-
Vishal Vaghjiani (@VaghjianiV23409) reported@virginmedia You already have all my details from the multiple complaints I’ve raised. I can DM you, but every time I do I get fobbed off and told to wait again. I’m not going back into DMs if the outcome is just more delays. This needs an actual resolution, not another loop of waiting.
-
Jemski (@jemski7) reported@virginmedia well done. You’ve lost me as a customer of 25 years because you wouldn’t supply me just broadband like you do for new customers. That’s is some ****** up priorities. Good riddance to you.

Phil (@philbreadin) reported@virginmedia how come my bill has jumped from £55 to £72 mid contract? I understand it's April and a small price increase is expected but £17 is taking the mick. With the issues I've had lately @sky is looking more tempting.
