  • WynfordE Wyn Emanuel (@WynfordE) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I have done everything you have asked me to do regarding my security issue. I have responded to your texts as requested. But you never respond as you say you will. Meanwhile, more letters and texts arrive. It is futile.

  • PhilippaWillia1 Philippa Williams (@PhilippaWillia1) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia To be honest the telephone support from call centre was very poor. No answer to my request about customers who are vulnerable and who else I could talk to. Just “wait another 72 hours” .....It was email, Facebook and twitter messages that helped

  • SAULYD_ saul (@SAULYD_) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia I cannot stress how ****** bollox your internet is. Honestly 1G would be 10x faster than your ****

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia Thanks! But it’s really not just me - there must be others - at this difficult time - who will be having to pay more for just the same service!

  • PerformandGrow Sally Evans (@PerformandGrow) reported from Barry, Wales

  • DebbieWharton Debbie Wharton (@DebbieWharton) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @WillHayCardiff @virginmedia Same here, it’s awful. We can’t get hold of them and the website complaints section isn’t much help either!

  • cherylockerby cheryl (@cherylockerby) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia I have had a letter to say my sons email address is sending spam emails. I have changed my password just in case but am having an issue with certain emails being undelivered. Have you put a spam indicator on my emails. This is causing me big problems

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @Virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph. Despite trying to get information - after 24 hours, I have got nowhere trying to discover why my bill of £34 will rise to £64 next month! No extra service or work required!

  • TaffieBaggie Chris A. Stott aka Taffie Baggie (@TaffieBaggie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @EmmaKlieve @virginmedia Heard there was an outage today from my complaints handler as I'm 6 weeks into investigations in why my hub still failing.

  • robkbangor Rob Knowles (@robkbangor) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia we would like to cancel our contract with you but your website is sending us round in circles and it’s impossible to get through to your call centre. You’re taking advantage of the lockdown to rip people off!! 🤬

  • PentwynP Pentwyn & Llanedeyrn Pickers (@PentwynP) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia @WeAreOpenreach @cardiffcouncil @LornaLwyl @Keep_Wales_Tidy I believe this particular one is openreach, just highlighting this is an issue with both companies. One volunteer has previously written to virgin media posting spent wiring with the letters, but this issue it seems is not being addressed adequately across the whole of the UK

  • JasperDommett 𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐃𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐭 (@JasperDommett) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • LorCanDoIt Lorcan Elliott (@LorCanDoIt) reported

    Anyone else had issues with league perma stuttering recently? My discord is fine but every league game it’s stuttering every 20s for like 1-2s. Probably virgin media but idk if there’s a fix?

  • RCPersse Rebecca Persse (@RCPersse) reported

    @virginmedia Person 1 (with power of attorney). Makes several attempts to contact you via phone to cancel a contract. No luck. Tries online.....can't get anywhere without a password... ..which as you would advise shouldn't be shared.....and then writes to you.

  • NormskinutsMark Mark (@NormskinutsMark) reported

    @virginmedia about 3 months ago we had problems with broadband. You said you would monitor it for a month. What were the findings. It’s still ****.

  • TKMarx carl (@TKMarx) reported

    @virginmedia And don’t waste my time further by recommending that terrible number ending in loads of ones. And while you are at it give me the e-mail for your head office so I can tell them how rubbish their service is. Someone there must be responsible for the useless system you are part of.

  • bbrookes84 Benjamin Brookes (@bbrookes84) reported

    @tarajadeadamsxx @virginmedia Agreed there's no way I can be off work for that long either. Also the service status pages still tell us nothing!

  • AQueerPanda Zinda, his face black, his eyes red🖖🏻 (@AQueerPanda) reported

    Virgin Media has caused me a meltdown every time I try phoning their customer services, but I've never had faster internet, and they just boosted it by 25% so now I can download at 34MB/s, which is pretty ******' tasty given how indecisive I am about what games to install :P

  • mrslatics Norma Sherratt (@mrslatics) reported

    @zooloo2008 @virginmedia I'm sick of complaining about this too. They sent an engineer to fix the problem during a weekday when no games on!!!!

  • Khinjarsi_ Khinjarsi (@Khinjarsi_) reported

    @virginmedia received texts from you about a yodel delivery but no package and tracking postcode doesn't work. Nothing in my virgin account about orders, no way of checking yodel and yodel sent a feedback?

  • Nicky9588 Nicola Sutton (@Nicky9588) reported

    @virginmedia Earliest Friday! Nothing had been done until we rang again this afternoon. No-one has a clue what’s going on in your customer service dept it would seem

  • TomStan22 Ch4os_Th3ory (@TomStan22) reported

    @virginmedia Got off the phone about 12:30 this afternoon. Fairly certain it is the Hub that is the issue but obviously need an engineer to verify this. TV is working fine, on demand, catch up etc. Just the broadband issue.
