    @virginmedia how is hanging on the phone for more than 30 mins acceptable? You get a *** full of money from me and my Aunt separately. £180 pm your service is extremely poor!!!

    @virginmedia Yes. Please can you look into the Internet in NP10. It cuts out constantly and isn't the service I'm paying for.

    @virginmedia The Wi-fi is rubbish, slow and crap service up stairs. Often I have to connect to extenders. It’s a two story average house. Your routers are rubbish. The older ones were much better!!

    @EmilyEvaGill @virginmedia So has mine with BT, they offered me £20 as an apology but it’s not an apology it’s a contractual obligation! Paying a fortune for a non existent service! Hopefully will be fixed tomorrow

    @virginmedia I get your bills, that is how I realised as a loyal customer I am paying £40 plus a month for Internet access only. Fortunately for me and not for you BT Openreach have been installing fibre to home allowing me greater negotiating power as tou have no respect for loyalty.

    Hello @virginmedia. What ******** is going on in the CF postcode?? No phone, internet or TV. Your website says everything is okay. It clearly isn’t.
