@virginmedia Yeah I know that but we are paying for the fastest speed and when it eventually works we don’t get nowhere near that speed. Considering how many times I have to reset the router we don’t get a full service. Just wanted it sorting out

@virginmedia Yes. There is a known issue in my area but no "explanation". It's states the fix estimate is 3pm. That's almost a whole day's salary.

@virginmedia I see. It is very unfortunate as I cannot do my work when I’m not online and I also spend more on mobile internet because the service I pay for regularly is simply not there.

@virginmedia these past few weeks my wifi signal has been absolute dog, I used to be able to get good signal all around the house, now barely get goof signal in my kitchen no more than 10m away from the hub, my TV which is about 2m away only gets 30mbps when my package is 200??

Ha ha @virginmedia it’s gone off again. This is twice since dinner time where it’s just randomly turned itself off. #annoying and yes it’s saying there’s nothing wrong with the service in my area. So why does it turn itself off ffs

Please be aware everyone when you get a inbox from virgin media. I got one yesterday asking about my account and asking me to send my card details and card holder name and security number to verify the account. It wasn’t virgin media but a scam. Because my internet was down. Scum

@virginmedia So now moved to @vmbusinesshelp line instead of residential activated yesterday and new router installed with no problems. Tonight 7.19pm internet goes down? 7.45m internet goes down? I am paying significantly more and receiving the same poor line?!?!?

@virginmedia It says there’s no issues in my area. So why does my internet keep going off. If it works it’s very rarely high or if it is it’s only for a short time. Then goes off and gives low readings. I’ve reset it and unplugged it from mains etc and still it’s on and off. Annoying

@virginmedia Service page doesn’t indicate anything. I’ve checked all the devices (I only use the wifi no lan cables) and nothing is connected.

@virginmedia I’ve sorted the problem I think. Or maybe until the next time it goes off. I’ve disconnected coax cable etc and blew them clean and tightened them back up and done a speed test and it’s up to 365mb download speed. Hopefully this has fixed problem

@virginmedia One last question, do we pay for the days we are unable to access your service? Previously, when we've had outages, we've been compensated. I assume the same will occur?

@davidwatson07 @virginmedia Shocking. Already lining up a new provider. Ideal timing really seeing as I never seen able to get online anyway…

@virginmedia I fully understand the cost of everything is going up; did consider staying till your reps started insulting my intelligence, gaslighting me into thinking my new package with @Vodaphone4 was a 4g dongle plan, followed by a rep saying no cancel the new contract with the new isp

@virginmedia the worst customer service I’ve ever had the displeasure to experience. If this is how you treat all your customers you’ll soon have none

Goalscoring isn’t our issue. Defending and playing midfield is. When we lost Eriksen. We lost at Anfield by 7. AWB entrance swung 3 goals tonight. Virgin Media.. Lads.. a new striker will get us more goals but it won’t win us every big game we compete. We need a Modric kind

@virginmedia introducing annual inflationary increases and removing people’s ability to cancel their contracts is a disgrace & only serves to benefit you. People should be given the choice rather than hiding it in the T&C so you can remind them next year when they forget.

@ConstableChaos @virginmedia What's the issue with the line. @virginmedia how long do you plan and think is acceptable to leave an elderly person without a means of communication. What happens in an emergency if the line doesn't work correctly. Maybe ofcom would be interested in this. 1/2
