    @virginmedia Needs must 😁but would appreciate virgin sorting the problem asap

  • philmonkey Phil Rogers (@philmonkey) reported from Ponthir, Wales

    @virginmedia @DannyHackett Be careful with the fob offs Danny - if it’s a connection problem (not your in house WiFi) then Virgin, as with any other cable company, can see your connection status from the modem to their services via DOCSIS and also should be able to see logs too 😉

  • charliewong87 Charles (@charliewong87) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • GarethWHeating Gareth Williams (@GarethWHeating) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia I was told there was a problem with the cell that has now been rectified. There was nothing at all wrong with the phone but it cuts out all the time. Always has...

  • philmonkey Phil Rogers (@philmonkey) reported from Ponthir, Wales

    @virginmedia @DannyHackett Had a moment around a decade ago where they sent me through the song and dance of rebooting etc. So I cut it short, told them to look at the signal levels. They did. We agreed that it’s not localised to my property, they fixed. No pointless faffing.

  • BeckyyBuzz Becky...xx {TeEm} (@BeckyyBuzz) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia I have currently reset the family wifi box three times now and have no internet or wifi. I do not know any of the account details as it's all in my dads name but we have no service be would like the issue resolved if possible

  • mikeenea Michael Enea (@mikeenea) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @virginmedia down yet again. Last month, the broadband has gone to shite. Very frustrating. Seriously giving thought to switch supplier now (first time in 10 years).

  • bighumphs Steve Humphreys #FBPE (@bighumphs) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia more crap service - this time with your mobile network

  • philmonkey Phil Rogers (@philmonkey) reported from Ponthir, Wales

    @DannyHackett @virginmedia If they’re saying it’s an area fault maybe the signal to the box isn’t within the acceptable conditions so it has to reconnect often. Same problem in Dartford but fixed on their end after several calls...

  • EllenParker6 Ellen Parker (@EllenParker6) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia 4 month countdown to get rid of you your customer service is beyond rude. Your technical support is lacking in manners and availability. @SkyUK we are on our way back sorry for leaving biggest mistake ever. We may have saved £20 but not worth the shit service

  • LouisPMertens Louis Mertens (@LouisPMertens) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    1/2 My exp. with @VirginMedia has been a farce involving incorrect contract lengths, engineers insisting my package can't be installed bc customer service sold me a service that doesn't exist, phone calls from Virgin saying the engineers are wrong...

  • IDLLAP Ian Davies 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 🏳️‍🌈 #IDIC 🖖🏻 (@IDLLAP) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia after your poor installation at my brother's house, cable running across the hallway, you now want to charge him to put your mistake right. He shouldn't be charged for your engineer leaving a trip hazard

  • IAmMartJohn Mart Verallo John (@IAmMartJohn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I know I'm flogging a dead horse where with this customer service tweets. But I've spent a collective hour and a half on hold trying to cancel @virginmedia as they only let you do it through the phone, but don't actually pick up. Genius idea really

  • DeanConway1 Dean Conway (@DeanConway1) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia your customer service is a joke!!

  • BeckyyBuzz Becky...xx (@BeckyyBuzz) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia I now know what the issue was. I w contacted by a fake virgin account

  • HenLifeModelGuj Arty Hen Party (@HenLifeModelGuj) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @keeleyscorner @AngieCQuinn @virginmedia Virgin is fine on the whole. It uses the EE network

  • tonyboyXV Anthony Malfatti (@tonyboyXV) reported from Barry, Wales

    @AllyMcG4 @virginmedia That’s terrible

  • sssukiii Suki (@sssukiii) reported

    @virginmedia Please could you let me know why our broadband was down this morning and what’s being done about the intermittent connection in SE1?

  • kieraandixon Kieran Dixon (@kieraandixon) reported

    Twice in a few days that @virginmedia wifi goes down, not like I’m trying to work from home here. Hopeless

  • ClaireM89013476 Claire-Marie (@ClaireM89013476) reported

    @virginmedia Also I could not access my account as it hadn’t even been installed yet. So I had no way of logging a complaint as no one was logging for me every time I asked. Where is my call from a manager?? Ill be taking the advice from the ombudsman&taking this further

  • onlya23 A (@onlya23) reported

    @virginmedia After 3 hours on the phone to resolve this issue back in January, I was told the issue would be looked into and relevant compensation issued. Only today have I received an email saying that the resolution is "Education given". The customer service to this point has been awful

  • bengaytten Ben G (@bengaytten) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah, great speeds for the actual broadband. However, the Hub 3 is awful! Poor signal reach and intermittent service. I work from home and require constant connection but the hub 3 repeatedly disconnects. The other night I got disconnected over a dozen times on a 3 hr video call.

  • humans_oh Oh-Humans (@humans_oh) reported

    @virginmedia Yesterday. Complaint was going to be reviewed by senior management this week and someone was to contact me. Guess not, given they've now closed it!

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Sorry, I don’t understand how posting on a forum will get me in contact with someone who can help me. The customer service isn’t good enough.

  • S4lllyC Sally Coles 💙 (@S4lllyC) reported

    @virginmedia Just reconnected, finally, after 19 hours down. It’s getting to be a bit of a nuisance, to say the least!

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Sorry, I don’t have understand how posting on a forum will get me in contact with someone who can help me. The customer service isn’t good enough.

  • jaydrive2000 Jon (@jaydrive2000) reported

    @virginmedia If you had read my string of tweets properly, you will have seen that yes, already have - it doesn’t ‘explain’ the fault, it just says there is one and that Virgin has an engineer on the way. The fact it’s been down since about 1300 yesterday is most infuriating >>
