    @virginmedia I was transferred numerous times. Then finally told that the person who set up the house transfer, has messed it up and somehow cancelled my access. With no solution on how to fix it

    @virginmedia It’s a long standing issue which seems to be getting worse. The signal strength is just so so poor. I can’t use the WiFi upstairs most of the time 🙄

    Customer service is an alien concept to @virginmedia

  • JonJamesPhoto81
    JonJamesPhotography (@JonJamesPhoto81) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia @johnmclaren1972 All I’m seeing are apologies but still no resolution to fixing issues, providing a decent service or looking after existing customers. I’ll be changing to sky next month.

  • Dex_Fitz
    𝗗𝗲𝘅 𝗙𝗶𝘁𝘇𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗱 (@Dex_Fitz) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @virginmedia I’ve detailed that I have been lied to and expressed strong dissatisfaction with your customer service and your reply is to check if there are any issues in my area? Like I said, I’ll await a manager to call (if that actually happens) and add this to the complaint. Really poor.

  • Michael73271023
    Michael Jenkins (@Michael73271023) reported from Dyffryn Clydach, Wales

    @virginmedia sort your internet out as it's not working yet again

    @virginmedia took out new contract. Been waiting 2 days for the service to be activated and have been promised 2 call backs to help resolve the issue which has I have not had. Very poor service indeed.

  • Adamcroft1996
    Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales

    @virginmedia He apparently told my neighbour that it will just come on at some point tonight? I don’t really hold a lot of faith with that as he had no idea what the issue was?

    Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales

    @virginmedia had no wifi since essential work was carried out in the area yesterday. It was supposed to be back up by 4pm yesterday. Neighbour had same issue engineer came out to neighbour and realised we both had the same problem. He said he would let me know what 1/2

    @virginmedia Internet playing up yet again, absolutely shocking service..

  • grumpyoldprof
    Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    Could someone @virginmedia please help. I cannot access my ntlworld emails. This happened a few weeks ago when I was shut out of my account at your end.

  • Gezz99
    Geraint Reynolds (@Gezz99) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia please update your Virgin Mobile automated message which says lines are open until 22:00. I called at 21:05 and connected to a lost & stolen line who couldn't help and also said they couldn't feed back to anyone that the automated message is wrong 🤦

  • bigchristweets
    Chris Davies (@bigchristweets) reported from Gorseinon, Wales

    @virginmedia I'm aware of the line you're taking to defend the 11% increase but the point is that your service is rubbish as demonstrated by the third image. We have to chuck £200 to Google to get a hub that works. I presume you're not getting an 11% pay rise this year. I know I'm not.

  • Botleylady

    Still holding on the phone to @virginmedia after 1hr. 31mins 43secs. Absolutely disgusting service.

    @SpinCat1 @virginmedia The entire "Virgin" is bad news!!!!. Even the gyms!!!. Stay away!!!. I had an equally bad experience...also a virgin branch

  • TheZacMan2050

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Same problem every mate. ******* stupid. Take India, get way better value so why ******** we pay stupid amounts

  • LK_Yanited
    LK 🏴‍☠️🚩 (@LK_Yanited) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Had to move away from them last year absolute joke of a company. Constantly lying about their speeds, work always seemed to be happening affecting the network and the yearly price rises were eye watering. Their customer service is also laughable to top it off

  • JasonBurns_CM
    Jason Burns (@JasonBurns_CM) reported

    @LK_Yanited @Simon_Whale @virginmedia I've taught their customer service about how to fix their own issues it's so bad.

  • DaveRogers27
    Dave Rogers (@DaveRogers27) reported

    @Grimmy01942 @Simon_Whale @virginmedia They did this to me, it was the final straw. I sacked them off and got BT fibre broadband, never looked back.

  • wistern1337
    Wistern1337 (@wistern1337) reported

    Sickening it's still hard for customers leave your service despite being fined by the UK government £28m I moved away from your service in March to a new provider. I have been charged over £300 for unused services. Refund refused. Never sign up to ripoff Virgin! @virginmedia

  • DeviousPL
    invs86 (@DeviousPL) reported

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt It’s mind-blowing anyone is still using Virgin, they are absolutely awful, network is held together by string and tape and customer services do their absolute best to infuriate you - either dropping the call, long holds or arguing. “Technical faults” are a weekly occurrence.

  • AJ01991
    Alex (@AJ01991) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia They’re dodgy as ****, I had total loss of service for over a month, they kept closing my complaints saying it was resolved after I explicitly said not to. They also kept saying it was fixed when it wasn’t to avoid paying compensation.

  • 0nlytwogenders
    only2genders (@0nlytwogenders) reported

    @Ofcom can you please investigate @virginmedia I inquired about their service and then declined, since they’ve called me twelve times in two days, I have now had to block their number @richardbranson

    (@Kurt_Bimpson) reported

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt Virgin are dreadful and by far have the worst customer service I have ever experienced A genuinely awful company
