Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia No, they just left. Rang your customer service they are now telling me the problem is internal. I’ve had no internet since July, no tv since August. It’s beyond a joke now. 5 visits I’ve had.

Jemima (@JemimaCamhs) reported from Garston, England@virginmedia Hi, will this continued investment mean finally getting signal in my area? It’s a central area and the signal is awful. Thanks
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@jenwahkiddles @virginmedia Pity they didn’t do it for us, had no tv or broadband for over 3 months and can’t even get the compensation they owe us, plus the direct debits they took knowing we had total loss of service. Shambolic company.

-
Spencer Harbar (@harbars) reportedeight minutes and counting with easily the worst customer service from @virginmedia who do everything to avoid actually listening to what a customer says and wastes their time
-
Magic A-J (@Johnsonio) reported@virginmedia wasted my time talking to your customer services. My contract is up, you’re offering me same package for £27pm online and asked customer service for a better deal and they offer me £43pm! Guess I’ll go elsewhere then
-
Sam Rees (@SamReesO) reported@virginmedia @eirwenjulia Perhaps… refund the downtime and fix it? That would be super helpful..
-
John Bird (@John_L_Bird) reported@virginmedia This is not an acceptable solution having to crowd around an ipad when customers have paid to watch it on their TVs. Seems it was the same last week for the league cup games? Given all the problems Virgin had with the red button in the past this is really poor.
-
Keith Tracy (@KeithT3103) reported@bmstewart2004 I cancelled my Virgin Media contract at £125, a week of my ignoring their calls I spoke with them and agreed a new contract at £40. Never let it roll over more than one year
