    @virginmedia you know when a customer makes a complaint (twice) and you say that the customer will receive a phone call within 24-48hrs. Is this true or do you just make it up as you go along? Thanks.

  • MattBennett93 Matt Bennett (@MattBennett93) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia Well do you not think if I'm only getting a service for 80% of the time, I should only be paying 80% of the bill?

  • andytideswell Cook Pass Babtridge (@andytideswell) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @virginmedia absolutely awful service. So much for looking after elderly and vulnerable customers. Trying to sell services that are not needed or wanted.

    Dear @virginmedia. I’d like to cancel my account. I’ve called 4 times this afternoon, put on hold for ages and been disconnected each time. Why are you making it so hard?

  • sh33ran7 Ant Sheeran 🤙🏻 (@sh33ran7) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

  • AndrewBrookLdn Andrew Brook 🏳️‍🌈 🇪🇺❄️ 🎹 🇺🇦🏳️‍⚧️ #GTTO (@AndrewBrookLdn) reported

    @LeePartridge16 @HayleyBanks41 @virginmedia Virgin took a direct debit from me long after I stopped being a customer, due to a computer glitch, but also because they had kept my bank details on file. I had to demand it to be reversed and in doing so I discovered it had happened to other people too.

  • rwilliams1947 Richard Williams (@rwilliams1947) reported

    Also absolutely no sign of text updates on the problem promised by @virginmedia

  • chaz_khedarun ChazKhedarun (@chaz_khedarun) reported

    @virginmedia 'Apologising' should be installed into your slogan. I am so sick and tired of the pathetic service and customer service from this company. Never a week or day without drop in service or issues.

  • danj19 Dan (@danj19) reported

    @virginmedia Is the problem fixed yet?

  • ivey_faith Faith Ivey (@ivey_faith) reported

    @virginmedia Ours still isn’t working. Clicked the link to check status in our area and says no issues. But the router is still red. We have assessments to hand in and would rather not use mobile data to do this.

  • Moatthedisco Alexandra Orchard (@Moatthedisco) reported
