    @virginmedia I shall be raising a complaint yes. No attempt to find out if the router is faulty, just trying to sell more services. You have failed to deliver against your contract and the customer service is shocking. My complaint shall go to OFCOM also @Ofcom

  • EllenParker6 Ellen Parker (@EllenParker6) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia 4 month countdown to get rid of you your customer service is beyond rude. Your technical support is lacking in manners and availability. @SkyUK we are on our way back sorry for leaving biggest mistake ever. We may have saved £20 but not worth the shit service

  • LouisPMertens Louis Mertens (@LouisPMertens) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    1/2 My exp. with @VirginMedia has been a farce involving incorrect contract lengths, engineers insisting my package can't be installed bc customer service sold me a service that doesn't exist, phone calls from Virgin saying the engineers are wrong...

  • HenLifeModelGuj Arty Hen Party (@HenLifeModelGuj) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @keeleyscorner @AngieCQuinn @virginmedia Virgin is fine on the whole. It uses the EE network

    Yo wag1 @virginmedia mans phone is down, it’s been hours

  • michaelck1972 Michael (@michaelck1972) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I shared the screen prints of what they said. No attempt was made to diagnose or resolve. Only to sell boosters despite me advising them I have major WiFi issues. I’ve kept all the messages and you did bring but try to con me out of more money. And now you call me a liar!!

  • philmonkey Phil Rogers (@philmonkey) reported from Ponthir, Wales

    @virginmedia @DannyHackett Be careful with the fob offs Danny - if it’s a connection problem (not your in house WiFi) then Virgin, as with any other cable company, can see your connection status from the modem to their services via DOCSIS and also should be able to see logs too 😉

  • MJSwindlehurst Matthew Swindlehurst (@MJSwindlehurst) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @jordanjaylam @virginmedia @richardbranson 6 engineers out and 2 WiFi box later and still not working Jordan, a quite atrocious customer service

  • DeanConway1 Dean Conway (@DeanConway1) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia your customer service is a joke!!

    @virginmedia After being a mobile customer for 10 years I have cancelled.

  • SheilaDuers Sheila Duers#GermanyPlus (@SheilaDuers) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Never watched either and never will.

  • michaelck1972 Michael (@michaelck1972) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Worst customer service in the world. No attempt to diagnose or resolve an issue. Just try to upsell! #awful #broadband #virginmedia

  • GarethWHeating Gareth Williams (@GarethWHeating) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia I was told there was a problem with the cell that has now been rectified. There was nothing at all wrong with the phone but it cuts out all the time. Always has...

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I desperately need another WIFi pod. When can I expect to be able to order another? I only get signal in half of my house it is driving me crazy. Why has your wifi became so unreliable? I will be taking my business to BT as soon as I can

  • ScientistExiled Exiled Scientist (@ScientistExiled) reported

    @virginmedia Just informed them the issue and they told me that they are not able to give me time to solve this problem

  • AdilRana87 Rana Adil 💯FB💕 (@AdilRana87) reported

    @virginmedia Support Team created a new contract for new extended time till 2023 instead of making corrections... such a useless organisation 🤐🤐

  • RussTaylor83 Russ Taylor (@RussTaylor83) reported

    @virginmedia Service essentially non existent/unworkable all evening. Bill reduction perhaps?

  • StripeyMiata Jonathan McCormack (@StripeyMiata) reported

    @virginmedia I am trying to login into my credit agreement details for my mobile phone but getting an error with no link I can see to reset.

  • TerryUrbanczyk Terry Urbanczyk (@TerryUrbanczyk) reported

    Hey @virginmedia as it appears that new customers get more for paying less, how long do I need to leave for before I can be a 'new' customer again? 50 quid just to swap a TV box is rediculous, when new customers get it for free. Been with you for over a decade.
