    @virginmedia In work now! Family struggling at home will have to do tonight! Are there other steps you can message me. messaging on here last week service been terrible and believe the whole area from speaking to friends and family! Virgin need to acknowledge and communicate if bigger issues.

  • KayakmooseF Kayakmoose (@KayakmooseF) reported from Liverpool, England

    @BeanToast @skytv @virginmedia Check each month's bill very carefully as they are prone to be really inconsistent when it comes to billing. I wouldn't use them at all but no others can provide speed like there's in my area. Once others start providing a service like virgin I will be changing providers.

  • walshy31 Paul Walsh (@walshy31) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia could I please have a number to speak to someone human about my WiFi issues?

  • CharlieIDIC IDIC (@CharlieIDIC) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia your sales team are telling people that upgrading to 200 speed will fix WiFi issues. I was looking for a new deal but don’t want to sign up until it’s guaranteed I can get WiFi in more than 2 rooms. I live in a small 3 bed and I’m on my 2nd router which is worse

  • sheilahibberd Sheila Hibberd (@sheilahibberd) reported from Rainford, England

  • cathcrilly Catherine Crilly (@cathcrilly) reported from Liverpool, England

    Guys I know the world is a toilet and very bad things are happening but if there's going to be one thing to tip me over the edge, it'll be the Virgin Media interface. Absolute fiasco every time you go to watch anything 🆘

    @MissVJFxx @virginmedia Because it’s often **** and they don’t know what’s going on in the network, my line was down for a week, it wasn’t a local issue until they mysteriously discovered one and got it up and running!

  • SamSelby70 Sam Selby (@SamSelby70) reported

    @virginmedia sick to death of crappy service and customer service is beyond ridiculous. Promised the earth when trying to sign me up. Now nothing. Crappy broadband and even worse customer service 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • ScottBrownridge Scott Brownridge (@ScottBrownridge) reported

    @virginmedia Yes but still not dealt with. Like I said bunch of jokers. Shocking customer service from top to bottom.

  • doughty182 Chris (@doughty182) reported

    @virginmedia Firstly can you read the thread so you are up to date. I called and was not given a ref # (spoke to an advisor several times - no resolution). when I called again there is an automated message of major error in the area (E15) no ref #. I need WIFI for my job!

  • MissVJFxx Victoria Firth (@MissVJFxx) reported

    @Mr_Tasker @virginmedia I never do

  • CoriLinney Cori Linney (@CoriLinney) reported

    @virginmedia I have been recently receiving very slow speeds with your internet. My upload is averaging around 0.2mbps which is awful, just wondering if there is anything you can do?

  • NickiRogers Nicki Rogers (@NickiRogers) reported

    @virginmedia You have not only lost my parents as your customers, you have lost any opportunity of regaining my custom which is more lucrative, when my current deal ends. This is shocking customer service

  • aysha_happy1 #FreeThoseInNeed (@aysha_happy1) reported

    Gotta love @virginmedia advertising their 'great speed' obviously what they fail to mention is the great speed is only there if you bloody get connection. God forbid their hubs actually work. Useless piece of junk!

  • MissVJFxx Victoria Firth (@MissVJFxx) reported

    @DavidHu90497109 @virginmedia they don't give a ****, just take our money.

  • xNickStar Nick🌟 (@xNickStar) reported

    @virginmedia I have checked this link too, it was no help. Calling support also yielded no results. Wifi has crashed 3 times just today.
