    @virginmedia I have a Virgin complaint ref and a Cisas ref number. Don’t have them to had as I’m at work. I had no ref number relating to GDPR concerns that I emailed to the email address on your site.

  • ShonaClarke9 Shona Clarke (@ShonaClarke9) reported from Newton Abbot, England

    Not happy with Virgin Media at the moment. No WiFi since Saturday. Tried calling and got nowhere as the call centre is closed. Don't need this during self isolation. Does anyone else have this problem. Not good enough Virgin Media.

  • MandyPearse Mandy Pearse (@MandyPearse) reported from Teignmouth, England

    @danslee @virginmedia That’s shocking customer handling Dan. If it’s any help I’ve actually found the guys @TalkTalk pretty good especially on tech issues around broadband.

  • JackieKellySW Jackie Kelly (@JackieKellySW) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia It fails daily, last two pay per view films buffered. After numerous calls to CS it is established I need a new box ! Also discussed my package offer which runs out on 31/7 for him to advise I go to sky !! After 15 years service !

  • saints76 Chris Wright (@saints76) reported from Borough of Torbay, England

    @virginmedia Just when I thought you'd fixed it, it goes wrong.....was working fine during the day. Busy times your service is shocking. I've now got the same message.... insufficient bandwidth.

    Right @virginmedia it’s Friday! I expect to fully be back up and running by this afternoon as promised numerous times. If not you get someone to my house to sort it this weekend, no more crap promises down the phone! #majorlyfedupnow

  • allisonpaul_ Allybaba (@allisonpaul_) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @virginmedia - after setting bill, I asked to be directed to cancellations as I’ve really had enough. It’s never ending.Only for the agent to tell me “I can reduce your bill from £54 to £44”....MY PACKAGE IS SUPPOSED TO BE £44 ANYWAY. So I am STILL being over charged after a million calls (4)

  • allisonpaul_ Allybaba (@allisonpaul_) reported from Huddersfield, England

    @virginmedia Ive worked in customer service all of my working life (multiple roles inc manager of a Nandos -which is testing 🤪) I have the patience of a saint, I understand mistakes happen, but this is honestly a joke.
