    @richie_rich77 @virginmedia If it's just a WiFi issue and your LAN connection is OK maybe try a mesh system. Works great here with BT

    @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.

  • 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

    Jordan (@welshcuriosity) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Upgrading to gigabit broadband meant getting a new router from VirginMedia, so took the opportunity to tidy up and remove old cabling and extension leads. Didn't realise just how much unused crap I still had plugged in/taking up space

  • mantha_1976
    Sam Sims (@mantha_1976) reported from Newport, Wales

    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)

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

    @virginmedia is it normal practice when a call is made to you about problems with the tivo box (3rd time this year) that you're then on a call for over an hr at at the end of it promised an upgrade, go thro all the protocols only to be told actually you can't have that

  • SewScandalous
    Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, Wales

    Oh, looks like @virginmedia have disconnected my service 7 days before they were meant to 🙄 Absolute rubbish.

    @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".

    When I can and I suggest to my entire family as soon as we are all out of contract with @virginmedia … RUN how this company isn’t shut down is beyond me at this point

  • MrProcter
    MrProcter (@MrProcter) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you. And maybe consider disabling it for World Cups, Christmas Day etc? No-one wants their telly to shut down because they've been watching it. I know you understand this. Thanks.

    @ZDangermouse @virginmedia Good on you @virginmedia are dogshit. Their customer service is absolutely abysmal...

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Don't use Onestream, awful service, kept having mast problems so internet kept failing daily and i couldn't get out of the contract.

  • ShhrMor
    Shahar Mor (@ShhrMor) reported

    @Rugby_Scoop @virginmedia TBH, I'm not sure what POM wants. Would he rather the ref penalized the Irish for these "minor" breakdown infringements? His "coaching" actually helped Ireland slow the ball down without being penalized. Not to mention at least 3 yellows that were not given to them...

  • pwatsonmontrose
    Patrick Watson (@pwatsonmontrose) reported

    @virginmedia I am a customer. Please stop sending me messages on Twitter to other customers of yours .. {mainly to customers wanting to leave Virgin!)

    Why is the tv channel 5 so quiet ? @channel5_tv I’m watching through virgin media tv box. Same as Netflix that really quiet too compared to all other channels/apps ? Is it a @virginmedia broadcasting issue ?

  • quizrollawin
    Asha rollawin (@quizrollawin) reported

    @virginmedia I'm a former customer and want to make a complaint but this isn't possible online without having a VM account - so how can people complain as former customers who are owed money?
