    @virginmedia Is there anyone working tonight? My box is not working and is stuck on the starting up page. Been like it for about 3 hours. Waited on the phone for an hour then got cut off, been waiting for another 2 hours 😡

    @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.

  • ELGriff28
    Elliot Griffiths (@ELGriff28) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia by far the most awful company there is for customer service and Broadband!! Would not recommend anyone to join this company they dont want to help atall 😡

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

    @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.

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia No, I've gone down this route before, just look in to your routing servers and or the bandwidth limit. Any time I do anything remotely intensive all packets start getting dropped. I'm on my knees.

    chris (@chris061183) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @mb1984 @virginmedia mine is exactly the same keeps going off . it's a load of crap sent me new box and no change. 🤬

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

    @virginmedia No they have not. If they had done what they’ve advised they’d done, the complaint should be linked to my account? Surely?

  • MikeARose98
    Michael (@MikeARose98) reported from Cwmafan, Wales

    @virginmedia why are your customer advisors refusing to let people leave? I keep getting hung up on within a few minutes after they've transferred me between each other a few times. This service is shockingly bad 😡

  • YilmazKml
    Kamil Yılmaz (@YilmazKml) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @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.

  • Kristian_Turner
    Kristian Turner (@Kristian_Turner) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes and says that the estimated fix time is 22:00 for all three!

  • therealGDJ
    G (@therealGDJ) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales

    @virginmedia do you actually offer any kind of service??

  • SimonLew87
    S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Hey I’ve done everything on your website and still the same issues.

  • Gezz99
    Geraint Reynolds (@Gezz99) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia please update your Virgin Mobile automated message which says lines are open until 22:00. I called at 21:05 and connected to a lost & stolen line who couldn't help and also said they couldn't feed back to anyone that the automated message is wrong 🤦

  • MrBenGrant
    Ben Grant (@MrBenGrant) reported

    £70 a month for broadband, but support shuts at 6pm on a Saturday. Virgin’s reliability is truly awful @virginmedia

  • almacchiato
    Alma Lapuebla-Funk (@almacchiato) reported

    @virginmedia Hi! I noticed our internet has been experiencing service outage frequently this year (17 times). We have a new Wifi Hub but we’re still experiencing the outage. What’s going on?

  • theRealNickle
    Time for change (@theRealNickle) reported

    @virginmedia Failure to keep promises and agreements made to resolve issues. Wrong phone number, no Netflix and a request to return equipment I'm still paying for.

    @virginmedia Hi im Having trouble with my Internet can you confirm there's an issue please DE75 7DH no26

  • drdjmarks
    Skids (@drdjmarks) reported

    I've had half a dozen or so emails from @virginmedia in the last 6 months offering me a new hub at no extra cost. Each time I'm asked to click the link to order, but each time it merely takes me through to my current service status with no option to order? Extremely annoying.
