    @virginmedia another day another WiFi outage. This really is the worst WiFi I've ever had. Legally as you are not providing the service as promised am I allowed to cancel the contract ? @CitizensAdvice

    Mark Smith (@markccfc70) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Been with @virginmedia back as far as old NTL days. Downgrade our package for the first time ever to keep costs down, and the Internet must have crashed at least 8 times today, the day after we changed. Absolutely useless, on the phone tomorrow to cancel this **** completely.

    @paulatkinsonuk @virginmedia Virgin hubs are known for poor wifi signal the hub 4 aint much better i ended up getting an old home hub router and turning that into a wifi access point . Though if you do get a hub 4 beware of overheating along with virgin wifi boosters.

    @virginmedia can you tell me what has gone wrong with your company!?!? I have been with you for years, without complaint but, since Dec 21, you change my contract, without my say-so & despite constant calls for 6 months, still nobody will take responsibility & sort it out!!! ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜

    @thewson72 @virginmedia Great when on. So much faster than anyone else. But useless service when itโ€™s down.

    Oh, maybe not. Even though the website says no problem, there is a problem with the broadband round here ๐Ÿ™„ @virginmedia

  • benj8min
    Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia It doesn't. No changes made. I had major problems setting this up, it went through someone in your complaints department and they had to do something manual to set the package I was on up. Clearly, even they are incapable. I've had TV for a few months, then it's just gone off.

    @bristolbluegas @virginmedia @HiveHelper If someone could own a problem it would help. The engineer that came out today said, I just install hubs mate, Iโ€™m not authorised to lift man hole covers. Virgin told me yesterday this would be their โ€œpriority technicianโ€ that could fix everything. What a joke

    @virginmedia is it normal practice when a call is made to you about problems with the tivo box (3rd time this year) that you're then on a call for over an hr at at the end of it promised an upgrade, go thro all the protocols only to be told actually you can't have that

    @virginmedia @Vikk3rs146 Sorry isn't good enough. The link you gave tells us nothing we didn't already know. We want actual answers and some real customer service. All it tells me is my internet is down, well no **** Sherlock the flashing red light and no connection on my computer told me that.

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia That's awful. Whenever you leave they always try and squeeze a bit more cash out. Disgraceful

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia We're having the same problem, been a year now, my dad is having to pay bills manually and incurring additional charges as they won't recognise his wife has died after countless emails and calls. It's disgusting.

  • TheGreenBarrow
    Rick Barrow (@TheGreenBarrow) reported

    @virginmedia And then I get through for a phone call and then disconnected again. I'm boxing your equipment up and all will be returned even though I'm two months into new contract. Had nothing but trouble with it for this duration

    How about you supply the service Iโ€™m paying you for instead @virginmedia I now canโ€™t have an engineer until 1st June so no Internet until

  • SharonHerbert
    Sharon (@SharonHerbert) reported

    @GeoffJonners @virginmedia They did this to us - went from ยฃ124 to ยฃ211 so we did the switching service with Sky. Virgin then called to offer us the same package for ยฃ74. Too late Iโ€™m afraid! ๐Ÿ‘‹

    @Synifx @PeteUK7 @virginmedia saying this is an "edge case" is absolute bad faith. this exact case happens MULTIPLE TIMES PER DAY for a company like that
