  • esjexe Siobhan Fitzgerald-Gibson (@esjexe) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia Intermittent broadband service for 24 hours, no contact or apology, and when I called your customer service rep said it wasn't on the status page because "it only affects 25% of customers." Your company should be up in front of Ofcom.

  • sami_chanchan Sami Channon (@sami_chanchan) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia @Ofcom @TradeStandards just called to try & cancel my plan as I have just been evicted. you don’t supply my new flat but want to charge me £250, your agent was so rude and refused to transfer me to a manager. Thanks for making a hard time worse!

  • Tulley122 Dave Tulley (@Tulley122) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia tv not working any help

  • MrBrianRoe Brian Roe (@MrBrianRoe) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia No, not at the moment! Guess what? Yep, your broadband is down in my area in #brighton. Well done, sterling service. You must be really proud. I have artwork to upload to my website and can't. And all you are going to do is say "sorry". That really won't help, it'll irritate.

  • mrgarrett100 Lee Garrett (@mrgarrett100) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia you guys are truly the worst... move the service to you with 6 weeks notice and you don't have it ready - suggesting we wait 16 days until you're ready with no service as we've cut the other provider?????

  • MrBrianRoe Brian Roe (@MrBrianRoe) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia You maybe there, but you'll drop the call...again, and again, and then once more for luck. Bloody awful expireince trying to phone you. Not something I'm willing to repeat.
