@virginmedia Still no response. 19 days and counting 🙄. It’s clear you’ve been lying to get rid of me. What are you going to do to resolve this issue before I contact ombudsman? A suggestion: you arrange for someone to contact me. By now it should be clear to you your support doesn’t work.

@virginmedia No not aware of status line please advise. No interest in community support forum. This is an issue with your service and equipment. Needs proper support.

@virginmedia So your code of practice section 3. Your case will remain open for 28 days so you'll have enough time to review and consider our proposal. Erm you've closed it after 2 days. Your service gets better

@virginmedia I get that. But several people on there have logged issues. I haven’t used that tool but try it. But issue is defo at your end as between outages speed/latency is brilliant and other people have same issue on street. That’s why I’m so keen to fix not leave as usually gr8 service.

@virginmedia No. I received an email stating I didn't need to sign a new contract and it was classed as a service change.

@virginmedia Yes dropouts Ethernet and WiFi. To be clear that message was not our engineer. Just proof prob is beyond our home. That neighbourhood thread is 14 comments long! We’ve had 2 engineers out. Cable replaced and hub replaced. Problem persists. 4 dropouts this eve alone.

@virginmedia This is the exact problem. Your agents deny there is an issue in the area. A recent social media post revealed many people in our neighbourhood have the same issue. All your agents want to do is ‘send signals’ to our router and restart our router. Nobody taking issue seriously.

@virginmedia December. Official complaint prior to that. Please read back through your thread, the broken promises and the lies then come back with a proposal to resolve.

@virginmedia been on hold for over an hour trying to get support with no response. There is no chat function online and no help for accessibility. Shocking customer service.

@virginmedia Just wondered if I’ve waited long enough yet for anyone @virginmedia to care enough to respond to me? Still no forum response. Still not complaint response. Still line issues. Just lies from your SM team.

@virginmedia Still keeps going off. Has been like this for months now. Has gone off twice this evening. Can’t get hold of anyone. Self service goes in circles. Just need to speak to someone who will listen to the issue. It has to be network level. 2 engineers have confirmed our setup is fine.

@virginmedia Your agent told me 72hrs. But then I was also told if I post on the forum I will get support. But we can all see how that has panned out. Just. Fix. The. Problem. Why is this so difficult? I guess copy/paste apologies are just cheaper than dealing with the real issues.

@virginmedia on top of hundreds of spam junk emails we have umpteen scam calls on the landline. Very day I am getting increasingly saddened by Virgin Media’s inability to stop scammers and spam flooding my system. Very expensive terrible service

@virginmedia another poor lengthy phone call with one of your customer service advisers following being mis-sold your services. Refusal to listen to our original telephone calls where we were mis-sold the service and refusal to accept any responsibility.

@virginmedia do you have ANY customer service people working? I have tried ringing you for the last 24 hours and constantly get a ‘ring back later’ message. The service these days is appalling. I sent a tweet yesterday that mentioned Amazon and they replied to me. Virgin didn’t!

@virginmedia There are no words for how poor the customer service is. It doesn't matter whcih channel. No-one is able to do anything. I would have no business if I shrugged my shoulders and on Wednesday and said to my clients 'never mind, we'll sort out your urgent problem on Friday"

@virginmedia Thanks for quick reply, our issue is he has recently been diagnosed with dementia and has destroyed all relevant details bar his account number. He is paying £113 a month and has absolutely no internet but we cant get anyone on the phone to try and sort this out for us.

@virginmedia Momentary connection dropping has interrupted my TV viewing about 5 times today. I have connectivity - I wouldn't recommend the service to my friends.

@virginmedia They have said by the 8th. No guarantee that we will be refunded for the time we have been left without a connection. Very poor.
