    @virginmedia why is WiFi down for the fourth time this week whilst the app says service is fine? I know it’s not just my box.

  • YilmazKml Kamil Yılmaz (@YilmazKml) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia what is difficult about transferring my Internet to my new address? I have spoken to your agents umpteenth times, received confirmation that my request has been received, but still no internet service after nearly two weeks...this is really annoying.

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

  • Veronica_Cino Véronica (@Veronica_Cino) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia You guys are the worst literally, your replies are so slow!

  • 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.

  • IROJDP Jonathan🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@IROJDP) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia been on hold for over an hour and twenty mins with my 90yo dad to try to solve a C130 connection problem. And still no answer. Absolute shambles customer service

  • TheBenWoodcock Benjamin Woodcock (@TheBenWoodcock) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia im getting really annoyed with your mobile service as I cannot receive any automated text messages (which makes 2FA for some stuff impossible). This is an ongoing issue. Also unable to get through to 150

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

    @virginmedia Are there problems in the Swansea area? Internet has been dropping out periodically for the last 2 days.

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Hey I’ve done everything on your website and still the same issues.

  • CLlewellyn19 Chris Llewellyn (@CLlewellyn19) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Got through to someone this morning. A new box is needed and a technician booked for Tuesday. Any chance you can contact my mate @wrighty1313 he’s been having issues too 👍

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Absolutely awful considering the service provided by your company is terrible, I’m still waiting for a response to my complaint!

  • MarkDav96152735 Mark Davis (@MarkDav96152735) reported from Gorseinon, Wales

    When you work from home you rely on the internet coverage from your supplier. Mine has gone down this morning with expected fix at 3pm. No prior warning from @virginmedia SHITE!!!!!

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yeah I’ve done that and same issues

  • CLlewellyn19 Chris Llewellyn (@CLlewellyn19) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Is there anyone working tonight? My box is not working and is stuck on the starting up page. Been like it for about 3 hours. Waited on the phone for an hour then got cut off, been waiting for another 2 hours 😡

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes I have and it’s says there are no issues. It’s frustrating as I’m working from home and continues to drop or go off.

  • Veronica_Cino Véronica (@Veronica_Cino) reported from Swansea, Wales

  • mikeyowen2 Michael owen Ⓜ (@mikeyowen2) reported from Cwmafan, Wales

    @virginmedia network is the worst WiFi I have ever witnessed in my life.

  • TheBenWoodcock Benjamin Woodcock (@TheBenWoodcock) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia a lot of good your mobile service is when I cant call 111 from my phone

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

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

  • LizBragg6 Liz Bragg💙 (@LizBragg6) reported

    @virginmedia You misunderstand. The first engineer was installing .... I’m a brand new customer.... he left and it has never worked ... not ‘not been fixed’ actually not installed properly !!!

  • herbieflowerz Seán Kelly (@herbieflowerz) reported

    @virginmedia Hi there, I'm hoping to change my broadband direct debit to another bank account. Will I need to cancel the original direct debit or will it be done automatically?

  • Francis78Jackie jackie francis (@Francis78Jackie) reported

    @richardbranson, your Virgin Media does not do you proud. Customer service on 0345454111. Never answer calls. 5 months of on going problems. Mr Branson sort this out.

  • 2Steady4U Luke Shadwell (SteadyOn) (@2Steady4U) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah I think it is - weirdly it seems like this is stored as a voicemail, but with three people on the line. Maybe an issue with someone else's call routing outside of virgin

  • Markrose70 Mark Rose (@Markrose70) reported

    @virginmedia Hello. I am having problems and cannot contact ANYBODY VIA ANY MEDIUM. So frustrating, I have had enough and want to cancel my contract. What do I do? Thanks.

  • ian23_wright Ian Wright (@ian23_wright) reported

    @virginmedia We keep losing connection and when we are connected it’s very slow. Before we upgraded the service was better

  • danielcostaceo Danielcostaceo (@danielcostaceo) reported

    @virginmedia your service was installed in my house on saturday. I'm not even able to see videos on youtube and that's 100mbs.

  • simonwarbo Simon (@simonwarbo) reported

    Virgin media let us down once - 2 week delay to service they said they could deliver. Now let us down again. Another 2 week wait. Appealing communication. All autobots and incapable@customer service. Avoid. Richard B would be embarrassed at the state of this brand. @virginmedia

  • PJ7719 PJ77 (@PJ7719) reported

    @virginmedia Well I'm paying for a service which I'm not receiving, I'm only getting decent internet connect in 3 rooms of my house, I have signal boosters as well. I've never been tempted by Sky, but looking at their contracts they seem cheaper and they also offer a wifi guarantee

  • superflyguy777 David Reoch (@superflyguy777) reported

    @virginmedia hi there, trying to sort out WiFi issues with Suzanne- not very helpful, indeed quite patronising. How can I speak to someone who will listen and try and help me...
