-
Peter Miller (@PeteinExeter) reported@virginmedia absolutely disgusting that we have no tv or broadband until tomorrow afternoon. I can’t wait to move house so we never have to use you again !!
-
DippyP1 #CV1 (@DippyMMA12) reported@DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Oh, it took you 18 years to realise they couldn't give a **** about you as a customer?
-
Wistern1337 (@wistern1337) reportedSickening it's still hard for customers leave your service despite being fined by the UK government £28m I moved away from your service in March to a new provider. I have been charged over £300 for unused services. Refund refused. Never sign up to ripoff Virgin! @virginmedia
-
Knapp (@KnappTweets) reported@virginmedia fix your damn WiFi, I pay like 100 a month for some bullshit that don’t work
-
GrandaJoe (@GrandaJoe0224) reported@Harjam10 @virginmedia They have always been ****. So bad I moved to Sky!

m a t t (@weyland76) reportedHow do you know when your @virginmedia internet is not working? It's a day that ends in "Y". 🤬
-
(((Evs))) (@Tory_Brexit69) reported@virginmedia broadband is not working in Greater Manchester area. Never buy broadband from Virgin Media. Top tip. 👍
-
Alexander Dumas 🏴 (@Alexand68647317) reported@DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt I had a very similar experience with them. They are only interested in new customers and not retaining the ones they already have. I left, pay a fraction of what I used to, and will never do business with them again. Great business model for going bust.
-
Alex (@AJ01991) reported@Simon_Whale @virginmedia They’re dodgy as ****, I had total loss of service for over a month, they kept closing my complaints saying it was resolved after I explicitly said not to. They also kept saying it was fixed when it wasn’t to avoid paying compensation.
