  • maxinetennet74 Maxine Tennet (@maxinetennet74) reported from Walker Gate, England

    What will it take for @virginmedia to actually sort out an account after a bereavement??? 3 months later, endless calls and empty promises. Continued anxiety and distress for an elderly woman is not the bereavement service I’d expect. Appalling.

  • katie_katie23 Katie Buckingham (@katie_katie23) reported

    @virginmedia Received the adapter and finally have a working phone line. Shame it took 3 weeks to get to the bottom of the issue. Disappointed that I was told porting number was able to be done by several staff and that they submitted a form to request it, but at least phone is working now

  • ChrisMouUK Chris | FM Mou (@ChrisMouUK) reported

    @virginmedia can anyone get in touch with me regarding issues I am facing. I have tried numerous times over WhatsApp and the online chat but unfortunately I am being palmed off. Please help otherwise I'll just cancel.

  • FiveStarGer 🇬🇧 (@FiveStarGer) reported

    What a joke @virginmedia your crappy app says there is no issues in my area yet there's been 10 engineers working in my street all day. No issues aye OK pal lol

  • siltanu kef (@siltanu) reported

    @555Husker @virginmedia Backup! 10 days our area broadband has been down, why you bother for buckuo a line if it does not connect within days. You are taking us for a ride. So frustrating and very disappointing.

  • StuInAus Stuart Allsopp (@StuInAus) reported

    @virginmedia The outcome was that after over TWENTY minutes they refused to deal with it unless I gave them an account number. And the box is still wide open for people to rip the cables out of. Because the 'customer service' number is a joke.

  • siltanu kef (@siltanu) reported

    @555Husker @virginmedia I have never seen for a while, virigin services going down year after year. We have been with company for long time. We ahve been with out broad 10 days counting...

  • siltanu kef (@siltanu) reported

    @555Husker @virginmedia I am so frustrated, they have been saying that identified the problems engineers have been dispatched. How long does it take? Two weeks? What a mistake to be with virgin .
