    So there's me hoping to watch the #SingaporeGP in full before work then it gets delayed by an hour. **** sake. Thank God for the @virginmedia app. (Dear god I hate working late shifts with a passion) #F1

    Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Well... @VodafoneUK also invest around about the same amount of money in their network, and they haven't increased the prices anywhere near as much as you have. And I'm always connected whenever I'm outside the house. No issues with connectivity whatsoever.

    @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 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

    @virginmedia Look back through my previous tweets. After 3 months of cancellations from Virgin, lies and let downs - I’ve had to cancel the agreement completely

    @hantsconnect @virginmedia Hi - I already logged a complaint when the damage was done 1st time

  • mjam1978
    Morgan Jamison (@mjam1978) reported from Andover, England

    @virginmedia Hi John Thank you for offering to assist. Internet is no better. Unstable and keeps dropping out cannot work from home as it cannot keep up with demands nor can my son effectively work online for school. Service in 2021 as poor as it was throughout 2020 🙄

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

    @virginmedia After waiting 24hrs for a response on WhatsApp I’ve once again been told I need to talk to another department. I waste more time waiting to speak with the “correct” department, only to be told they can’t help because of a third party completing the work. Absolute joke

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

    @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

  • BrainTumourSurg
    Paul Grundy (@BrainTumourSurg) reported from Winchester, England

    Thanks to @virginmedia they install new broadband which worked for about 5 minutes. Now nothing. Follow all instructions to fix. Waited 5 hours this morning for the privilege and now 1 hour on phone still on hold Should have paid attention to the terrible reviews #wastedmyday 🤬

    @tobygilles @virginmedia @bt_uk Never been offered a booster. Had the hub replaced but has made no difference

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

    My internet is painfully slow tonight. Checked my router and it's not that, it's the internet itself. What is going on @virginmedia ? Your status says no faults but I can assure you there is. I am paying for 1GB bb and so far only reaching speeds of about 2.25 mb- explain??

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

    @virginmedia Yes. A third party has just arrived to pull cables and they can’t do their work because Virgin haven’t actioned the construction. 9 weeks down the line and it hasn’t even been actioned from your end. So poor.

  • 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

  • bengood82788338
    Ben Goodwin (@bengood82788338) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I have not been able to connect to the Internet for well over 48 hours now, can't work, watch TV or even listen to the radio as no 4g or 5g signal at home. Not happy

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

    @virginmedia Virgin are compensating me £5.25 a day. That’s £787. Two years of free service because they couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery

  • Macsaint99
    Mark Cook (@Macsaint99) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia @TimTastic38 Ok, so if we paid part of the bill as we had a loss of service for part of the day that would be fine too?????

    @virginhelp my WiFi is terrible apart from when I’m sat right next to it and @virginmedia have been no help. kids are struggling to do their home schooling

    @Benleo @virginmedia Perhaps it you being a **** whiney customer thats the issue??

    @virginmedia Any idea when issue will be fully resolved as still experiencing Pixelation. Thanks

  • Laura92492442
    Laura (@Laura92492442) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Try @NatWindscreens they would give Virgin a run for their money. Tried calling 5 times - different person each time- 5 calls today, 3 emails and voice mail. They have taken my money, realised that window screen needs calibration and offered date in TWO weeks. 3rd world service

  • georgehomiltonx
    George Homilton (@georgehomiltonx) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia After multiple calls to their call centres in recent months I have come to the conclusion that their agents run a competition to see who can get a customer the angriest and an award is given at the end of the month.

  • KathyMi25429227
    Kathy Miller (@KathyMi25429227) reported

    @virginmedia I can't log in because noone will change the outdated email I registered with you 25 years ago so I cannot access onlime... am about to go to Ombudsman as have complained 3 times and nothing done, truly appalling service. Others in my area are moving from Virgin as too unreliable

  • DaveHughes182
    Dave Hughes (@DaveHughes182) reported

    @virginmedia This issue appeared to be fixed only for the internet connection to drop out again a few minutes later last night and the fix date remains 5 whole days! It doesn't seem to be affecting anyone else in my street other than me. Can anyone help?

  • ScottishAshley
    Ashley (@ScottishAshley) reported

    @virginmedia An engineer was booked and then the visit was cancelled by yourselves as it’s a wider issue apparently. So it’s an issue you should already be aware of as it’s widespread according to media

  • XONYT_
    X (@XONYT_) reported

    I switched my network from EE to O2 because I wanted 1Gbps broadband for my home, and Virgin Media offered me a discount, including unlimited everything and unmaxed speeds on my mobile through O2, which I already had on EE. Tell me why O2 is so much worse than EE, and why I cannot get a signal in many places. #pissed

    @jomickane @Benleo @virginmedia Vodafone. I mean they all ******* suck but Vodafone sucks least at the moment.
