    @virginmedia again really???? I just signed up to a flipping contract and broadband goes down again! Worst mistake. Should have went with another provider. My Plex and my security system is down. Thanks for nothing virgin. 🤬🤬🤬

    So @virginmedia wifi down in SW18 2 for the third time this week. Don’t ask me to check your status dashboard, this happens EVERY week. It’s a constant, systemic issue, please get an engineer to come out & look at local box. Paying £130/month for terrible service, fuming 🤮😡

    @virginmedia Okay, no problem. I'll give you guys a call during the week then and ask about it.

    @virginmedia Is there an outage in SW4? I checked the online status on your webpage, but it says there are no issues and yet I do not have internet at home.

    @virginmedia Why is it taking so long for an engineer to genuinely fix the issue?

    Hi @virginmedia, are there problems in the SW17 area? Your service status page isn't loading.

    @virginmedia It’s been terrible since early June. Yes I have tried wired and wireless. There was an issue in the area that was ‘fixed’ a few days ago but nothing has changed. 4 people have come to the house and ‘fixed’ the issue. No change. I have work to do.

  • MiaZagica
    Baltazarka (@MiaZagica) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia Never had we have such a terrible Internet service. Absolutely NEVER. "Can't find server.", for whatever page we want, day after day. Then it finds the server; next minute - puff! Gone! Absolutely abysmal.

    @virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.

    There’s a new Hitron Chita paperweight from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - it’s expensive but the only thing it can do without going out of service every few minutes

    Hey @O2 just struggled down to the shopping centre to take advantage of the @GreggsOfficial free hot drink & treat offer, via my @virginmedia account, (available until 0000 tomorrow apparently) but got here, and offers have disappeared from app or come up as ‘sold out’ 🤬🤬🤬🤬

    @virginmedia this is getting ridiculous now! What’s happening with your service again today!!! Trying to watch on @BBCiPlayer and it buffers every 30 seconds!! Can’t watch anything and accessing websites including your own is so painful #virginmediadown #virginmedia

    @virginmedia How does £8.40 a day cover 2 people unable to work for a full day? Still no contact from Virgin engineer or any comment on what the issue is? The time to fix the issue just keeps getting later.

    @virginmedia hub still down in SW8 region. Box and hub are on. Ran tests everything fine. Can see WiFi to connect to, but not devices can connect. This started after last nights midnight update it seems.

    Appalling from @virginmedia today! The whole network in shambles today, no one working from has been able to do anything! Just spent 40 minutes listening to Footlose in their phone queue and as I got to the front, they put the phone on me! Absolute shambles!

    @virginmedia worst experience with a utility provider in the UK. Back in June I let them know I am moving address. The agent I spoke with told me I don’t need to book an appointment and I can just take my equipment with me and connect it in the new place. I was surprised by 1

    @virginmedia I have had replies from a bot but impossible to speak to the agent. I will put a formal complaint if I don’t hear from an agent.

    @virginmedia hi. Can you advise why my internet is so poor at 5 York House Leeds LS28 5DE?

  • WolfofX
    Wolf of X (@WolfofX) reported

    In 2003, Stan Beaton lost his wife, Ruby, to stomach cancer. Before she passed away, she had recorded the voicemail greeting for their home telephone. It was an ordinary message to anyone else, but to Stan it became the last recording of her voice. For more than a decade, he kept that voicemail safe. He even stayed with the same phone company because he feared changing providers might erase it. Whenever he missed Ruby, he would call his own home just to hear her say, "Sorry, at the moment, Stan and Ruby are not available..." For him, those few seconds were enough to bring her close again. Then, in December 2014, a network upgrade accidentally deleted the recording. Stan was heartbroken. He later said it felt like losing his wife all over again. Believing there was nothing left to lose, he contacted Virgin Media and asked if there was any way to recover it. What followed was something no one expected. Eleven telecommunications engineers spent three days searching through backup systems for a single deleted audio file. They described it as looking for a needle in a haystack, but they refused to give up. They found it. Instead of simply returning the recording, BBC Radio Leeds arranged a surprise during an interview with Stan. As Ruby's familiar voice filled the room once again, he broke down in tears. "That's her. Wonderful. Wonderful." The company later gave Stan permanent copies of the recording on a CD so he would never have to fear losing it again. It wasn't just a recovered voicemail. It was the return of the last words he could still hear from the woman he loved, a voice that had waited silently for years until someone cared enough to bring it back.

    @trapdoor456 @virginmedia Yes, we’ve got it and I’ve found it way faster, and more reliable than Sky. Haven’t had to go through customer services yet, so can’t comment on that. 12 months in and not even had to reset the router.

    @virginmedia what an awful service New customer and already regretting it Along pops engineer 1 on 22nd to install the service Oh can't do that mate, we need to call out the street team, they will be there Wednesday

    I was told I would get £40 credit on my account for poor service but it had not been taken away from my bill,instead ypu have stated that I owe £40 from last month instead. Lying again. @virginmedia

  • viewfromhk
    Robby Yung ⦿⦿⦿ (@viewfromhk) reported

    @0xsachi I think "moat" is just a polite way of saying monopoly. First mover advantage builds a brand and customer stickiness, and I think this should be the goal, personally. But all these anti-competitive practices like making cancelling services ridiculously hard (hello @virginmedia ) or walling the garden once you get enough users (hello @facebook Open Graph) should be cracked down on, in my opinion.

    @virginmedia You close a call and open a new one without resolution. That’s how you avoid @Ofcom ratings
