    I’ve been on my knees far too much tonight. @virginmedia your broadband is awful these days. And resetting either fails or lasts 10 mins. From superhero to supergran. Not worth your monthly bill. #virginmediadown #virginmedia

  • tolu_____ Tolu (@tolu_____) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia How about just provide me a link to download the less than 10mb of pdf? Admin fee to provide a link or email a customer of over 3years? What have you offered me in return for the many times of INTERRUPTED service when I’ve had to turn to my mobile hotspot?

  • Nickwatson888 Nick watson (@Nickwatson888) reported

    @virginmedia That's it?? It's not the speed I'm annoyed about it's the the lack of WiFi for long periods of time, so not slow speed but NO WiFi

  • snramz Snramz (@snramz) reported

    @virginmedia VM had a credit on an acct I had approx 4yrs ago. Added to that they put a negative marker on my credit report all that time and I only became aware of it recently when I was applying for mortgage. Despite several attempts to liaise with your customer

  • nicolasmaury Nicolas Maury (@nicolasmaury) reported

  • accrusc AccrusC (@accrusc) reported

    @virginmedia M350 - I just ran a test on my PC and it showed 25+ so yeah, I would say it seems to be an issue in the evening. I ruled out over utilisation because my download is always a constant 320+.

  • StevieD3105 Stephen Dancer 🌈 (@StevieD3105) reported

    @mikelarwood @virginmedia New builds are cabled like this all over the country Mike, The home builder installs the cables but do not terminate them, each cable will go to a different room in the house, we will only connect the cable to the room we install in, this is the correct procedure.
