    @virginmedia 2. The 2.4ghs remained ok, our internet connection was fine. The intermittent problems are that we have a loss of WiFi connection and/or drop in performance. This seems to only to affect the WiFi devices and not the hardwired devices leading us to believe it’s an issue with the

  • aphethean Aaron Phethean (@aphethean) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    Technical team denying ordering a new box that has failed to materialise. Any chance of a straight answer on this @virginmedia? No TV over Christmas. Bad form.

  • dnbtazz David Bowyer (@dnbtazz) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia have now sat on the phone for 40 minutes to speak to someone about my continuing awful wifi- from the Hub 3. Poor service, poor Router.

  • NickSinghR Nick (@NickSinghR) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to get hold of the customer service department for almost 2 weeks now and nothing. I’m having issues with this “so called excellent hub3”. Can you get someone to call me ASAP

  • Adam_InSitu Adam Clarke (@Adam_InSitu) reported

    @virginmedia You must be joking. This is your usual customer service number that is frequently busy, has confusing prompts and entails hour-long wait times. Happy to bill you for my time to help you bring your business into 2021?

  • RFwebdesign RoryFlynnWebDesign (@RFwebdesign) reported

    @virginmedia do you ever answer your phones? 1 hour now with no response. Happy to keep taking our money though. Pandemic or not it's terrible service.

  • sammysoc Sam (@sammysoc) reported

    @virginmedia once again your WiFi fails to live to its expectations paying £70 a MONTH for a service that you cannot provide, sort this out other wise I will be going to trading standards for false speed claims by your company

  • ThatKidCosmo Cosmo (@ThatKidCosmo) reported

    @virginmedia Is there an issue with the myvirginmedia website? I can't log on

  • chloeflxtch Chloe (@chloeflxtch) reported

    @virginmedia I rang on Wednesday to cancel my services at the end of my contract and he said I’d receive confirmation etc in 2/3 days but I still haven’t received anything

  • 2nd_pat 🇾🇪Pat Mustard-Young Banger🇾🇪 (@2nd_pat) reported

    @virginmedia Engineer was great but after seeing an online offer for 200mb for £32.99 ive spent another hour only to be told that this offer is for new customers only… your customer service has been abysmal & as soon as my contract is up I’m off to a new provider.

  • nuthall1862 Ian G 💙 (@nuthall1862) reported

    Virgin Media hub upgraded and switched into modem mode without any drama. I think the kids just about coped with a 15 minute internet outage. Looking forward to 350+ mb downloads/38mb uploads when my package is upgraded next month.

  • awesomedawson1_ Ben Dawson (@awesomedawson1_) reported

    Absolutely **** knowing you’re broadband is nothing short of disastrous because that’s the service @virginmedia provide these days but all the other network providers including @bt_uk can’t even provide quarter of the speed that they can. The U.K. needs to up their broadband game
