    Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia A laughable statement in all honesty you're known for terrible service, demonstrated by the line "Package changes". Who said package changes? I have a TV package, I signed up for, have a contract for and have been using since June. It's disappeared your end, I have the docs.

  • brodyanderson_
    Brody (@brodyanderson_) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yeah have already called. Reports no service issues in my location despite online reporting intermittent issues this morning. Ability to book an engineer has disappeared. Help appreciated - now over 24h without connection

  • BackOnTrack__
    Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia still waiting since 7.30 am for the engineer to come to sort out the problems we are having, he’s 25 minutes to get here ( we were given 7.30-13 slot) still no tv since Thursday!

    Monkenstien. (@3_monk) reported from Beechwood, Wales

    @virginmedia I get your bills, that is how I realised as a loyal customer I am paying £40 plus a month for Internet access only. Fortunately for me and not for you BT Openreach have been installing fibre to home allowing me greater negotiating power as tou have no respect for loyalty.

    Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia You really aren’t reading the messages, I’ve now told 3 different channels of my mothers death, I’ve called bereavement line to be hung up on, then closed early. I want a complaint raised, @Ofcom can you help?

  • GillibrandPeter
    Peter Gillibrand (@GillibrandPeter) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia any help? Seems a bit excessive if you’re citing inflation… a little bit of transparency may help…!

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

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Yes. Have done this and spoken with your ‘fault management service’ who cut me off when I was explaining the problem.

  • Welsh_Saint14
    Ryan Davenport (@Welsh_Saint14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia My wife is currently on the phone to your customer service regarding this matter so hopefully it'll be resolved this evening, if not then a web chat from 4pm would be the best time for me

  • MaartenSleeckx
    MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @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".

  • RedhillsAnnie
    Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Alleluia @virginmedia Just taken one month to have most issues resolved. Feedback: less silos in customer service so they can see all issues and be more helpful.

    @virginmedia Hi can someone help me I'm trying to log in to my account but keeps saying there's a problem at your end

  • MsWhippet1
    Trudi Foster (@MsWhippet1) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @virginmedia I was told to wait in this morning between 8am - 12pm for an engineer to fix my broadband. It's now 2pm and no sign of an engineer. I was told I'd be charged £25 if I missed the appointment. I think I should charge you for having to hang around for 6 hours waiting.

    Graham Findlay FRSA 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺 (@FindlayEquality) reported from Cathays, Wales

    @rwilliams1947 @virginmedia It seems VM are also messing up landlines too. They now need to connect the phone cable to the Wi-Fi hub . Which means lots of trouble in my house and many other properties across the UK. And good luck with trying to discontinue their contract - they make it very difficult.

  • jonfoz1
    Jon Foster (@jonfoz1) reported

    @BobLakey1 @virginmedia Got the same problem. Message came up that I'm not authorised to watch any channels including BBC and ITV and to contact 150. When I tried, the phone line doesn't recognise my phone number and the website can't trace my account. Nothing to do but wait I guess.
