  • BruceAliG Jamescox321 (@BruceAliG) reported

    @virginmedia you gunna sort out internet out mate it’s been 40 minutes and we have paid for this ****

  • oraclematt Matt Searle (@oraclematt) reported

    @virginmedia I'm not saying its not in your T&Cs. I'm not saying that you said that you covered all properties. What I'm saying is that where the customer has no way to stay with you, charging £240 to leave is wrong. I'd stay if I could but if you ever cover the new home, I won't be back

  • nemmeros bills (@nemmeros) reported

    @lukehaynes1995 @virginmedia I pay for the best service which costs me £70 a month, it tends to go off atleast 2 times a month just randomly with no reports of issues, they have no customer care apart from when you threaten to leave them

  • stephan78044886 Stephanie (@stephan78044886) reported

    @virginmedia once again your broadband service is the most miserable of all out there. It’s down in NN4. Again. Can’t wait to leave you guys for @EE @BT

  • ironmaiden1927 Lizzy B #axestogrind #orphan (@ironmaiden1927) reported

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to work with this 🤬 service?!?!? You are awful!

  • michaeljwright4 Mike Wright (@michaeljwright4) reported

    @virginmedia I've restarted it but it has started to crash (normally when I'm really getting into a programme), it is not receiving remote signal too well (yes I've changed batteries and tried a different remote). It's just knackered as I've had it for 8 years.
