  • vargadibacsi vargAdi (@vargadibacsi) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John! It's still not as stable as it used to be, somewhat better, but I was downloading from steam and my discord was lagging out hard, robotic voice, high ping etc. I really hope this will be addressed soon, as it feels like a let down.

  • SiobhanCoady3 Siobhan Coady (@SiobhanCoady3) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely disgusting how they have lie about there package Threatened my husband to cancel Account we have just move into our new home with a 5 year old and have been nothing but rude really can’t believe a company this big has treated us like this

  • jjbrownless Jess B (@jjbrownless) reported

    @virginmedia I mean you could offer your engineers over time as we both know. For one of the big providers, your installation service is laughable. No way I would recommend your services in the future. So unhelpful, you should be ashamed.

  • Bhoyalways11 Bhoyalways1 (@Bhoyalways11) reported from Milngavie, Scotland

    @virginmedia Delayed reply is great customer service by couple days, its fine now but issue was days ago with silence from virgin

  • RelicArray vsb (@RelicArray) reported

    @virginmedia upgraded my WiFi to the 350 yesterday and I can’t even stay online on Xbox for more than 2 minutes before it disconnects me, also there’s no known WiFi issues in my area…

  • RonCharlton6 Ron Charlton (@RonCharlton6) reported

    @virginmedia I have been o with them twice over last two days, first they blamed a national outage, but then changed when I said 2nd box was fine, so now it's the box, internet is no better, lost all 2g so still can't connect again blaming all other platforms which I doubt it very much

  • wdwfan1973 Annabel 💙🎧 (@wdwfan1973) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve had an issue with broadband constantly cutting out for over two weeks now. When that happens, I do anything. And seeing as I’m working from home this is it ideal.

  • LeckieSl Stewart (@LeckieSl) reported

    @virginmedia It's been OK since it was restored although it did go down (TV) late last night but only very temporarily I think.

  • dthurtell Daniel Thurtell (@dthurtell) reported

    @virginmedia Its now a daily thing through, morning, afternoon and night, though no problems in my area, but very few if any Virgin users on the WiFi scanner. Great upgrade and your system is not fit for purpose at the moment and we'll be moving on. All you get is sorry and try rebooting

  • MGGC2019 Mysterious Gamers (@MGGC2019) reported

    @virginmedia I didn't need to run a service test. Again if you follow the conversation I stated 5 comments ago that there was an issue in my area and I wanted to know what was going on why I was being told different times of a fix.
