@bt_uk @skytv I’m looking to leave @virginmedia as they don’t want to give us a good deal after being loyal customers for 20 years. What can you offer us? Any guarantees for broadband quality? I can’t stand the moaning when the WiFi signal goes on the PS5 !Kids Working from home

Unprivate my account to get a hold of @virginmedia . Please do something about your customer service. This time around, it should be more efficient. 45 minutes waiting in line only to get disconnected.

@virginmedia The Wi-fi is rubbish, slow and crap service up stairs. Often I have to connect to extenders. It’s a two story average house. Your routers are rubbish. The older ones were much better!!

@virginmedia No service issues and my other half has said the ping test hard wired by an Ethernet cable is coming back with 0.11’s 0.3 0.5 0.31. The house we are in is a small 2 up 2 down and devices drop out intermittently, it’s really annoying.

@virginmedia Yes it was a known issue but you didn’t admit it, the recorded massage was changed twice a day to say it would be fixed by 3pm then 9am the next day when people that had spent 2 hours on the phone to speak to an actual person had been told it would be down all week

@virginmedia It says it all the time that there is no issues in the area which i find hard to believe as the internet is terrible at times. I have wifi boosters to which cut out also ideally need an engineer to sort these issues out.

@virginmedia The issue wasn’t with my connection, it was with your service for the pay per view fight, which meant I missed every fight other than the main event. How do I apply for a refund?

@virginmedia I was not a subscriber to the event last night but often have similar issues with other channels/tv shows/recordings. Is it worth calling customer service to try and get this issue resolved?

@virginmedia Hope you apologise to your significant other better than that. My point is the first half of your tweet is making claims that the problem wasn't as bad as it was. The issue persisted most of the night. Adding "we apologise" on end isn't an apology really is it.
