@virginmedia big thanks for your rubbish service that meant I dropped out of giving a lecture part way through - we pay a small fortune and expect decent service

@ThreeUKSupport hi. My mobile number starts with 07305. It originally was issued by @virginmedia. I’ve had some companies try to call me (including the landline where I work) saying calls to this number can’t be connected or the number isn’t available. Is there an easy fix?

Turns out turning your @virginmedia Hub 4 off and on again resets the 2.4GHz network name.

@virginmedia I’ve been having issues with my wifi since I got it last year and now we’ve been talked into getting a “pod” for an extra £5 p/m only for the guy to say it still doesn’t guarantee wifi speed. Whatever you lot are smoking please quit.

@virginmedia Good afternoon #Virginmedia my problems still go on I have had an engineer visit problem not a fault but from when I first started with you. Contacted customer service who promised a manager would contact me. Nothing since except one scam call. #nothappy

@virginmedia If these pods don’t work, I’ll back with more reasons for why people should avoid using your rubbish service. It’s pathetic really that I have to come on Twitter to do this for you to be bothered just because of reputation. Disgraceful

@virginmedia Would it be ok to not just send me the same message each time but tell me how you’re going to make sure the service what it should be? Both my wife and my work is utterly dependent on good internet access

@virginmedia That’s not what my issue is. WHY IS THE INTERNET SO INCONSISTENT??? - and threatening to charge a £240 to cancel the contract for wifi that does work is very poor customer service!

@virginmedia If this keeps on where can I complain next? @tsascheme @OmbudServices as I can #Virginmedia don't seem to take the problems they create and being a service provider seriously

@virginmedia yet again last night and now this morning your service is t working despite the large amount we pay you every month. The two of us work from home - you are costing us business. If you can’t provide a decent consistency service then admit it and we’ll change provider

@virginmedia I am very disappointed or rather angry with the service provided this morning, and want to leave Virgin media, as you have failed to deliver your service and the customer service is even more appalling.

@virginmedia Talking to your faults team is pointless, they just keep repeating same thing, it's like your equipment never develops faults. If it isn't that the call drops midway. I have just about pulled out every strand of my hair out.. I'd rather leave for my sanity.

@virginmedia When they first did next door's installation, which knocked out my Internet entirely. Guy from tech team said engineer shouldn't have hooked into our signal, that it would be a temporary measure, and he'd send an email to his supervisor about it. No-one's been back though

@virginmedia Yet again the service today is poor. PE2. How long is this going to continue? We are paying for M350 product. It’s dropping in and out ALL the time. I’m fed up of calling in and getting little information. Been like it since the first week of Feb 21.

Just had the worst customer service call with @VirginMedia. Eventually had to pull a Karen and ask for the manager. Dude said no, and eventually (after forty minutes of talking down to me) cut me off.
