@virginmedia I'm aware of the line you're taking to defend the 11% increase but the point is that your service is rubbish as demonstrated by the third image. We have to chuck £200 to Google to get a hub that works. I presume you're not getting an 11% pay rise this year. I know I'm not.

I cancelled @virginmedia broadband as the price kept increasing, the service wasn't. They offered 75% more speed for 40% less as I was such a "loyal customers for years". Effectively, they admitted they were overcharging me for years hoping that will make me stay! No thank you.

@virginmedia So you can't supply daughter's new house with broadband and so insist on a termination fee?!? They don't want to terminate. You're the ones who can't honour the contract! Can you please help here?

@virginmedia why are your customer advisors refusing to let people leave? I keep getting hung up on within a few minutes after they've transferred me between each other a few times. This service is shockingly bad 😡

@virginmedia please update your Virgin Mobile automated message which says lines are open until 22:00. I called at 21:05 and connected to a lost & stolen line who couldn't help and also said they couldn't feed back to anyone that the automated message is wrong 🤦

@virginmedia He apparently told my neighbour that it will just come on at some point tonight? I don’t really hold a lot of faith with that as he had no idea what the issue was?

@virginmedia It was. Now again it’s down. For the last 30minutes. For the last couple of months the service would go down for a min at a time, before then it was for hours almost daily. What is happening and why isn’t any maintenance communicated? Look at all of the comments on Downdetector

@virginmedia If the problem cannot be resolved I will have 2 options. 1) Commute to London which I am being told not to do or 2) find a new internet provider. That seems to be the better option for my daughter and her zoom lessons. Please respond urgently.
