Awful latency and wildly varying speedtests

I've been with Virgin since moving into a new house about a 6mths ago. Had a bit of a nightmare getting going but the internet has been mostly fine since although I can tell it's far from perfect.

The one exception has always been gaming - I don't play a massive amount but whenever I fire up FIFA or COD I just get constant high ping or jitter warnings. The xbox is connected by ethernet.

I'm using the virgin hub 3 in modem only mode with 3 google wifi pods throughout the house but the issues are seen on wired connections.

Weird thing is my speedtest results are MASSIVELY different based on who I test with. (all done at a similar time) Ookla : 300 down, 36 up, Download Latency 93, Upload Latency 55 fast.com : 26 down, 34 up, Latency 19ms, Loaded 1.1s(!!) Google search speedtest : 3.3 down, 10 up, latency 75ms

My google home wifi test says 368down, 368 up

I'm on an M350 package with Virgin. Downloading files seem fine, VC is fine (I work from home). I'm guessing there's something in my latency causing issues but not sure why some speedtests are so low.

Any advice on how I can address this? I tried pointing this out to Virgin but they were no use at all and just seemed to suggest since my ookla speeds were fine everything was OK.

Thanks!

I can see from pinging 8.8.8.8 my latency is all over the place
