    @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

    @virginmedia I have had: -An upgrade -An engineer come and change the box outside my house -A brand new hub -New power line adapters -My connection tested on your end numerous times And yet the connection, 99 times out of 100, feels like total shit whenever I use anything intensive.

  • DragonEmbers
    Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

    Can't take Virgin Media to my new address because the estate is too new and they don't have Virgin Media in those streets yet. First world problems 😂

  • 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

    Helen Roberts 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Babyeh66) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Hello, can’t get into @NetflixUK on TiVo box tonight getting error code A01, haven’t had this problem before please help

  • DragonEmbers
    Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

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

  • _katyjames
    kat 🍊 (@_katyjames) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia We had a box fitted yesterday and the signal just isn’t working, it drops ever other minute or so and we can only get service in the room where the box is

  • Jackson_SCFC
    Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Again, I appreciate what you're saying, but similarly I've had an engineer to my house and he said that within the parameters of his test, that my connection should be better than average. This is an issue with how my connection is being routed.

  • 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

  • JonJamesPhoto81
    JonJamesPhotography (@JonJamesPhoto81) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia @johnmclaren1972 All I’m seeing are apologies but still no resolution to fixing issues, providing a decent service or looking after existing customers. I’ll be changing to sky next month.

  • Jackson_SCFC
    Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @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.

  • Vanilla__Slice
    Sarah (@Vanilla__Slice) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @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 is a complete joke. I can't afford to pay my bill this month but I can pay it next month but instead of giving me a break they just threaten to block my access to internet and tv -.- **** show

  • ohnoitisXavier
    Xavier (@ohnoitisXavier) reported

    @virginmedia I normally always pay on time so I have never needed an extension before. I was told by a member of your team on the 10th that I didn’t owe any money on the 10th of January but then I get a call from the collections team saying I do

  • stuartshawcross
    stuart shawcross (@stuartshawcross) reported

    @virginmedia I waited online for 30 mins this morning and got nowhere. I must say you make it so incredibly difficult to cancel, it actually puts me off staying with Virgin.

  • realjakub86
    Jakub Koudela 🇨🇿 (@realjakub86) reported

    @virginmedia hi, no outages reported in my area. What would this screen suggest? Laptop connected via LAN on virgin router? Is new router required or are there any issues nearby? Thank you

  • theshortblue
    kevin duffield (@theshortblue) reported

    @virginmedia Still waiting CW, is this the equivalent of being cut off by the installations team this morning on the telephone? Why not direct message me and help with the problem?

  • Kamikazerub
    TheJrue (@Kamikazerub) reported

    @virginmedia Thought you were going to add something after my reply, but you probably had the 'our team is trying to fix the issue it as fast as possible' in your pocket and since I used it already you chose just no to answer. Fair...

    @virginmedia Yes they are. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. Android O/s is up to date. If you type in priorty app in to twitter, loads of people are having problems.
