@virginmedia also was offer a system that would improve the WiFi in the house. The netgear pl1000 arrived yesterday and doesn’t give me@any further WiFi coverage. It just extends the network. I only have the one router..

God you’re hopeless @virginmedia . If I was as poor as you, I’d be out of a job. Broadband down again in BS6. Just another irritating 7mins. Never long enough to fill in your engineers form.

@albanwr @cybergibbons I don't use any of my Samsung TVs smart features and deny it network access for that exact reason. But my virgin media V6 box and Netflix account are happily sending sweet something back all the time.

@virginmedia To repeat, your service drops for a few minutes a day. By the time I check, it’s back. It absolutely frustrates me. On Tuesday, 4mins *just as I needed to start a Skype w a customer*. > 2

@virginmedia Thanks the router was out next to the tv by the outside wall, so we’ve never been able to use the WiFi in other parts of the house. It really only works well in that room.

@dangerous_85 @virginmedia I really don’t see the point in the service checker. There’s clearly an issue but still says ‘No known issues’. Rediculous

@virginmedia I have had a terrible experience with Roshan technical support at virgin media. After reporting a fault with my WIFI network three times, he put the phone down on me. These technical support people are arrogant rude and not helpful at all!

@virginmedia No point, tried Twitter several times to no avail. Calls = wasted hours of ones life. Sign for letter now sent to complaints as 2 official complaint emails had “no” response. Next stop Ofcom.

I ask to speak to a Manager, you put me straight through to a line that says it's now closed, call back tomorrow. That's 32 minutes of my life wasted. Bad service, badly trained call centre staff, not happy @virginmedia

@virginmedia Yes done both, it was down Sunday from about 10am all day until about 7pm, in that time I had to connect to my phone hotspot for everything. Then Monday it went down again early morning and was still off when I left for work. White light is on on router but no internet

@Utd1A @virginmedia Customer service in general is in the toilet. Needs serious reform. Sometimes you literally cannot cancel things simply because they’ve made it impossible to deal with call canter reps.

I go into Hospital tomorrow. Best update my Switch games today, while I have internet. Oh wait, @virginmedia is down. Typical. Can't even borrow a friends, because we're in isolation. Honestly, why do these companies make life so difficult? Last thing I need today.

@virginmedia I have been told on this platform by one of your representatives that the outage in my area is until May 11, 3pm. So clearly an issue for my area.

@samatlounge @virginmedia No. Nope. Never again. They could offer stellar WiFi, through cables woven from Branson's golden, 70s pubes and I still wouldn't return.
