If you’re considering getting broadband / tv in SW5 central London don’t bother with @virginmedia. The service drops out almost daily for many hours and the customer service is non existent @ofcom

@RuthPetrie1 @virginmedia @Ofcom Thanks I don’t hold out much hope . Someone had informed me the issues are to do with them not upgrading the cabinets you see on the pavements outside. The older cabinets cannot Cope with high usage !!! @ofcom

@LynseyAnneWhite @virginmedia @Ofcom When they cannot even run a consistent broadband and tv service in central London you know they’re an unreliable organisation . Plus you cannot get through to customer service . On hold for hours and when you do get through you get someone rude who cannot communicate

@virginmedia Just now. The service is appalling. They have no up-to-date info on faults, they can’t explain why faults often happen in SW5 9, and point blank refused to put me through to someone who could explain the faults, and also refused my request for a call back from a Uk based manager

@virginmedia So glad I ditched you for @GiganetUK full fibre! I think my service has gone down ONCE in 18 months and that was only for an hour during the first few weeks after switch on.

(@chrisekins01) reported
@virginmedia I can’t believe we have received a later saying our bill will increase by £21 a month and bragging how the service will improve. I think you should scrap the extra £21 a month as people won’t pay it with things like this happening.

@virginmedia You made me exit in mid of presentation today. You are forcing me to take decision on my contract. Bad bad bad experience.
