    @virginmedia @RAWKnights7 I am sick of the Broadband dropping, supposed to be on 100 super fast fibre, but it slows down all the time, thinking of leaving for another provider

  • ChrisPhelps78 Chris Phelps (@ChrisPhelps78) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia so you have deleted my tweet about the shocking service in the M41 Manchester Area great customer service to a 14 year customer. 350meg is worse than 200. I want a refund and not a joker telling me to reset my router #virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia Last night was a joke with gaming, the lag was stupid with @virginmedia but with @bt I will be getting 150mb down 40meg up, I can get 350meg down 50meg up, ipv6, I prob can use my own router if I need it, your hub3 lag spikes 150mb to 265mb in split seconds can't be good.

    I hate @TalkTalk so much. I wish @virginmedia didn't cost so much.. at least they don't put the phone down on people when their customers want to speak to the manager!!! FUMING!!!!

  • tiny_mischief Shaunna (@tiny_mischief) reported from Risley, England

    @FreelanceFee @virginmedia Oh don’t get me started on them. Relentless issues. But I’ve learnt if you kick up enough fuss on social media they’ll do anything to shut up you

  • WellMax81 Anthony Maxwell (@WellMax81) reported from Sale, England

    All ready to start streaming and virgin media once again decides to take a day off. Jesus Christ man. I pay £58 a month just for broadband. I’m seriously considering dropping this piece of shit company and going to sky.

  • taliashan talia (@taliashan) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia is so so crap and has the audacity to be the most expensive

  • tiny_mischief Shaunna (@tiny_mischief) reported from Risley, England

    @virginmedia Nothing so far but our WiFi went down not so long ago, you upgrade us. Our box never turned up then there was a problem in the area (forever reoccurring) which wouldn’t be fixed for several days. Not good when you run a business from home

  • AbigailOgier Abs (@AbigailOgier) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Not sure - we gave up and watched the football instead with the plan of trying catch up! Will try the reboot if all else fails but wasn't sure if it were a wider problem as it was only that one programme...

  • AbigailOgier Abs (@AbigailOgier) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia This evening audio description appeared on Dave, but this time we were able to switch it off with no issue (although we hadn't switched it on deliberately)

  • bob9958 Bob (@bob9958) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I have just tried to run a test on your website and guess what....... there is a problem with that page/service right now!!!! We're sorry this isn't the page you wanted This part of the site isn't working at the moment, but it'll be up and running again soon. 1/2
