  • Horwichbloke My name is Michael (@Horwichbloke) reported from Horwich, England

    @sinners40 @virginmedia As soon as I saw an engineer messing about with the service box in front of my house, I knew I'd be in trouble. Supposed to be a upgrade to my service. Going well isn't it!

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia No. I don't think it's a broadband issue but it certainly has me foxed. I feel it's an Android version issue.

  • keiranb1 Keiran (@keiranb1) reported from Boothstown, England

    @bt_uk I thought virgin media’s customer services was bad but my god bt tops the list, 1st advisor calls me a liar. Then the second one put the phone down on me after telling me no manager will take my call! @MartinSLewis

  • M__Griffiths Michael Griffiths (@M__Griffiths) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Not been given anything. I called Friday regarding my bill. Left my contact details and was told within 48 hours I would get a call back. I was hoping to not have to escalate to a complaint and for it to be dealt with via the manager who was going to call me.....WITHIN 48 HOURS!
