    @wearysole4 @virginmedia @bt_uk I thought it was just us but totally agree the network speed is shite round here.

  • Maylor Phil Maylor (@Maylor) reported from Salford, England

    @HobbitsWife @virginmedia No, our issue was because the signal strength from the street box was wrong, which had been exacerbated because of all the extra network traffic recently.

  • craigawilliams Craig Williams (@craigawilliams) reported from Sale, England

    @DUCKmagstoke @fslconsult @virginmedia They did say that they wouldn’t be responding as much on twitter due to staffing levels. Go to say I’ve had no issues at all with speeds and connections just with end website servers not coping.

  • BeckyFirth76 Becky Firth (@BeckyFirth76) reported from Southowram, England

    @virginmedia I had 3 connected no problem. It started when you sent me a new hub. The passwords and everything are there it just wont let me connect. Amazon are looking into it further for me but thought I'd check with you too. Thank.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    Just got my bill of @virginmedia they gave me some wi-fi boosters for free, because the hub3 is so bad, but they have charged me for them, "what" I know they were free, but I have a trick up my sleeve, I'm out of contract, you knobheads!!!

  • tadhg50 Tim O'Ryan (@tadhg50) reported from Oldham, England

    @BurtLeach @virginmedia Same here -in OL4 area too! Got an email last night saying the issue was fixed-it wasn’t and still no BB today. 24 hours now. Using personal data for work purposes now. C’mon VM.

  • Hizz67 Richard Hizzard (@Hizz67) reported from Halifax, England

    @virginmedia 50 minutes wasted hold time only to be cut off twice. Your so called live chat line is anything but. Poor, poor, poor. You sure make it hard to leave

    @virginmedia You guys have the worst customer service I have ever encountered in my life. An absolutely despicable company and service myself and my partner have come across. Should be ashamed of yourselves and wouldn’t recommend your services to anyone.

  • RupaliaSunny Sunny Rupalia (@RupaliaSunny) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia have the worse broad band service....customer service is a shambles and all.

  • anthonymusk anthony musk (@anthonymusk) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service is unbelievably awful. Will never use you guys again - which is a shame. Great internet, terrible attitude to customers

  • mashermack MacK (@mashermack) reported

    Nearly the 2 hours mark on the online chat queue and 20 minutes of wait on the phone after another call of 30 minutes dropped earlier. Who will win? @virginmedia guess they don't want me to cancel the account.
