  • thelee_x_w lee williams (@thelee_x_w) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia The image attached shows you have notified me of an issue

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia You really aren’t reading the messages, I’ve now told 3 different channels of my mothers death, I’ve called bereavement line to be hung up on, then closed early. I want a complaint raised, @Ofcom can you help?

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Your company is awful. I’ve called today waited 10min to the worst hold music only to be cut off. Call back to be told your closed now then state you are open between 9-6. Why are you deliberately obstructive?

  • GillibrandPeter Peter Gillibrand (@GillibrandPeter) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia any help? Seems a bit excessive if you’re citing inflation… a little bit of transparency may help…!

  • stuart_chc Stuart Ropke (@stuart_chc) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @eggynewydd @virginmedia Dismally slow. Yes.

  • andylance1977 andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia It works intermittently. This has been discussed over a series of phone calls through 12 months. A booster box has been sent too and its still poor. We're paying for a service we can't use when we want to. The TV box is next to the WiFi box downstairs & is still poor.

  • andylance1977 andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia why does it seem impossible to sort my TV and WiFi out? My partner has been phoning up on and off for a year or more about poor signal, not being able to use catch and apps and general poor service. Just get fobbed off.] Is this how you treat all customers?

  • amandaroberts10 amanda roberts (@amandaroberts10) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia is there a problem in the CF23 area ... no WiFi??

  • MaartenSleeckx MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia Screw you. Only me dying bothers anyone, literally anyone, it's always impossible to help me until people understand that I will kill myself. You're no better than them. See you in 2 weeks or not "AB".

  • MaartenSleeckx MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia Clearly not as the issue keeps coming back after multiple engineer fixes outside AND in my home. You're lying through your teeth and leaving me in the dark literally. Stop hiding behind "standard business" replies, be human and help me.

  • thelee_x_w lee williams (@thelee_x_w) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Word of warning avoid @virginmedia 4 wifi like the plague. I rarely get even 20% of advertised speeds & the CS team are next 2 useless. Paying 4 daily disappointment that upsets the kids. Will never go back 2 them ever. Worst service I ave ever received @EE was so much better

  • macauc01 Christina Macaulay (@macauc01) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia terrible service. You booked to install my equipment on 13th Dec 2023. Wrong year and no one will sort it out. Your fault entirely

  • benj8min Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I dunno mate, that's why I tried to call you lot. You can't help, so don't worry about it. Another weekend without TV and internet, waiting for your engineer to turn up. Another complaint. Another refund.

  • benj8min Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Another day in the life of a @virginmedia customer. TV showing fault. Ran online diagnostics, didn't fix. Site says to call. Call. Go through menu, TV, fault... sends me a text with a link to online diagnostics, says "thanks for calling" and hangs up. Worst. Company. Ever.

  • markccfc70 Mark Smith (@markccfc70) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Been with @virginmedia back as far as old NTL days. Downgrade our package for the first time ever to keep costs down, and the Internet must have crashed at least 8 times today, the day after we changed. Absolutely useless, on the phone tomorrow to cancel this **** completely.

  • NobbyD27 Rob Downer (@NobbyD27) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @syeporter180 @virginmedia Cancel the contract and go to Sky

  • Ruaraka1 Ruaraka (@Ruaraka1) reported

    @virginmedia You have answers for everything other than offering a normal service

  • Ruaraka1 Ruaraka (@Ruaraka1) reported

    @virginmedia disgusted with your service in the Osterley area TW7 area. Over one week of intermittent disruption. Just renewed my contract, checking if cooling period valid to cancel

  • JessMcLeod26266 Jess McLeod (@JessMcLeod26266) reported

    @virginmedia It says cannot connect to broadband kit in your home, what does this mean? Is there a outage in my area?

  • JessMcLeod26266 Jess McLeod (@JessMcLeod26266) reported

    @virginmedia is there an issue in the Newark-on-Trent area? I have no WiFi at all!

  • stanton_le48589 Lewis Stanton (@stanton_le48589) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, appreciate the reply. I finally got through to a human after calling 3-4 and confirming the issue is still present. A new hub is arriving tomorrow so I'll reply here if that doesn't fix the issue.

  • turner8619 John (exocet861) (@turner8619) reported

    @virginmedia why is your customer service so bad, the simplest of issues is over an hour wait, chat with a bot that's purposely designed to throw you off and no resolution at the end of it all, worst company I've ever dealt with

  • Seponemusic Sepone - Music Producer / DJ (@Seponemusic) reported

    Fed up of @EE and @virginmedia how they charge you but don’t deliver their service properly is abysmal

  • Geoff_Hobbs Geoff Hobbs (@Geoff_Hobbs) reported

    @virginmedia Once again, your service acts up , I do a service check and as always , it's not your equipment , something's wrong as my upload has dropped from 26mb to 5 thus stopping me from working.

  • Feisal313 FAZ ✨ (@Feisal313) reported

    @virginmedia A massive company and yet issues can't be fixed. People work from home. Internet is critical!!
