    @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 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

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

  • 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?

  • Sixth_Form_Coll
    Swansea Sixth form College (@Sixth_Form_Coll) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia so disappointed with your service. It’s been 9 months since we changed our package and still @virginmedia cannot get a simple Direct debit form processed correctly.

    @virginmedia I have and have been advised to reboot the router after 14:00. If I have any issues I will be back in touch.

  • si_rees
    Simon Rees (@si_rees) reported from Margam, Wales

    @virginmedia My wife rang (as account in her name) eventually got through, and an engineer is expected in next few hours as I connection at all now!!Poor/no mobile signal at home as booster box is connected to your router, so even more inconvenience right now.

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

    @virginmedia you really are impossible!20+ years as a customer, you invite me to get in touch to discuss my end of contract choices, then provide the lamest excuses when I try but fail! Mmm #timeforachangeofprovider

  • JonoTobin
    Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia I was advised that I need to speak to a different department, by what feels like every department in Virgin Media! Whoever dealt with the house to house transfer has made an error.. and has somehow cancelled my service. But no department is taking responsibility to fix

  • Dex_Fitz
    𝗗𝗲𝘅 𝗙𝗶𝘁𝘇𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗱 (@Dex_Fitz) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @virginmedia So you’re telling me that because 3 separate members of your staff have lied and not raised a complaint when I’ve asked, I now need to send you a letter? Are you joking? #VirginMedia

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Yes so far. But apparently it's a temporary fix and they'll have to return again.

    @virginmedia ive now spoken to three of your customer services team over the last few days to confirm at the end of my contract which was 31 May I wanted all my tv package to be ceased and broadband services to be reduced to 350mb on a rolling contract...tv still working!!

  • TheAdamMarsden
    Adam Marsden (@TheAdamMarsden) reported

    @virginmedia absolute garbage- was told moving house would be a ‘smooth’ transition? Instead charging me for two accounts, harassed via email and phone. Told this would be resolved. ALL LIES. Now they’ve cut our internet off. DO NOT TRUST!

  • andrhay12
    andrhay (@andrhay12) reported

    @virginmedia when will the problem with TV and broadband in the SE1 be fixed this has been ongoing for 2 weeks now. Intermittent broadband and tv for 2 weeks. last 3 days no TV services - no updates

  • alantucker
    Alan (@alantucker) reported

    Finally got rid of @virginmedia broadband, TV and telephone services. Broadband is now supplied by @toobbroadband with a TV streaming service from @skytv

  • Lulette5772
    C B (@Lulette5772) reported

    @virginmedia why is your app so useless, can’t do anything with it as any actions takes you to chat. You’re forced to chat/call VM for everything. My contract is ending, so had to call VM, a torturous experience. After 30minutes on hold achieved basically nothing. It’s so poor

  • NLinnane
    nikky linnane (@NLinnane) reported

    Is Elaine Burke the only tech expert available in Ireland for tv ? She's never off virgin media and now she's on rte news. It would be great if we could have other view points not just one because they are connected to the right people.

  • MawsonAsht43296
    Ashton Mawson (@MawsonAsht43296) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down in Gloucestershire, estimated fix is the 10/6, four days away, is that some sort of joke ?!? What’s actually going on. Elderly people who rely on the broadband are without essential services due to this, what’s happening ?!?!

  • usmaenghani

    @virginmedia one of the worst technical, customer call and messaging service you have.

    @virginmedia Hi! Since 14th Grandad has got "Title Not Available" on all channels and experiencing intermittent issues with picture. Looks like not connected to Virgin Network but only option is wired when never has been wired?! Tried hard resets on both box and router.
