@virginmedia Have upgraded the service and in theory should be able to run an official but I've been having problems with my router for weeks. It's not working properly and barely allows me to watch Netflix! I'm a critical worker and this isn't helping. Can't speak to anyone!!

@Annabanana8008 @virginmedia I feel for you, if @O2 and @virginmedia do merge, I'm leaving at the earliest opportunity. @virginmedia leave me a little cold and with no confidence as a customer.

@Annabanana8008 @virginmedia @O2 Good luck to you and don't take any sh*t, you should be fully compensated for the absolute inconvenience. We had a little problem with our provider and they where excellent, understood the issue and before we asked they compensated us.

@virginmedia Thanks for the response and your patience. Yes, the TV is doing the same today but not as bad.

@disabledaver @virginmedia It’s absolutely awful. In and out of connection all day, everyday regardless of lockdown.

Phoned @virginmedia to see what they can do about a payment holiday since we are forced to remain closed for the foreseeable and obviously not using any of our broadband services. They offered a discount of half a months bill. Wow. The worst company we have spoken to so far 😰

@virginmedia I have done everything you have asked me to do regarding my security issue. I have responded to your texts as requested. But you never respond as you say you will. Meanwhile, more letters and texts arrive. It is futile.

@RiotAngeI Ye virgin media’s been a ***** the last few days 🙈 they’ve released a statement saying that VM customers are using the internet more often than normal with everyone being home due to the lockdown that it’s having problems keeping up to speed, so not much they can do really 👎🏻🤣

@virginmedia We’re now £25 down on mobile data charges. How do we claim this back and seek compensation for much hassle and time involved?

@virginmedia No it sent me through a list of options that led to a dead end. I'm getting conflicting information from the Virgin app; it says there isn't a problem in my area, but also that they're working on the problem in my area! The phone call led to them just sending me a link.

@virginmedia Unfortunately this is not an option and also not an issue I've had with previous broadband providers. Looking forward to ditching virgin in the new year.

(@UltraFoil) reported
@virginmedia The link just leads to the page where it says they're working on it, and the call says to hang up. I don't think there's a problem in my area in general, my neighbour has no issues. And it's just our upload speed affected. I just don't know how to get through to an actual person.

@virginmedia It is a one off credit due to complete loss of service for 9 days. Every time I ask why it’s not been applied, I’m told it has now been applied and it will appear on my next bill. I’m then given a bill with no deductions! Extremely frustrating.

@virginmedia That would mean going back into bots and WhatsApp. I want to write a letter of complaint. As said 5 hours later and no resolution. That’s no service

@virginmedia Omg if I add up all the hours I’ve spent on the phone to your various depts, the number of times I’ve had to clear security etc it adds up to a couple of weeks out of my life. Wish I’d never heard of VM. Not your fault - give me Honduras or Mexico any day.
