@SkyHelpTeam Losing patience waiting for you to contact me about changing my V1 Sky Q box for V2. Fed up with some UHD recordings having software errors. 6 months left on my contract but I’m considering taking a financial hit, terminating it & leaving for @Virginmedia

@virginmedia I’m not impressed. Switched for phone and broadband on 31st Aug. Telephone switch got rescheduled on the day of installation! Had to get existing provider to extend contract for 2wks. Broadband is constantly buffering and now gone down. @NOWTV @VodafoneUK better.

Low and behold... @vmbusiness is down again on the first work day of the week. Makes me wonder how often this happens and I’m normally in the office so don’t notice... I can’t wait to one day move to somewhere where another provider can connect me to fibre optic internet

Really annoyed that @vmbusiness can’t resolve pathetically slow upload speed in central Sheffield for a week. It means colleagues requiring remote access to our server because they are working from home are wasting hours of their time due to crushingly slow speeds.

@virginmedia hi , your text service is awful and your agent went missing for 20 mins after I passed security and then said they were going to be an hour? It took 2 days for you to get back in the first place

@virginmedia Nope. We didn't get hold of anyone. The whole thing is a shambles. Had an engineer booked a couple of months back & then your company decided to cancel 'because everything was fixed'. It wasn't & never has been. Shocking. If people want2 #stayconnected they need to look elsewhere

@primevideosport why is the picture quality so awful via Channel 205 on Virgin Media in the UK? And also when will you offer pause and rewind features to live matches. Can’t understand why you bought all these sports rights to then only deliver such a poor product. Tennis too.
