    @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!

    @virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed

    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

    @LozzaFox Don't people know you can use google family and virgin media security that can fully control what any child watches and download on a device and restrict how long a device can be used a day. Down to the parents to decide what their child watches. Is Starmer etc so thick with tech

    @virginmedia yeah did that. it says all fine. no issues .... yet a quick scan of social media ( not using virgin broadband obviously, reveals there's an outage in my area .... perhaps you should move your status checker to another provider? It's going to 24 hours apparently. great service

    @virginmedia your broadband has gotten noticeably bad these last few years, you used to be impeccable but now there’s always some fault you can’t fix and it gets pushed back again and again. ******** has happened to you? Your engineers lately are ******* shite. (Customer for 25 years)

    Gloucester Glass (@gloucesterglass) reported

    Getting more than a little tired of really poor internet in GL2 @virginmedia I rely on it especially with the very poor Virgin/O2 mobile signal in my area. Pull your socks up Virgin this is not what I am paying for. Next week you expect me to connect my landline to my router!
