  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia You can, I assume this is potentially an agency who is managing their social media accounts. So you can kindly pass these on to a manager from the complaints team please. This is beyond poor customer service!

  • andyedwards34 andrew edwards (@andyedwards34) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia I understand that but if it’s not related to virgin how did they get my service provider and date payment is due,customer services are aware of this,as a service provider have you informed potential victims that this has happened?

  • andyedwards34 andrew edwards (@andyedwards34) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia Received a text message with a link saying that my bill had not been paid and update my details checked my bank and paid that day customer services confirmed this also this is the second time this has happened why does my information keep getting breached?

  • emmalouise_ions Emma Ions (@emmalouise_ions) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Nett13y @virginmedia It’s always internet we’ve had a issue with TV has been fine. Shocking service.

  • Sionedwards Siôn Edwards 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺 (@Sionedwards) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    ....and now that I’m led to wonder if I might get better service elsewhere re internet provider, can anybody advise on their experience of quitting @virginmedia ?

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

    @virginmedia TV down in Newport, Gwent area. Has been for a while. Any idea when it's back on please?

  • emmalouise_ions Emma Ions (@emmalouise_ions) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @Nett13y @virginmedia Hi. No never spoke to anyone. Gone to BT.

  • LukeBCornish Luke Cornish (@LukeBCornish) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia pls can you help? Website and app help doesn't address the technical issues and don't provide way to contact you. Phoned 150, automated system said it would update & restart TV. Nothing happened. Can't watch recorded programmes since 12th Oct. Frustrating!

  • ABoweACS Mr Bowe - Abbeywood CS (@ABoweACS) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia we're in a firebreak lockdown! it's miserable outside! the only positive thing about today is the @BritishBakeOff and your TV service goes down.. Get your act together mun!

  • WildthingJ74 Johnathan Williams (@WildthingJ74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @emmalouise_ions @virginmedia @skytv They won't even want to talk to customers. Had same recorded message fobbing you off to the site even though that doesn't help with what I need

  • sioden Sioned Wyn 💛 (@sioden) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes this is the form I’ve been filling in. Twice. And I’ve never received the returns package to be able to return the kit. Will it be different this time?!

  • jonthompenfarm JonnyT (@jonthompenfarm) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia right - how on earth do you actually speak to someone in your team? If I have issues with my broadband, it’s not exactly practical to advise me to head to your website! Any options on how to speak to someone?

  • andyedwards34 andrew edwards (@andyedwards34) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia It wasn’t an email it was a text message I have reported it and they are aware of it if it’s nothing to do with a data breach how do they know my service provider, mobile number and day the bill is supposed to be paid?

    @virginmedia I’ve tried multiple times now. Can you help me please?

  • drewwrintmore Drew (@drewwrintmore) reported

    @virginmedia Trying to use online help - what a joke - click on help - choose the help you want - then asks you to sign in and then you go back to my virgin home and have to click help ( which signs you out ) then get stuck in a loop of signing in and not getting the help - what a joke

  • TanyaShields458 Tanya Shields (@TanyaShields458) reported

    @virginmedia how do we get in touch? Phone line doesn’t ring, your online chat isn’t helpful. Broadband is horrendous and need help. #poorcustomerservice

  • Vegan_footqueen vegan_footqueen 👣 (@Vegan_footqueen) reported

    @virginmedia When I call it doesn't even connect- just hangs up. My phone is working as I just spoke to EE. Why can't I log on either? I really need to cancel before you take another payment!!

  • leanne_rylance Leanne Rylance (@leanne_rylance) reported

    @virginmedia No there’s never a problem in the area. Your internet is just crap

  • blackrun42 Steve PW (@blackrun42) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia Had unresolved problem with TV service for months now, complaints ignored/no response paying for services I can’t get, now to be informed price going up, tried to ring numerous times unable to get a line or get through. Can’t even get through to cancel my contract!!

  • Pilotiain Iain (@Pilotiain) reported

    @virginmedia my internet is down and has been since 8am. Your phone line is none existent. How do I get in touch with an actual human?

  • askhighton highton design studio (@askhighton) reported

    @virginmedia Will be making a written complaint today regarding disastrous service. #media @Ofcom

  • SHaigh92 Shaun Haigh (@SHaigh92) reported

    @virginmedia Irrespective of budget, I don’t think it sends a good message out to existing customers that their loyalty is valued at £1080 more expensive than a new customer joining. I’ll get him to send a text, but I think he may look at competitors now.

  • JMilner19 Jon (@JMilner19) reported

    @bt_uk FINALLY got 98mbps download from @virginmedia COMPARED to @bt_uk giving me 0.14 MBPS AND REFUSING TO REFUND/ HELP. DO NOT USE BT, SERVICE ISN’T FIT FOR PURPOSE. #broadband
