  • adewagstaff Ade Wagstaff Physio MACP 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@adewagstaff) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp I have. They were not great. I did explain that the voice options stated there was an issue. However, your email said it would have been sorted last week. You breached the 6 hour window and the 5 people I spoke to in Timbuktu didn't understand me all that well 🤦#poorservice

  • Welsh19 Stephen Squires (@Welsh19) reported from Pontardawe, Wales

    @SkyHelpTeam sort it out… it’s imperative now more than ever when we are working from home to have reliable internet!! There random outages are happening far too often and causing issue for my work and customers!! It’s just a shame I can’t get @virginmedia internet…

  • MrandMrs50Plus MrandMrs50Plus (@MrandMrs50Plus) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia So you can't supply daughter's new house with broadband and so insist on a termination fee?!? They don't want to terminate. You're the ones who can't honour the contract! Can you please help here?

  • michalincs 🧑‍💻 Michał in CS (@michalincs) reported from Swansea, Wales

    I cancelled @virginmedia broadband as the price kept increasing, the service wasn't. They offered 75% more speed for 40% less as I was such a "loyal customers for years". Effectively, they admitted they were overcharging me for years hoping that will make me stay! No thank you.

  • MikeARose98 Michael (@MikeARose98) reported from Cwmafan, Wales

    @virginmedia why are your customer advisors refusing to let people leave? I keep getting hung up on within a few minutes after they've transferred me between each other a few times. This service is shockingly bad 😡

  • ELGriff28 Elliot Griffiths (@ELGriff28) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia No explanation was given as i mentioned. My problem still isnt solved and im sick and tired of dealing with incompetent agents. Dont worry about the complaint ill raise my concerns with @Ofcom

  • adewagstaff Ade Wagstaff Physio MACP 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@adewagstaff) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia business- 30 mins outage on Friday and its still off. Take it you are giving me a free couple of months for the poor service? Thanks, very kind.

  • DarrenH99174695 Darren Hughes (@DarrenH99174695) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Wife had spent over four hours on the phone to various operatives over two days, no help whatsoever.

  • philcowley2 Phil Cowley #YJB4LIFE (@philcowley2) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia PS I know the link is at the bottom when you scroll down, it's just it would be easier if it was at the top

  • Natalieball1984 NATALIE BALL 🛡️ (@Natalieball1984) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @virginmedia I never received a final bill on paper, only paperless but because it's been so long now, none of that information is on my account anymore when I log in! I've looked now & it's giving me no info. Can u please DM me so I can send my customer number & u can looking into this plz!

  • Natalieball1984 NATALIE BALL 🛡️ (@Natalieball1984) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @virginmedia I received it back in May/June time, I already logged a complaint with the person who promised me they had sort it because of your absolutely abysmal customer service and still nearly another month later, moving into October I still have not received my refund! Coming into 6 mths

  • KevDocChild Kevin Child (@KevDocChild) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia you really are impossible!20+ years as a customer, you invite me to get in touch to discuss my end of contract choices, then provide the lamest excuses when I try but fail! Mmm #timeforachangeofprovider

  • grumpyoldprof Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    Hello @virginmedia. I cannot sign in to my ntlworld email - it says my password is not recognised. Is the server down please as my password has not changed. This has happened at least 6 times in the last 12 months.

  • HayleyJones1987 Haylz 🦢🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@HayleyJones1987) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Hi, who can help in setting up a new landline phone? I’ve followed the instructions it came with but it doesn’t make calls or receive etc. thanks.

  • grumpyoldprof Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    Could someone @virginmedia please help. I cannot access my ntlworld emails. This happened a few weeks ago when I was shut out of my account at your end.

  • ELGriff28 Elliot Griffiths (@ELGriff28) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes, there is. I have outages every week and im trying to work from home. Everytime i call i get the same answer (theres nothing we can do) I asked to raise a complaint and i was told that agents arent allowed? Appalling service!!!!😡

  • enfysjack Paul Johnson (@enfysjack) reported from Swansea, Wales

    He @virginmedia Can you explain to me why a new customer can have the same package as me for £33 ? Whilst I am currently paying £85

  • Gezz99 Geraint Reynolds (@Gezz99) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia please update your Virgin Mobile automated message which says lines are open until 22:00. I called at 21:05 and connected to a lost & stolen line who couldn't help and also said they couldn't feed back to anyone that the automated message is wrong 🤦

  • JOHNSONGAYNOR GAYNOR JOHNSON (@JOHNSONGAYNOR) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @virginmedia Had trouble with TV since this morning. Now have just BBC and ITV. Tried phoning but had short message saying they are busy and phone later! Phoned later…same message! What’s going on!?

  • grumpyoldprof Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    Hello @virginmedia. My ntl email is down for third time in as many months and am unable to connect to the server. How long before it is back please?

  • CristinaFiggins Cristina Figgins (@CristinaFiggins) reported

    @virginmedia Shameful. TWO of your reps just hung up on me. Why can't you confirm that you owe me a credit after old service closed. Did you think I wouldn't notice?? #badservice #Virginmedia #thieves

  • shandy_defender Paul Mayfield (@shandy_defender) reported

    @mometfisher @virginmedia Rubbish, our virgin box decided to rename the WiFi ID the other day, to 1. It was either change numerous devices to re link to the WiFi or delv into Google, thankfully I found how to change the name back. I've had lots of issues with it.

  • DiamondGoGal Ruth Davidson (@DiamondGoGal) reported

    @virginmedia Yes after 2 and a half hours! To be told all static IP addresses were down. You couldn’t have announced that on social media to prevent thousands of people phoning you? Pathetic customer service.

  • YesCompSols Alan Goodman (@YesCompSols) reported

    So umn @vmbusiness @virginmedia what happened at 01:52:07 BST? Nationwide outage of your Virgin Media Business cable network? 12 hours 48 minutes in now, multiple clients affected. Phone support say to check outage communicator but I can't find out how to do this?

  • DerrenM_cap_hpi Derren Martin (@DerrenM_cap_hpi) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry for delay, my internet was down again. I’ve literally just had a reply saying case is resolved, resolution was no fault exists now & an apology to customer. What about all the downtime? All the wasted time chasing a response? The pods I asked for to improve coverage. A joke

  • krystofereve Krystofer (@krystofereve) reported

    @virginmedia @vfwoolnough Also spoke to someone at Virgin Media who hung up on me. The customer service there is the worst I have ever encountered.

  • acmp42 Adam Pepper (@acmp42) reported

    @virginmedia well I’ve called 150 and they have no way of passing me to the customer resolution team. It seems counter intuitive that the customer complaints team won’t engage with customers. It’s almost as if they are expecting to fail so don’t want the exposure.

  • Stave0121 stave  0121©. (@Stave0121) reported

    @virginmedia wow your customer service is the worst!!!

  • TibStreetTavern Tib Street Tavern (@TibStreetTavern) reported

    We were also cut off twice when trying to ring! Abysmal service, now on hour 14 with no internet @virginmedia @vmbusiness

  • andbax38 andy (@andbax38) reported
