  • Vanilla__Slice Sarah (@Vanilla__Slice) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @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.

  • DragonEmbers Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

    Can't take Virgin Media to my new address because the estate is too new and they don't have Virgin Media in those streets yet. First world problems 😂

  • belock14 Beccy Blackmore (@belock14) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m having problems getting through to your customer services, I’ve been trying since yesterday morning. This is unacceptable. Please can you send me a link for a web chat.

  • DragonEmbers Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Having to pay an early disconnection fee because you don't run services there is brilliant customer service 😂

  • _JGall 👹JGall👹 (@_JGall) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @MrsSusanAlder @virginmedia Virgin are so bad I have them too

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia Could you tell me what department I need to speak to about set up issues after a house move, and what time they close please

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    Spend hours waiting for someone to answer @virginmedia then they just tell me ‘wait till tomorrow and it will work’. And it never does, cancellation never sounded so appealing

  • MrsSusanAlder Susan Alder (@MrsSusanAlder) reported from Swansea, Wales

    When @virginmedia service status says everything is fine but it's been on and off since Saturday 😡😡 x

  • 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.

  • Jackson_SCFC 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

  • Jackson_SCFC 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.

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @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

  • paul_g89 Paul G (@paul_g89) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia pls fix my wifi

  • 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

  • Liverpoolcallin James O'Leary (@Liverpoolcallin) reported

    @ErinNYC75 @Verizon I had similar CRAP with @virginmedia a couple of years ago over here. Offered me £200 trade in with my old device. Sent it off and then only offered £50 with no website or number. Sent them a letter to return my phone,which they didnt and where taking 2 payments a month from me.

  • christPJames Chris James (@christPJames) reported

    I have submitted a formal complaint to @virginmedia (complaint reference C-2511202106) it has been ignored I have run out of ideas, they are charging me £79 per month for a service that hasn’t worked in months Thanks @Ofcom for any advice

  • mickyginn Micky Ginn (@mickyginn) reported

    @virginmedia I managed to get a technician to visit next Monday. It took 1 hour and 1 minute to sort. The conversation lasted 3 minutes. The customer service we have to put up with is nigh on disgusting 🥵🥵🥵

  • christPJames Chris James (@christPJames) reported

    Hello @Ofcom I have been without broadband for months. This has been acknowledged by Virgin Media Support Community who say it requires an engineer to fix Unfortunately @virginmedia refuse to communicate on the issue

  • UdaySodha uday sodha (@UdaySodha) reported

    And now TV gone too ! Amazingly crap service again from @virginmedia . #virginmediadown

  • mikast71 mike astley (@mikast71) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, the issue is still the same with the hub3 not behaving well and the coverage being poor too. I’ll probably have to put it into modem mode and spend some more money on a proper mesh router.

  • scottsyns Steven Scott (@scottsyns) reported

    @virginmedia I was due to pay you £79 on 15th Dec, changed my DD to 29th Dec and told by your customer service that I am only due £23.70, no payment now due on 15th and DD 28th Jan back to £79. Guess I will keep the £55.30 that I'm due you. Merry Xmas

  • widow1775 widowmuse (@widow1775) reported

    Just phoned @virginmedia trying to reduce my bill £61.50 a month is far too much for me. Thank you for being a valued customer for 5 years best we can do is £60 are you joking?! Think I’ll be going to sky #rediculous #notokhun

  • MartinRisbyVR MartinRisbyVR (@MartinRisbyVR) reported

    @virginmedia Crap

  • MsRebeccaChance RebeccaChance (@MsRebeccaChance) reported

    @virginmedia So I am telling you that your public team did indeed assist me with this a few months ago by getting in touch with the complaints team, who contacted me, SB. Has the policy changed? Or are you wrong? Or were they wrong back then? I'll need this info for the complaint to CIFAS.
