@virginmedia @ksw1980 My bill has been paid and that’s resolved. The issue now I believe is with your website. I enter my new password but cannot click the second box to confirm my new password.

@ItsDaveClayton @virginmedia Business or Residential service? We switched to VM Business two years ago and it is night & day better. Wi-Fi switched off at router and BT Home Hub used to distribute Wi-Fi throughout the house. I get 550 to the house and over 200 in other rooms

@virginmedia I’m feeling so frustrated and fed up! I’ve had issues since Wed, when everything went down for 24 hours, now no wireless gadget will work correctly, very weak signal. Spend over an hour waiting fir CS to answer, he told me only option, PIN reset and put phone down!😡

@virginmedia I have a hub 3. I’ve used the app and it acknowledges black spots in the bedrooms, within 20 ft of router. I got a link for a free booster, but the link was dead. I need help to get these issues sorted. CS. are uncontactable. There are no more trouble shooting steps left!

Virgin Media upload 0.5 Mbps (Vs. a 30Mbps + promise) since 13/11. No fix in sight in spite of @virginmedia having acknowledged our pb, at a time where having a decent internet service in your home is a matter of life & death.

Translation: “If we want more money off you we’ll bend over backwards. If you try to leave us, we’ll make it as difficult for you as possible.” I’m now even more determined to terminate my contract. @virginmedia

.@virginmedia amazing that when I want to talk to someone about moving house or changing my existing package, your team are more than willing to chat to me. When I get transferred to the team to disconnect my services and cancel my contract I get hung up on after 25 mins on hold.

@virginmedia good morning. Just to say your wifi is completely useless, as is your ridiculous 150 telephone customer service. Can’t wait to get rid of your rubbish products! 😡

(@lauradocherty84) reported
@virginmedia Can you tell me what speeds your intelligent Wi-fi pods are actually rated to? Are they dual or tri band? Do they support MU-MIMO? Are they actually capable/suitable using with 1 gig package? There is no info anywhere on pod specs so unsure if mine faulty or just don’t work

@MartinSLewis We just left Virgin Media for our Broadband, due to terrible WiFi signal. We didn't have to wait 30 days. Husband got a call/day for 4 days, then emails asking us to stay with them. It was borderline harassment....we haven't stayed!

Last time I was with @O2 was in 2015. Left the network as it was so bad in central London of all places. Joined a week ago only for the Volt benefits, and it’s worse than before. The best I get is 3G. Not sure why @virginmedia merged with them! Ridiculous.
