    @virginmedia I've tried talking , nearly 2 hrs on phone yesterday and still no resolution so I've contacted Ofcom and BBC watchdog

  • sharniw Sharni Wilson シャーニ・ウィルソン (@sharniw) reported

    @virginmedia I would like to complain about incredibly poor customer service. I have now spoken to web chat THREE times, with still no result, and now they are threatening to charge me extra fees? It's beyond ridiculous.

  • i1PURGE1i PURGE (@i1PURGE1i) reported

    @virginmedia … no delivery note for the hub, no call back from a manager. But. I do have a booster to help the wifi spread round the house. My account is not showing my upgrade so I’m left wondering what on earth is happening. @virginmedia I’m shocked at the lack of customer service …

  • BreezerV VB (@BreezerV) reported

    @virginmedia No broadband in PO13 but broadband checker shows no issue and then goes to 404.

  • Nutty_D86 NUTTY D (@Nutty_D86) reported

    @i1PURGE1i @virginmedia ive upgraded to gig1 just waiting for changeover but trying to sort it was a nightmare customer service was terrible

  • benjaminclynes Benjamin Clynes (@benjaminclynes) reported

    @virginmedia no service in SE19 this morning, service checker is down, and no preplanned maintenance notified/way of registering a loss of service. Please can you investigate urgently, as this is currently disrupting several people’s work day.

  • zoe_230196 Zoë💋 (@zoe_230196) reported

    @virginmedia Cancelling my contract? Better still, providing me with a service that serves its purpose. Been paying your company whilst having to utilise my own mobile phone data and having to share my personal hotspot because Virgin Media is incompetent. Total shambles of a company.

  • smartascarrots the bert (@smartascarrots) reported
