How, in a capital city, is this happening everyday, with your engineers unable to do anything to improve the situation. …and what about that refund, as we are paying for internet which we are not getting?

Nathan Rhys George (@orangethunder_) reported from Cardiff, WalesI feel awful for the @virginmedia social media staff. Bosses - invest more in infrastructure to genuinely improve services and stop these poor people being treated like ****. Also, pay your taxes.

Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia But the team is impossible to contact!!! And when you do get in contact it’s always someone else’s problem, ‘oh I’ll just pass you onto my colleague’ etc. I’ve WhatsApped the help number too and been told it’s a long wait and told I can ‘get on with [my] day’ - absolute joke.

Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia With respect, your customer service advisors are useless. As is the technology for contacting them. As per my initial message. Last time I went through this I was booked a chat appointment by your twitter team with someone who specifically handled the complaint.

-
BigF (@Bigg_F_) reported@virginmedia Yes. Eventually got through via chat to a real person. They advised a factory reset of hub which is a complete pain to set back up and it made no difference. Engineer arranged to come today. I also raised a formal complaint. Mysteriously it’s working two hours later.
-
Kathryn Barrow (@kathrynbarrow) reported@virginmedia When will the broadband and TV issue be sorted in KT2?

entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@Oldbloke74 @virginmedia I have to admit the bloke on the call centre helpline was really nice and helpful but the problem was he seems to just have been making up stuff to make me happy with what I heard as what he said and what has actually happened aren't even close to being in the same postcode 😢
-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@BertySi @virginmedia That's certainly the least they should be doing IMHO. This is a ridiculously long period of being unable to access their service @virginmedia, can this be organised as a matter of urgency? I have sent a DM as well
-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reportedDay 4 of poor followed by NO broadband service from good old @virginmedia. Fix now predicted to be by 29/4/26😡 Worryingly, none of their previous predictions have proved accurate Shocking and unacceptable performance #GetItSorted
-
Aidan Costello (@aidan_codtello) reported@entrustTMF @virginmedia I've done a postcode check and it says intermittent problems.
