@virginmedia just had a very frustrating afternoon with your call centre trying to dump our landline which we never use. After 13 years as a customer it is particularly galling to then see on the comparison sites how much more you value new customers.

Multiple houses in our estate @virginmedia has been down since yesterday and yet they won't accept there is an outage problem so we are all having to wait for individual engineers to come out. How many houses have to be without internet before you accept it's not a router issue?

@VirginMedia - Please get yourself sorted out!! It's been over a week, the link to your bundles doesn't work. I have VirginMedia and get "Bad Request" when I try to get on your web page!! I'm getting ripped off with 'out of contract' fees and can't see your offers.
