@virginmedia I’m totally disgusted with your call centre service I’ve just had a call from them & the person in question conveniently cut me off whilst in process of speaking to him. This has happened before & a complaint ignored. Value your customers you don’t know the meaning

@virginmedia so disappointed with your service. It’s been 9 months since we changed our package and still @virginmedia cannot get a simple Direct debit form processed correctly.

@virginmedia 200 down from what I can remember, I'm at work right now so I can't check but the speed isn't the issue. Also, I said "should" because based on his test, it's an above average connection, but in practice, it's wildly inconsistent in terms of ping, packet loss/timing.

You'd think when @virginmedia sent out a new router it'd be one that works better than the old one, apparently not though, this ones shite as well. 3 days in a row, three seemingly random bouts of just not working

@virginmedia My wife rang (as account in her name) eventually got through, and an engineer is expected in next few hours as I connection at all now!!Poor/no mobile signal at home as booster box is connected to your router, so even more inconvenience right now.

@virginmedia Again, I appreciate what you're saying, but similarly I've had an engineer to my house and he said that within the parameters of his test, that my connection should be better than average. This is an issue with how my connection is being routed.

@virginmedia No, I've gone down this route before, just look in to your routing servers and or the bandwidth limit. Any time I do anything remotely intensive all packets start getting dropped. I'm on my knees.

@virginmedia Thanks for the reply, the room where my hub is has great WiFi, my study has my laptop and printer, however WiFi is poor. I’d like to put some kinda booster in there, I did a test and looked into ordering one from you but was dismayed to being told it will cost £3 per mth plus del

Absolutely livid with @virginmedia customer service for broadband. Some of the worst I’ve ever experienced in my life. Absolutely laughable.

@virginmedia I've cancelled my account earlier and still haven't received an email to confirm. I've been on the phone for over 2 hours and spoke to 4 people today AND had the phone put down on me. Can you help?

(@robbyroberts90) reported
@virginmedia I get it’s allegedly due to covid but other companies don’t have this issue so why is your model so poor. First experience of virgin internet and I’m 100% changing providers straight away.

@virginmedia I am already on the telephone preference service. I did actually realise it was a scam but I want to know why Virgin Media's record of blocking scam calls and emails suddenly seems to be totally abysmal!

@virginmedia ZERO JUSTIFICATION - And no, I won't login to a different portal to answer your pathetic canned response. Crawl back under your bed of other people's hard earned cash. Don't @ me again.
