    @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!

    Can someone tell me what would happen if I just cancel my @virginmedia Direct Debit? It's the worst customer service I've ever experienced. Can't even get hold of someone to cancel my contract.

  • themattblair Matt Blair twitch.tv/mattblairuk (@themattblair) reported

    @virginmedia Totally screwed over today. Was sold your service on the PROMISE that we would be set up today. Apparently you don’t have enough stock. We work from home. We can’t be without. Waiting for a call back to find out when you can solve the problem. Waiting since 11:30am.

  • UnicornGamingUK Unicorn Gaming 🏳️‍🌈 (@UnicornGamingUK) reported

    Welp guess which ****** can't get a technician out till the 10th to fix their @virginmedia internet? This ****. Thanks to the pandemic they are low on staff so if you are one of the mouth breathers who don't wear masks, I hope someone slams a door into your face.
