    @virginmedia your internet has been rubbish recently with varying speeds as low as 5mb 1 minute then 95mb the next! Now it’s gone down completely! On top of not being able to speak with anyone I don’t feel that your service is worth it! #rubbishservice

  • JamieMeecham Jamie Meecham🏳️‍🌈♥️ (@JamieMeecham) reported from Canvey Island, England

    @virginmedia Hopefully the confirmation of the rude man losing his job.

  • JamieMeecham Jamie Meecham🏳️‍🌈♥️ (@JamieMeecham) reported from Canvey Island, England

    @virginmedia care to explain why a member of staff felt that hanging up on a customer complaining about their broadband is acceptable? And now I’m stuck on hold AGAIN to solve my issue.

  • marcgallagher82 Marc Gallagher (@marcgallagher82) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia your sales team are the biggest bunch of #fraudsters I’ve ever dealt with! Phone us to offer a better package and you have taken our package and completely messed it all up! #CustomerService at it’s worst! If this is how you treat a loyal customer of 14year, I’m off!

  • hungoverdrawn Robert Shaw (@hungoverdrawn) reported from Wainscott, England

    @virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

  • Bunglebob66 Robert Bailey (@Bunglebob66) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia get enough money from me and all the others get enough, from the rest of the paying public. So stop being greedy, stop paying the Premier clubs so much and wages will have to come down. There, sorted!

  • JoshSyratt Josh (@JoshSyratt) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I've been trying to get in contact for ages with you guys. I'm extremely unhappy with your service. We have 'upgraded' and the WiFi's even worse now. I want to leave, please help.

  • lee1988mars Lgmars (@lee1988mars) reported

    @virginmedia why have I spent over 2 hours on the phone waiting for you to answer the phone so I can cancel the services ******* useless this company no one should be joining no wonder your having to drop your prices

  • adrian03272809 Adrian (@adrian03272809) reported

    @virginmedia broadband service looks to be down again. Reading (area reference 3). This has to be the 3rd outage in as many weeks. Any ideas if VM are aware of a fault?

  • djpaterson DJPaterson 💙 (@djpaterson) reported

    @virginmedia as different people in our street have been told different things and quoted different dates. Sounds very much like VM knowing there is an issue but not wanting the real reason to be known for fear of losing customers. 2/2

  • J0hntyy Joнηtу (@J0hntyy) reported

    @virginmedia is there any way of actually speaking to a person? The online chatbot is dreadful and doesn't help, the same with the text one. Calling is all automated.

  • DMC_1878 David Mc (@DMC_1878) reported

    @virginmedia please help me... My wifi has been switching on/off several times a day for last two weeks. Ethernet connection is fine and stable. I've tried calling to no avail.

  • djpaterson DJPaterson 💙 (@djpaterson) reported

    @virginmedia Great timing. My WiFi has gone. 29 Jan. I know I have to allow 28 days, but your service is making my work untenable as I have to go though a laborious process to get back on to my work server every time.

  • Smiley_75561 smiley (@Smiley_75561) reported

    @virginmedia I live in Birmingham and my internet keeps on lagging out freezing and restarting. Are you guys having an outage if you are please let me know.

  • theparkie2012 Tomov (@theparkie2012) reported

    @virginmedia I have a complaint reference - C-2901212894 if that helps. Where do I get an outage reference from?

  • djpaterson DJPaterson 💙 (@djpaterson) reported

    @virginmedia No, there isn't. I check every time and there is never anything listed. I run your test and by the time that starts, the WiFi is back on. I was told by your call centre there was work going on from 16.01.21 to 09.02.21, but it sounds like an excuse 1/2
