    @virginmedia as a former TV customer, now just broadband, I want to reconnect a TV package. I already have 3 boxes in my house can they not be just reconnected instead of sending my out a box?

  • thelee_x_w
    lee williams (@thelee_x_w) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Word of warning avoid @virginmedia 4 wifi like the plague. I rarely get even 20% of advertised speeds & the CS team are next 2 useless. Paying 4 daily disappointment that upsets the kids. Will never go back 2 them ever. Worst service I ave ever received @EE was so much better

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

    Another day in the life of a @virginmedia customer. TV showing fault. Ran online diagnostics, didn't fix. Site says to call. Call. Go through menu, TV, fault... sends me a text with a link to online diagnostics, says "thanks for calling" and hangs up. Worst. Company. Ever.

    I feel awful for the @virginmedia social media staff. Bosses - invest more in infrastructure to genuinely improve services and stop these poor people being treated like ****. Also, pay your taxes.

  • SewScandalous
    Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, Wales

    Oh, maybe not. Even though the website says no problem, there is a problem with the broadband round here 🙄 @virginmedia

  • gillih
    Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Yes. Have done this and spoken with your ‘fault management service’ who cut me off when I was explaining the problem.

    @virginmedia hi, over a month ago now I was told that I would receive a cheque through the post with my refund! A refund I should of got 3months ago! Virgin Media's customer service is the worst I've ever experienced!

  • BackOnTrack__
    Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia still waiting since 7.30 am for the engineer to come to sort out the problems we are having, he’s 25 minutes to get here ( we were given 7.30-13 slot) still no tv since Thursday!

  • BackOnTrack__
    Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia you SUCK, you have NO CUSTOMER service at all. Employ more staff and start to provide a service we are paying for RUBBISH SERVICE perhaps we need to move to @skytv !!!!

  • FindlayEquality
    Graham Findlay FRSA 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺 (@FindlayEquality) reported from Cathays, Wales

    @rwilliams1947 @virginmedia It seems VM are also messing up landlines too. They now need to connect the phone cable to the Wi-Fi hub . Which means lots of trouble in my house and many other properties across the UK. And good luck with trying to discontinue their contract - they make it very difficult.

    @virginmedia @O2 Talking to a cmsr service rep at the mo, absolutely crap!!

  • lou_dare

    @virginmedia we are having issues NP19 we’ve rebooted and checked wires.. been on and off now for few weeks. What’s going on please ??

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

    @virginmedia @Dionne96310374 We weren’t offered that when ours went down

  • SATempest
    Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yep. Just been on hold for 1 hour 3 minutes and as soon as I got through it cut off. Sent multiple follow up WhatsApp messages and still nothing. You really need to sort out your customer service because I’ve been waiting 3 weeks just to get back into contact with someone!!!

  • 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

  • 3_monk
    Monkenstien. (@3_monk) reported from Beechwood, Wales

    @virginmedia I get your bills, that is how I realised as a loyal customer I am paying £40 plus a month for Internet access only. Fortunately for me and not for you BT Openreach have been installing fibre to home allowing me greater negotiating power as tou have no respect for loyalty.

    @virginmedia internet has gone down and the website is also down so can’t check if it is an issue in the area or not

  • SATempest
    Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @OldSparky6 @virginmedia I’m never going with them again. Genuinely don’t know how they are still a company that is allowed to operate when the customer service is this bad!

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

    @virginmedia On hard wired, approx 250mbs out of 350mbs. It’s a hub 4 with new connectors added and bits of cable, but again I’m having to call support to see why our intellipods aren’t working.

    Anyone's Virgin TV STILL not working after 2 days bet we dont get refunded so im paying £140 a month for a **** service @virginmedia

  • ScottishAshley
    Ashley (@ScottishAshley) reported

    @virginmedia An engineer was booked and then the visit was cancelled by yourselves as it’s a wider issue apparently. So it’s an issue you should already be aware of as it’s widespread according to media

  • shadeyshaw
    Shady Shaw (@shadeyshaw) reported

    @Benleo I think these big comp that operate in the uk should be banned from using overseas call centres,I left virgin because their customer service was atrocious joined youfibre only to find out they have been bought out by virgin media and now I’m sure they use the same call centres.

  • Laura92492442
    Laura (@Laura92492442) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Try @NatWindscreens they would give Virgin a run for their money. Tried calling 5 times - different person each time- 5 calls today, 3 emails and voice mail. They have taken my money, realised that window screen needs calibration and offered date in TWO weeks. 3rd world service

  • katesonly
    We need Restore Britain (@katesonly) reported

    @Benleo @virginmedia Avoid like the plague, if you move house before your contract is up & they don’t supply their service in your new area, they expect you to keep paying for receiving nothing, often 18 - 24 month contracts & they don’t make this clear. Sketchy service with sketchy coverage

  • conning_john
    John Conning (@conning_john) reported

    @Benleo @CallmeRight1 @virginmedia I had heard they have a dreadful reputation for customer service or lack of it…..

    @Benleo @Scott7507064635 @virginmedia I once had Virgin Media broadband (because there was no alternative in the area) and I had the same awful experience with them. I hate them and would never use them again.

    @Benleo @virginmedia Zen Internet. Silly fast, 100% reliable, AND, English people that speak English... if you ever have a problem that is.
