@chloemphoto @virginmedia If it connects to other WiFi networks from the same source ie @virginmedia then the problem is within your router itself and not any device connected to it. Your router is faulty and needs replacing. You said yourself that the router is faulty and goes offline if even moved.

@virginmedia The Wi-fi is rubbish, slow and crap service up stairs. Often I have to connect to extenders. It’s a two story average house. Your routers are rubbish. The older ones were much better!!

@virginmedia I would happily self serve online, via a browser or app, as you incessantly encourage me to do, but when the page says “oops something went wrong, we’re unable to change your package online”, its very frustrating. @O2 will help you soon!

@virginmedia Need to cancel my new order. It wasn’t done correctly and given the total lack of being able to contact you I have lost confidence in VM. Cannot contact anyone to cancel though, what a nightmare. Just taking too much of my time to make switching worthwhile. #painful

@virginmedia Yep. Just been left in tears by chief exec office resolution team - argumentative, lying & poor customer service skills!! Waiting for paperwork to escalate to ADR. I've given Virgin 7 months to make it right. It's ADR and/or the media that will get this fixed now

@virginmedia nice to know the complaint resolution staff in your chief executives office lie about the ofcom guidelines. Still owed almost £700 by the company. Utterly disgusted by the farcical excuse that is your customer service!!!!

@virginmedia second delay in sending out my new V6 box, sent the message the afternoon of the day it should have been delivered! Useless. Wishing I hadn't agreed to a new 18 month deal. Customer service not interested. Feel extremely dissapointed as a loyal customer of 4 years.

@virginmedia you have just lost a customer of 20 years due to your unbelievably rude useless staff. I am stunned at how incompetent they have been over live chat. Also why offer your existing customers offers if you then don't honour them???
