@virginmedia nothing but issues. 2G & 5G always stops working. Updates happens when ever it feels like. And every time I contact Virgin, it's like talking to a 6 year old.

Virgin media - your automated service has a flaw, it just repeats the same message, ‘ no faults found’, when there is a fault, like my internet is giving 2Mb download right now

@virginmedia So I tell you calling you is no use as no one can help me, I can’t use webchat as I don’t have an account anymore and I’m sure as hell not writing you a letter. Give me an email address of manager or I’ll be finding contact deets for the chief exec.

Had @virginmedia phone ... again! Saying that can do better on price. I phoned up & asked for a better price due to rise in energy bills & food, they couldn't help. But now I have cancelled & got broadband elsewhere, they are falling over themselves to do better! #energybills

@virginmedia Connection seems to be dropping every hour or two, very unstable. And the speeds we do get are awful. Myself and my partner both work from home and it’s beginning to impact our work.
