  • kaylsj kaylee-jade (@kaylsj) reported

    @virginmedia hi, I recently upgraded my phone using the trade up service. The problem is that my new phone won’t arrive in time before I have to send my old phone off. I was assured that I could keep my old phone until I receive the new phone but the confirmation email says

  • garethchell Gareth Chell (@garethchell) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve not had any confirmation. I get put on hold while speaking to disconnections and then the line just goes dead every time. I’ve spend over 2 hours on the line trying to sort this out and no one can seem to cancel my contract.

  • tffmadpixie sheena scott (@tffmadpixie) reported

    @MissEmVintage @virginmedia @sevensis I can't imagine how hard this has been, awful, disgusting treatment 😬

  • __Heer__ Navdeep Heer (@__Heer__) reported

    @virginmedia Excuses, your sales reps should let new customers know it may take a year for installation so they don’t cancel their previous provider before hand and Aren’t left without tv and internet for 3 months.

  • cymruchrisrich Chris Richards (@cymruchrisrich) reported from Gorseinon, Wales

    @virginmedia down again . No wifi or tv 😡

  • TraceyBuzzGThom Tracey Thompson (@TraceyBuzzGThom) reported

    @virginmedia hi please can you help my password not working asked for a reset and now it won't let me go past the 7th digit to complete reset

  • Kwig1 KWig1 (@Kwig1) reported

    @atetoomanymars @virginmedia I can’t check if our landline is down because we don’t actually use it. There’s got to be a way to register the fault. You could try the link to complain I was given yesterday- that might be one way to register it? I will go and get it…

  • Kevinde90524281 Kevindelaney (@Kevinde90524281) reported

    @VMSportIE Useless horrible virgin media sports get rid of Brian kerr

  • jools067 Tinks 😁💕🥂 (@jools067) reported

    @virginmedia I've been on the phone an hour, refund eventually agreed via cheque but as I've stated, the service of your company is horrendous but I'm stuck with you for another 9 months, I'm on countdown to leave

  • gillian_h_79 Gilly (@gillian_h_79) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve just been told by a friend that you’ve advised 3 weeks to restore service. Someone else has been told this was planned works and customers notified - I certainly haven’t been warned in advance. I will be contacting @Ofcom
