  • originalkitten 🌸🐾originalkitten 🐾🌸 (@originalkitten) reported from Formby, England

    When the world is struggling cause of the pandemic but more people have invested in tv & streaming services @virginmedia & @netflix have written to me saying they are putting their prices up. Such empathy #ReadTheRoom #pandemic #Wtf

  • 2003mirror Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia I think the problem is that the time it is taking to get through or even an on line query, I thought speaking to you may help I do appreciate in the difficult times it can be a problem for us all

  • mand102 Amanda Archer (@mand102) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia Seriously, what the hell is going on with the WiFi in Haydock, St Helens, Merseyside. Loss of connection 5 times in the last half an hour. App says no issues! Get it sorted!!!!

  • 2003mirror Lord David Hurn (@2003mirror) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Yes that’s correct, last time he sent signal and said it is okay, I no it is not the tv or usb wire as both have been replaced

  • humfmeister Reysan 💙 (@humfmeister) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia is this a genuine call about router speed asking me to download speed test and a quick support app. Surely you can test my broadband speeds?

  • Sarahsgracesmum Clare Marie Watson (@Sarahsgracesmum) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia tv and broadband dropping in and out. Whenever I call I just get a call centre faraway telling me they've restarted it and that should fix it. It's not. #veryfrustrated

  • CompleteGoober Gary Pickles (@CompleteGoober) reported

    @virginmedia Three weeks this has been ongoing now. I was told it would be resolved within 24-48 hours a week ago. Why should I pay for something that doesn't work?

  • FCChristie Dr Fiona Christie (@FCChristie) reported

    @virginmedia Very slow progress. Raised problem with your team 7 days ago (24 hours after being unable to get into email). The account holder on phone for an hour today but to no avail. Apparently only your cms web team can fix it. Seems like a waste of our time and your staff?

  • nigelhowardpics Nigel Howard 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 📸 🇺🇸🌴 (@nigelhowardpics) reported
