  • rancid_insane rancid insane 🤪 (@rancid_insane) reported from Newport, Wales

    So @virginmedia sat an hour in help chat waiting for reply regarding my issue/query of my broadband After an hour I guess you wasn't interested in helping me out. To me shows a totally lack of respect to a loyal customer with full package 🤬 Could you provide a CS number

  • CharlBalcombe Charlie Balcombe (@CharlBalcombe) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Not sure who we’ve been speaking to for the last day. But they’ve been the most helpful member of staff we’ve had contact with over the last five months. Has not only helped me fix the problem, answered any questions, but is taking my formal complaint further for us.

  • Ratuse_ Sam / Ratuse 😈 (@Ratuse_) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    My internet has been down literally all night what’s going on @virginmedia

  • AChinnick90 Andrew Chinnick (@AChinnick90) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @RSpencer100 @virginmedia @SkyUK Absolutely awful @virginmedia. I’ll be following you to @SkyUK as soon as my contract ends!

  • morganlowry3 Morgan Lowry (@morganlowry3) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia Our tele has no signal, had problems with it for a few weeks. Some channels just have an error message of ‘no signal’ and others are pixelated so badly that you can’t see the programme at all 😩

  • staceyjhubbard Stacey J Hubbard 🐧 (@staceyjhubbard) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia It says there's no problems in my area, my hub has the power light on it but the WiFi light isn't on

  • K_J_Wheeler kevin wheeler (@K_J_Wheeler) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Credit where it is due, had outstanding customer service from @Screwfix @SkyUK and @virginmedia this weekend.

  • wingnut1927 Mark Letman (@wingnut1927) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Done all this and your automated telephone support even diagnosed a fault and restarted the router.

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@cymboi) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @virginmedia I’ve said this more than once before on here and I’ll say it again. VM broadband is crap!! Their Wi-fi is shi., keeps cutting out yet they promise it is better and stronger. Don’t believe it!! The old router was far better than this rubbish!!!

  • sumz88 Craig Summerfield (@sumz88) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Going through the standard procedure of virgin media putting my bill up by 50%, awful service trying to discuss options and refusing to log my complaint when I’ve asked more than once @virginmedia I’m sick to death of this genuinely..#virginmedia #awfulservice

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

    16min waiting for someone from virgin to answer the phone to have them hang up takes the piss so no I got to go all the way through the questions again to wait again come on virgin answer you phone @virginmedia

  • morganlowry3 Morgan Lowry (@morganlowry3) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

  • RhysThomas1991 Rhys 'Trev' Thomas (@RhysThomas1991) reported from Alway, Wales

    @virginmedia 20 minutes on hold and nobody picked up yet. All we want to do is cancel our broadband as you keep raising the price #jokers @richardbranson

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

    Still another 12 min and nothing time to cancel I think😡@virginmedia

  • lowri_mifsud Lowri mifsud (@lowri_mifsud) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Tearing my hair out with @virginmedia They make it impossible to leave! No way to do it online (Is this the only company in the world that won't let you cancel online? Then tells you it might take them an hour to answer the phone (once you've connected and paying for the call!)

  • TimSBourne Tim Bourne (@TimSBourne) reported

    @virginmedia Has since been fixed presumably by something done your end yesterday. I also asked about this in VM Community Forum. From replies it seems quite a few others had same problem - & also found it fixed around same time. Can someone in VM advise what the issue was & what fixed it?
