  • DannyTaylorDT Danny Taylor (@DannyTaylorDT) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    After winning 37/37 in the Newcastle #ePL across the groups and the playoffs, I lose in the semi finals and won’t be at the grand final. Hard to describe the conditions I’ve just had to play in due to EA’s issue with Virgin Media, but this really has broken me

    Here’s a thought. Those poor folk stick in hospital at the moment. No visitors allowed but still been charged #Extortionate amounts for #TVServices How about these companies waiving fees as a goodwill gesture during extremely difficult times #NHS #VirginMedia ##SkyTv

  • nickeyley Eee-lee (@nickeyley) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia You can't even get my name right. It literally says it on my account. Absolutely basic customer service and you can't even do that properly. Shit company with shit service and useless customer support.

  • adam_mcclelland Adam McClelland (@adam_mcclelland) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    Hazel from customer relations at @virginmedia. Rude. Obstructive and defensive! Scare mongering into staying with Virgin! Glad I called instead of my 78yr old grandfather!

  • ami9463 Ami (@ami9463) reported from Egglescliffe, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin_Victoria I was told it would be delivered today. I got the yodel app, which has informed me its tomorrow. Not good, when I actually called up Virgin to cancel my contract. Its not the best way to keep a customer whose on the edge of leaving you.

  • BeardAssassinX BeardAssassinX Gaming (@BeardAssassinX) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It happens to everyone on virgin in the block we should all get compensation if we didn’t pay our bill you’d soon cut us off yet you ain’t supplying the service we are paying for

  • mick_demarco Housty (@mick_demarco) reported from Larkhall, Scotland

    @virginmedia been on hold for 40 minutes waiting for tech support over my WiFi disabling itself and I have an important Skype call in a couple of hours.

  • AineM15 Aine Murray (@AineM15) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Already did that , you are pretty much lying to people taking the first and second month in the first bill. Only have been with you for one month. Your customer team said this was in the terms and conditions. Can guarantee you it's not as I wouldn't have signed up if it was

  • mick_demarco Housty (@mick_demarco) reported from Larkhall, Scotland

    @virginmedia It's literally only affecting phones now and was on off with laptops. Laptops have been fine for a day, signal is still there from furtheest point of house, just constantly disabling.

  • DIZZYDJC Dan Conway (@DIZZYDJC) reported from West End, England

    Absolutely appalling service from @virginmedia once again, why on earth did I fall for their lies! Absolute disgrace of a company

  • AineM15 Aine Murray (@AineM15) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia for anyone who is thinking about switching to virgin media don't. Their £50 refer a friend credit doesn't work and they charge £35 for the activation fee and take the first and second month in advance. So now looking at a bill of over £100. Tried to phone but no use

  • AndyHowe17 Andy Howe (@AndyHowe17) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Well I am not being patient and will be taking my custom elsewhere. This is your issue outside of my house and I am not getting the service I am paying for so will look elsewhere for someone who can provide a proper service!

  • BeardAssassinX BeardAssassinX Gaming (@BeardAssassinX) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @sgt_rebels @StokeAssassinX @virginmedia @TalkTalk Yes mate the WiFi speed is even worse @virginmedia are just shit they use shit components in the hubs to make you laugh I’m only 5 miles from the network centre in Croydon 😂😂

  • BeardAssassinX BeardAssassinX Gaming (@BeardAssassinX) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Been down that road get fobbed off everytime send engineer out everything works fine just your service is crap not that you’d ever admit 😂😂😂

  • GMac1985 Glenn Macandrew (@GMac1985) reported from Northamptonshire, England

    @Switchtobetter @virginmedia @Virgin @Ofcom @MoneyTelegraph Couldn't be more accurate to the current levels of service (using this word loosely) I have been receiving!
