@virginmedia You’ve sent me a link to explain how I can raise an official complaint. One option is to give you a call? Something I have now tried on 3 separate occasions. Did you not read the thread? #Virginmedia

@virginmedia I’ve detailed that I have been lied to and expressed strong dissatisfaction with your customer service and your reply is to check if there are any issues in my area? Like I said, I’ll await a manager to call (if that actually happens) and add this to the complaint. Really poor.

@virginmedia im getting really annoyed with your mobile service as I cannot receive any automated text messages (which makes 2FA for some stuff impossible). This is an ongoing issue. Also unable to get through to 150

@wordsbypage @virginmedia @BTGroup Friends overseas who move house tell me how reliable their broadband is, or how cheap it is, or how quickly it is to install. None of this variably download speeds nonsense or three plus weeks for an installation, it’s consistent service & move in day installation.

@virginmedia My house was only built 5 years ago on a small development of about 25 houses, we all registered but with only 25 properties the demand isn't there? Our internet is really bad and I'm worried it will cost me my job!

@virginhelp I’ve been a virgin media customer for 25 years and am raging after receiving a massive hike in my monthly payments. My contract comes to an end and I’m minded to move. Can you call to discuss or provide complaints number.
