  • 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

  • garethslee
    Gareth Slee  (@garethslee) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia My internet has been up and down for the last few days. This morning it completely failed. Rebooted hub a few times but still no go SA13 area.

  • 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

    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

    Customer service is an alien concept to @virginmedia

    @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.

    @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

  • bigchristweets
    Chris Davies (@bigchristweets) reported from Gorseinon, Wales

    @virginmedia I'm aware of the line you're taking to defend the 11% increase but the point is that your service is rubbish as demonstrated by the third image. We have to chuck £200 to Google to get a hub that works. I presume you're not getting an 11% pay rise this year. I know I'm not.

    And finally, got through, but transferred so another 30 minutes wait. Package sorted but oh my word, @virginmedia sort yourselves out: 1. Employ more first line staff 2. Fix your chat bot 3. Get a catalogue of hold music. The same track over and over again is torture.

    @virginmedia I’ve spent the best part of my afternoon trying to cancel my expensive out of contract broadband. Chat just exits without on app and PC and I’ve been on hold for 40 mins on phone no one answers. Do I just cancel the £93 a month DD because that is ridiculous

  • ForkYeah07
    Moderately Sarcastic (@ForkYeah07) reported

    An absolute nightmare getting onboard with Virgin Media broadband. They changed my appointment on the last day. Who the hell is going to pay me for the inconvenience this will have? This is absolutely ridiculous. Is this the service you guys provide?? @virginmedia
