    @virginmedia hi there how come we pay for 200 mb broadband and constantly only get 24 mb then we rest the system and it’s fine 24 hrs later same problem getting very upset with it, please sort it or I’m off to BT. #poorservice

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Yes done as above. Still agonising slow. Cannot send attachments on emails.

    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Sort of, but I had trouble logging in as it uses an old email address that I no longer use.

    @GarnhamLauren @virginmedia As soon as you ask something they don’t want they just completely ignore you 🧐 i can’t believe how awful they have been

  • FolkardSimon
    Simon Folkard (@FolkardSimon) reported from Colchester, England

    @krista_leia I don't know what to believe anymore, he told me on Sunday that Virgin Media were comping to fix it but it's now so bad i cannot even connect it. I can get wi-fi installed here just for me, but you usually need a phone line and the cost is going to be fairly high.

    Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia @ruskin147 It’s also affecting your 4G mobile data service so every time your broadband goes down so does the 4G and we lose all of our internet access.

    kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Not worth it if you cared it would have been dealt with I will leave and tell everyone and anyone to avoid your NOT customer caring company

  • only_jokering
    Adam (@only_jokering) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia all our smart devices are now not responding because "they are too far away from our HUB 3.0". This is according to the diagnostic tool. Thing is, they are the same distance as before, and they used to work on the same router. Help?

  • Greenking66
    Chris Green (@Greenking66) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I done the scan and the signal upstairs is weak and very very slow😕

  • EveScott1
    Eve Scott (@EveScott1) reported from Felixstowe, England

    @virginmedia Yes, having trouble with both, there is just not a good WiFi signal upstIrs. I pay for the highest speed and quite frankly it’s rubish. You have to wat on the phone for hours

  • kennythekilt
    kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia So what is happening I want to cancel my account

  • saharasplash
    lauren schaefer (@saharasplash) reported from Purdis Farm, England

    Last time I try and get your attention, please can you help with the above @virginmedia as you've taken our money but not replying

  • BrunningLee
    Lee Brunning (@BrunningLee) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia Who knows but certain people with in your team have been very flippant about our situation and trying to palm us off with a 20pound credit. This is nowhere near acceptable considering the stress and upset your so called customer service team has put us through.

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Sorry, I have done as above. It is still agonisingly slow. Cannot access emails properly. Cannot send attachments. It is the broadband that is the problem. TV is fine.

  • matt40k
    Matt Smith (@matt40k) reported from Ipswich District, England

    Ok so, virgin media router kinda sucks, if I use the Bt SmartHub 2, it would basically just be a Wi-fi access point, so would need a like a rpi for dhcp Or I could just buy a google nest Wi-fi or something ubiquiti

  • kavi1238

  • leezaloops
    Leeza Morley (@leezaloops) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Absolutely disgusting service from Virgin. Rang to get refund for sky sports since lockdown and no help whatsoever. And I can’t make a complaint apparently as it will be automatically closed!!

    @virginmedia Please can u let me know if Virgin emails are down? I can’t log into my account. I get this: “Your Virgin Media Mail account is currently unavailable. This is either because your Virgin Media Mail account is locked, or because you don’t have an active account with us

    @RobRollin2 @virginmedia Virgin Media's routers are garbage. As a result I've have only ever run mine in modem-only mode and provide my own wi-fi for my home. Works flawlessly.

    @virginmedia 51 days with you and 5 internet outages on April 4th, 6th, 12th, May 15th and yesterday which still not sorted today. How can you justify this shoddy level of service? Was with my previous provider for 10 years, 0 outages.

    @Benleo @ailsybabe @virginmedia Please make an example and put them in their place. Hopefully out of buisness. Horrible company, Virginmedia.

  • MDeLaBroc1
    Michael De La Broc (@MDeLaBroc1) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Last MARCH I went in store to enquire about a new, better priced broadband contract or to disconnect. I was going abroad for at the time, but wanted something better when I got back, I was sold on a new contract. Apparently my previous account should have been closed there and then. In September my service is cut off with no explanation, I do most of my work online so this is obviously bad, I got in contact, turns out my direct debit was still going to the supposedly cancelled account, not the current one, for the next three months I have a never ending series of chats on the phone or online chatbot to try and figure out what is going on. I can't log into virgin media online, because the credentials I used, take me to a placeholder screen, because the account is deleted or something, I don't know, no one can tell me. I go abroad in December, come back in January, same problem, the internet is disconnected for ''non payment'', all payments, are still, going to a an account that was supposed to be deleted or merged into my current one a year ago. every other month I am having to redo the same chat on their chatbot, followed by a customer complaints phonecall with some arrogant Indian who barely speaks English and doesn't understand what I am trying to tell him. And every month this goes on for, they are charging me a £7 late fee and even letter saying the price for the contract I am barely receiving service from is going up due to inflation. Truly is an absolute travesty this company, I am just going to cut the entire thing loose and go to StarLink the next time this happens, which I expect will be in two weeks going by the near monthly disconnects I am put through
