@virginmedia your internet has been rubbish recently with varying speeds as low as 5mb 1 minute then 95mb the next! Now it’s gone down completely! On top of not being able to speak with anyone I don’t feel that your service is worth it! #rubbishservice

@virginmedia Yep that’s funny. Really is. Do you not think I’ve not tried ringing you & only can do so on my mobile as no landline remember, on hold up to 40 mins+ & then cut off. You try it. It’s impossible to speak to a real person. WORST SERVICE EVER👎🏻

@virginmedia all services down AGAIN the quality of service from Virgin lately has been shocking multiple outages of tv/broadband. Not entirely sure what I'm paying for when I can't use it.

Come on @virginmedia We can’t work without a broadband connection and can’t even watch TV instead because that’s not working either. A problem all day that we were promised would be fixed by 4pm (DA7)

@virginmedia It's started working this morning after 24 hours down, bit strange that your website said there were no service issues anywhere 😒 I guess I'll cancel that engineer visit now.

@virginmedia I've tried calling you about my TiVo Box being distorted but it's impossible to speak to a human. Instead they text me a link to a useless FAQ. Can you help resolve it please?

(@1d06823a819848f) reported
@virginmedia He asked for the cancellation department, and finally got a seemingly helpful person! The issue was with the actual cable outside, she said she'd give him an email address to contact to pursue compensation, but it's just a link to virgin media's ofcom codes and policies 😞

@virginmedia as if the service couldn't get any worse, I've just recieved a "new" tivo box to replace the one taken by mistake. It has bits missing and definitely used. I've made a formal complaint but have to spend yet another night on the phone!!!!!

+@Eir got slated last week over waiting time to speak with a Customer Service Rep. My third day trying to contact a @Virgin Media Customer Service Rep, Tel 1908. Waiting time each day, each call of 60 minutes!!!!

@virginmedia Hi! No, the WiFi signal itself is OK. The Internet simply drops on it. The actual WiFi signal does not go down in this case. I understand 5ghz does not go through walls as well. It's like it is losing its IP lease from the router or something. Thanks!

I have come to the conclusion that @virginmedia customer service is crap after only being a customer for one week!
