@virginmedia @m1kewh1te83 Well you see i have asked multiple times for a replacement HUB and told i was not allowed a HUB 4 unless i bought your 1Gbps service. Now why would i buy that if your current services are down regularly and wont replace my hub? Twice in the same week it has been down!!

@virginmedia after 3.5hrs on the phone to your teams in every country from around the world today with horrendous customer service, can I get a phone number for a manager or complaints department in ENGLAND. Already filed complaint with communications ombudsman for Ofcom.

@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 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

@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?

@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

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

@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 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 have spent two days and over 6 hours trying to put right what your staff messed up and to be honest I’m done with talking to incompetent people who talk the talk and do nothing. My mobile phone sim is due to be cut off because of your errors

@virginmedia What is that going to achieve. No one wants to sort the issues out. How many people am I expected to talk to? You suggest I call one of the numbers, which area am I asking for?

@virginmedia On to a new contract. Really? Well the moves team made no mention of that. Oh sorry, I forgot this would appear to be the norm as most people would give up as they can’t get through to resolve the issue and accept this

@virginmedia Well it’s been 13 hours, no tv or internet. Typical on a Sunday as well, 4pm is far to long if you already know what the issue is. there’s no one out there fixing it as we speak so I find that hard to believe. It’s bn14 area if you want to chase up the useless geezer
