    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp I have. They were not great. I did explain that the voice options stated there was an issue. However, your email said it would have been sorted last week. You breached the 6 hour window and the 5 people I spoke to in Timbuktu didn't understand me all that well 🤦#poorservice

    Hi @virginmedia we pay for 100mb but are getting 3. Thanks a lot. Margam, Wales. Don't give me any of that survey crap or dumb links. You fix it. Thanks.

    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

  • George2Rachel
    Rachel George (@George2Rachel) reported from Neath, Wales

    @virginmedia After being on hold for over 50 minutes I had to end the call. I’m literally back to square one. That’s the problem.

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

  • 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

    @virginmedia business- 30 mins outage on Friday and its still off. Take it you are giving me a free couple of months for the poor service? Thanks, very kind.

  • Jackson_SCFC
    Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Again, I appreciate what you're saying, but similarly I've had an engineer to my house and he said that within the parameters of his test, that my connection should be better than average. This is an issue with how my connection is being routed.

  • SimonLew87

    @virginmedia why am I buying for you when your broadband service continues to disconnect?! #complaint 😡

    @virginmedia TBH I’ve restarted the WiFi as per your tips online but the performance is really poor.

    @virginmedia Can someone please help with an error code of 7400 with a TiVo box. I have been waiting on the phone for 30 minutes already. This is not a new installation but has just appeared. Help!

  • 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 🤦

    Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    Hello @virginmedia. My ntl email is down for third time in as many months and am unable to connect to the server. How long before it is back please?

    Richy (@MTFC_RIch) reported

    @OliverGMcManus @virginmedia Happened to me a few yrs ago. We had 3 wks outage, which they said was due to a part failing and would take 3 wks to get a new part. Left as soon as contract up and found a deal less than half what they were charging for same service

  • JohnPriestley70
    John Priestley (@JohnPriestley70) reported

    @virginmedia I am trying to link. I can get as far as confirm transfer. After a few seconds I get an error message page saying something about expired, then it jumps to VM page with login. Could not get a screenshot of the error message, it disappeared that fast.

    @BrianNicholso16 @virginmedia Their customer service is appalling, I've told them i am leaving and the date, which is my contract end date so they have sent me a bill for beyond that on out of contract fees

    @britfoodfinder @Benleo @virginmedia 29 days on and still account is locked. Had a reply to my oncoming complaint a week ago saying it would be unlocked in 3-5 working days from 18th May. Another 4 weeks and an official complaint to OFCOM will be going in if still unresolved
