@virginmedia It has been over a week trying to contact you and it’s impossible. The contract needs to end on 04/03/21. Your service makes things 10x harder than any other provider.

Have been forced upstairs to watch the match in the PS4. WiFi is usually crap up here. But, no, it's working perfectly so I'm forced to watch #NUFC. Cheers @virginmedia, why can't you do this when I'm trying to work?!

@virginmedia Your team still do not answer the phone. Constantly on hold and then they hung up on my partner yesterday when she got through. The box will be left outside the address for you to collect because we have been trying to cancel for a week now and it is a joke. #poorcustomerservice

@katiexmiddleton @virginmedia VM is big in my area for internet but the last house I was in could only have TalkTalk. When I moved, I just transferred my address over instead of moving across to VM. The trouble you’ve, and everybody else it seems, had makes me glad I did! I’ve not had an issue with TT once!

@virginmedia We have had no service since the 23rd???? I am NOT going to accept an engineer coming on the 30th. I want answers to the lies we have been told. I am Not going to let this go. Christmas 21 destroyed with stress, anxiety and depression. Not acceptable

@virginmedia No Im not going through this pointless chat for the 20th time. You make it the easiest thing to join, but God forbid if we ever want to leave. We have had contracts with other suppliers before but VM is the most difficult, unreliable, shocking service so far.

@virginmedia Hi - yes, I spoke to someone yesterday who assured me I would have a call from the “area field manager” or from themselves with an update some time yesterday. I’ve not had any such call or update, sadly! At the moment, still no sign of when I should expect resolution!

@virginmedia Can I ask at what point does it become acceptable for government to use service providers to mass spam text the population about a medical procedure? Please remember me from any future contact that do not relate to my current contract with you. Thank you @Ofcom
