  • iantosh4 Ian McIntosh (@iantosh4) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia Very frustrating as seem to just go around in circles with the same issues! Could you arrange for someone to call 2mo to discuss and resolve please (Save me calling and waiting again)

  • hannahtottle Hannah N-T (@hannahtottle) reported from Panteg, Wales

    @virginmedia I don’t want to waste more of my day doing that, I want you to do what you (publicly) said you’d do, stop lying to customers online and actually do something to help. Virgin is worth £19.5 billion, I’m sure you can make the situation I’d imagine lots of people are in bearable.

  • _eeelhsa Ashxox (@_eeelhsa) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia We’ve tried three times to raise a complaint with you. And this magical game appeared after the second complaint (the same day) to which the man on the phone was rude, spoke over me and implied my business wasn’t needed or respected at all.

  • QuietlyKinky Chris QK 🔞 (@QuietlyKinky) reported from Newport, Wales

    @madsmithyt @virginmedia I also have the same issue. South Wales

  • OfficialCurtiss Curtis_Tyler (@OfficialCurtiss) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia have got to be the worst company to go with for broadband. Paying the “best broadband “ yet it drops every week. Trying to order a booster is a ******* nightmare , absolutely joke, shouldn’t even left SKY. Tamping 😡😤

    @virginmedia I’m not going to log a complaint online, I tried to complain on the phone and just get put on hold and spoken to awfully, I will be taking this further.

  • bethanjane22 Beth (@bethanjane22) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    When I renew, @virginmedia offer free AirPods with some plans and @O2 do the same! So much for customer loyalty, they just want more and more money! 🤬

  • kersy28 Simon Kerswell (@kersy28) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia absolutely shocking customer service! cancelled my services as of 21st March, rang you today to see what you could offer me to stay and you offer me the same package at £17 more expensive, but offer new customers the same deal but £5 cheaper that I currently pay!

  • SilverwoodVS Dr Victoria Silverwood (@SilverwoodVS) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @JackoGaz @virginmedia It’s down over the whole city. I broke it out of sheer frustration watching that drivel and spent the third period cooking vegetables rather than continue watching. That’s how serious it was 🥬🥒🥕🥦

  • SophieCloake Sophie Cloake (@SophieCloake) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @VodafoneUK don’t be fooled by the cheap internet deals!! You’ll be sat in the house waiting for the engineer to never arrive and then call to find out what is happening and no one knows! #fantastic #useless #sticktovirginmedia @virginmedia

  • liam_oharaccfc Liam (@liam_oharaccfc) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I pay £40 a month JUST for WiFi!!!! it’s horrendous. Slow, can’t handle streaming a simple Amazon Prime video, and I’m getting charged DOUBLE what I paid originally a few years back! I’ll be phoning to leave Monday morning, £40 is terrible, let alone for poor service

  • ciaran_keohane Ciaran Keohane (@ciaran_keohane) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia why are you so shit

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@cymboi) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia anyone thinking of getting their Wi-fi, think again. We’ve been with the now since NTL days and this HUB 3.0 has been the worst!! Not as good as the make out. The router is in a good position not hidden away yet it’s still crap!!

  • DesignFourTweet Dylan Lewis (@DesignFourTweet) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Passed the street green box with doors totally open and no engineers today and thought this is not good. Sure enough it’s not #VirginMedia and #BT tv totally down #Cardiff 😡

  • eldonnell7319 emmylou14 (@eldonnell7319) reported from Bedford, England

    @virginmedia 7hours on a phone call to get 1 engineer to visit is beyond a joke your call centre have issues with not taking any notes or saying anything that is not on a script

  • thomas_koop thomas coupe (@thomas_koop) reported from Hucknall under Huthwaite, England

    @virginmedia There is no issue in the area as neighbours with virgin are using the service without problem. What should I do to resolve the service

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia I was advised that I need to speak to a different department, by what feels like every department in Virgin Media! Whoever dealt with the house to house transfer has made an error.. and has somehow cancelled my service. But no department is taking responsibility to fix

  • guymaxwell Guy Maxwell (@guymaxwell) reported from Southampton, England
