Virgin media really need to pull their finger out. Don't boast a service that you simply cannot provide. What a bloody joke. #virginmedia #failmedia

@virginmedia Which would be fine, but it’s now been down for a further 40 minutes again and been lagging all morning. So it’s obviously far from fixed.

@Qxater @Vivid_Web @xxIndyRef2xx @virginmedia That is all to do with the routing used. Baring in mind the entire back bone of the UK internet is controlled by the post office/BT Openwoe, so anyone piggy backing over BT would have a better ping. BUT ping is not the only issue. Being a gamer, give me VM 350 gaming pack over BT

@virginmedia all of yesterday and still today I have no internet. It's been switched off, reset etc. Last month I went nearly a week without service. This needs resolving or I'm leaving.

@StroescuGabriel @SamWall59028621 @xxIndyRef2xx @virginmedia That is why you should never use wifi. I have 3PCs, 2 consoles plus 2 x 4k TVs with V6 boxes. I use Cat6 on my PC and console (the rest is cat5) ethernet cabled into my own router, then into my Hub3 in modem mode. No issues with ping/lag here.

@virginmedia any reason why it’s taking you 4 hours to fix a problem in our area. This is the service you expect us as existing customers to pay through the nose for. But when we ring up and complain you say your deals are for new customers only!

@TrekinTech @virginmedia I gave up with Virgin media router after so many of these. It’s is single handedly the worst WiFi router man (or woman or it) has ever invented. But it’s a pretty ok modem TBF..

@virginmedia @cinderellao9 Utterly disgraceful you’re still saying my services will be down. I’m definitely leaving now when my contract ends at the end of this month. I can’t believe you’re this arrogant and disrespectful- #virginmedia #notshowingqueensfuneral

@spenjflairs @jayrayner1 @virginmedia Virgin don’t use BT cabling, they have their own network. They use to many years ago but stopped doing it so any problems with Virgin Broadband is theirs to fix.

@virginmedia No you provided a copy of a contract I didn't agree to then you did the usual send me round the houses for a month, zero customer service shambolic communication, promise to sort it then just grind u into submission

@virginmedia What do I have to do to get ANY sort of service from you. For 3mths, we have had WiFi outages at LEAST 10 times a day. Whenever I call, the engineers are working on it!!!! 3 MONTHS!!!!

(@marklewins) reported
@virginmedia I will...but which option to follow? It is not a fault (and you have to do that silly automated service check, causing the firmware-faulted Hub4 to reboot). Just want to speak to a person and avoid that waste of 30mins and 2 phone calls. Cheera

@virginmedia I downgraded my package in January,but it was not implemented from your end ! Hence why I get charged double/triple every month until I call customer care and explain the story ( every MONTH) I have been your customer for past 15 years ! Customer care won’t resolve the issue
