Lee Smith/DJ Leekee (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia I think it was more a BBC source issue rather than VM wide. The lip sync is just every so slightly out but seemed very put on strictly last night
-
Paul 🏴 (@paulo1927) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia as a former TV customer, now just broadband, I want to reconnect a TV package. I already have 3 boxes in my house can they not be just reconnected instead of sending my out a box?
-
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
-
damian Kerlin 🏳️🌈 (@damianKerlin) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Yes, and it is a different issue every time. How, in a capital city, is this happening everyday, with your engineers unable to do anything to improve the situation. …and what about that refund, as we are paying for internet which we are not getting?
-
Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia I have literally had enough of your appalling service!! I’ve been sent a text to call you on 0800 052 2170 and there’s no option to even speak to a human?! I refuse to spend another hour on the phone trying to sort my account! Can you please direct me to an human?

mz f Drennan (@mz_drennan) reported from Cathays, Wales@virginmedia you ,mean the awful service you usually provide is even worse,,

Paul Ivins 🏴 ♎ 💙🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️ 🇪🇺 (@ivinsp) reported from Cardiff, Wales@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
-
Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia I do not want to be with you any more because you are doing my head in!!!! You have turned from being a very good company with good service to being the most disgusting people I have ever had the displeasure of coming in contact with!!!
-
Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Firstly a refund of £351 for the Mobile part of the Oomph bundle as it was stopped a couple of months after starting the contract..still not paid to me! The Media part..nothing has been done at all..no solution..just continual pestering to pay by debt collectors or cut service!
-
Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia With respect, your customer service advisors are useless. As is the technology for contacting them. As per my initial message. Last time I went through this I was booked a chat appointment by your twitter team with someone who specifically handled the complaint.
-
sarah dobson (@dobbo79) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia my WiFi is down AGAIN, come on, this is stupid now!!
-
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?
-
Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia I hope so. The extremely patronising and rude person I spoke to yesterday in an abroad call centre told me there was no complaints department and he couldn’t do anything at all until I paid the bill.
-
andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales@virginmedia why does it seem impossible to sort my TV and WiFi out? My partner has been phoning up on and off for a year or more about poor signal, not being able to use catch and apps and general poor service. Just get fobbed off.] Is this how you treat all customers?
-
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.
-
Sam Sims (@mantha_1976) reported from Newport, Waleshey @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)

MarcB (@555Husker) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia When will the website be fixed? It has been broken for weeks, ever since you “improved” it.
-
Ritch Zablan (@blue_murdock) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia … is there network cover problem here cardiff now?
-
andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, WalesProperly for the best part of a yr doesn't seem a problem to yourselves but your quite happy to take out monthly payment for a service we're paying for but you're not providing & seem to be in no hurry to provide it. Disgraceful service @virginmedia

Jessica Simpson 😺🐶🐾 (@Jess_Simpson645) reportedTo @virginmedia- Many thanks to your Technician who came out today following the outage in my area. Although I was back online by this time he checked over all the equipment and settings, and also discovered that the router needed changing-which he did - very polite and efficient man. I don’t use my real name on here for safety and security reasons, but if you want to send me a DM, I will let you know.
