    @virginmedia you sent the wrong engineer team to fix our severed cable yesterday and the team today didn't turn up!! Day 4 without connection tomorrow and your customer services just hung up on me! What is going on?

  • Jessybell1988 Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia We tried the chat option and after going through security questions got redirected to another department which was then closed and the chat ended 😡 I have sent an email complaint on your website. Appalling service and communication from day one.

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia So fed up of the lousy WiFi. Can’t join the network even though the correct password is used.

    @virginmedia could you please tell me how to activate WiFi calling on Sony Xperia 5 ii my wife has it I can see how to do it on O2 network but option not available on virgin handset?

  • Jessybell1988 Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I hope so. The extremely patronising and rude person I spoke to yesterday in an abroad call centre told me there was no complaints department and he couldn’t do anything at all until I paid the bill.

  • reddevil1975 Leanne Everest 🙏❤ 🌈 🦄 (@reddevil1975) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Thank you so much, I spoke on the phone a problem has been located was told it may take up to 4 hrs or less to fix it. Unfortunately it's not looking good as it's over 4 hrs now and still flashing green.

  • Jessybell1988 Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I have literally had enough of your appalling service!! I’ve been sent a text to call you on 0800 052 2170 and there’s no option to even speak to a human?! I refuse to spend another hour on the phone trying to sort my account! Can you please direct me to an human?

  • sioden Sioned Wyn 💛 (@sioden) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    You @virginmedia have the ABSOLUTE WORST telephone system I have ever wncountered. I’m trying to sort out an alleged unpaid bill (it bloody well isn’t an unpaid bill btw it’s incompetence on your behalf meaning I got billed well AFTER cancelling back in March 2020)

  • dobbo79 sarah dobson (@dobbo79) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia are genuinely the worst broadband service, I've been left with no Internet or TV service since 2pm with no update to when it'll be back 🥴

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Any good reason why the outstanding @CNN news is being withdrawn from the cable service. Very, very disappointing. I am sure that I am not alone. #News #Media

  • KerryMordey Kerry Mordey (@KerryMordey) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    .@virginmedia we have had NO service for 2 days & our IT provider says it’s because construction workers have cut through your lines. Is this correct & if so, when do you anticipate this will be rectified please?

  • Jessybell1988 Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I’ve called 08454541111 several times and can’t get through to anyone in a UK call centre who can help. Please can I have a direct number for a UK call centre for complaints or cancellation department immediately? This has been going on months! I am very stressed and very annoyed

  • reddevil1975 Leanne Everest 🙏❤ 🌈 🦄 (@reddevil1975) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Hi I have had no broadband for the past few hours. Just wondering if there's an outage issue regarding cf63 postcode. Thanks in advance x

  • caialed cai 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@caialed) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia why am I paying £45 a month for my internet to constantly be down

  • djleekee Lee Smith/DJ Leekee (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I think it was more a BBC source issue rather than VM wide. The lip sync is just every so slightly out but seemed very put on strictly last night

  • itsallfudge jason fudge (@itsallfudge) reported

    @virginmedia what's going on. Internet intermittently dropping out on both wired and wireless connections. 2 kids homeschooling 2 parents wfh. Customer services impossible to get hold of

  • theMrsH89 Lou💫 (@theMrsH89) reported

    Since upgrading to the best internet on @virginmedia the internet connection has been appalling!! Just cut out on my 9 year old’s zoom lesson with an author on world book day!! Why should I pay £6.99 for a booster when I’m paying for apparently the best!

  • brightsitedes Andy | Brighton Website Design (@brightsitedes) reported

    @virginmedia I've seen you advising people to call with issues. When I call, it advises going online if you have issues? I've got intermittent quality on my broadband. I've tested online and reset. Is it possible to request a Hub 4?

  • DaveThompsonUK 𝙳𝚊𝚟𝚒𝚍 𝚃𝚑𝚘𝚖𝚙𝚜𝚘𝚗 (@DaveThompsonUK) reported

    @virginmedia New customer, online order 'cancelled' & placed manually by telesales operator (commission??), delivery now postponed by 3 weeks. New details wrong (extra charges) - no one cares or listens - can't speak to anyone! Poor customer service - having second thoughts!

  • AdamSThompson92 Adam Thompson (@AdamSThompson92) reported

    @virginmedia Says everything is fine but works like crap.

  • bertsdem Bertie de Margary (@bertsdem) reported

    @virginmedia I have the 200M fibre package, and my internet is consistently too slow for video calling, and often cuts out altogether. ontop of that my bill has increased to £89 which I did not agree to. Can someone speak to me about this?

  • alper1990 Alper Ahmet (@alper1990) reported

    @virginmedia @Hpsaucy515 Please catch up with your tech team @virginmedia they are saying there is a known issue with Apple and Virgin. Not sure if this is even true, but customer service taking 48 hours to call back and not able to resolve anything.

  • josephflavell Joe (@josephflavell) reported

    @virginmedia why is my internet not working you nonces

  • TheFifthDoctor Brian (@TheFifthDoctor) reported

    @virginmedia Nothing on service status AC, we’ve had a multitude of broadband problems for a whole year now (obviously all the more crucial when you have home schooling and working from home). Getting constant disconnects and slow speeds even after a hub reset

  • FilmdustLtd Filmdust Ltd (@FilmdustLtd) reported

    @virginmedia To be fair it’s a fairly consistent issue daily, with intermittent drop outs. By the time we have made contact with customer services it’s back on. This does seriously hamper our career progress.
