@virginmedia No, I've gone down this route before, just look in to your routing servers and or the bandwidth limit. Any time I do anything remotely intensive all packets start getting dropped. I'm on my knees.

@virginmedia I’m having problems getting through to your customer services, I’ve been trying since yesterday morning. This is unacceptable. Please can you send me a link for a web chat.

@virginmedia so disappointed with your service. It’s been 9 months since we changed our package and still @virginmedia cannot get a simple Direct debit form processed correctly.

@virginmedia Thanks for the reply, the room where my hub is has great WiFi, my study has my laptop and printer, however WiFi is poor. I’d like to put some kinda booster in there, I did a test and looked into ordering one from you but was dismayed to being told it will cost £3 per mth plus del

@virginmedia My wife rang (as account in her name) eventually got through, and an engineer is expected in next few hours as I connection at all now!!Poor/no mobile signal at home as booster box is connected to your router, so even more inconvenience right now.

@virginmedia hi my speed has died to a crawl this morning in the SA13 2 area of Port Talbot. Have reset the Super Hub etc. Help needed please.

@virginmedia Again, I appreciate what you're saying, but similarly I've had an engineer to my house and he said that within the parameters of his test, that my connection should be better than average. This is an issue with how my connection is being routed.

@virginmedia I have had: -An upgrade -An engineer come and change the box outside my house -A brand new hub -New power line adapters -My connection tested on your end numerous times And yet the connection, 99 times out of 100, feels like total shit whenever I use anything intensive.

@virginmedia I was transferred numerous times. Then finally told that the person who set up the house transfer, has messed it up and somehow cancelled my access. With no solution on how to fix it

@virginmedia 200 down from what I can remember, I'm at work right now so I can't check but the speed isn't the issue. Also, I said "should" because based on his test, it's an above average connection, but in practice, it's wildly inconsistent in terms of ping, packet loss/timing.

Spend hours waiting for someone to answer @virginmedia then they just tell me ‘wait till tomorrow and it will work’. And it never does, cancellation never sounded so appealing

You'd think when @virginmedia sent out a new router it'd be one that works better than the old one, apparently not though, this ones shite as well. 3 days in a row, three seemingly random bouts of just not working

@virginmedia This has been going on really since I had it installed in November so it’s not really an issue in the area.

@virginmedia I keep being asked about a reference number. I was never given one. I received an email last week saying someone had to tried to contact me to discuss the complaint (they didn’t). It’s a joke. Not tried wired connection.

Is @virginmedia the worse company in the world to deal with. been a customer for many years, just spent 45 on the phone to discuss an upgrade to a new package that is on their website for £79 to be told that I will have to pay £104 because I am an existing customer. #crapservice
