    @fasurveyors @virginmedia I have to say; I’m normally pretty pleased with @virginmedia internet. It’s normally fast and reliable. But last couple of days has been awful. It’s getting too expensive as well

  • RogerCole10135 roger cole (@RogerCole10135) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia we done that, all connections are in to the box, your company network thinks that we are connected via router this not so, but has a cable run into the house.

  • goonerlgh Lawrence Hooker (@goonerlgh) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia Third Superhub and it's just as unreliable as the previous two. Frequently has to be reset. Slow speeds, unstable wifi. When are you going to replace it with decent hardware?

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    @westbrookdanni @virginmedia Up to 2 weeks ago I didn't have a bad word to say about them. The pure fact you can't get through to someone is the worst of it. Happy to take your money and trim your internet speeds!

  • 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.

  • Kimlovett Kim Baker was Lovett (@Kimlovett) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

  • wonky61shaky Penny Rolfe (@wonky61shaky) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

  • 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!

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    Anyone else really struggling with slow speeds over the last 10 days with @virginmedia. It's been spot on for 2 years now and then 10 days it seems something has happened. Lucky to get over 10Mb now 🙈

  • 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.

  • jamesrfyoung James Young (@jamesrfyoung) reported from Wickford, England

    @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

  • 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!

  • _SamButler Sam #GSBOUT (@_SamButler) reported from Rochester, England

    Must say For the last year had nothing but issues with @virginmedia internet, and once again the internet isn’t working and requires a technician, who isn’t available until the 2nd! So 6 days over Christmas and new year I can’t do uni work, watch anything, play anything! Quality
