VA4 altimeter always wrong

The altimeter on my VA4 is always wrong. Multiple times has it been showing -10 to -60m when Im standing at sea level and at my house (around 30m above sea) it can show anything from 0 to 80m, sometimes even negative values here too. 

I've read that it can be reset through opening an activity and waiting 30s after the GPS has locked, this adjusts it a bit, but never accurate enough. (e.g. once it went from -40 to -10m when I reset it at the beach).

Is this ever accurate for anyone or is it always this bad?
