@virginmedia can you tell me how to send back your NOT so super intelligent WiFi booster. It's crap, does not work and ever since we used it we keep getting kicked off wifi, both me and my partner. Internet speeds are worse on some devices.

@virginmedia Broadband is very temperamental. I’ve tried all the suggestions, reset the hub etc. It fixes the issue temporarily but seems to often revert to very poor speeds. Hub 3. Sometimes speeds show as fine, but on all devices the speed is poor.

@virginmedia No! I've just spent 26 minutes trying to get through, so I'm just going to pester you on here instead. I've raised three separate complaints to no avail. My only recourse is public humiliation. For a communications company you're really very poor at it.

.@virginmedia I’ve been waiting for 40 mins and counting. At no point am I told what place I am in the queue nor expected waiting times. Very poor. Can you please arrange a call back as I’m not prepared to wait those sort of times again with no idea of how long it’s likely to be.

@virginmedia I am not happy with my Internet speeds. I have been a virgin customer for 3 years and have been told that I apparently have too many devices connected which I have never heard of with any previous provider. I have 100mbps and have had nothing but slow lagging stream

@virginmedia you've surpassed yourselves this time! 50 days without broadband and yet another promised date of reconnection passed with no communication or explanation. I refuse to waste another sunny weekend waiting for your useless 'customer services' to lie to me.

@virginmedia "I am really so sorry that you are looking to cancel the services which I will need to get you connected with our customer relations team who will be able to help you further..." I had to ring on a different day as I had no more time that day

@okaygeraldine @virginmedia That’s one for @consumerlinda G. I’d give them a call, I’m astounded they can charge you when you move to an area they don’t service. It feels very very wrong.

@virginmedia worst service ever. Who can I speak to about cancelling a contract that has never gone more than 3 days without freezing and buffering?

@virginmedia Why would you rather customers leave than offer incentives to stay? I'd rather get the deals you list on your site than you getting greedy and charging me 30% more for the same service. I'd stay if you offered the same deal, my point being, I shouldn't have to tweet you about it

@virginmedia Mmhmm so another 3 days and it most likely will worsen just like the previous 2 dates given. I've been a customer for 9 years and I've watched VM go from brilliant to an absolute joke and a shell of what it used to be.

@virginmedia 50 minutes to get through to someone to then get told they can’t help, despite pressing the corresponding numbers I needed. Put on hold to be transferred and now line dead. How do I cancel?

@virginmedia Every time I try and contact customer services, they just try to sell me a new package and won’t listen or resolve my problems. So now I have no phone line and you’ve even put my bill up!?

@virginmedia Had some friends say it was being crap right now and it's still happening. Website doesn't say anything is wrong, but that is not what we are seeing. We are experiencing the same outages that other people are reporting in other areas.

@virginmedia The service page says everything is fine. It has done for hours. It is not. Whatever the technician screwed with today he's going to need to go back and unscrew it. Everything was fine until today's scheduled maintenance.

Yet another lousy service from @virginmedia @richardbranson Again your agreement to credit overcharges on my account have not been implemented. In an age when every penny counts you continue to over charge me for services and not honour agreements I have in writing.
