    @virginmedia Yeah. Done all that a number times. I've spoken to tech support. Awaiting an engineer call. I'll leave this conversation here. Appreciate your attention but running those tests will just get me to the book an appointment or thrown out. I've run them a lot. Thanks. Ttfn

    @virginmedia is there any known problems with your WiFi hub ? The WiFi signal I receive is terrible constantly dropping out. I spend most of the time on 3G as it’s more reliable. I have rebooted all routers and boosters but noting seems to make the WiFi work

    @virginmedia The installation is still not complete! That’s the problem. Virgin was ordered on 2nd oct. First install was planned on 17/10 and then cancelled by Virgin. Virgin have cancelled 8-10 times since. It’s now 08/12! 52 days and counting

  • leeradcliffe73
    lee Radcliffe (@leeradcliffe73) reported from Southampton, England

    @VMO2News @virginmedia @goodthingsfdn All the money we pay for this awful broadband is a joke. Oh just get the plug in booster for an extra £5 a month this will help!!! 2m from the router and can’t even send this. 3G is better than virgin. Bring on toob 🕺🏻

  • PandaKingPinder
    Panda 🐼 (@PandaKingPinder) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia The issue is some of the ports in the back don't work, we get occasional dips in the internet's which some days don't reach the amount we pay for and the webpage says we can upgrade our hub but can only be done on the phone to see we can't get hold of anyone.

    @_JC8 @virginmedia @virginmedia Hi can somebody please contact me regarding an issue I have with my virgin account please?

  • DIZZYDJC
    Daniel John 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    @virginmedia It's both. I have been doing some digging and it's the upload speeds. They are not getting anywhere over 2MB /sec which is not good enough. It has been very slow over the last couple of days

  • PandaKingPinder
    Panda 🐼 (@PandaKingPinder) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia We have tried adding a new service and thinking of leaving as none of the others apply and there is no option to call for upgrading. Your automatic service is not helpful and it would be easier to just go through to speak to someone.

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately no end in sight. I had to make another call to Virgin today. It took 40 minutes before I was talking to someone. It seems Virgin are not capable to get this over the line without me pushing them onto the next step and following up to make sure things are done. Poor

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England

    @virginmedia @NetflixUK You may as well not have a customer services team. I’ve spoken to one helpful person in the 53 days I’ve been chasing Virgin for my install.

  • BurvillePaul
    Paul Burville (@BurvillePaul) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia how about wasting less time advertising new products and get your damn internet and tv service to work for more than a few days without a problem!

  • Rob_Mcgimpsey
    Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England

    @virginmedia Several complaints have been raised. I’ve been calling most days since October 2nd. Come someone please help?

    @GeorgeMonbiot @timolarch @VodafoneUK My husband had the same problem with Virgin Media after the death of his father. He was given the number of the ‘bereavement department’ and he phoned, assuming they would help. Instead the woman demanded his father’s PIN and said only he could cancel!

    attend later in order to connect the fibre optic cable. No engineer attended and today we have had to contact virgin media 3 times by telephone to find out what is happening.Despite being told earlier in the day the issue was being escalated and we would receive an update

  • Wmb1877
    William Bell (@Wmb1877) reported

    @Just_Katie_x @virginmedia Had a similar problem with them years when cancelling due to moving house. Absolutely useless would never use them again.

  • PickleSchmickle
    Pickle (@PickleSchmickle) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to contact you for 3 days, to replace a hub as the current one has no power and the power cord that is broken seemingly doesn’t exist for a Hub 4. No internet for 4 days. What do you suggest we do next to get someone’s attention? #virginmedia

  • AlfiePupper
    Alfie Pupper Esq 2 (@AlfiePupper) reported

    Hey @virginmedia how come the only part of your service that works consistently is billing? Posting on here because I have more chance of handcuffing a ghost than speaking to a human employee for help. Funny, cos when you wanted to sell your service we couldn’t get rid of you!

  • markrmifsud

    Thank god we have backup internet "just" and @FreeviewTV on @Manhattan_TV whilst we wait four days for @virginmedia to fix their service

  • CryptoPoli
    Poli 🤌 (@CryptoPoli) reported

    @richardbranson your company has THE WORST customer service ever! Total loss of internet for nearly 1 month, multiple missed engineer appointments, incorrect information, multiple escalations and I still have no idea when it'll be resolved! @virginmedia Absolutely the worst!!

    @Ofcom @virginmedia virgin media has been totally down since 28th May at 10pm. Many people in my area are affected. The potential fix date has been moved forward several times. The latest is 1st June at 12. They haven't given any explanation and their Whatsapp is suspended. Help!

    @virginmedia @virginmedia my tv, broadband & phone is down again. Just missed the final of BGT which I spent months watching only to miss the final results. I can’t lodge the problem online as it won’t allow me. Judging by all the comments online, seems Virgin have serious problems
