@virginmedia You do realise that the majority of messages sent to you are people complaining that your Wi-Fi is very poor? So perhaps concentrate on that for existing clients rather than pushing new sales? Poor router is the issue. #slowerfaraway

@virginmedia Not very helpful. If your company can’t fix the issue, why would the community be able to? Spent another hour on the phone again today, again being told I will get a call back in 45 mins. It didn’t happen. Still no email!

@AdamDea29742908 @virginmedia But buying one between £50 and £200 will probably suit most and if it turns out it doesn’t solve your problems it hasn’t broken the bank. I went for an Asus one at about £120. Netgear is another strong brand. I had poor WiFi for years and it was a massive improvement. 2/2

@virginmedia @mouthwaite Hi John; just jumping in on this. You really need to start advising customers properlyit doesn’t matter how many technicians visit it won’t solve the problem of the poor standard router and your default settings.

@VisctFishpond @virginmedia I had similar problems to you; got the runaround from Virgin. Lots of research done and the issue is almost certainly the router. You can buy a third-party router and turn the virgin router into a modem. Solved all my problems. Worth a try.

@virginmedia Honestly, do you think 2.92mb when I'm paying for 500mb is acceptable. Been a customer for 20 years, I can't wait to leave you!

@StMirrenDaft @virginmedia @mat_fraser One of the key issues is their router. It’s rubbish and has programming which means main signal isn’t direct for WiFi. I had this problem; buy another router and turn Virgin one into modem. It solved my problem.

@virginmedia Have you ever not been too busy? You have the worst customer service known to man. Every comedian compares bad customer service to you. You are the benchmark for bad. I have been trying to get in touch for five hours now. Chat, phone, Twitter and SMS.

@Lindzell_LFC @virginmedia It’s their router. All the calls in the world won’t change the problem. You can buy a new router abs connect it to the Virgin one. Worked for me.

Dear @virginmedia since you refuse to pick up your phones and there is no way to contact you I wish to cancel my broadband contract on march 05th. Please do not renew it.

Hi @virginmedia I have to wait 72 hours to speak to a manager about an issue. This is after 5 hours on the phone to you and only a manager can authorise what I need. Shocking considering the amount of money we pay you. We have no working broadband for a 2 key worker house

@virginmedia The only thing slower than my connection is your helpline. Thanks for very little, unreliable in broadband and customer service it seems.

@virginmedia You know the worse part. I’m a customer of 15 years and I’m having to wait 2 weeks and to top it off I couldn’t work and missed out on £24,000 profit because of not being able to use the internet from my PC!

@virginmedia Hi, you keep asking me to complete a post-installation feedback survey but sadly the link doesn't work and the little wheel just goes round and round. So my feedback is that your feedback page is broken. Please send me a better link and I will happily do it. thanx

4/ let's talk about that "promise" and the platitudes @virginmedia uses to attempt to mollify customers. One rep said he "promised" this issue would be resolved. But you know, it wasn't. I knew it wouldn't be. So I asked him to clarify how he plans to keep this promise...

@CraigLUFC77 @virginmedia @virginhelp That’s because they are a joke, zero customer service I’ve had an ongoing issue since November, still not resolved and not one email replied to. Cancel you direct debit, I’m sure they will contact you. Screen shot everything as they will lie about conversations

@justine_biggs @arabbadger @virginmedia Make a complaint on their website. They'll close it without making any effort to contact you. After 8 weeks you can escalate to cisas who should be able to get you compensation. I'm going through this process at the minute. It's the only way you'll get anything out of them.
