    @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.

    @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

    @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!!!!!

  • Adamcroft1996
    Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales

    @virginmedia He apparently told my neighbour that it will just come on at some point tonight? I don’t really hold a lot of faith with that as he had no idea what the issue was?

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

  • Hywel79
    Hywel (@Hywel79) reported from Swansea, Wales

    You'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

  • 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

  • grumpyoldprof
    Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @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!

    @virginmedia thank you for keeping me on hold for the last 35 minutes then disconnecting me. I really didn’t have anything better to do on a Friday evening. Useless customer service continues

    @virginmedia An engineer was booked to attend today and yet again they have not turned up. This is the 6th appointment where no engineer has turned up. A complaint was raised on the 7th Jun and still hasn’t beeen acknowledged within the 48hrs inline with your own policy.

  • MakelyStudio
    Ali@Makely (@MakelyStudio) reported

    10+ years. 50M+ users. £11M+ revenue impact. Mercedes. Citibank. Sky. Virgin Media. NatWest. Here's what I learned: Bad product flows can cost thousands, or even millions, in lost revenue. Regardless of company size. What kills conversions in big-name products does the same for startups: - Onboarding that loses people in the first 60 secs - Pricing pages that confuse instead of convert - Sign-up flows that cause decision fatigue I’ve seen that when you fix these - you get more from the traffic you already have. Now I build those same systems for funded startups - so they keep the users they've already paid to get.

    AngMacca (@AngMacca) reported

    @virginmedia hi, our internet has been intermittent since 30th May (ML2), with resolution dates moving back repeatedly. Can you advise on a ACTUAL date from which we will resume 100% service?

  • irishbazdev
    Barry Devlin (@irishbazdev) reported

    @virginmedia Two months + before I get contacted by 02/Virgin Media regarding my ongoing complaint and all you can offer me for broken promises is £20. No phone calls before today and you are a communication company. Not good enough!

  • Mteasel67
    mark teasel💙💙💙 (@Mteasel67) reported

    @virginmedia is your website down at all ? , I'm trying to look at some links you sent me earlier ( via X) and all I get is an error message 403 forbidden 🤔

    dawnieC (@CorkinDawn) reported

    @virginmedia yet again cant access email. Forbidden 403 error, is anyone else having this problem? I am waiting for an important email. I really should switch to gmail as virgin are too frequently unreliable

  • darrenhayes1973
    Darren Hayes (@darrenhayes1973) reported

    @virginmedia I did ask to complain when I rung up to cancel and was put on hold for ages so hung up!!

    @virginmedia So @virginmedia what are you doing about this problem? And failure on the part of your company?

    James Robertson (@JameskRobbo) reported

    @virginmedia make it impossible to cancel tv subscription. Unhelpful when I tell them the registered email is an old work email. They will get there equipment back smashed to pieces

    Jonathan Black (@jonblackbsb) reported

    I love on a street where it seems over 50% of households use @VMO2Life @virginmedia . That’s quite a lot of £££ per month paid out . But for the best part of a year everyone’s work has been disrupted by poor or no service . Apparently it’s noise emanating from a house 🏠 🤷1/2
