  • bigchristweets Chris Davies (@bigchristweets) reported from Gorseinon, Wales

    @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.

  • The_Dave_89 The_Viking (@The_Dave_89) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @GalePrime @AshBoio @LoREclipse It's still **** as it's virgin media

  • adewagstaff Ade Wagstaff Physio MACP 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@adewagstaff) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp I have. They were not great. I did explain that the voice options stated there was an issue. However, your email said it would have been sorted last week. You breached the 6 hour window and the 5 people I spoke to in Timbuktu didn't understand me all that well 🤦#poorservice

  • Adamcroft1996 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?

  • 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 🤦

  • adewagstaff Ade Wagstaff Physio MACP 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@adewagstaff) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia business- 30 mins outage on Friday and its still off. Take it you are giving me a free couple of months for the poor service? Thanks, very kind.

  • 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 😡

  • KevDocChild Kevin Child (@KevDocChild) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia you really are impossible!20+ years as a customer, you invite me to get in touch to discuss my end of contract choices, then provide the lamest excuses when I try but fail! Mmm #timeforachangeofprovider

  • michalincs 🧑‍💻 Michał in CS (@michalincs) reported from Swansea, Wales

    I cancelled @virginmedia broadband as the price kept increasing, the service wasn't. They offered 75% more speed for 40% less as I was such a "loyal customers for years". Effectively, they admitted they were overcharging me for years hoping that will make me stay! No thank you.

  • grumpyoldprof Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    Hello @virginmedia. I cannot sign in to my ntlworld email - it says my password is not recognised. Is the server down please as my password has not changed. This has happened at least 6 times in the last 12 months.

  • philcowley2 Phil Cowley #YJB4LIFE (@philcowley2) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia PS I know the link is at the bottom when you scroll down, it's just it would be easier if it was at the top

  • grumpyoldprof Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    Hello @virginmedia. My ntl email is down for third time in as many months and am unable to connect to the server. How long before it is back please?

  • enfysjack Paul Johnson (@enfysjack) reported from Swansea, Wales

    He @virginmedia Can you explain to me why a new customer can have the same package as me for £33 ? Whilst I am currently paying £85

  • JOHNSONGAYNOR GAYNOR JOHNSON (@JOHNSONGAYNOR) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @virginmedia Had trouble with TV since this morning. Now have just BBC and ITV. Tried phoning but had short message saying they are busy and phone later! Phoned later…same message! What’s going on!?

  • MrandMrs50Plus MrandMrs50Plus (@MrandMrs50Plus) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia So you can't supply daughter's new house with broadband and so insist on a termination fee?!? They don't want to terminate. You're the ones who can't honour the contract! Can you please help here?

  • Adamcroft1996 Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales

    @virginmedia had no wifi since essential work was carried out in the area yesterday. It was supposed to be back up by 4pm yesterday. Neighbour had same issue engineer came out to neighbour and realised we both had the same problem. He said he would let me know what 1/2

  • enfysjack Paul Johnson (@enfysjack) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia £50 more for the same package seems unfair to your loyal existing customer's

    @virginmedia All mail has been either ignored or responded to with no suitable advice for my issue. Telephone - no help. I'm not talking about hanging up after 5 or 10 minutes. Even well over an hour of waiting doesn't help. Twitter - no help. It goes in One Month (19/02/2021). Court it is.

    @virginmedia your phone lines dont work, the people on the other end of live chathave taken 3 hours to help me out, still not sorted. I just had one person cancel my premium sports subscription without my consent and pass me off to another department who will take another 3 hours

  • TheLondonTaxiTr The London Taxt Trasnsport Co (@TheLondonTaxiTr) reported

    @virginmedia can you explain your one gig broad band is slower than the 350mb and is more expensive a@d to try to get help with this new router is like trying to get hold of lord lucan. Maybe I should just stop paying and see if you contact me
