    Given most people are now WFH, what has to happen for @virginmedia to become reliable? 3 days of issues now directly impacting my ability to work and then impacting how long I have to work to catch up... !!

  • hannahiscontent Hannah Mason (@hannahiscontent) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @virginmedia During this pandemic you have not altered your customer service one bit to recognise that we need you to be consistent reliable and supportive. When it is over we will remember organisations who helped us through and those who didn’t. You didn’t.

  • KatShipley_ Katharine Shipley (@KatShipley_) reported from Leeds, England

    The worst company I have ever dealt with @virginmedia Not only does their internet service not meet their commitments they believe it’s ok for fraudulent activity to happen on your account and penalise the customer for this. Where do I go next to take further as @MartinSLewis ?

  • KatShipley_ Katharine Shipley (@KatShipley_) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Change back our tariff, very good of you seeing as we never changed it in the first place. And £50 ‘goodwill’ refund, when you have taken £150 and counting on new bill for your mistake you owe us the full amount not a gesture of ‘goodwill’ !! Just shocking. No resolution on WiFi
