-
Smyth Harper 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia In the orders and appointments section it says there are none. The text I have received confirming the appointment and threatening me with a £25 fine is different to the one offered to me by your customer services.

Kerry Louise (@KerryKez7) reported from Urmston, EnglandDon’t ever get Virgin Media internet/WIFI it’s SO garbage & keeps going off especially when your watching something WTF & apparently it’s the most up to date & according to them it’s the best NO it’s not plus it’s expensive for being SO c**p 🤬💷😤
-
johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia The guy I spoke to at VM yesterday said that she wouldn’t be eligible for a “disabled” phone line to be installed because it wasn’t claimed when they dug the front garden up 18 months ago. We were never given this as an option at the time, if we had we would have insisted on it.

Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported from Strines, England@virginmedia well done, after over 10 years with you, Virgin Media have sunk to the their lowest level of service and support ever. Roll on November and the end of my contract. Appalling, ignorant, clueless, almost as bad as BT.

Car reg: YT18SXL. He’s just left.

LGWLGWLGW (@lgwlgwlgw) reported@virginmedia Done this multiple times. Engineers have confirmed there are regular intermittent network outages in my local area which cause broadband to drop out for up to 10 mins at a time. Not good. Also no priority for anyone at Virgin Media to fix the issue any time soon
