  • PaulW_1 Paul Williams✈️ (@PaulW_1) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Hi yes it is and for once it’s not Virgin fault. Rang Yodel before and to cut a long story short as Virgin paid for the premium service we will have it by 19:00 tonight. Shock it’s 19:00 and still waiting for the delivery from @YodelOnline we’re going to ring Yodel again🤬🤬

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Same issue if I'm home, which I'm not at the moment. Incredibly frustrating that the only place I have pathetic Wi-Fi access is in my own home.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @Aeroson_ Well said mate, but getting back to virgin media being crap 🤣🤣🤣

  • Mark29HT Mark Danylczuk (@Mark29HT) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Delivery driver who came to drop off packaging to return your equipment was very rude indeed. Aggressively banged on my door with the packaging and so abrupt. Appalling.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Lots of times but a long time ago, your support can't fix it all they care about is you are getting a good speed and I am, but obviously it's not good for gaming, the hub 2 was better but you moved on to the hub 3, not good.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia I have had enough of @virginmedia gaming is a disaster, not every now and then, every night every game always lagging 1 on 1 shootouts forget it, I have been in touch with your support 100s of times, I get sick of answering the same questions, your equipment is garbage, bye.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia It is not the speed that is the problem, it is the router that is the problem, it is garbage it lags like mad every game is trash I probably played 1 game last night I just back out of them all the time.

  • funkytownlondon FunkyTown (@funkytownlondon) reported from Manchester, England

    @corblimey22 @virginmedia @vmbusiness Someone close to me having the same Problem with BT 😐 it’s 2019 ffs

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Reboot all the time, it is crap broadband.

  • xmatt_ Matthew Catterall (@xmatt_) reported from Manchester, England

    @b33rdy @act5scene3 @virginmedia Always do the speed test but make sure it's wired as I work for an ISP and wireless speeds mean jack shit.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Forget that sorry but your router is CRAP and you know ut cheap shit.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Just started gaming, played 5 games backed out of 5 games, lag, lag, lag, come on Virgin sort your crap Broadband out this is so boring and predictable.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia This is the experience I have had of VM ever since I can remember, but it was either you or 6mbps with phone line, but soon I will have fttp with @SkyUK or some other @EE but deffo not you, never ever again @virginmedia.

  • Doublejayz72 James Jackson (@Doublejayz72) reported from Manchester, England

    You know what I love about @virginmedia they are not content with being rubbish.....not at all. They are constantly thinking of ways to be worse, no Broadband for 3 days and do they care... nope. Hats off to them for breaking boundaries and proving crap just isn’t good enough

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Does it matter what you see, it might matter to microsoft, I buy your internet for gaming, that's it if you get ripped by microsoft that's your problem you sort it that's why I we pay for you GAMING🖕

  • RealClareB Clare 🐝 (@RealClareB) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Apparently there is an issue in the area. It’s happened quite a few times and as I work from home a lot, losing a half day of work time is very frustrating.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Tried everything asked everything, I have had VM for 10 years it's not been brilliant you seem to provide equipment that is not tried and tested, that hub 3 router has to be the worst ever you can't even open all the recomended ports on it, look at the hub 3 forums.

  • TCarroll1969 Tony Carroll (@TCarroll1969) reported from Salford, England

    @BradHoward3 @virginmedia They CAN'T be that bad...

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Lag, gaming is crap, your broadband is fast but not a gaming broadband, remember all your gaming 200 and all the other crap.

  • toewad1 toewad1 (@toewad1) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Right, the only known issues is Virgin Media, tonight I have played 1 full game the other 10 I have backed out of, so my question is what are vm going to do about it, not reset hub, open ports, allow dmz all that crapjust give me what I pay for a gaming broadband like advertised

  • HarryPimlott Horace Cooper (@HarryPimlott) reported

    @LozzaFox @virginmedia We have been with them since they known as NTL back in the day customer service was good now since it's been Virgin Media they dont seem to care. The just want your money. Customer service is very poor. There overseas call centres are shocking.

  • scchambers Steve Chambers (@scchambers) reported

    @virginmedia “Superhub” - what an absolute joke! How can I cancel your **** service without queuing on the phone for 8 hours?!

  • Gormando_ Chris G (@Gormando_) reported

    @virginmedia I cant get through to the team that's the issue. The last time I called I had to hang up after 37 minutes of waiting to get through. I've done all of the usual troubleshooting, resetting hub etc however the wifi coverage to an upstairs bedroom in a small house is horrific

  • rustytoole Gordon (@rustytoole) reported

    @virginmedia is there problems in the ML5 2LS area? I have just been kicked out and can’t access any longer! I also didn’t receive an update to tell me that there were going to b disruptions

  • maxonahigh Maxonahi 🌹 (@maxonahigh) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve bought your best package no one is in my house and I’m skipping all over my screen? You guys are ******* ****

  • ayresie__ Ayresie (@ayresie__) reported

    There's no where else but virgin media that do a higher upload speed than about 7 in my area But yet the congestion is awful with virgin media and I get about 5k dropped frames an hour What ******** do I do now then :/

  • ChunksOfButt Butt Chunks 💙 (@ChunksOfButt) reported

    @BenHurst @virginmedia @davidschneider There is a triage process. You could end up talking to multiple people/bots before you get your problem solved. It's a joke.

  • Angel532218790 Angel5 (@Angel532218790) reported

    @virginhelp @LongJayne @virginmedia Thank you for getting back to me. I finally got through and my problem was resolved quickly

  • tomlloydwrites Tom Lloyd (@tomlloydwrites) reported

    download test reports speed of 0.34mb on this supposed 50mb broadband. Kids can't work, parents can't work, Virgin media's only solution is to restart the router again and again.

  • noodles78 nicola golding (@noodles78) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam This is £16 more expensive than Virgin Media who are offering more for their package. I don’t understand why I’m being pushed away from a company I’d love to stay with but who want to charge me a third more for exactly the same service they were providing before?
