@treysis @noIPv6 @omnomis @virginmedia @tschaeferm @adam_as61 Nah, @AskCiti always used to be the only way to get competent customer service. At one point I almost took to using them first without even bothering to go through the proper channels first.

@virginmedia Absolutely disgusting service from Virgin. Rang to get refund for sky sports since lockdown and no help whatsoever. And I can’t make a complaint apparently as it will be automatically closed!!

@virginmedia @ruskin147 It’s also affecting your 4G mobile data service so every time your broadband goes down so does the 4G and we lose all of our internet access.

@virginmedia trying to find your TV only plans on your website is a nightmare. Can’t do anything on your slow clunky mobile website.

@skirglepips @gayxchange04 @virginmedia @CherylHoleQueen It’s probably good to know that the xfactor is so produced that the good and the bad singers are often head hunted and told what to sing for good tv

@virginmedia Amazing how you won’t sort out the problem with the account holder but you’ll speak to someone else about the account without the account holder’s permission!

@virginmedia The worst bit you get one letter on 6th Nov saying your case is being investigated & apologising for taking 8 weeks to sort, two days later the case is closed as I didn’t reply to a letter 4 weeks earlier I never received!!!!

@virginmedia I’d be grateful if you can get the problem fixed asap please ? Leaving cable exposed is dangerous - children can come in contact or adult and May suffer significant harm

@virginmedia ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE! I’ve worked with major computer and ISP’s over my time but by far Virgin Media is the worst! I pay £111 a month and not one person can help. Intermittent internet for a month but they say just wait another week it may be back on!
-
The man
(@nofksgiven81) reported
@virginmedia @MoizSiawala All you ever do is push dates back further & further, and then expect a simple sorry to be good enough, well it isn’t, my new expected date of fix in my area is tomorrow, the 3rd date you have given, we already know it won’t be fixed tomorrow, it’s ok, you will say sorry after
