@virginmedia Nothing on page would fix it. Called this morning, your guy ran a diagnostic and said a technician needed to call Monday. This afternoon I turned on to check no other channels had gone and everything was back as normal. Waiting to check next 24 hours but likely to cancel appt

@virginmedia why am I getting intermittent broadband service AGAIN? Once again you are preventing me from working. I don't get paid then you won't be getting paid. Sort it out otherwise you won't be getting any more money out of me.

@virginmedia Clearly the number is still active who i wouldnt have spoken to virgin customer care staff on that number. If it was ceased why do you still have it connected to your centres. Ceased means no longer existing so i shouldn't have even been able to dial it.

@virginmedia No problem, yes tried that. No vpn or antivirus running. Was previously working, nothing has changed this end. Sometimes it loads with intermittent glitches and then error message appears. Not sure if our V6 box is the issue.

@virginmedia Hello, do you have a number to speak directly to a human I’m having no luck with your automated telephone service and online troubleshooting. My internet has no connectivity and you’ve overcharged me on my bill.

@virginmedia WiFi is ******* ****!! Keeps cutting out every 30 seconds, lost count of how many phone calls its been and nothings changed!! Quickest thing about them is the speed at which my money leaves my account each month to pay for this **** service!! 🤬

Thomas Birch (@birchplease) reported
@virginmedia Thanks. Each day I contact support. After a back/forth they “refresh signals”, it works for a bit and then I have to contact you again. I can only assum that you’re throttling me. I pay for 200mb but your own speed test rarely reads above 45mb. Please can you fix.

DareWolf (@DareWolfRL) reported
ANOTHER evening pulling only 5mbps @virginmedia. We pay for 200. Every time the ******* football is on. Newsflash, some of us dont want to suffer for others to watch some overpaid wankers kick a ball around. Sort it ******** out.

@virginmedia internet has to be the worst. I’ve spent the last week resetting, buffering and cursing the day I signed up to their bullshit lack of capacity service.

@virginmedia hi - connection has been slow and unreliable for months. Assume worse now everyone is at home, when can I expect the recent “upgrade” to make a difference? 200mbps I’m getting maybe 1.5?? Tried ringing/help faq’s but no luck. Help please!

So, today @virginmedia have sent me an email containing a code to free Amazon Prime for 12 months (after 3 months of mithering them for it). Only trouble is the email says I have to use the code by 31st March...2020 🤔 Unless I'm Doctor Who, this is impossible! #Incompetence

@virginmedia abysmal service from start. I’ve moved house and now only have internet in one room and have now been charged extra for a booster I was told would be free. Can’t seem to resolve this with any advisers who all tell me different things, 3hr wait on the phone
