@virginmedia That’s terrible. Are you saying Continuously for 24 hours? Because we’ve all lost over 24 hours in the last 3 days already?

@MarkFlannery19 @virginmedia @phonecoop Hi Mark. Tied into a contract for a year. Therefore they just play lip service to any problems. I used to have 100mbps and that was appalling so upgraded to 200 which is slightly better but never anywhere near even 100 coming into the house

@virginmedia now you have cut services to an essential medical services home worker when the call logs clearly show your errors & the fact we’re on calls of 2+ hours without success. DISGRACEFUL company #CICAS #CEDR @Ofcom

@TheRealHavokHD @virginmedia Not at the moment mate but I'm looking at when BT & Vodaphone hit the area, if its this year then it'll be a switch Also think I'll go around all the neighbours etc telling them about issues etc advise them to do the same. I'll make flyers with my ThinkBroadband trends on 😡

@chloemphoto @virginmedia The laptop also works off mobile data sharing too so connectivity issues are good. Please sort out this mess because the router is needed to be working properly for laptop work to be done at home. Stop all this buck passing from one dept to another and help these guys PLEASE.

@virginmedia 🙄 isn’t that just a lazy way of doing tech support. When I worked for you going back a few years, we were very customer focused!!

@chloemphoto @virginmedia Even if the ethernet works, the WiFi issues are still there and you need it sorting. It's in the @virginmedia contract to ensure all equipment is working and functioning as it should. Faulty equipment should be replaced and remember, you're paying for the service.

@virginmedia hi, just wondering what the wait time is on the messaging service as I'm not sure if I'm in a queue or if something has gone wrong (waiting 2 hours so far) Thanks!

@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?

(@UltraFoil) reported
@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
(@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.
