-

-
Nathan Rhys George (@orangethunder_) reported from Cardiff, WalesI feel awful for the @virginmedia social media staff. Bosses - invest more in infrastructure to genuinely improve services and stop these poor people being treated like ****. Also, pay your taxes.
-
Lee Smith/DJ Leekee (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia I think it was more a BBC source issue rather than VM wide. The lip sync is just every so slightly out but seemed very put on strictly last night

-
Berk (@trapdoor456) reported@virginmedia @RicardoEyes Maybe show decent customer service when you are contacted about issues initially, not just when people have had enough & leave 🤷
-
mike duncan (@mikedun95307737) reported@virginmedia You really need to up your game virtual chat about as much use as a chocolate ashtray. You promise something in the Contract and not deliver it. No am not the account holder but money comes from my account. Get your act in order because at the moment it is crap
-
Chris Love (@chrislove_89) reported@virginmedia 4x since I’ve moved across from BT, the service has been completely down in my area, this in space of just a few months. This has affected exam revision, kids bedtime routines, among other things. Terrible, pathetic service and can’t wait until my contract expires!
-
R.L. MacMurray 🇬🇧 (@DeviateDefiant) reported@DeviousPL @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Yeah their C/S is absolutely atrocious, I'm basically 'grandfathered' into VM from when their network was the only way to get more than about 8mbit down. These days the DOCSIS/coax setup is vastly inferior to any OpenReach FTTP, with fibre directly to the socket.
-
Dmitriy Lobov (@DymDymok) reported@DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt 18 years? Man, has it never occured to you to check what alternative were?
-
keith bird (@birdybank) reported@virginmedia @JiffyRugby i've had an unresolved issue going on with Virgin since March! Supposed to be coming tomorrow at the 7th attempt - Will they finally turm up??
-
Top Cat (@SpinCat1) reported@virginmedia Customer complaint reference: C-2206267014 🤬👇
-
James Durrant (@je_durrant) reported@virginmedia I did that earlier today and your colleague confirmed nothing can be done until 17th August, over a month since this started. Now you’re saying it’s £1660 to exit a service I can’t even use. “Taking responsibility” and “monitoring” doesn’t solve my problem
-
BlueTickBob❌ (@mcrobgi) reported@virginmedia thanks for wasting more of my time. You don’t answer the phones, your chat bot repeats itself, you promise to call me at an agreed time & don’t bother ringing me !! Great customer service!!
-
Knapp (@KnappTweets) reported@virginmedia fix your damn WiFi, I pay like 100 a month for some bullshit that don’t work
