@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

@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?

@virginmedia I’ve had two lengthy phone calls with your ‘technical support’ people; it briefly got quicker then stopped working completely. On their instructions I’ve changed some settings on my router which apparently may take 48 hours to fully take effect…

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

@channell_lisa @virginmedia It’s dreadful. Wishing we had never changed. Can’t believe there is such a delay on booster. Other companies are able to offer their complete services so why not @virginmedia. 😡😡

@virginmedia @virginmedia Is there any upload speed issues going on as I've been experiencing this for a while now. I even told the VMedia person who gave me a new contract but said just keep an eye on it. Tonight was only 1.5 and should be well over 30. KA12 area disappointing

@virginmedia arranged for someone to collect my broadband box from old home. Didn't show up. Ordered the return package kit not once, not twice, but three times - didn't show up. £40 late return charge because of your incompetence. And now broadband is down in my new home 1/2

@virginmedia Thank you for the response. I did as you asked at 7:04pm this evening engaged with Terri the Triage Bot who has kept me on hold waiting to speak to someone for 3 hours 20 minutes. Just when I thought @virginmedia might try to repair this customer onboarding failure #poorservice
