-
Michael (@MikeARose98) reported from Cwmafan, Wales@virginmedia why are your customer advisors refusing to let people leave? I keep getting hung up on within a few minutes after they've transferred me between each other a few times. This service is shockingly bad 😡
-
Nett 🏴 (@NettThom) reported from Neath, WalesCustomer service is an alien concept to @virginmedia
-
Kristian Turner (@Kristian_Turner) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia Yes and says that the estimated fix time is 22:00 for all three!
-
Richard Hedges (@hedges1975) reported from Gorseinon, Wales@virginmedia would it be too much trouble for someone to fix my landline issue, I can't receive incoming calls, yet your call centre agents tell me there going to ring me back on my home line and then cut me off!!! Can't ring me back if I can't receive incoming calls!!!!!
-
Hywel (@Hywel79) reported from Swansea, WalesYou'd think when @virginmedia sent out a new router it'd be one that works better than the old one, apparently not though, this ones shite as well. 3 days in a row, three seemingly random bouts of just not working
-
Sebbong 🏴 (@DSebburn) reported from Bridgend, Wales@SweatDoggGaming @virginmedia Never had any issue with BT Been with them 15 years
-
G (@therealGDJ) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales@philhovestadt @virginmedia That is only half of the issue...
-
S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia Hey I’ve done everything on your website and still the same issues.
-
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.
-
🧑💻 Michał in CS (@michalincs) reported from Swansea, WalesI cancelled @virginmedia broadband as the price kept increasing, the service wasn't. They offered 75% more speed for 40% less as I was such a "loyal customers for years". Effectively, they admitted they were overcharging me for years hoping that will make me stay! No thank you.
-
Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia I just googled it and my issue is with my pc hooked to my router with an Ethernet cable, the WiFi is fine
-
𝗗𝗲𝘅 𝗙𝗶𝘁𝘇𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗱 (@Dex_Fitz) reported from Skewen, Wales@virginmedia No they have not. If they had done what they’ve advised they’d done, the complaint should be linked to my account? Surely?
-
🏴Shane🏴 (@Shane_Rees) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia I have and have been advised to reboot the router after 14:00. If I have any issues I will be back in touch.
-
Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia 200 down from what I can remember, I'm at work right now so I can't check but the speed isn't the issue. Also, I said "should" because based on his test, it's an above average connection, but in practice, it's wildly inconsistent in terms of ping, packet loss/timing.

Simon Rees (@si_rees) reported from Margam, Wales@virginmedia hi my speed has died to a crawl this morning in the SA13 2 area of Port Talbot. Have reset the Super Hub etc. Help needed please.
-
Vanessa Walsh (@NessafromNeath) reported from Neath, WalesDisappointed to be leaving Virgin Media having been a loyal customer for many years. Poor customer service- they were more than happy to terminate our contract without caring to discuss options. Having waited an age to discuss options this was so disappointing! #virginmedia
-
Elliot Griffiths (@ELGriff28) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia Yes, there is. I have outages every week and im trying to work from home. Everytime i call i get the same answer (theres nothing we can do) I asked to raise a complaint and i was told that agents arent allowed? Appalling service!!!!😡
-
👹JGall👹 (@_JGall) reported from Swansea, Wales@MrsSusanAlder @virginmedia Virgin are so bad I have them too
-
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.

GlenEagle. Better society now for disabled. (@BurnheadMax) reported@virginmedia The fact you've taken money when you shouldn't have and then wonder why your bill wasn't paid is called 'basic business'. If you compound your error by not allowing people to sign in, chances of resolution diminish. It's not rocket science.
-
HTL83 (@HTL832) reported@virginmedia can someone for the life of me help me out with this linked Virgin & 02 apps, can’t sign into my Virgin app, as my Virgin and 02 are u der two different emails. So tried merging them 3 times now! And still no joy!! can’t log into my Virgin at all! I’m so frustrated
-
Nichola 2020 (@NicolaDonnan) reported@virginmedia how do we speak to a real person? A lorry knocked down or phone pole today meaning 5 houses have lost their phone/ WiFi cable. We need to organise reconnection.
-
MJC (@CP1861) reported@virginmedia my account has now been locked for 3 months and therefore I’m unable to watch virgin tv go, one of the main reasons I’m your customer. I’ve phoned your customer services 7 times now and spent numerous hours on the phone speaking to your staff and on hold.
-
M U (@Shef1212) reported@virginmedia no internet, but I need to wait 5 days for engineer! You say you invest millions and increase prices. Been with you since 2010. Why is it so difficult to log a complaint on the phone too? Shocking & ridiculous service. My contract is due in 2 months.

⬣ fyfe79 ☘️ (@fyfe79) reported@VirginMediaNews Ireland's Minister for Justice: "Irish people are stupid". You're a disgrace O'Callaghan. The only people being manipulated are those who only get their news from RTE, Virgin Media etc.
-
just me (@PHILROOKS) reported@sharonmariahall @virginmedia It's not @virginmedia I find the issue, it's the poor customer service. I cannot understand how a CEO doesn't see all the bad reviews and do something about it.
-
concerned person (@nkgms) reportedIs there a problem with Virgin Media tv in the Bushey, Hertsmere area?
-
Rep74NL (@JohnnyRep74) reported@virginmedia your Webchat is awful , got an email regarding upgrading to 360 . Directed to webchat , 35 minutes later still trying to sort out what is an easy request . Your agent takes 10 minutes between each response to answer . I’m not bothering now
