    @virginmedia Reading @StrictlyDavina comments regarding lack of customer service with @VirginMedia I wholeheartedly agree ; it leaves a lot to be desired . @virginmedia need to apply the service the customers are paying for instead of continually increasing their prices .

  • crowley180 Graham Crowley (@crowley180) reported from Pyle, Wales

    @Cdmconsultltd @virginmedia They all boast great customer service but it’s shocking the way they treat you

  • 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

  • Botleylady  Val  (@Botleylady) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m totally disgusted with your call centre service I’ve just had a call from them & the person in question conveniently cut me off whilst in process of speaking to him. This has happened before & a complaint ignored. Value your customers you don’t know the meaning

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply, the room where my hub is has great WiFi, my study has my laptop and printer, however WiFi is poor. I’d like to put some kinda booster in there, I did a test and looked into ordering one from you but was dismayed to being told it will cost £3 per mth plus del

  • KevDocChild Kevin Child (@KevDocChild) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia please sort yourselves out, we’ve been without TV all day, WiFi on and off all day. I pay you handsomely for a service that you rarely deliver to expectations #poorservicestanards #awfulcustomerservice #timetoconsideranewprovider

  • Leelamou Sophie 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Leelamou) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia It was definitely intentional! Anyway... an hour later I finally managed to cancel. Won’t ever be using you again. See ya 👋🏼

  • SproutStenner Angharad Stenner (@SproutStenner) reported from Cefn Cribwr, Wales

    @SkyUK have to be the worst broadband provider in existence. Can not wait for @virginmedia to get up to the crib and have a decent broadband provider #skyout #virginin

  • missscarlymarie carly marie lloyd (@missscarlymarie) reported from Neath, Wales

  • DuncanHarrop Duncan (@DuncanHarrop) reported

    @virginmedia Unfortunately I’ve been given no reference. When I have gotten through to someone they’ve only said theres an outage and will be fixed by 11th Feb, then 17th Feb...

  • chrisjonbennett Chris Bennett (@chrisjonbennett) reported

    @virginmedia I've been on the phone with you for over an hour and now you've just cut me off. I've been trying to cancel my contract / disconnect services for a month now. I'm cancelling my DD - this is unacceptable service.

  • dave_taylor1265 Dave(6x🏆)🔴CHAMP19NS 🔴 (@dave_taylor1265) reported

    @virginmedia we cancelled our contract had various calls to keep the service but told them no.we have now had an email saying thanks for making changes and started a new contract tried to call for days but no answer if we get no response we will be getting in touch with @Ofcom

  • _Jxeleach Joe (@_Jxeleach) reported

    @virginmedia Ironically he said the last time there was a problem with the “little green box at the end of the street” and we needed switching to a new Chanel. I’m not sure if that means anything to you but even after he’s done that... it’s still broken. Previously they blamed the hardware

  • AstroTaff AstroTaff (@AstroTaff) reported

    Can someone at #virginmedia help explain a very confusing letter sent to me please?

  • rtalwar Rohit Talwar (@rtalwar) reported

    Does anyone know how to cancel @virginmedia broadband? I've been trying for ten days and their customer care people are the worst and rudest I've ever come across.

  • annecambridge Anne Campbell (@annecambridge) reported

    @LucyWCam @virginmedia I had same problem and eventually cancelled my subscription. That prompted them to ring me! I have now changed over to Zen for broad band and just using free view for TV. It is wonderfully trouble free and costs a fraction of Virgin- and they have terrific customer service!

  • rtalwar Rohit Talwar (@rtalwar) reported

    By now I have spent ~12 hours trying to get rid of a @virginmedia connection. They make you wait, make you speak to 3 different [unhelpful] teams and then disconnect while you're talking. The lack of service to paying customers is frankly shocking.

  • Tim31065542 Tim (@Tim31065542) reported

    @smiles333 @MartinSLewis @virginmedia Just stop your DD. Their quick enough to contact you then. When they took over from NTL they tried to screw me over by breaking the channels up into packages. But I never paid them a penny because I’d never been informed that they’d taken over NTL.

  • elleymariee elley (@elleymariee) reported

    @virginmedia hey my box has broken and I can’t get hold of anybody l! Could you please help?
