@virginmedia It’s always this poor. Just a poor service from you. Completely inconsistent and the WiFi is a joke. A reboot makes no difference.

@virginmedia It’s supposed to be a 100Mbps service but it’s rarely at that speed. No WiFi in the kitchen (5meters away) and in the bedrooms upstairs. It’s th worst WiFi I’ve had in years. Kids can’t use PS4 in the room directly next to the one with the router in it.

@preospurs @virginmedia They’re in breach of their contract with the service so I will have a right to cancel.

@jordanjaylam @virginmedia @richardbranson I am experiencing the same problem Jordan. Pay £3 a month extra for boosters that don’t work, as well as WiFi that doesn’t connect to all the rooms, liberty! Hope your problem gets resolved soon.

@virginmedia I shall be raising a complaint yes. No attempt to find out if the router is faulty, just trying to sell more services. You have failed to deliver against your contract and the customer service is shocking. My complaint shall go to OFCOM also @Ofcom

@virginmedia I shared the screen prints of what they said. No attempt was made to diagnose or resolve. Only to sell boosters despite me advising them I have major WiFi issues. I’ve kept all the messages and you did bring but try to con me out of more money. And now you call me a liar!!

@virginmedia I was told there was a problem with the cell that has now been rectified. There was nothing at all wrong with the phone but it cuts out all the time. Always has...

@virginmedia I have called this number twice but am still awaiting a further call back. It is shocking that a company can charge such high fees especially as I was told when taking the contract moving house would not cause any issues. If you would wish to call me directly please dm me.

@virginmedia Maybe being left on hold for over 50 mins because I asked to make a formal complaint?

(@Daza1970hotmai1) reported
@virginmedia customer service worst I have ever experienced. I ordered broadband and TV in November with conformation that the cable had to be buried 12" deep. Agreed at placement of order. Almost surface mounted. Still not connected 9 calls (>6 hr) and 3 missed appointments.

(@nik_eleftheriou) reported
@virginmedia it’s been 4 days without broadband and nobody in customer service seems to know how to fix this. Any chance we can get someone to look into it or escalate? Feels like Virgin support has stopped caring at this point.
-
Eldini
(@ElDiabloPancake) reported
@virginmedia Is there any way of contacting your support other than trying to ring in? I've spent 2 and a half hours on the phone trying to get through and got cut off 3 times. All i need is some missing cables sent to me and I'm sure that'll fix the problem!

(@MJPercy10) reported
@virginmedia Sorry for the late reply. I factory reset the router again. No known issues in my area. Cables are tightened. Just did a speed test and got a rapid 0.31mbps download - 0.07mbps upload haha.

@virginmedia been left on hold by customer service for 50 mins and counting - been charged 1 year of fees for a service I didn't have - great service! #ripoffVM

Kenneth Carranza
(@KennethCarranza) reported
@virginmedia Yes, there was no other option. Is that the only solution? Just two days with service and you want me to wait for three days before I "may" have a solution? If that's it I may prefer to cancel my account before I get any bill for a service I am not receiving. How can I do that?

@virginmedia I spent a week trying to talk via the text service and just ended in a loop. Would rather just get a phone call like I've asked repeatedly
