    @virginmedia your customer service is awful. Emma was damn right rude on the phone and cut me off on purpose. I suggest is retrained on customer service skills as she has none. There is no need to be patronising to a customer.

    @virginmedia I did someone called Nathan came in and then has been silent ever since. So closed down and came back here.

  • SiARees NotSoSlimSi (@SiARees) reported

    @virginmedia I never received the message to say that the pack was arriving either. Left the house to move some more boxes over and got a text saying it was delivered as I arrived at the old house. Said they'd left a card with details of where it was, but they hadn't. Luckily I found it.

  • honeymonster777 honeymonster777 (@honeymonster777) reported

    @virginmedia Morning, our broadband service keeps dropping for a minute or so every 5-10 mins. Your status checker says all is well but streaming pauses, mobiles drop the WiFi and my work video calling freezes. Can you advise please? Postcode is RM12 5DU. Thx

  • callsure Callsure - John Webb (@callsure) reported

    @virginmedia There is no council permissions required. My case is not complex. Your team simply failed to deliver and without explanation. If you had even a modicum of decency you would arrange to call me to update me on exactly what is being done to resolve my issue. #Virginmediafail

  • Inquisitor_Euro Inquisitor_Euro (@Inquisitor_Euro) reported

    @furbabygirl I haven't watched anything on TV for more than 5 years nor have I watched anything produced by the BBC. The BBC should be made into an optional opt in service like Sky, Virgin Media etc...

  • nikobe Nik Bailey (@nikobe) reported

    So our @virginmedia line was damaged a bit by a neighbour down the street but they want US to go talk to them about it ha
