    @virginmedia my mum left in May and she’s had three bulls since then can’t get online as her account number is no longer recognised can you help pls

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia We had a 6 day internet outage at the end of July. I’ve just got the bill for next month and there are no credits on it to account for the outage - we’re still being charged the same amount.

  • adamxgardner Adam Gardner⚡ (@adamxgardner) reported from Llanyrafon, Wales

    @virginmedia why have you sent two random people to my street today, cold call and come in my property due to internet issues and NOW MY INTERNET DOESNT WORK. WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING AT.

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia It’s been going on for months, I have had all new boxes and hub but it still goes down. I have been told to keep my local engineer up to date. There is nothing the help desk can do we have tried everything

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes, I understand that issues happen, but it would be nice to know more than just “we’re currently having issues”. If someone told me “a bolt of lightning from that thunderstorm you had hit the cabinet and fried it” or something, we’d probably be a lot more understanding.

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Still not working... 3 days.. wont hold my breath

  • OrdinryGirl1987 OrdinaryGirl (@OrdinryGirl1987) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia new broadband routers now working, speeds dropped massively when I can get internet, tried for 14 minutes to get through to your customer service (being charged thanks for that) and can’t get access to my account as your team registered my email address wrong. Help!

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia 20 minutes waiting to escalate a complaint that wasn’t even set up just to get talked over and cut off. No basic understanding of GDPR it seems as my SAR wasn’t actioned.

  • jamcole88 🇬🇧Jamie🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@jamcole88) reported from Panteg, Wales

    @virginmedia Your just as bad as sky lol

  • RPagey Richad Page (@RPagey) reported from Beechwood, Wales

    @virginmedia hey there been trying to get in contact with your complaints team for over an hour now regarding a second breach of data protection. After being in hold numerous times and then cut off can you give me any ideas how to contact them regarding this data protection issue

  • WynfordE Wyn Emanuel (@WynfordE) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    As my @virginmedia bill is now creeping up towads 130pcm I called to cancel or negotiate. A small discount was offered. I was surprised how little effort was made to retain a customer. (‘OK, thank you for calling’). So I’ll have to switch.

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes, I understand that. But after signing up to SMS updates four times via two methods, I’d expect to at least be receiving texts telling me that the fix times have been pushed back.

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Both wired and not, advised to turn off and back on, diagnostics checked at your end, engineer visit, resulted in all new v6 boxes (x2) and a new internet hub also internal wiring checked and re-connected. Issue seemed to be resolved for a while but after then goes off altogether

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Actually, I’m done. Issues resolved but if this is how good your customer service journey gets, I’m cancelling my services.

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    OMG forever having internet issues with #virginmedia even have my own direct line to an engineer.

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Business... Was told before our forced upgrade because we had been with you for years... we were out of contract so you dodnt have to honour anything.. we upgrade.. still shit

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Nice going, @virginmedia - called to check how my complaint and SAR are progressing as they were requested on Thursday and I didn’t get the same day call back promised by the TM. Called back today to find 1. Complaint not set up. 2. SAR not submitted. AND....

  • piltonjambo Kenny (@piltonjambo) reported

    Was a @virginmedia customer for 27 years, in that time, had all sorts of hell with their ridiculous customer non service. So glad to be away. Home all day on Tuesday, after they told me they'd uplift their equipment and no one showed. Just paid my final bill, £9.40 for 3 days!!

  • Booze_Fags_Mags Milltown Friedman (@Booze_Fags_Mags) reported

    If you ever wonder why some women keep dating toxic men, thinking this time it will be different remember that at one point in your life you probably went from Virgin Media to Eir and back again expecting better customer service

  • WillCunliffe5 WILL.I.AM (@WillCunliffe5) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, is Virgin wifi down at KY7 5DZ … there is a green flashing light and and green wifi symbol showing on the box ??

  • paula_bland2 Paula Bland (@paula_bland2) reported

    @virginmedia Seems to be lots of places because when we’re home we have Wi-Fi It’s a real problem when using apps for directions as signal is so inconsistent and weak. Seriously thinking of changing providers 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

  • RyanHunt222 Ryan Hunt (@RyanHunt222) reported

    @virginmedia Part 2 As part of my monthly I pay your call centre staff. You have a duty under that contract to be reachable should I as a paying customer require. If you breach your end of the deal then I will request my money back. You can PM me, get my phone number and call me withoutdelay

  • 0iivie Olive (@0iivie) reported

    @virginmedia This is via Wi-Fi. I’ve never been informed I need one. If I do I imagine this a cost I will need to incur? Just like the recommended wifi boosters? I’m sat NEXT to my router and my speed is currently 3.3.

  • olivegunning Olivia Gunning (@olivegunning) reported

    @alantucker @virginmedia I was on some kind of hold for 4 hours today!! How did it get so bad????

  • DevonCJ1992 Devon Copie James (@DevonCJ1992) reported

    @virginmedia As in my comment above i don’t have a PC or laptop to try it on it but if that’s the case it’s just a pure coincidence that when I have no issues everything on the dns is fine but like in the last 2-3 weeks when I’ve had issues it’s been like the original tweet I sent you

  • David30615138 David (@David30615138) reported

    WHY IS VIRGIN MEDIA SO BLOODY BAD. CAN'T LOG INTO MY EMAILS OR TALK TO ANYONE AS THEY HAVE CLOSED TO CALL CENTER!? SO THEY TELL ME ...ON A RECORDING. :/

  • danstatham7 Dan Statham (@danstatham7) reported

    Hi Virgin Media. Any idea why we’ve lost signal in London N2?
