    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?

  • MsWhippet1
    Trudi Foster (@MsWhippet1) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @virginmedia I was told to wait in this morning between 8am - 12pm for an engineer to fix my broadband. It's now 2pm and no sign of an engineer. I was told I'd be charged £25 if I missed the appointment. I think I should charge you for having to hang around for 6 hours waiting.

  • 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.

    @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

    Imagine my shock that @virginmedia is down AGAIN. Please fix it

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

    @virginmedia It doesn't. No changes made. I had major problems setting this up, it went through someone in your complaints department and they had to do something manual to set the package I was on up. Clearly, even they are incapable. I've had TV for a few months, then it's just gone off.

    Internet not working, virgin media service status page not working @virginmedia shall I assume it's not fricking working and it might be repaired this century

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

    @virginmedia A laughable statement in all honesty you're known for terrible service, demonstrated by the line "Package changes". Who said package changes? I have a TV package, I signed up for, have a contract for and have been using since June. It's disappeared your end, I have the docs.

    @virginmedia hello I’ve supposedly been transferred to the Customer Relations messaging team on WhatsApp but have been waiting since 2pm yesterday for an agent to get back to me, how much longer can I be expected to wait? Thanks

    Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I did that this morning & the person said they were in complaints department..he said I needed to speak to retentions & a manager would call. He raised a complaint Ref:C160622488. Got a call this afternoon where the manager of customer services said there was nothing he could do.

    hey @virginmedia I have a contract that says my price is set to Jan 2023 and I negotiated the deal with customer retention as not the account holder bit authorised to talk on behalf of the account holder and now I've got customer services flat out lying toe on WhatsApp (1)

    Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Now I have a problem with the DNS not working. Called 150 and ended up with a text with a link to where I started. Really, really frustrating. Please help.

  • j_bettany
    Jacob (@j_bettany) reported from Clevedon, England

    So many scammers calling from '@VirginMedia Technical Support' at the moment. 5 in 24 hours. I've taken to suggesting they might think about getting a different job but heartbreaking to get the response, 'can you give me one?' It's basically #organisedcrime built on #poverty

    @andyburnham Just keep issuing massive fines to these companies like you did with Virgin Media until these companies make it much less complicated to cancel their subscriptions.

    Virgin Media Update: Engineer turned up (my husband missed his call) and said I shouldn’t be here… outage on Sky’s end apparently. Let’s hope it’s fixed for Saturday 🤞🏻

  • Leftdoubleclick
    Ruth Whalley (@Leftdoubleclick) reported

    @virginmedia My iron tripped out. We got everything up and running again, but no internet, no landline, no fire to, no sound bar.we rang you for help. You said you would send an engineer at around 7pm this evening. This is very poor service.

  • FromTinyPennies
    TJ Hughes (@FromTinyPennies) reported

    My VirginMedia contract is ending soon (thank goodness), but a couple of weeks ago they contacted me to tell me that my box was outdated and could cause issues with recordings. All of a sudden, the issues that are causing me to cancel, have ramped up. Can't play recordings now.

    paul d (@pauldewolfe) reported

    @virginmedia I’m now speaking to your web team, who have found a better offer that your renewal team couldn’t. It’s too late now, though, as I want to cancel.

    @virginmedia your routers really are ****!!! I’m sat in garden, in direct line of maybe 8 metres from router and can’t get wifi signal. If only you valued quality of service !

    Come on, why does my TV and internet keep going off @virginmedia ? Can't get through the 1st episode of reacher without the whole thing going off....why does your service consistently get worse each year?
