-
squeaks (@dodo1960) reported from Cardiff, WalesIt would be easier to get blood out of a stone that get password help from #virginmedia
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia But the team is impossible to contact!!! And when you do get in contact it’s always someone else’s problem, ‘oh I’ll just pass you onto my colleague’ etc. I’ve WhatsApped the help number too and been told it’s a long wait and told I can ‘get on with [my] day’ - absolute joke.
-
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐫 (@3EyedTiger) reported from Caerphilly, Wales@virginmedia Cheers, still down this morning - tried another 2 router reboots at 6am and 7:30 respectively but was no better, solid red light, etc.. Will try again at midday
-
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 !!!!
-
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Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Any good reason why the outstanding @CNN news is being withdrawn from the cable service.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
-
Ed Morris (@edmorrispt) reported from Cardiff, WalesWifi recommendations in Cardiff? @virginmedia is the absolute worst thing on earth & ruins working from home
-
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.
-
Dr Chris Inglis (@ChrisSwinglis) reported from Penarth, Wales@GillibrandPeter Virgin Media are - by a significant margin - the worst company I've ever had the displeasure of having to deal with. I literally don't think there's anything in the world that could ever convince me to go back to them.
-
Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia It doesn't. No changes made. I had major problems setting this up, it went through someone in your complaints department and they had to do something manual to set the package I was on up. Clearly, even they are incapable. I've had TV for a few months, then it's just gone off.
-
Paul Burnell (@Paulyb65) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia really frustrating morning. First day back from the holidays, stacks to do and internet has been down from minute I signed in!! Really need this back up ASAP!!
-
Brody (@brodyanderson_) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Yeah have already called. Reports no service issues in my location despite online reporting intermittent issues this morning. Ability to book an engineer has disappeared. Help appreciated - now over 24h without connection
-
Lee Smith 🌻 (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia The channel 4 one seems a bit flakey too. The opening sting on each service plays and then some ads but on both the programmes never play so I give up and use the smart TV apps instead. I've assumed it's a bandwidth issue but I suppose if ads are playing the progs should too.
-
Christina Macaulay (@macauc01) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia terrible service. You booked to install my equipment on 13th Dec 2023. Wrong year and no one will sort it out. Your fault entirely
-
Samantha (@Samanth82113398) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Hi can someone help me I'm trying to log in to my account but keeps saying there's a problem at your end
-
Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia A laughable statement in all honesty you're known for terrible service, demonstrated by the line "Package changes". Who said package changes? I have a TV package, I signed up for, have a contract for and have been using since June. It's disappeared your end, I have the docs.
-
Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Your company is awful. I’ve called today waited 10min to the worst hold music only to be cut off. Call back to be told your closed now then state you are open between 9-6. Why are you deliberately obstructive?
-
Trudi Foster (@MsWhippet1) reported from St. Julians, Wales@virginmedia I was told to wait in this morning between 8am - 12pm for an engineer to fix my broadband. It's now 2pm and no sign of an engineer. I was told I'd be charged £25 if I missed the appointment. I think I should charge you for having to hang around for 6 hours waiting.
-
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!
-
Paul Ivins 🏴 ♎ 💙🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️ 🇪🇺 (@ivinsp) reported from Cardiff, Wales@richie_rich77 @virginmedia If it's just a WiFi issue and your LAN connection is OK maybe try a mesh system. Works great here with BT
-

-
Dave Pearce (@DavePea15343212) reported@virginmedia Our teams are already working on the ongoing issue, and they’ve advised that they need a bit more time to get everything fixed. The current estimated time to resolve this is around 24 hours. Is that the time frame for fix?
-
Santhosh🌏🕊️ (@SubraSanthosh) reported@virginmedia Rubbish. No phone or internet last 5 days. Your team at CSD don’t even care, and was told if I want to switch I can switch providers or wait till VM fixes the issue, and that’s exactly what I did. Worst network provider by far.
-
Kashmira Irani (@haircut52) reported@virginmedia your customer service is atrocious. Tried to get an engineer visit as not getting barely any channels. On the phone now for 30 minutes This problem has happened before . Only an engineer can fix this. HELP
