@virginmedia He swapped out the router said that solved a bit of the issue but speeds still not as expected then said he would have to book a longer appointment to figure out the issue so he went. Waiting for another appointment

@virginmedia Planned work which is fine but the advert in writing and on the tv makes it sound good that you get data on your Virgin mobile if your broadband ever goes down. Just finding the contact for trading standards

@virginmedia offer volt speeds of 350 paying for 200 getting 60ish it’s ridiculous I’ve spent hours sending them proof when jitter high they think resetting it all and spending more hours getting everything back up will work and I don’t it’s only been this bad this time since

@virginmedia Yes I know! They are doing essential works but you say broadband outage and you get data on your phone. That is a breach of trading standards as apparently you don’t do that

@virginmedia The team have booked an engineer but advised changes on router settings that have made it a bit better until the engineer can fix it properly

@virginmedia Every time it fails I have never been asked to do a reset. The last time they checked their system and sent an engineer who put attenuation on it as the jitter was high and the system showed a fault their end

@virginmedia It's worst on 601 BBC News where either part or all of the screen pixilates. But it happens on other channels to a lesser degree.

@virginmedia any news on where you’re expanding your network? I’ve been trying for years to get you to cable our estate and still nothing despite the main road being cabled up

@virginmedia Still a problem. Programmes we recorded Thurs & Friday are unwatchable (& not available on Catch Up for some reason)

@virginmedia are useless fixing an area so they break your broadband then get you to do lots of useless tests that show the same thing then ask for a reset that will not fix anything

@virginmedia I need to make a complaint and submit my bill for time wasted with tests that show me what I already know….it’s faulty and has been on and off for a long time and each fix doesn’t fix it

@virginmedia just found out as I’m an oomph customer on volt I should get broadband of 350 but getting 53 jitter is beyond a joke too. What happened?

@virginmedia Hi, I've been on to the Service Status line, no issues. Used My Virgin Media app no issues raised with Broadband or TV provision. Still picture break-ups on some channels.

@virginmedia I already spent ages on the phone on Friday when I needed internet but you were doing essential works. I study, work and have a young daughter I don’t have time for long phone calls for a service that should work.

@virginmedia Looks like your engineer told me he would book a follow up appointment then didn’t bother. Your customer service lately and ability to provide a service are very lacking

@virginmedia signed up on 1 Aug, install kit supposed to arrive on 5 Aug and it hasn’t. Transferred to installation team on phones, on hold for 1hr 19 minutes and the music stopped and got disconnected. How can I resolve my issue?

(@JeddKenobi) reported
The fact @virginmedia in the process of doing maintenance yesterday screwed up & cut out our internet, then told the earliest a engineer can come is Friday & then tried to sell us the "you can get a cheaper bill if you combine your TV, internet and phone" is fricking outrageous

@virginmedia I tried checking that yesterday, but the website was terrible. How about having humans on the other end of the phone who don't change the story every sentence & also have enough staff so customer calls get answered with a minute.

@virginmedia No it's not showing on your service page! This also happened the other week when the temperatures were high. Its a joke

@virginmedia I experienced the worst Wi-Fi outage ever this morning, it’s not the first time nor will it be the last I fear. It would be a huge inconvenience to move but move I will, as you simply can’t supply a decent service. #badservice #badwifi #skybroadband

(@hammal6474) reported
@virginmedia No and I am not waiting any longer. I had massive doubts about signing upto Virgin Media after reading the scathing reviews of your service. These are obvs well earned and so I've cancelled the Direct Debit and won't be using your services #badreviewsforareadon

@virginmedia I'm trying to work from home but the internet has been down for an hour now. What's going on? Service status says it's a known issue but nothing more. LS29
