  • JurassicGarden Char (@JurassicGarden) reported from Didcot, England

    The worst part of Lockdown wasn't the loneliness, the boredom or the agitation. It was seeing ******* Birdseye, McCain's and Virgin Media shoving happy family lockdown vibes down your throat to advertise themselves.

  • lucy_spalton Lucy Spalton (@lucy_spalton) reported from Fleet, England

    @virginmedia Has everything gone down in Fleet? GU51

    @virginmedia your WiFi box is rubbish, we keep loosing signal. Dreadful service. Do not recommend 😡

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called, but that provided no help. I was told I’d get a callback from a team closer to the issue in 24 hours - which has since passed. Honestly, not a good start and I’ve not got service yet!

  • AlistairNCox Al (@AlistairNCox) reported from Crowmarsh Gifford, England

  • Neeknowsbest Kim (@Neeknowsbest) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia Hi. I have has my your chat open for 24 hours, sent a text message 36 hours ago and no response to either. As a new customer, with a query, this is not a good start.

  • inmilla68 Inmita Medina (@inmilla68) reported from Didcot, England

    @virginmedia 1hour waiting the first time and disconnected. This is the second time, still on the phone and waiting 55min. It is pretty much the whole day wasted trying to talk to customer services. Can you please help?

  • kirsten_willis Kirsten Willis BEM (@kirsten_willis) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia what is so difficult about customer service these days? Spent the last 4 days going through the repetitive process of checking out WiFi connection, eventually got a number to call TL get cut off after a 30 min wait! Not impressed!

  • Rochdale_Cowboy Craig (@Rochdale_Cowboy) reported from Maidenhead, England

    @virginmedia All fine now - but TBH we're probably going to cancel. Our contract is up its going up from £70 to £85/month. To sign a new deal is a £82. Your offer to new customers is £45. I can't be bothered with this hassle every few months so am looking at sky. Thanks for checking though 👍

  • rockyrobin1982 Robin Conway (@rockyrobin1982) reported from Bracknell, England

    Hey @itv and @virginmedia. Could you please highlight the #WeMakeEvents campaign along with your footage and advertising of V festival coverage? As without support there won’t be another one to broadcast. #lightinred

  • tomasquith93 Tom Asquith (@tomasquith93) reported from Twyford, England

    @virginmedia The only detail I’ve had is as follows and it’s hardly detailed. Please can someone tell me what is the issue and where, with timescales. “Hi, it's Virgin Media here. The installation is kept on hold due to construction issue.”

  • djmessyxjessy Jessica Boshier (@djmessyxjessy) reported from Reading, England
