    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?

  • TheBenWoodcock
    Benjamin Woodcock (@TheBenWoodcock) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia im getting really annoyed with your mobile service as I cannot receive any automated text messages (which makes 2FA for some stuff impossible). This is an ongoing issue. Also unable to get through to 150

    S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia TBH I’ve restarted the WiFi as per your tips online but the performance is really poor.

    @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.

    When you work from home you rely on the internet coverage from your supplier. Mine has gone down this morning with expected fix at 3pm. No prior warning from @virginmedia SHITE!!!!!

    @virginmedia is 5 hours waiting for your cancellation team standard procedure? Absolutely ridiculous customer service. You should be investigated and fined for this. Never going back to your services ever

  • Dgjbear1
    Dgjbear (@Dgjbear1) reported

    @bravemongoose @virginmedia You won’t get a reply from X either. They are simply closed. I’m guessing the company is close to collapse. I’m trying to cancel my contract to after 25 years

    @virginmedia explain to me why I received an update of payment starting 26th April of £55.50 month then get a bill of £82.67. Can find no reason for thisYour useless customer service don't even answer when phone absolute rubbish help with Terribot.

  • rolandhesz
    Roland Hesz 🎸⛩️🏳️‍🌈 (@rolandhesz) reported

    Hey @virginmedia, is it correct that I am not allowed to read the contract before I sign up but I still have to tick the "I have read it..." checkbox to sign up? That's what your customer service agent is telling me now. I thought it was a broken link but I'm told otherwise.

  • SteveSmith98
    Steve Smith (@SteveSmith98) reported

    Hi @virginmedia. Fault F012283434 started last Thursday and you're now saying you don't intend to fix it at all this week. Do you actually think it's OK for your customers to be unable to work for a week? Could you not even try to explain what's wrong and what you're doing?

    @Leaky23_ @virginmedia See this? Block this customer from any future services!

    @virginmedia I have been trying to contact VM since Thursday to sort out contract. Waited on the phone 2+ hours and got disconnected. Then spoke to someone saying they have technical issues. Now my bill has been issued at a higher price because I cant get through to you 😡

  • TRFCSW19
    londonswa (@TRFCSW19) reported

    @virginmedia your engineer came yesterday and lied about someone coming today to solve an issue he couldn’t fix. Now your online booking system not working. Been on hold for an hour now trying to speak to someone. Still no WiFi. Great way to treat a customer of 20years

    @virginmedia is there a power outage as some of my channels are missing such as Sky Crime, U & Gold? I've been on the ChatBOT for three hours with no reply and no answering the phone
