@virginmedia It's the continued problems that annoy me. Down again now, third time this Easter Weekend. Yes it's showing as down on your dashboard. I always check & flag it when I (also) have a problem. Getting worse all the time. Beyond a joke.

Hi @virginmedia received a letter this morning advising me of price rise and providing a link for more info. The link directs me to call and you don't answer. Any suggestions? I'd like to cancel my service with you. Thanks

@virginmedia Yes unable to use it. Wireless is very poor and was great during the first couple of weeks. Uploading is very hot and miss. Not happy considering I’m paying for fast broadband. My phone rarely connects to it unless I’m fairly close to the router. This can’t be right

@virginmedia New one is I was hoping to sign up to some sort of TV package, but when logged into my online account it gives me a "oops" with no option, so I need to talk to someone. Experience with the number you have given me has been poor, I want to avoid it!

@virginmedia Hi - I did speak retentions but they only offered me £29 of current contract for 6 months. Wanted to change package totally and downgrade, was hoping for deal equivalent to new customer discount, as would be whole new package ( downgrading from ultimate oomph to big oomph)

@virginmedia I don’t know what more I can do, I call you to report this, but you already know. I ask about my bills because the service is not good enough, to be told they can’t look into it now. I ask for evidence you have issues so I can show my work why I keep going offline, no one can
