@virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...

@virginmedia If you forgot your pin your bank would send a replacement through the post. Please arrange for a way to cancel this account that does not cause further distress.

@virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.

@virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

@virginmedia next to useless support over the last 2 days trying to explain to your technical department what packet loss is! In the 40 mins it takes, the packet loss and speed has gone back to normal.

@virginmedia I’m currently on hold. My mum is in her 70’s and waited in for an engineer only for them to send a text 10mins before to say you were coming in the 26th. The original appointment was the 21st and her TV service has been down for well over a week.

@virginmedia Yep … although according to your website there isn’t, and hasn’t been since 7 last night. And fix my broadband just loops constantly to that page.

(@GregorJClark) reported
@virginmedia I have no service at all in KA11 area. Weirdly your website says it’s a planned outage. If planned, why didn’t you tell anyone? I’m working from home but could have gone into the office if I’d had some advance warning. Not good at all.

Chris O'Neill
(@chris_oneill94) reported
@virginmedia As I explained in live chats previous tweets and to the engineer it's an intermittent fault that happens. For instance right now the WiFi is fine. But it very regularly cuts out entirely as in that photo. I need a solution I can't have daily cuts. Not dips in speed, cuts.

@virginmedia Yes it says my service is down. The same as last Wednesday. This doesn't help me with WFH! It has been down since the middle of the night!

@virginmedia On the phone for 40 minutes and you callers dumped the call. My 80 year old mother with dementia has no phone connection. We need an engineer now, not customer service from the stone ages.
