@virginmedia your WiFi and service is a disgrace. Constant outage, hopeless WiFi range, unreachable "support". And now you're putting my bill up? Utter joke.

@virginmedia would like to thank you for your customer service. Over 15 years of money from me. 50% price rise. I would like to leave please. No problem. All booked for you. Good bye. Wish I could afford to treat my customers like that.

Very excellent service from Linzi in the Longbenton call centre today, got my upgrade sorted and we had a good little chat as well whilst she was sorting things. Made me feel a lot better for spending the time I did on hold. @virginmedia

@virginmedia I was told that I would be called back by a manager #lies Now due to further incompetence you have cut off my Internet & phone service. Claiming that I haven't paid a bill when there's a direct debit set up! #diabolical service. I've never been treated so poorly.

@virginmedia They raised a complaint and nothing was done about it, they probably didn’t even listen to the call where I was sold the product, if they did it would have been dealt with

@virginmedia thought you restored your services. Running really badly. Saying we are in the 1gig package but getting 8mbps is a bit of an issue. Upload speed is faster than download. #virginmedia

@virginmedia Some websites work, some dont. Fix this and stop sending out false information. The false information is worst than the issue itself. Come clean.
