@virginmedia can you help me with a broadband technical issue. I have 200Mb, power cycle the router daily and still by the end of the day end up with super slow speeds. Less than 1Mb tonight. Thanks.

@virginmedia 2 weeks back with you and my signal keeps dropping almost every single day, best internet provider. I think I have grounds to terminate my contract. What a joke

@markcatchlove @virginmedia Very much doubt it Mark; like I say- they have the market sewn up so can treat their existing customers with contempt.

@virginmedia Hey its been like this for a while. I have the power socket scheduled to restart every night, but it isn't helping. Ive also reset to factory settings numerous times as well as try different wireless channels. WiFi is only part of the problem though as the issue exists on cable

@virginmedia just had a very frustrating afternoon with your call centre trying to dump our landline which we never use. After 13 years as a customer it is particularly galling to then see on the comparison sites how much more you value new customers.

@virginmedia #virginmediasaga on hold to yourselves again. #youneednewholdmusic. Although I do find it ironic that you play a song with the lyrics 'I'm a sucker for you. The only suckers are the customers like me that can't seem to get issues resolved! #virginmedia #thieves

So your staff forgot to cancel my service properly and then conveniently raised two new bills rather than giving us the 70 pound you owe us. 2 X managers and not a clue between any of them #virginmedia #thieves #makethecustomerpayforyourmistakea

Dreadful sales call from @virginmedia. I need broadband, Sky & BT sports. Best deal requires having a load of unwanted extras apparently. No attempt to qualify my needs just clearly underpaid & commission desperate sales staff relying on a very bad script. #badservice #badselling

@DuskyMoko @virginmedia it's so ****. does anyone have a phone with a good data plan that could be temporarily used as a mobile wifi hotspot?

@virginmedia your internet service is extremely poor and then I’m told you guys don’t guarantee WiFi & try to upsell me a product that also doesn’t guarantee a stable connection. Customer service is abysmal & your offshore call centre is far from helpful. Absolutely fuming 😡

@virginmedia Not unhappy with current offers. It's just that as an existing customer of 17+ years they're not available to me. When I look on My @Virginmedia page to see what I can get, it just says call. But one can spend hours on multiple calls that get cut off after holding for an hour.

Trying to get a refund for my recently widowed 87yr old mother in law from @virginmedia which really shouldn’t even be an issue. 1hr 30mins on the phone, 4 different customer advisors and no further. Embarrassing and a little degrading @BAFTA

.@virginmedia, true fibre broadband, 1GB, coming to my property, but yet, no news from @OpenreachHelp regarding #FTTP. In conclusion, Virgin has the money to install FTTP, OpenR doesn't. I suspect it will install eventually, but being a customer, disappointed it is not sooner :(

@virginmedia I’ve been waiting for an agent for over an hour now on your Live Chat - why does it take so long? This is totally unacceptable customer service
