@virginmedia Wired. The issue isn't with my side of the network. It appears to be on the virgin side based on the router logs.

On top of this since I changed to @virginmedia last week, they have sent me a marketing text message almost every day (Sunday is the only exception). I can’t find how to opt out of these and not sure blocking my network provider’s number is a wise idea. Never have I this quickly

Virgin media service - connection goes down with 24 hours & no help from technical services, just reading from a script & no escalation. Giving up after a year of unacceptable service. Lovely and polite on social media, impossible once a customer #virginmedia

@virginmedia after nearly a year of repeatedly dropped internet service finally asked them to turn off their Wi-fi kit so can use my own. Basic connection fails, again, and nothing left for support desk to blame - challenge that if it’s not on the script then no help

@virginmedia sadly having to post again. Home broadband down again. Your service is so unreliable it is useless. U have failed to provide a reliable broadband service and remain in breach of contract.

@virginmedia stopped our DD because you take excess ££ from our a/c. Called lots of times, written 2 complaints, been promised it’ll be sorted but empty promises AGAIN absolutely by far worse customer service I’ve ever experienced

@Julie_B92 Especially when particularly young people might not be able to access internet for this kind of stuff on any other device than their phones. It’s so disappointing @virginmedia doesn’t reply to these tweets. I hope it’s an honest oversight and they’ll fix this.

@AnnaBatchelor @virginmedia I advised an elderly, recently widowed friend she should look very closely at her mobile phone contract so that it could be terminated promptly when she died. I've heard NIGHTMARE tales of problems with this!

@virginmedia The issue isn't just for me. It's other customers too in the area. So booking a tech for myself won't resolve anything. If that was the case, I'd have booked one yday for today. How comes i can't see the time frame fix that u can?

@virginmedia So the broadband issue will clear out in the next few hours? Why do I have to report back again in 4 hours? This intermittent issue has been on going since Yday. Time before it was last month and time before for around 3 months, between oct-Jan this year

@virginmedia Hello, o2 won't let me cancel without paying a fee. You have reduced the costs of my tv package which has been very helpful, but @O2 are refusing to do any offers and want to charge me to leave.
