    @b33rdy @act5scene3 @virginmedia Always do the speed test but make sure it's wired as I work for an ISP and wireless speeds mean jack shit.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @Aeroson_ Well said mate, but getting back to virgin media being crap 🤣🤣🤣

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Forget that sorry but your router is CRAP and you know ut cheap shit.

  • kam_afzal Kamran Afzal (@kam_afzal) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Further to this, your customer service is terrible as is your pricing structure. The company that comes to ‘install’ the service are a bunch of cowboys and have compete disregard for a customers home. Wouldn’t use your service ever again.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Lots of times but a long time ago, your support can't fix it all they care about is you are getting a good speed and I am, but obviously it's not good for gaming, the hub 2 was better but you moved on to the hub 3, not good.

  • kam_afzal Kamran Afzal (@kam_afzal) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Lastly, still waiting on a cheque from last year for services that I was charged for but didn’t use. Refund only available via cheque obvs because with it being 2018 you still hadn’t caught up with bank transfers. Thinking about, your entire offering is a crock of shit.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia I have had enough of @virginmedia gaming is a disaster, not every now and then, every night every game always lagging 1 on 1 shootouts forget it, I have been in touch with your support 100s of times, I get sick of answering the same questions, your equipment is garbage, bye.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Tried everything asked everything, I have had VM for 10 years it's not been brilliant you seem to provide equipment that is not tried and tested, that hub 3 router has to be the worst ever you can't even open all the recomended ports on it, look at the hub 3 forums.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Does it matter what you see, it might matter to microsoft, I buy your internet for gaming, that's it if you get ripped by microsoft that's your problem you sort it that's why I we pay for you GAMING🖕

  • Mark29HT Mark Danylczuk (@Mark29HT) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Delivery driver who came to drop off packaging to return your equipment was very rude indeed. Aggressively banged on my door with the packaging and so abrupt. Appalling.

  • RealClareB Clare 🐝 (@RealClareB) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Apparently there is an issue in the area. It’s happened quite a few times and as I work from home a lot, losing a half day of work time is very frustrating.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia It is not the speed that is the problem, it is the router that is the problem, it is garbage it lags like mad every game is trash I probably played 1 game last night I just back out of them all the time.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia This is the experience I have had of VM ever since I can remember, but it was either you or 6mbps with phone line, but soon I will have fttp with @SkyUK or some other @EE but deffo not you, never ever again @virginmedia.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Lag, gaming is crap, your broadband is fast but not a gaming broadband, remember all your gaming 200 and all the other crap.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Reboot all the time, it is crap broadband.

  • Doublejayz72 James Jackson (@Doublejayz72) reported from Manchester, England

    You know what I love about @virginmedia they are not content with being rubbish.....not at all. They are constantly thinking of ways to be worse, no Broadband for 3 days and do they care... nope. Hats off to them for breaking boundaries and proving crap just isn’t good enough

  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Hi yes it is and for once it’s not Virgin fault. Rang Yodel before and to cut a long story short as Virgin paid for the premium service we will have it by 19:00 tonight. Shock it’s 19:00 and still waiting for the delivery from @YodelOnline we’re going to ring Yodel again🤬🤬

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Right, the only known issues is Virgin Media, tonight I have played 1 full game the other 10 I have backed out of, so my question is what are vm going to do about it, not reset hub, open ports, allow dmz all that crapjust give me what I pay for a gaming broadband like advertised

  • TCarroll1969 Tony Carroll (@TCarroll1969) reported from Salford, England

    @BradHoward3 @virginmedia They CAN'T be that bad...

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Just started gaming, played 5 games backed out of 5 games, lag, lag, lag, come on Virgin sort your crap Broadband out this is so boring and predictable.

  • oasispj38 Phil (@oasispj38) reported

    @_Pealos @virginmedia I did mine all online, pretty simple. Had issues when installed and they sorted it really quick with an engineer. I was very happy with the service. But their route is crap. Great service in the main room, but you lose loads in others.

  • WrenJohn John Wren (@WrenJohn) reported

    @virginmedia what a job it is getting in touch with them about a new package, no answer on phone, live chat too busy to help. I wonder if SKY would be able to help?

  • jprnobrega João Nóbrega (@jprnobrega) reported

    What is that? another total blackout from virginmedia business service you say? just another day in the life of virgin media broadband at SW12 #virginmedia

  • aa_mcintosh22 Alex Mc (@aa_mcintosh22) reported

    @virginmedia how can I contact your customer services team to switch deals?

  • AltitudeIreland ALTITUDE (@AltitudeIreland) reported

    @Elmobai @virginmedia Same issue here Em, barely usable.

  • mermhart Miranda Hart (@mermhart) reported

    Please can you help me @virginmedia @Virgin Is there a nice person to speak to as the weekend is coming up and, you know, there’s Netflix to watch. And it turns out that life stops without wifi! HELP!

  • mxbexglambert Mx Bex☯#ReclaimGenderQueerFlag💜🤍💚 (@mxbexglambert) reported

    @virginmedia we've been trying to cancel our account for hours now. It's utterly ridiculous. Set up with @Plusnet was easy, stress-free and honestly easy. No messing, no silliness, no anxiety. When you ask why people are leaving this is part of why, terrible service.

  • RachelSellers11 selldogmillionaire (@RachelSellers11) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service WOW the call gets too tough your agents hang up. Someone just sent me through to o2 how do I deal with my complaint your staff are the most incompetent people I’ve ever spoken to

  • chrismalone1961 CHRIS THFC 1882 (@chrismalone1961) reported

    @_Pealos @virginmedia Yeah. Their customer service does leave a lot to be desired. But doesn't all the utility companies?

  • MarcGlickPitney Patrick McGinley (@MarcGlickPitney) reported

    @brighton_buoy @RichyCraven 👆Yes! Check Eir or Vodafone AND Virgin Media as VM apparently operates it's own network so they might have better speeds.
