre. Once again the person who took the call couldn’t care less. This is the 2nd time this month it’s gone down without any explanation or compensation

@virginmedia obviously massive problems!! All services down for 2 days, now reinstalled but they've deleted my Sent box on their server so I can't email documents, badly affects work and no technical support. They just cut out and hang up!!!

@virginmedia Okay. Just that Twitter asked me to sign into it and results would give you access. Thanks for clarification...just really dont understand why I have to go to a forum to get tech support for an error Virgin has made.

@virginmedia Hi, thanks for getting back to me. All my VM services were down in past 48 hours. Now restored. BUT you seem to have deleted my Sent Box from Virgin email Server. I had 2 sent boxes, but the one deleted is the major one synced to my Windows 10 so can't send imp work documents!!

@virginmedia why sell us a package when you do not have the correct infrastructure in place! 30 minutes on hold today, I’m giving up. We didn’t have these issues with Sky.

@virginmedia No. It’s usually just one of the connected devices we lose at a time. Most often speakers but sometimes security cameras, sometimes hue bulbs. Never everything at once.

@virginmedia Yes it does. Apparently there is a known issue in the area and it won’t be fixed until 12 tonight. This is not good enough

@virginmedia I have a technician coming on Tues to replace SuperHub but need specific technical support to restore Sent box on PC. Windows say object not found error Ox8004010F. VM techs used to help in past at level 2 or 3. Now it's impossible to get past level 1 tech support.

@virginmedia Literally three years of the same inconsistency. And appalling customer service when you speak to anyone. There is nothing you have done or will do to improve this. As soon as I can get a decent speed from another local company I’ll be gone.

@virginmedia The link you provide is entirely not the problem. We’ve had the same issue for 2 years. It doesn’t stop being a problem. And every time we contact someone about it, we get the same advice because there’s no continuation. Please read the message chain if you’re going to reply.

@virginmedia My computer guy HAS looked at your forum. We know what the problem is but it needs technical support your end to fix it. It would take the right person 2 mins but we cant get past your incredibly poor customer service to get any kind of tech support. So stressful & frustrating.

Looool. Virgin Media down again. Go to put our postcode in to see if service is affected in Redditch & apparently it's not a valid postcode. At least for a week every night the internet has gone down for about 20 minutes. Not the end of the world of course but a tad frustrating.

@virginmedia for the past 2 weeks our broadband has dropped repeatedly, four or five times a day. The service status checker advises a fault and engineers are attempting to resolve, but it continues. Patience is wearing thin. Can you tell me who I can escalate this to please.

@virginmedia I have tried raising a complaint and it was just simply closed without any further action. Looks like I will have to go to Ofcom to raise a complaint and seek compensation.

@virginmedia When you call, an automated voice tells you it's sending you a link via text nessage to pay online then cuts you off. In a few words...its an absolute bag of shite of a service!!!

@virginmedia is there a number for a department where the staff listen to your problem, or just the generic number where you're disconnected and fed spin constantly?
