  • andylance1977 andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia why does it seem impossible to sort my TV and WiFi out? My partner has been phoning up on and off for a year or more about poor signal, not being able to use catch and apps and general poor service. Just get fobbed off.] Is this how you treat all customers?

  • gazthebluebird1 Gareth Jones (@gazthebluebird1) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I am unable to sign into my online account and trying to speak to anyone at your company its like trying to make contact with the moon, can you open up a DM conversation to help please?

  • andylance1977 andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia It works intermittently. This has been discussed over a series of phone calls through 12 months. A booster box has been sent too and its still poor. We're paying for a service we can't use when we want to. The TV box is next to the WiFi box downstairs & is still poor.

  • AcuharmonyUK Acuharmony-UK (@AcuharmonyUK) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia No reported issues. Tried the fixes before, and so did virgin chat. Not just my handset, other people are having the same problem. Am I going to have to change networks, is that what you're saying? Due to the change to O2?

  • cherylockerby cheryl (@cherylockerby) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia I have a TiVo box but my tv screen keeps pixelating. It is not restricted to 1 channel. I have turned the box off at the plug but it has made no difference. Can you help?

  • gazthebluebird1 Gareth Jones (@gazthebluebird1) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia That's not going to help me reset my password.

  • Carl_E88 This is Carl🏳️‍🌈😺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🍕 (@Carl_E88) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia any chance of supporting existing customers, currently paying £32 a month but your offering new customers 25 a month. Helpline said nothing I can do as existing customer.

  • 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

  • markccfc70 Mark Smith (@markccfc70) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Been with @virginmedia back as far as old NTL days. Downgrade our package for the first time ever to keep costs down, and the Internet must have crashed at least 8 times today, the day after we changed. Absolutely useless, on the phone tomorrow to cancel this **** completely.

  • 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.

  • NobbyD27 Rob Downer (@NobbyD27) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @syeporter180 @virginmedia I’m on virgin and it’s not that great Sye, I was going to sky before I renewed but had the same problem as you because I’d of had to wait months for BT to install a cable so just stuck to the devil I know in the end

  • MaartenSleeckx MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia Clearly not as the issue keeps coming back after multiple engineer fixes outside AND in my home. You're lying through your teeth and leaving me in the dark literally. Stop hiding behind "standard business" replies, be human and help me.

  • stuart_chc Stuart Ropke (@stuart_chc) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @eggynewydd @virginmedia Dismally slow. Yes.

  • GarethThwaite Gareth Thwaite (@GarethThwaite) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia can you please just admit you value new customers over 20yrs plus ones? @BT want to help a family out?

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

    @virginmedia I dunno mate, that's why I tried to call you lot. You can't help, so don't worry about it. Another weekend without TV and internet, waiting for your engineer to turn up. Another complaint. Another refund.

  • MaartenSleeckx MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia Screw you. Only me dying bothers anyone, literally anyone, it's always impossible to help me until people understand that I will kill myself. You're no better than them. See you in 2 weeks or not "AB".

  • amandaroberts10 amanda roberts (@amandaroberts10) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia is there a problem in the CF23 area ... no WiFi??

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

    @virginmedia another day another WiFi outage. This really is the worst WiFi I've ever had. Legally as you are not providing the service as promised am I allowed to cancel the contract ? @CitizensAdvice

  • macauc01 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

  • NobbyD27 Rob Downer (@NobbyD27) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @syeporter180 @virginmedia Cancel the contract and go to Sky

  • IckiePooh ImmortalBeloved (@IckiePooh) reported

    @virginmedia Was on hold for 47 minutes then the call disconnected. Does the text service still work? If so could you please remind me of the number?

  • ns_iiiii ns (@ns_iiiii) reported

    @virginmedia why is your call centre in the Philippines so bad!?!? They keep cutting the call off when they cannot answer a question!!!

  • horiastefan Horia Stefan (@horiastefan) reported

    @virginmedia I am trying to speak but when I call I can’t even make it to the waiting line as it says you’re “busy” and to try again later and WhatsApp just went dead. Is it normal to waste hours to just get in touch with a service provider?

  • Lifeits3lf Zoey Mermigki♦️ (@Lifeits3lf) reported

    @virginmedia Nop, she said she can create complains and deal with them but She didn’t see any problems from her end and there was nothing else to do. But I’ll be sending a letter to the complains department. Also virgin refused to let @resolvercouk negotiate this issue.

  • PMartin1888 Paul Andrew martin (@PMartin1888) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia Had to many difficult moments, with customer service, plus the Internet drops out every day without fail. Im cancelling at first opportunity

  • PETEBREEZY Pete Breezy (@PETEBREEZY) reported

    @virginmedia Already been told on here that you can't help me, and I have to wait

  • HarikaMarlow Harika Marlow (@HarikaMarlow) reported

    The reason I never sort out issues with my services and continue paying @virginmedia is because I can NEVER get through on the phone. Nothing has changed since last year…. No idea on estimated wait time or how many calls in front….😓

  • juedan3 Julie (@juedan3) reported

    @virginmedia I'll not be cutting it...I'll be disconnecting it .where the cable is connected at my wall....I've been in touch and had to send an email...when I rang your helpline the systems were down...I've given my details to some advisor by email

  • Arthur_James999 Accidental Tourist (@Arthur_James999) reported

    @virginmedia Not good enough. Formal complaint being lodged and DD cancelled March 1st 2022.
