    @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 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.

    @virginmedia Could you tell me what department I need to speak to about set up issues after a house move, and what time they close please

  • 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

  • belock14
    Beccy Blackmore (@belock14) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m having problems getting through to your customer services, I’ve been trying since yesterday morning. This is unacceptable. Please can you send me a link for a web chat.

  • 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

  • MrsSusanAlder
    Susan Alder (@MrsSusanAlder) reported from Swansea, Wales

    When @virginmedia service status says everything is fine but it's been on and off since Saturday 😡😡 x

  • _katyjames

    @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

  • 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

    @virginmedia pls fix my wifi

  • 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.

  • identiti32
    Sara-Jane (@identiti32) reported from Price Town, Wales

    @virginmedia Sort IT OUT IF I DONT ANSWER I CANNOT BECAUSE NO INTERNET BECAUSE @Plusnet suck AT HOUSEMOVES AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL

  • 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

  • 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

    @virginmedia Router reboot “resolved” the problem although I didn’t get a chance to confirm there actually was an issue. Can routers be manually rebooted from your end on demand?

  • agawish
    Amr Gawish (@agawish) reported

    @virginmedia I have an account number and an area code, and have a phone password and everything. You can and you are able to track down all of this. Otherwise the service wouldn't have been able to eventually install, would it?

  • Amy_LeighC
    AmyLeigh (@Amy_LeighC) reported

    @virginmedia EVERY time I want to use the internet to watch TV at the moment it won’t connect, it’s the room next door, why is our connection so poor!!

  • DeakinDee
    Dee Deakin (@DeakinDee) reported

    Why are @virginmedia incapable of answering the phone to discuss our account! The only number we can get through to are the faults dept in South Africa. Don’t offer call backs, absolute joke. Very unhappy customer 😡😡

  • fatmalemodel
    🇪🇺🇬🇧Fat Male Model 🇺🇦🇺🇦#FBPE #Rejoin (@fatmalemodel) reported

    Never ever EVER use @virginmedia They are utterly ******* useless, they ****** up my order as a new customer, so I‘ve got a new broadband provider asap but their ineptness means I still have no internet despite successfully leaving those shitgibbons within 14 days of non-service

  • UnicornRunning
    Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported

    @virginmedia Re: Step 3 - when I said I was not happy with the offer over the phone I was not given the opportunity to escalate this to either a manager or senior manager. Your customer service policies are not being followed.

  • philmck74

    @virginmedia hi , my tv remote is damaged and not working. I have tried to order a new one through the website/app but message appears saying ‘oops the page your looking for isn’t there’ and so cannot order a new one. Can you help? Thanks

  • UnicornRunning
    Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported

    @virginmedia Well, seeing as Step 3 wasn't followed through, we don't have much choice. I'll also cite the other phantom calls issues on your customer forums

  • JimbobzP90
    James (@JimbobzP90) reported

    @HGTribute12 @virginmedia I have called customer services They have no idea either, the person said to me on the phone that they can see my equipment is not receiving a signal... Yeah because there is definitely an outage

  • UnicornRunning
    Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported

    @virginmedia We have a complaint raised and you have not been helpful. The phantom premium rate calls on the bill were not made, but you insist they were. An engineer has been out to check for crossed wires but another VM reply to my wife said this wouldn't make a difference.
