  • nathandainty Nathan Dainty (@nathandainty) reported from Sheffield, England

    @sky @virginmedia hey @SkyUK You should tell your customer service: “Online, mail and telephone order customers have the right to cancel their order for a limited time even if the goods aren’t faulty. Sales of this kind are known as ‘distance selling’…

  • sufcben Ben Burkinshaw ⚔ (@sufcben) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia No internet for 6 weeks as a new customer and was told an engineer would be coming today only to be told there’s no appointment been made

  • martinbo1972 Martin (@martinbo1972) reported from Ossett, England

    @virginmedia shocking customer service!

  • pipathon Richard Milnes (@pipathon) reported from Ossett, England

    Decided to leave @virginmedia today after ringing them up. Great service no reason to leave other than I need to be a “new customer” to access the best deals. My monthly bill more than doubled. Hello @NOWTV or @SkyUK I think.....

  • JoeInSheffield Joe 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🔶 (@JoeInSheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @TrainedPengling @virginmedia The problem I have with this, is that whenever their broadband has gone down, so had my mobile with them at same time. Like when it all went down nationwide earlier this month. Having free 4g when you actually can't connect is kinda pointless lol

  • JoeInSheffield Joe 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🔶 (@JoeInSheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Nothing has happened today, I'm just commenting on your offer to give all broadband customers free mobile 4g when your broadband goes down. Whenever my broadband had gone down, so has my cellular connection also.

  • martinbo1972 Martin (@martinbo1972) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia Media! Awful talking to a call centre in another country!

  • skintkidsdiscox TWR ✘ (@skintkidsdiscox) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia internets having struggles help

  • Claredo91857219 Clare doyle (@Claredo91857219) reported from Barnsley, England

    @Alroblade @virginmedia Who you gone to. I need to kick them into touch. Crap service and a rip off price that gets money expensive each year x

    @virginmedia day 3 of the WiFi going down.

  • GaoMatti Matti.H.Gao (@GaoMatti) reported

    @virginmedia So you are basically saying that being scammed is customer’s fault and leaving the contract deserves the charges? The scam call started with my recent purchase activity within the network… what a surprise if this is not done by someone linked inside your team

  • PhillipsCheron Cheron Phillips (@PhillipsCheron) reported

    Well that has to be the rudest customer service call, I have EVER received @virginmedia . Not a chance I will be changing my mind now that I have cancelled my account with you. Remember you called me wanting me to stay

  • gaznolan Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @beardedian @virginmedia @O2 Set up fee and possibly extra for the service you'll have before the next DD comes out?

  • PhillipsCheron Cheron Phillips (@PhillipsCheron) reported

    @virginmedia One, I was called and two I have tried for a long time to reduce my service but I wasn't able to. I was with virgin mobile and media for over 20 years. The service has become worse and worse. Glad I will leaving to be honest. I've had enough
