I think very soon I'll be saying 👋 to @ThreeUK and 🤝 to @virginmedia...over the last couple of years, the signal has got increasingly worse. I have just bought a new phone, but the problem persists...really unhappy.

@GrahamHyde @virginmedia The ****** thing about this is that we have recently had to change an elderly relative’s number after he had been scammed several times, including one who was specifically and repeatedly targeting him. The distress and wasted time from this theft and deception is horrible.

@virginmedia Honestly don’t even reply to this. Virgin is a horrible and useless company. Good luck with Space, but Earth is more important, not rockets 🚀

@GrahamHyde @virginmedia This is the second such incident of abuse in a week and there have been several other calls. What makes them plausible is our internet service from Virgin is poor and they phone saying they are investigating a problem.

@virginmedia you must have the most unreliable internet service in the UK. Several times a year it goes down for a full working day. Again today, "Unplanned Outage" yet your van was here within seconds. Unplanned my arse. Compensate my loss of earnings! #poorService

Life with @virginmedia ...Alexa on temazipan, spinny wheel pauses on every TV channel, sporadic email, stuttering YouTube and all courtesy of their ‘superfast’ thingy. Utterly useless. And then there’s the customer service...

@virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom

@virginmedia If I click on that, I get ‘We can’t run a check on your service right now’. This is really poor. Box just flashes green all the time. Vague to non-existent explanation given on the phone. What am I paying for?

@virginmedia Currently on the phone to the Pune call centre - they cannot help me!!!! What is going on with Virgin? Why can't my Virgin media package be fixed? The manager of the call centre will not speak to me. The operative is trying to help. Disgraceful.

@virginmedia Seriously the most insanely bad customer service ever. Almost 5 hours to be connected to an agent on chat. Just a bot that keeps sending the same stupid messages. If I was considering leaving before I'm now looking at other options.
