    @virginmedia I have had a house love booked for two weeks (planned for tomorrow) yet once again you have disconnected my services early at my current address. I’m working from home and your error has once again impacted me and I’m going to spend my morning again trying to fix!

  • MarkCarruthers_ Mark Carruthers (@MarkCarruthers_) reported from Wallsend, England

    What an absolute farce @virginmedia are. Pay a ridiculous amount each month for slow broadband that regularly doesn’t work. Now on to a second day with no service and TiVo is also down. Pathetic.

  • Mal_Area Malcolm Sinyard (@Mal_Area) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I have called them twice today still having issues

  • JeffsW0rld Jeff’s World (@JeffsW0rld) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia Please sort your complaints team out.... I’ve been promised a resolution numerous times over the last few months and still nothing. what a complete embarrassment they are.

  • Lucy__Hedley Lucy Hedley (@Lucy__Hedley) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I was told that I would be called back by a manager #lies Now due to further incompetence you have cut off my Internet & phone service. Claiming that I haven't paid a bill when there's a direct debit set up! #diabolical service. I've never been treated so poorly.

  • Mal_Area Malcolm Sinyard (@Mal_Area) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia Its the wifi thats gone down. I am currently using a wired connection.

  • SafcJamieG Jamie (@SafcJamieG) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia They raised a complaint and nothing was done about it, they probably didn’t even listen to the call where I was sold the product, if they did it would have been dealt with

  • MJGray1963 Michael Gray 💙 (@MJGray1963) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia can you explain to me why you tell blatant lies in response to a complaint

  • finance_cafe The Finance Cafe (@finance_cafe) reported

    @virginmedia Had to wait on hold for 5 mins so someone could register my complaint.

  • Stixx1979 Whittle (@Stixx1979) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Unless you can locate the mobile phone that never reached me in August 2020, employ more peoley to deal with customers and open shops again , I shouldn't think there is thank you.

  • PeterCarruther7 Peter 'org 0x7c00' Carruthers (@PeterCarruther7) reported

    @asmith_1979 @Cassetteboy @virginmedia If you pay by Direct Debit, you could possibly cancel and invoke the DD Guarantee on the grounds of token contract terms.

  • Harryafc Harry (@Harryafc) reported

    jokes thing with @virginmedia is that cookies dropped so now they bombard me with ads to join them but i'm already a customer, so take great pride in commenting on the ads with the speeds they give me vs what i pay, hopefully it puts people off! #virginiswhack #goBT #gotalktalk

  • tumble_cool +(_)/\/\%|€ ©°°| (@tumble_cool) reported

    @virginmedia Tried all of those unfortunately. Really regret giving VM another chance. 18 months more of this insufferable service.

  • Harryafc Harry (@Harryafc) reported

    @DJ_Blitz_UK @virginmedia wtf!!! they so whack its untrue!! Ive got a sick deal with all channels but the broadband side of it is so bad its shocking.

  • tumble_cool +(_)/\/\%|€ ©°°| (@tumble_cool) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks but no. Just want to now get out of this contract. Had far better service from a mobile router than cable router.

  • ceydar_ cey (@ceydar_) reported

    @virginmedia Nothing! No one wants to deal with the issue, they keep putting different representatives on phone. Put me on hold and then put the phone down on me, this happened a total of three times.

  • willywallyoohh Willywallyoohh (@willywallyoohh) reported
