Moseph Mellars (@stfcjoner1986) reported from Cardiff, WalesHi @virginmedia can I please have some assistance? Thw WiFi keeps dropping out since yesterday. I am WFH so this is causing lots of problems. I have contacted you via live chat but I am getting no reply after answering sec questions. I am based in Splott, Cardiff.
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Can I just ask why it is that you can respond within minutes on social media (where the public can see your actions) but then in private you are ignoring your customers and taking three weeks to deal with issues? If you have agents manning twitter why can’t you pick up the phone?
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia I phoned THREE weeks ago to cancel our contact, there was a dispute over a cancellation fee. A manager was supposed to call me back, I’ve rang 5 times since to check as heard nothing- each time was told ‘within 48hrs’. Move out next Friday, what am I supposed to do????
-

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.
