Phil not Bob (@Bob71136804) reported@Benleo @virginmedia They are the pitts. Had a bad experience with them years ago and have never used any Virgin product since.
-
Sarah 🌼 & RIP Jasper 🐾 (@madcow42) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Sky are no better, impossible to get to speak with anyone from their call centre that actually speaks clear English. I admit I've put the phone down several times because I cannot understand a word they say.
-
Laura (@Laura92492442) reported@Benleo @virginmedia Try @NatWindscreens they would give Virgin a run for their money. Tried calling 5 times - different person each time- 5 calls today, 3 emails and voice mail. They have taken my money, realised that window screen needs calibration and offered date in TWO weeks. 3rd world service
-
Kate Cooper (@katecooper1957) reported@SimonBird73 @Benleo @virginmedia They’re absolutely awful Impossible to understand
-
Marcus (@MarcusMarianoo) reported@virginmedia internet issues for 2 weeks now and still no update, very inconsistent when checking service status too, it goes from intermittent to everything ok every few times I check it?
-
Ben Leo (@Benleo) reportedCongrats to @virginmedia for being perhaps the WORST company I’ve ever had the misfortune of dealing with in Britain. Three engineer visits, five plus calls to Indian call centres, and still you can’t activate the TV contract you upsold me when I simply called to get my connection back. Awful, awful business model.
-
Iain Lawrie (@IainLawrie51) reported@virginmedia Thank you Vigin Media for spoiling the end of the PGA Tournament, WIFI kept cutting out near the close of the Tournament so don't know who won, shoddy service to say the least, why should we pay for a mediocre service, not fit for purpose.

Melody Richards 🇬🇧🏴 (@Melody9Earth) reported@Benleo @Scott7507064635 @virginmedia I once had Virgin Media broadband (because there was no alternative in the area) and I had the same awful experience with them. I hate them and would never use them again.
