NATALIE BALL 🛡️ (@Natalieball1984) reported from Skewen, Wales@virginmedia I received it back in May/June time, I already logged a complaint with the person who promised me they had sort it because of your absolutely abysmal customer service and still nearly another month later, moving into October I still have not received my refund!

Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales@virginmedia He apparently told my neighbour that it will just come on at some point tonight? I don’t really hold a lot of faith with that as he had no idea what the issue was?

Chris Davies (@bigchristweets) reported from Gorseinon, Wales@virginmedia I'm aware of the line you're taking to defend the 11% increase but the point is that your service is rubbish as demonstrated by the third image. We have to chuck £200 to Google to get a hub that works. I presume you're not getting an 11% pay rise this year. I know I'm not.
-
NATALIE BALL 🛡️ (@Natalieball1984) reported from Skewen, Wales@virginmedia I never received a final bill on paper, only paperless but because it's been so long now, none of that information is on my account anymore when I log in! I've looked now & it's giving me no info. Can u please DM me so I can send my customer number & u can looking into this plz!
