  • RicRoberts Ric Roberts (@RicRoberts) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. My upload speed has been _really_ low recently (like 1Mb/s!). Download is fine. The online tracker reports no issues in my area. How do I report this?

  • bainespne Michael Baines (@bainespne) reported

    @virginmedia Internet has been absolutely awful during lockdown last year and now the they have the absolute cheek to say its going up in price. Time look look around I think. Been with them 16 years as well.

  • laurenny93 Baah. (@laurenny93) reported

    @virginmedia I've missed one meeting, been cut off another and had to struggle with poor 4g for my 3rd meeting today. I have "no problems" detected except my internet cuts out every 25 mins or so. Very disappointed. This is not good for my career.

  • diane_harley1 Diane L Harley (@diane_harley1) reported

    @virginmedia Up and down x

  • mathewbaxter17 mathew baxter (@mathewbaxter17) reported

  • Beccarrr Rebecca Lloyd (@Beccarrr) reported

    @virginmedia heeeey @virginmedia it's been a month, my complaint has vanished from my account and no new ones will go through? No email address, no option to message and no way am I sitting on hold to customer service all day ... not worth it for 2mbps is it ... 💰💰💰

  • gingabex Ginge (@gingabex) reported

    @virginmedia Not if I don't have to. I have internet speed of 80+Mbps on my phone connected to WiFi yet 0.14 on my work laptop. Both connected to same WiFi and in same position in house close to router. Help! I'm not able to work and kids missing lessons
