  MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported 4 minutes ago from St. Julians, Wales

  @virginmedia On hard wired, approx 250mbs out of 350mbs. It’s a hub 4 with new connectors added and bits of cable, but again I’m having to call support to see why our intellipods aren’t working.

  @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

  hey @virginmedia I have a contract that says my price is set to Jan 2023 and I negotiated the deal with customer retention as not the account holder bit authorised to talk on behalf of the account holder and now I've got customer services flat out lying toe on WhatsApp (1)

  Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported 28 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @virginmedia Yep. Just been on hold for 1 hour 3 minutes and as soon as I got through it cut off. Sent multiple follow up WhatsApp messages and still nothing. You really need to sort out your customer service because I’ve been waiting 3 weeks just to get back into contact with someone!!!

  @virginmedia But im asking what would be different to the other times where ive just wasted hours of my day for nothing to change? We have called numerous times only to be told there is no problem or to reset. No other assitance is ever offered

• 
  Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported 34 minutes ago from Portishead and North Weston, England

  @virginmedia I have got this sorted with your team now. Helpful person. But I suggest changing your auto system to give callers an idea of wait time. Better customer service.

  Jacob (@j_bettany) reported 35 minutes ago from Clevedon, England

  So many scammers calling from '@VirginMedia Technical Support' at the moment. 5 in 24 hours. I've taken to suggesting they might think about getting a different job but heartbreaking to get the response, 'can you give me one?' It's basically #organisedcrime built on #poverty

  Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported 40 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @virginmedia I did that this morning & the person said they were in complaints department..he said I needed to speak to retentions & a manager would call. He raised a complaint Ref:C160622488. Got a call this afternoon where the manager of customer services said there was nothing he could do.

  Properly for the best part of a yr doesn't seem a problem to yourselves but your quite happy to take out monthly payment for a service we're paying for but you're not providing & seem to be in no hurry to provide it. Disgraceful service @virginmedia

• 
  Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported 41 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @virginmedia I do not want to be with you any more because you are doing my head in!!!! You have turned from being a very good company with good service to being the most disgusting people I have ever had the displeasure of coming in contact with!!!

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

  Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported 48 minutes ago 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?

• 
  Carol Gladwin (@carolgladwin) reported 49 minutes ago from Nailsea, England

  @virginmedia Had real problems with the service web page.. took an age to load and then chucked me back a page! Our service is back now.

  Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported 52 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @virginmedia My original package wasn't due to end until July 22. I've spoken to every department you have, over & over again...I go over the same old explanation with your people every single time & still, nobody in your company will help...I've spoken to over 3 managers & still nothing!!

• 
  Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported 54 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @virginmedia can you tell me what has gone wrong with your company!?!? I have been with you for years, without complaint but, since Dec 21, you change my contract, without my say-so & despite constant calls for 6 months, still nobody will take responsibility & sort it out!!! 😠😠

• 
  Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported 56 minutes ago from Cardiff, Wales

  @virginmedia I'm now waiting on a call from the retentions department (I missed one earlier)! I know exactly what they will say because I've spoken to them on a number of occasions...they will offer me a new contract & raise a complaint about the messing about you've given me!!!

  Sean Pearson (@soapyrct) reported 10 minutes ago

  @mobily_uk @virginmedia Because they expect lots of folk to either not realise or just pay anyway, its also why they make it so difficult to call. Funny you can join and change everything on line except cancel! Virgin are THE worst company for service.

• 
  Sean Milroy (@Seanster1984) reported 11 minutes ago

  @virginmedia why are you telling people to get a booster after upgrading to 360 when a box is connected to its router through Ethernet cable? Ethernet connection is better. Wi-Fi is a luxury. People are paying over odds for service but you want them to pay more? Get a grip!!

• 
  V (@vp_matic) reported 13 minutes ago

  @virginmedia Broadband down since 7am this morning. With a secluded repair date of 2days from now! ‘Register of loss of service In Order to receive compensation’ impossible to locate on your app or any of your web pages? Yet a Price increase this month! Absolutely Shameful!!

• 
  MykeJD (@MykeJD1) reported 14 minutes ago

  Hi @virginmedia I'm an existing customer, we just paid a 5ver to upgrade and add the kids TV package. I did this yesterday around 5pm, I have a confirmation email but it doesn't tell me when it becomes active? So far 24 hours later and a full TV reset they still aren't working.

  Gerbil (@f4ckiam) reported 15 minutes ago

  I feel like I'm on a complaining streak but here goes: This one is for @O2 I have been a loyal customer since the switch-over of Virgin Media customers. I barely use data. So, I've been more than happy with my £9.73/month tariff. The data is unimportant. Unlimited calls/texts is

  Paul Parkin (@kingoftheshed) reported 17 minutes ago

  @virginmedia What? On and off for the past 8 days? It just went down again 5 minutes ago. Fix it and compensate me let me leave.

• 
  David Whiteside (@yardley_canary) reported 23 minutes ago

  @virginmedia are in top 3 worst companies I've ever had the misfortune to deal with. They may even be top. Rude, expensive, evasive, and unreliable. What started as a simple investigation into switching for cost reasons has now made me resolute in my decision! Disgusting!

  @virginmedia your customer service is abysmal- sort it out

  @lelly401 @virginmedia @NetflixUK No i had it separately. Then my virgin bill had a netflix subscription on it. I asked them to cancel as I hadn't taken netflix with them. Now my regular subscription has been downgraded to standard!!!
