  • jjpjohn J Prescott (@jjpjohn) reported from Higher heath, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for you lack of response @virginmedia, obviously customer support or helping out my 86 year old mother who lives alone get her phone back and working is not a priority to you, maybe @SkyHelpTeam will be more helpful when I call them tomorrow, disgraceful customer service

  • TheLensman Mark ODonnell (@TheLensman) reported from Crewe, England

    @virginmedia The number used 01455443469 in the UK. They said they had detected problems on our router & wanted to help. They asked me to enter a web site. Having spent almost 40 years in IT I felt it was wrong. The router does have slow moments but I had not reported it.

  • Jack_Wharton02 Jack W (@Jack_Wharton02) reported

    @virginmedia No I haven’t, but I have family in my area that have been having the same issues recently too. It always seems to be a lot worse at night

  • BethanieStoker Megabeth (@BethanieStoker) reported

    @virginmedia @IthicaHawk I smell BS a member of your team has ~now~ responded to our community thread saying IT IS an SNR problem. Contrary to what 5 members of poorly trained 2nd line support said on the phone yesterday over the course of 3 hours. So....where’s our engineer?

  • BethanieStoker Megabeth (@BethanieStoker) reported

    @virginmedia @IthicaHawk Today’s question is: is it more efficient to spend time getting VM to send an engineer out to fix a confirmed problem OR To move house completely so that they no longer have a monopoly over our broadband?

  • wendelabra Wendelabra 🍒 🟥 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@wendelabra) reported

    @virginmedia It's not the cable as 2 of us in the same house are having the same issue.

  • WestHighlandTom Tom (@WestHighlandTom) reported

    @JimBrowning11 @virginmedia @KolkataPolice This one might catch a lot of people out as Virginmedia use customer service centers in India as part of their business. Good shout Jim.

  • speeds_c Ace🥤 (@speeds_c) reported

    Virgin Media Wi-Fi stinks so bad

  • Jim_Watford Jim QC (@Jim_Watford) reported

    @virginmedia Just had some scammers pretending to be you, they said there was a problem with the connection, they hung up when I asked for the last four digits of my account number, I don't know if you want to make customers aware of this. They called from 01916824332.

  • Dolidze_A Anna 🇪🇺 (@Dolidze_A) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, thank you for your response. According to the link you sent me, there are no issues in our service area. But when I run checks, it says there are issues with our Hub / router. I’ve followed all the trouble-shooting steps, but still no solution...

  • Ashley61107765 No (@Ashley61107765) reported

    @virginmedia wired connection was used and it was 500mbps download and 20-30mbps upload, but it goes off and on off and on and just doesn't work

  • dannyhearn_me Danny Hearn (@dannyhearn_me) reported

    @virginmedia It’s now been returned to sender. My dads given up on virgin now. He spent alot of time struggling to fill in the website forms (I had a zoom screensaver to help). you need to look at the experience of new user sign-up for your service. It’s not simple and you’re losing customers
