-
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.

🏴⚽️🏉Gareth Lloyd 🏉⚽️🏴 (@GarethLloyd18) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia awful customer service
-
Lee Smith 🌻 (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia The channel 4 one seems a bit flakey too. The opening sting on each service plays and then some ads but on both the programmes never play so I give up and use the smart TV apps instead. I've assumed it's a bandwidth issue but I suppose if ads are playing the progs should too.

lee williams (@thelee_x_w) reported from Cwmbran Central, WalesWord of warning avoid @virginmedia 4 wifi like the plague. I rarely get even 20% of advertised speeds & the CS team are next 2 useless.

Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England@virginmedia I have got this sorted with your team now. Helpful person. But I suggest changing your auto system to give callers an idea of wait time. Better customer service.
