Breeda Murphy (@breeda_murphy) reported@MariaPIreland @longlostfamily @virginmedia Yes Maria.

Ailsa (@Ailsa56202286) reported@virginmedia I have had 3 conversations with your representatives on the phone in the last week promising a change on my account/ complaints email and none of them have followed through? Is anyone else finding the virgin media team to be totally USELESS. Will never be using again

Daniel (@TheWonderChildd) reported@virginmedia wanna explain my bill hike this month? And the lack of money back from the outage I had?
-
Christian Schmeer (@cschmeer) reported@virginmedia Thank you, but unfortunately there’s no alternative placement as the next power socket would be through a wall and 10 meters down the hallway, which might help with the overheating, but it all my network connections run to the cupboard by the entrance.
