@virginmedia Cheers. I’m not really that fussed about upgrades at the mo, but it occurred to me that your website’s been broken for, as I recall, about eight years, and maybe I should draw it to your attention :-) Have a good day!

@virginmedia Always good when you work from home and are told over the phone everything has been done to fix your internet speed, currently 1.67mbs and supposed to be 200mbs, and that the earliest a technician can come out is Monday! Great service, not. Time to switch providers.

@virginmedia Yesterday evening. It was a call centre in Asia, in which they couldn’t speak very good English and sounded scripted. Very impersonal and never called back. #virginmedia

@virginmedia Yes I did. They gave no reference number, but said I could call back if they never called me...nice...but no number or reference. Angelo in your call centre has all details. It was carried out by a third party of your sub contractor.

@virginmedia Absolutely disgusted with this service. Decided to change to another service provider, given 30 day notice only to find Virgin will not release the all important TELEPHONE NUMBER before 30 days up. How SPITEFUL Thanks for that😡

@virginmedia It’s obviously a localised equipment failure caused by the power fluctuation this afternoon, not “signal to noise” problems as your telephone operative said. Get an engineer out here and fix it now, please, @virginmedia

@virginmedia Rotten lousy spiteful behaviour. All because I have the freedom of choice as to whom my service provider will be. Virgin, you’ve done a sterling job in holding things up.....childish. Well done. Disgraceful.

Since upgrading to the best internet on @virginmedia the internet connection has been appalling!! Just cut out on my 9 year old’s zoom lesson with an author on world book day!! Why should I pay £6.99 for a booster when I’m paying for apparently the best!

@virginmedia I've seen you advising people to call with issues. When I call, it advises going online if you have issues? I've got intermittent quality on my broadband. I've tested online and reset. Is it possible to request a Hub 4?

@virginmedia New customer, online order 'cancelled' & placed manually by telesales operator (commission??), delivery now postponed by 3 weeks. New details wrong (extra charges) - no one cares or listens - can't speak to anyone! Poor customer service - having second thoughts!

@virginmedia @Hpsaucy515 Please catch up with your tech team @virginmedia they are saying there is a known issue with Apple and Virgin. Not sure if this is even true, but customer service taking 48 hours to call back and not able to resolve anything.

@virginmedia Nothing on service status AC, we’ve had a multitude of broadband problems for a whole year now (obviously all the more crucial when you have home schooling and working from home). Getting constant disconnects and slow speeds even after a hub reset

@virginmedia To be fair it’s a fairly consistent issue daily, with intermittent drop outs. By the time we have made contact with customer services it’s back on. This does seriously hamper our career progress.
