@virginmedia Yes I did and Tuesdays fault was shown and yesterday's wasn't so how about you provide the service I pay for. If this continues I will begin getting quotes from other service providers as I am fed up of dealing with bots and spammers claiming to be from you.

@virginmedia Wanted to thank the lady that helped me today. The call ended and it was not me, and I really wanted to thank her. Hopefully you will pass it on, she hung on to the bitter death to help.

@virginmedia John, please check my file. I’ve called several times, to be told somebody will contact you regarding your complaint. I ask to speak to a manger I’m told, none available. Appreciate this is not your fault buts it’s an utter **** show. I’ll let @Ofcom take the lead from here.

@reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia Virgin Media have gone down massively! The amount they charge doesn't represent the customer experience at all!

So @virginmedia is increasing their prices by £8.50 pm. Wouldn't mind so much if they had decent service, eifi that doesn't cut out when i go upstairs, Sky Atlantic etc. Would go with @SkyUK but their wifi doesn't like bloody copper pipes.

@virginmedia please sort your service out... I have now been on the phone to you for almost an hour. The first person hung up on me, the second was rude and useless. All for £0.01 which I don't owe. No wonder the landlords are removing virgin from all of the apartments

@virginmedia recently downgraded my broadband package, but my Volt package hasn’t been reapplied to my account. Can you help as O2 show it’s active, but no options on your help site that direct me to someone to fix.

@reddersmufc @Ofcom @virginmedia It is awful! Virgin are very expensive compared to many other TV providers yet the customer service is very poor and does NOT suite the price. I'm sick of arguing with them to get the simplest of issues resolved

@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.

@virginmedia I had a problem a few weeks back and couldn’t get through to you because of the queues, I expect it’s the same now. I should learn my lesson and move to another provider I think.
