  • tibbo133no David Tibbs (@tibbo133no) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I trust I will be reimbursed something as a loyal customer due to your shocking coverage of the rugby on BT Sports tonight making it unwatchable with no appologies or answers

  • EmmaLouiseTho13 Emma 🌈 🖤 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺🎃 (@EmmaLouiseTho13) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @agmshankar @virginmedia Considering doing the same, they have increased the package price again this year (that's the second year in a row) and the network reliability seems to be getting increasingly worse in our area at least.

  • peterrobey Peter Robey (@peterrobey) reported from Risca, Wales

    @playzone1000 @virginmedia Had exactly the same experience! Has to be the worst customer service experience ever!

  • stfcjoner1986 Moe Mellars (@stfcjoner1986) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • wenglishpaul Paul Scanlon 🏃‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏃🎖 (@wenglishpaul) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Well after 20 years of being a loyal @skytv customer its time to leave. They have taken my custom for granted expecting me to accept poor customer service well I won't & I'm not. @skytv loss is very much @virginmedia gain.

  • tibbo133no David Tibbs (@tibbo133no) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia trying to watch the live rugby on bt sport is impossible and painful with all the flickering from the feed you are sending out, this has happened the whole of the first half with no appologies or rectifying the problem, any chance of sorting?

  • Chloe_coy_ Chloe coy (@Chloe_coy_) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia @Chloe_Co It’s an issue within the house apparently. The flat above had perfect internet. We have had nothing and no call back!!

    @virginmedia hi, just had an email saying that our bill it going to raise from £30 to £57.50 & that we have been signed upto an 18month contract! I never signed anything or have had any kind of letter to inform me of this. We have very little money, all on job seekers or furlough

  • HanneRuthHall Hannah Hall (@HanneRuthHall) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia quit harassing me to return your kit. It took 2 days on the phone post price hikes to cancel services now your customer contact options loop to nowhere. You haven't even sent a return kit or courier so ffs stop bombarding with texts & emails to send your router back!

  • Kukukichu Kukukichu (@Kukukichu) reported

    @virginmedia They have no idea why this was done. Told me it can be reconnected in 72 hours, probably longer due to new years day, so pointless really. Can you direct me to an external complaints service? I’ll be looking for full compensation for days were unable to work.

  • __bethan Bethan (@__bethan) reported

    @virginmedia So what's the best way to cancel the contract because I can't use the service after the 3rd Jan (I'm moving to a place where there's existing internet that I'm not responsible for) thanks

  • UsernameError4 UsernameError (@UsernameError4) reported

    @virginmedia I think my divorce was easier than leaving you guys. Absolutley shocking company, how you haven't been fined is beyond me. If we provided this service at the company I work for we'd have shut long ago.

  • Wxrdless_ T_ (@Wxrdless_) reported

    @virginmedia The Hub keeps disconnecting from all devices in the household. It’s been turned on and off, reset, checked the wiring and the issue still persists. Been like this for two weeks now
