  • cjossy Joss (@cjossy) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia As slow as your broadband speed

  • scrabsy Steven Robinson (@scrabsy) reported

    So less than 1 week after signing up to @virginmedia my new land line number has found its way to scammers. Im not saying someone is profiting from selling on newly registered numbers but its very strange! Especially since i have never given this number out to anyone.

  • IveGotWood1979 Jamie (@IveGotWood1979) reported

    @virginmedia Sure. I negotiated my price a couple of months back for the 200mbps service. Then last month you tell me it's going up by £3.50 from march. Then this week Vodafone have said I can have their 500mbps service for slightly less, fixed for 24 months. Seems a no brainer really

  • terrimcfarlane_ Terri ♥ (@terrimcfarlane_) reported

    Has anyone ever managed to actually successfully have a complaint dealt with by @virginmedia without being completely fobbed off? Please tell me how 🙌🏻

  • lee1988mars Lgmars (@lee1988mars) reported

    @virginmedia why have I spent over 2 hours on the phone waiting for you to answer the phone so I can cancel the services ******* useless this company no one should be joining no wonder your having to drop your prices

  • howardwing63 Howard Wing (@howardwing63) reported

    @virginmedia Have had issues with tv streaming services for past week or so. Internet (Wi-Fi) keeps dropping out on a daily basis. Virgin TV Control no longer allowing me to connect and watch tv via iPad. All in all - Not getting what I’m paying for.

  • camcanary StewartB (@camcanary) reported
