  • tonymc39 Tony McDonough (@tonymc39) reported

    @david_harman_uk @virginmedia @Ofcom You can cancel via the webchat but be ready to set aside at least a couple hours. We had a bit for the first hour and then the real person strung things out. Important to shut down all attempts to get you into a discussion.

  • 595909Howe si.howe (@595909Howe) reported

    @virginmedia broadband & TV unavailable in the TW1 area since around 11am. According to the MyVirginMedia App you are working on the issue with an estimated fix by 8.35pm tonight, which isn’t good. Please can you advise what the issue is?

  • yashranade Yash Ranade (@yashranade) reported

    @virginmedia Furthermore, your customer care service is non-existent. All responses received thus far are automated - both via chat and on phone. Do you expect consumers to spend their workdays on hold for 3-4 hours just to get basic internet service?

  • nickyJphoto nicky Johnston (@nickyJphoto) reported

    @virginmedia , How many more Thursdays are you going to be improving my service in my area and turning my broadband off, its a joke!

  • shivendraind CA Shivendra (@shivendraind) reported

    @virginmedia is providing internet service but if I want to quit it they want a written letter to be sent and no option to write an email. Phone customer service has long wait and chat service won’t connect to an agent and says we will contact but they never

  • Linda34141205 Linda (@Linda34141205) reported

    @AlfiesBoots @virginmedia They actually won’t pay attention to your complaints that’s why I got @markfix_1 on Instagram to help me out with the same issue

  • ropey69 Richard Piercey (@ropey69) reported

    @virginmedia And you really think that that is acceptable? My wife uses her email for, work, finances, bookings, orders etc etc. We have done nothing wrong this has only happened since the outage of your Broadband on Monday. And, incidentally there was another outage yesterday
