  • Baynesi83 bay (@Baynesi83) reported from Mellor, England

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Here she is again that glam Nan spouting bollocks that is instantly shot down by ordinary people who seem to actually know facts. She really needs to shut up or just read factual information instead of coming across as an incompetent muppet.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, I've done all that (I'm a techy) it's why it's in modem mode and replaced with a capable router. The issue isnt the equipment it's the connection. Without the hub3 I can run upto 900Mbps download and 240mbps upload.

  • stevelthompsom Steve Thompson (@stevelthompsom) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia new customer trying to register on your media app always comes up with an error code!!!! Not a great start......may cancel if this is how you roll ??

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Considering my router is a 1gbps it shouldn't be an issue. However even with wired it'll vary between 15mbps and 110mbps. However our average over a month is 53.6mbps, which is less than half the speed we pay for 😳.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia @JTCHANGINGBIZ Whilst they provide a marginally better speeds than competitors their customer service is just non existent, until you say you're leaving..

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Now showing estimated "fix" time of 16:00. 21 hours without "service". This. Is. Not. Funny.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia LS, I have and do regularly when ever it seems slow. It varies from 12mbps download to a maximum of 110mbps. However the monthly average is under 60mbps. Which falls well short of my guaranteed speed.

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia This help page just walks me through what I've already done, it doesn't show me how to reset the pod

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0)💙 (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia BL1 2NJ Still having problems with disconnecting and connecting, been like this for 4 hours. I have reset my router numerous times

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia @Piethagoram How about maintaining free roaming charges then seeing as you've hiked the cost of using your service

  • DougHall18 Doug Hall (@DougHall18) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia The worst possible service from your disgraceful company TV and broadband down 5 times over Christmas. No explanation, no apologies. Sod the fact that I can't wfh or watch prime time TV. Had enough, I'm leaving.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia I have your smart hub 3, or as I like to call it the dumb dumb 3000. (It's struggles to broadcast a decent connection around a 2 bed flat, so it's been banished to modem mode. (Honestly, it's the worst router ive ever dealt with) 😳

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That doesn't tell me anything. Just that the engineers ".. are working hard to fix it....." The service has been down since 7 last night. And no idea when it will be fixed. With zero redress after 4 incidents in a little over a week. Poor.

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia I've woken up to no Internet service at all, again

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank @virginmedia It may be 30 years old. Strangely, with BT (Cable), Sky (wired), never had issues.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank I've switched the router to Modem to get the signal to the 2nd floor loft. Allied to the self installed mesh network, that works well. The signal isn't now the issue. Being without services from @virginmedia 3 times in just over a week, is.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia If does now. 12:00. That's 17 hours without service.

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @MeNigeStew I'm with @virginmedia suffering for decent coverage in parts of the house & despite trying a pod (which has yet to work btw) wifi extenders (which fight with the main router) & 2 engineer visits I'm still suffering. Having full TV as well not sure how broadband price breaks down

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia ANOTHER outage in BL4 9LR area? Are you kidding me? That's the fourth in just over a week. And the second today!

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia Tried them all over 18 months. Short of moving the router, which imo will shift the issue from one room to another, there's not a lot else open to me according to your representatives. We work from home and my wife uses all her mobile data every month as a wifi hotspot

  • Ding_its_belle Belle (@Ding_its_belle) reported

    @richardbranson I’d like to have a conversation with you regarding the utterly abysmal customer service and treatment provided my @virginmedia, seeing as the representatives don’t seem to care at all. Are you aware of how awful the reviews are? Are you be satisfied with this?

  • Alan_Doug_Gord Alan Gordon (@Alan_Doug_Gord) reported

    @virginmedia I think you have made an attempt to fix things and presumably the kit is coming out in the next 24 hours so here’s hoping

  • alisonfmch Alison Nixon (@alisonfmch) reported

    @virginmedia any known problems in Eh53 area, the signal is shocking

  • MintyHuntley John Huntley (@MintyHuntley) reported

    @virginmedia have you got a customer support number?

  • Globshite Globshite (@Globshite) reported

    @virginmedia Is there something going on with your internet in M33 area? Images aren't loading properly. Speedtest ping and download are fine, upload stuck around 0.2Mbps. Your service status says it's fine. Reboots haven't helped. Any ideas?

  • Ding_its_belle Belle (@Ding_its_belle) reported

    @virginmedia Yes there is! My mum has been trying to contact the mover’s team for 4 consecutive days, however she’s been placed on hold for 90+ minutes and then hung up on! She’s tried the automated messaging service which hasn’t done anything, this is unacceptable- worst customer service!

  • Pam_Pope Pam Pope 💙 (@Pam_Pope) reported

    @virginmedia One of my problems is logging on to ebilling. You are trying to send password reminders to an non existing address. I have had many conversations. I have had the latest bill and it's not what we agreed. We only went along with this as we were promised a good deal.

  • MintyHuntley John Huntley (@MintyHuntley) reported

    @virginmedia As was putting the phone down on me whilst I was on hold waiting for a manager. That’s how you treat your customers these days?

  • DelHillan Del Hillan (@DelHillan) reported

    @virginmedia We know what the issue is, you just book an engineer and then don't bother to turn up. 6 times it's been booked in 2 weeks, leaving a vulnerable pensioner without a phone. Spoke to nearly all departments including an email to you guys(no reply) no accountability whatsoever.

  • Ding_its_belle Belle (@Ding_its_belle) reported

    @virginmedia Your service is absolutely appalling, no wonder all of your reviews are abysmal.
