  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Matey30 @virginmedia Nothing less than I’ve come to expect from them. Service has been so bad which is why we’ve left their tv service. Had to keep the broadband for now due to limitations of other local providers. Now watching freeview…

  • Dav3yAvFc Mr C 🦁 (@Dav3yAvFc) reported from Dudley, England

    Dont you love. Being on hold to @virginmedia .. for 27 minutes to finally get thru. To then be told your bill has doubled because your contract expired. Then to have the phone put down on you 😂😂😂😂😂

  • joacie Jo C (@joacie) reported

    @virginmedia Your customer service advisor was supposed to be calling me back today to put through the cancellation but of course they haven't. You're trying to undermine my legal rights to cancel a contract I wasn't clearly informed on the consequences of.

  • HandsomeEddie1 HandsomeEddie (@HandsomeEddie1) reported

    @virginmedia how do I report a broadband outage when your offices are closed?

  • mikechildmusic Mike Child (@mikechildmusic) reported

    @virginmedia Has the network gone down yet AGAIN? The lack of reliability of Virgin Broadband is becoming ridiculous.

  • lexieclarkson Alex Clark (@lexieclarkson) reported

    @virginmedia They hang up if I mention cancelling. It isn’t good enough!

  • W_iciclesnight W 💜 - Genshin obsessed atm (@W_iciclesnight) reported

    Where has the wifi on the London underground gone? @virginmedia every other service provider has Wifi on the Tube except virgin media which has disappeared for week with no explanation to customers???

  • Lee_Simo89 Lee Simpson (@Lee_Simo89) reported

    Been with @virginmedia a week and not impressed. Going to be charged £25 as I cannot for the life of me cancel an appointment tomorrow. Through the app ❌ on the website ❌ over the phone ❌! Can someone please tell me how I’m meant to do this?

  • SR_Wadlet Josh (@SR_Wadlet) reported

    Last few weeks my @virginmedia internet has completely gone to ****. Shocking!

  • GaryMas87311334 Gary Masters (@GaryMas87311334) reported

    @virginmedia However I do congratulate them on living up to their reputation as one of the worst customer service companies in the world. Such a pity as the potential is to be great!

  • lexo6647 Acky (@lexo6647) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia as it was tiresome and he can’t get through to anyone. The same problem I had today. He has his phone, broadband and tv with you. His mobile as well I reckon. Having spent a good bit time today going through all the stuff on the phone to eventually be hung up on is infuriating

  • SR_Wadlet Josh (@SR_Wadlet) reported

    @EJM_uk @virginmedia For me it is, haven't had a net drop in well over 12 months of service so for me they've been unbelievably reliable. Up until now!
