@virginmedia #virginmedia spoke to a very nice lady today from Virgin media who wanted to know why I was leaving Virgin after 10 minutes of me complaining on how bad Virgin has been extending my contract and all sorts of things she did apologise but I said it wasn't her fault

@virginmedia It says there aren't any known issues but we have been struggling with it for the last few years - the service is just getting worse!

@virginmedia Think it's more to do with the upgrade work then; when I select Help from the Help & Settings menu, the screen goes blank. I'm thinking it needs a network connection to work. Any plans for a Hub with built in 02 sim to increase connectivity? Currently hot spotting my phone.

I've just had to suffer the same 4 songs,1 a poor cover of 'Where my Rosemary goes', on a loop, in 2,45 mins of waiting for @virginmedia to pick up. Within 10 mins of engineer fixing fault, its playing up again. Its also the end of my contract so I want to deal with it.

@thatmisterj @virginmedia I'm so sick of it I WILL be leaving Virgin. No-one picking up phone, Just saying there appears to be an intermittent fault. Well No **** Sherlock, I already know that. A dumb text telling me to do what I've already done. I'm not thick Virgin I just want the service I pay for.

@virginmedia I'm sorry for the two poor support staff who are trying to sell us new remote controls, routers and O2 sims - for more money - till we hit the nuclear option and say we're leaving to get what we're asking? We're loyal customers; why does it need to get to that?

Please @virginmedia can you change your waiting music. Its the same 4 tracks adnauseum & very poor quality at that. No wonder customers who wait for over an hour hang up. Its enough to drive you mad with these earworms all day.

@virginmedia any chance you can get your website to work? Change Package Chat does nothing! Links sent via mail do not work! Hyperlink sent by text doesn’t work! Call centre (working from home in India?) worse than useless! Ever heard of Customer Centric design? #Useless

@virginmedia for a media company that sells amazing broadband, your website is terrible. Just goes in circles, doesn't let you change packages online. Terrible.

@virginmedia what is going on with the internet on The Wirral? Is there an ongoing issue? Tried multiple resets and followed online instructions and it keeps disconnecting. Is this your end or ours? Thanks.

(@ScottBatemanArt) reported
@virginmedia I can't check it when it's down as I can't get on the internet. I have to switch the hub off and on at least twice a day to reset it. I've been a customer since the old telewest days, but seriously thinking about having a phone line installed and going somewhere cheaper.

Apparently @virginmedia are doing service improvements - did you not think to inform customers of this ahead of time?

@ScottBatemanArt @virginmedia I'm having exactly the same issue. At least four times a week. Just waiting for it to reboot at the hub again now. Been happening for over a year. Keep reporting and told the same thing! Just give me a new hub!! It may work.

@virginmedia @virginmedia issue was resolved in 1 minute after agent returning from break, surely could have waited 1 more minute before taking his break!!! If the agent is due a break maybe tell the customer this before starting the conversation!!!
