    Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

  • 329hoady ⚒Hoady⚒ (@329hoady) reported

    Are Virgin mobile calls down? As we can’t even make or receive calls on WiFi call. @virginmedia #virginmobile

  • Rob99Smith Rob Smith (@Rob99Smith) reported

    @Dann4d @virginmedia Dan. They are an appalling company. Simply the worst customer service that I have ever encountered. My advice would be to go elsewhere. #Virginarewoeful

  • Lottieiamfree lottie (@Lottieiamfree) reported

    @virginmedia Oh is that right? !!! How about starting your message with, thanks for being such a loyal customer of 25yrs!!! How would you like to discuss what we can do to help maybe get the costs down? Good customer service award there 👏

  • KSurradge karen surradge (@KSurradge) reported

    @virginmedia can you confirm a direct number for your complaints department. Ive had 4 weeks of poor to no speed and have spent over 3 hours trying to get this resolved. You latest call handler told me there was an intermittent fault they could not fix !!

  • driver8mate Bradders (@driver8mate) reported

    @virginmedia No. The original contract has only now been cancelled along with outstanding payment as I received no service. This is thanks to Ombudsman not VM. VM still not cancelled new contract (created without consent) despite 14 day cooling period and chasing me for payment. Complete joke

  • fatblokephotos Bob@Fatbloke (@fatblokephotos) reported

    @virginmedia ....and it then took you ten days to charge me anyway. Your customer service is a joke.

  • ShahlaBaghesta1 Shahla Croxford (@ShahlaBaghesta1) reported
