    @virginmedia the state of your customer service is appalling. Your sales team pick up within 2 seconds but can’t get hold of ANYONE in troubleshoot for 2 days #Disappointednotangry #richardwhatyoudoing

  • PentwynP Pentwyn & Llanedeyrn Pickers (@PentwynP) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia @WeAreOpenreach @cardiffcouncil @LornaLwyl @Keep_Wales_Tidy I believe this particular one is openreach, just highlighting this is an issue with both companies. One volunteer has previously written to virgin media posting spent wiring with the letters, but this issue it seems is not being addressed adequately across the whole of the UK

  • robkbangor Rob Knowles (@robkbangor) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia we would like to cancel our contract with you but your website is sending us round in circles and it’s impossible to get through to your call centre. You’re taking advantage of the lockdown to rip people off!! 🤬

  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    @Spudsghost @EE The @virginmedia crapness is to do with their router I think it’s useless and can’t send the WiFi through paper thin plasterboard or handle the TV signal

  • dlrwills Dan Williams (@dlrwills) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia Internet is terrible lately. Good job I have mobile data otherwise I’d be living in the dark ages.

  • ItsLau_xo 🦋Laura 🦋 (@ItsLau_xo) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    So we pay over £100 a month for full @virginmedia package and fastest Internet going, but is it so so bad. It keeps cutting out all the time or going slow.

  • TheMMEvent Mike Anthony Moreno (@TheMMEvent) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • lfmortgages lisafletchermortgages (@lfmortgages) reported from Barry, Wales

    Terrible service from #virginmedia for 3 months+. Spent hours on the phone for the goalposts to be moved again. Apparently if you are residential customer intermittent service in a 24 hour period is acceptable, even if that is 10 minutes Bye bye 🖐🏻🖐🏻#bonvoyage

  • SadrAmir shark (@SadrAmir) reported

    @virginmedia Constantly get disconnected, if you work from home avoid Virgin Media at all cost. Unreliable, poor service with no support and automatic answering machine. What a waste! Congratulations @virginmedia for being the worst ever broadband service in UK!

  • HoneySarfo HoneySarfo (@HoneySarfo) reported

    @virginmedia I feel completely helpless. 2-3 years I was unwell and recently regained good health and independence. Now I have to ask family and friends to babysit me in case I fall and need emergency assistance and can't get to the phone, and I have to take time off work.

  • VicWicks Victoria Wicks (@VicWicks) reported

    @virginmedia I’m trying so hard to cancel 8 orders with you that haven’t activated yet, your customer service is awful! They’ve hung up on me 5 times so I can’t cancel. I’m so stressed!!.

    @virginmedia Well can you tell your advisors this? They are adamant I must pay it. Also an advisor has just put the phone down on me. And I’ve been waiting for a supervisor to ring me since yesterday.
