  • jess_hillyard
    J H (@jess_hillyard) reported

    @virginmedia Tried this - I get passed around from team to team, I was told I was being put through to the customer experience team to voice my complaints and then was transferred to someone in billing who said there was no such department. Shambles.

  • jess_hillyard
    J H (@jess_hillyard) reported

    @virginmedia I will do so, in the meantime I still need clarity on the ongoing issues I’ve been experiencing with my WiFi - I’m still not receiving the service I’m paying for
