  • TheMMEvent Mike Anthony Moreno (@TheMMEvent) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • 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

  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    Good luck @virginmedia must have the worst post sales customer service in the known universe

  • 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

  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    @Spudsghost @EE The @virginmedia crapness is to do with their router I think it’s useless and can’t send the WiFi through paper thin plasterboard or handle the TV signal

  • lfmortgages lisafletchermortgages (@lfmortgages) reported from Barry, Wales

    Terrible service from #virginmedia for 3 months+. Spent hours on the phone for the goalposts to be moved again. Apparently if you are residential customer intermittent service in a 24 hour period is acceptable, even if that is 10 minutes Bye bye 🖐🏻🖐🏻#bonvoyage

  • leohawkins123 Leigh Hawkins (@leohawkins123) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Once again still on hold from @virginmedia 24 mins takes the piss, to make a complaint the fact we have 1 of there team phone us 4 times a day for the same thing over a week,come on @virginmedia I know you need to promote your packages but 4 times a day for a week. Pls answer 📞.

  • ItsLau_xo 🦋Laura 🦋 (@ItsLau_xo) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    So we pay over £100 a month for full @virginmedia package and fastest Internet going, but is it so so bad. It keeps cutting out all the time or going slow.

    @virginmedia Internet is terrible lately. Good job I have mobile data otherwise I’d be living in the dark ages.

  • niamunna1 Nige (@niamunna1) reported from Newport, Wales

  • Phoebe98935634 Phoebe (@Phoebe98935634) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia the state of your customer service is appalling. Your sales team pick up within 2 seconds but can’t get hold of ANYONE in troubleshoot for 2 days #Disappointednotangry #richardwhatyoudoing

  • katierobertson0 KatieRobertson (@katierobertson0) reported from Barry, Wales

  • ArtisticCollect Art Connoisseur (@ArtisticCollect) reported

    @virginmedia How can I register my broadband being down? The service checker doesn’t work properly and the online chat doesn’t work either. Messages for WhatsApp just don’t come through. Can I chat to someone here? Thanks :)

  • WConnelly8 William Connelly (@WConnelly8) reported

    @virginmedia How hard is it to talk to someone from virgin media? Absolute joke !!! Happy to take money every month for an awful service

  • sarahh112 Sarah Paul (@sarahh112) reported

    @virginmedia Well that was a waste of 30 minutes of my life I will never get back. Sat in a queue and then told they will have to investigate and get back to me. I’m still no closer to finding out!

  • 31tobe Tobe (@31tobe) reported

    @virginmedia Only 40 minutes on hold again so far without speaking to someone £153 a month for a **** internet and tv package I’ve already cancelled once

  • FaintlightWolf Manuele R. Pennisi (@FaintlightWolf) reported

    @virginmedia day 6 without no services. When is this going to end? I need a resolution now

  • kimturner70 Kimberley Turner (@kimturner70) reported

    @virginmedia The agent said she couldn’t raise a complaint as her system wouldn’t let her bypass selling her equipment I don’t need. This is fraudulent activity by @virginmedia She point blank refused to escalate my call. Totally unacceptable

    @virginmedia @njay691 Why call me every day to offer early upgrade yet want me to pay off rest of contract. When I say you are harassing me, your staff hang up
