  • priya_kaur_uk Priya 🌸 (@priya_kaur_uk) reported

    Is anyone on Sky or BT for broadband? I was hoping to go with @virginmedia but surprisingly they don't service my new area 🥺

  • Strikketanten Strikketanten 🐐🐈🦡🐳🦕 (@Strikketanten) reported

    @virginmedia Why do you need a webchat to cancel a subscription from date of death? Most other companies are perfectly capable of doing just that.

  • Bcfc_jim_1990 Jim (@Bcfc_jim_1990) reported

    @virginmedia Tomorrow I am working and I will be driving for most of the day so won’t be available at these times… please can I have a call off someone Tuesday or Atleast an e-mail my complaint number is C200822480 reference C180822612… this query has been going on over a week now

    @virginmedia why does virgin media website always say there is not an issue with the internet when everbody in the area does not have it! Really frustrating 😤

  • CyphersSonic Cyphers.Sonic (@CyphersSonic) reported

    @SamtheMan6259 @virginmedia dont be rude to the broadband company with the funny name :( (replying to you using virgin media wifi.)

  • TonyHomewood Tony Homewood🇺🇦🇮🇱🇬🇧⚒ (@TonyHomewood) reported

    @Jackal854 @VirginMoney If it's as bad as @virginmedia it must be bad

  • gesichtzeintopf JabbaJorkayev (@gesichtzeintopf) reported

    @virginmedia What do I need this number for. There are a couple of troubleshooting steps outlined on your webpage that I’ve done and they didn’t help. Why would I spend more time to have a robot tell me that your service is crap?!

  • MobileJustice Drew Pettifer (@MobileJustice) reported

    @virginmedia why is your service so rubbish, why is your Internet always dropping, why is your TV service on demand hit and miss? Why when I rang to cancel my service after my contract expired I still have your rubbish service and your are charging me for it?
