    @virginmedia I'm moving home at the weekend so engineer's came out to the new property today to connect the outside cables to the house. They were unable to as the neighbours are using that cable. Hope you can help.

  • spilzzz Alice Spils (@spilzzz) reported from Swansea, Wales

  • hedges1975 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!!!!!

  • LucyMazuma Lucy Cohen (@LucyMazuma) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes so far. But apparently it's a temporary fix and they'll have to return again.

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia I was advised that I need to speak to a different department, by what feels like every department in Virgin Media! Whoever dealt with the house to house transfer has made an error.. and has somehow cancelled my service. But no department is taking responsibility to fix

  • stuartdavis21 Stuart Davis (@stuartdavis21) reported from Swansea, Wales

  • NessafromNeath Vanessa Walsh (@NessafromNeath) reported from Neath, Wales

    Disappointed 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

  • JaysonGurney Jayson Gurney (@JaysonGurney) reported from Darlington, England

    @Minal2804 @virginmedia I feel your pain and frustration. I'm have total loss of network and internet due to electrical problem caused by meter replacement with Utility Warehouse

  • MFC_Steve Steve (@MFC_Steve) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia so Virgin is a media company that is uncontactable by Phone, email, Twitter and message service. Who on earth would trust them with their business if they can’t manage themselves

  • brandscill Brandon Billingham (@brandscill) reported

    @virginmedia @SophiePorley Why do verified twitter users get preferential treatment? I'm just being fobbed off and told to ring back the same idiots who can't help me in the first place.

  • shutupbianca_ BiancaNoëlla🍉 (@shutupbianca_) reported

    @virginmedia But this is another hard year??? This makes no sense ? Why do you need to increase fees and not give customers a great service

  • TroutmanThe TheRealConanTroutman (@TroutmanThe) reported

    @virginmedia Why do you give perks to new customers but never to existing customers?

  • kingmonkey25 KINGMONKEY (@kingmonkey25) reported

    @virginmedia Can you not grasp that I'm completely aware of why that price increase happened? I had option to sign a new contract but I read the small print that said it wouldn't protect me from price increases so decided to pay the extra £7 to have the option to cancel anytime & here we are

  • neillhope lostinleith ADHD GAD DYSL (@neillhope) reported

    @vmbusiness I can't open my shop to get close top my customers as I've been waiting since the 19th of November for you to install my broadband. You are the worst company for customer service ever. Work was supposed to be done today but I've seen no one.

  • Miss_cliffy_28 Cliffy (@Miss_cliffy_28) reported

    @virginmedia our broadband has been abysmal of late as it keeps dropping. Seems to be a common issue. I spent from 10:30 yday waiting for someone to contact me using your new Bot number, with no joy, and it wanted me to start from scratch again today. Appalling service😡

  • Lennieboy72 🇬🇧 LENNY ☘️ (@Lennieboy72) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah by putting their bills up £3.50 a month or removing their broadband. Ruthless service.

  • Mr_Liam__ Liam Pilcher (@Mr_Liam__) reported

    @claraantonella_ You with @virginmedia aswell? Absolutely awful
