    @virginmedia Service page says no problem. Now it's better but been having severe issues for the last three days in a row.

  • mrtyntyrnt mchlgddrd (@mrtyntyrnt) reported

    Being flooded with scam calls for @virginmedia ‘technical support’, no doubt looking to capitalise on the pandemic. Withheld number so can’t realistically report it. When I’m in charge, it will be illegal to withhold your number.

  • jonnylovin jonny dickens (@jonnylovin) reported

    @virginmedia I have several times, your customer service is despicable. I’ve been a customer for many years and I can’t get a simple solution.
