-
Stacey J Lipowski🐧 (@staceyjlipowski) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia internet has gone down and the website is also down so can’t check if it is an issue in the area or not
-
Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia can you tell me what has gone wrong with your company!?!? I have been with you for years, without complaint but, since Dec 21, you change my contract, without my say-so & despite constant calls for 6 months, still nobody will take responsibility & sort it out!!! 😠😠
-
Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia It doesn't. No changes made. I had major problems setting this up, it went through someone in your complaints department and they had to do something manual to set the package I was on up. Clearly, even they are incapable. I've had TV for a few months, then it's just gone off.
-
Noga Fett (@darth_noga) reported from Barry, WalesAbsolutely shocking service from @virginmedia a 47% price increase for a customer of over 25 years and would rather lose a customer than give us a deal that new customers get. @BTCare @SkyHelpTeam can you do any better?
-
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.
-
Dr Chris Inglis (@ChrisSwinglis) reported from Penarth, Wales@GillibrandPeter Virgin Media are - by a significant margin - the worst company I've ever had the displeasure of having to deal with. I literally don't think there's anything in the world that could ever convince me to go back to them.
-
Stuart Ropke (@stuart_chc) reported from Cardiff, Wales@eggynewydd @virginmedia Dismally slow. Yes.
-
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.
-
Christina Macaulay (@macauc01) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia terrible service. You booked to install my equipment on 13th Dec 2023. Wrong year and no one will sort it out. Your fault entirely
-
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
-
Michelle (@msb1302) reported from Treforest, Wales@virginmedia Nope still down and isn't just me in the area.
-
Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia you absolutely SUCK! Sick to death of the poor service you are providing. No TV at all and having to wait 3 days fir a technician and yet you will still charge us, I’m FUMING!
-
Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, WalesAnother day in the life of a @virginmedia customer. TV showing fault. Ran online diagnostics, didn't fix. Site says to call. Call. Go through menu, TV, fault... sends me a text with a link to online diagnostics, says "thanks for calling" and hangs up. Worst. Company. Ever.
-
Gareth Thwaite (@GarethThwaite) reported from Barry, Wales@virginmedia can you please just admit you value new customers over 20yrs plus ones? @BT want to help a family out?
-
cheryl (@cherylockerby) reported from Barry, Wales@virginmedia I have a TiVo box but my tv screen keeps pixelating. It is not restricted to 1 channel. I have turned the box off at the plug but it has made no difference. Can you help?
-
Steve Mowat (@SteveMowat4) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England@virginmedia Both those lights should be green. Any red lights mean there is a network fault either on a cable or on the box to which the cable screws into. Now please tell me, what is so difficult to send someone out to investigate that??
-
mz f Drennan (@mz_drennan) reported from Cathays, Wales@virginmedia you ,mean the awful service you usually provide is even worse,,
-
Justine (@Justine_F1) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Looking for an update for the CF3 outage.. Channels have been off over 6 hours now Telephone too. Please advise
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Can I just ask why it is that you can respond within minutes on social media (where the public can see your actions) but then in private you are ignoring your customers and taking three weeks to deal with issues? If you have agents manning twitter why can’t you pick up the phone?
-
Rob Weaver (@welsh1lad) reported from Barry, Wales@virginmedia Define active, if you mean do I have Service’s no , do I still use my email account yes.

-
Leon Fear (@LeonFear) reportedIf I paid @virginmedia pro-rata, on the basis they provided a reliable service, my bill would be around £1.50 a month!
-
Steve George🏴 (@George66Steve) reported@CCFCGrapes @virginmedia They're a bunch of See You Next Tuesdays and I'm going to be leaving them soon. The way they rack the prices up is immoral and the supposed service they provide is non-existent.
-
m a t t (@weyland76) reportedYet again @virginmedia not providing a service that I'm paying ridiculous amounts for each month - no internet AGAIN!! Absolute dog **** company.
-
Sinbinnin (@sinbinnin) reported@virginmedia We have had no TV in L22 since Saturday 11th July, outage checker has shown fix time this afternoon - just received a text to say engineer on the way, fix time now tomorrow. This is a bit more than rubbish, how do I claim compensation? (I thought it was automatic)
-
Neil (@nellynoo72) reported@virginmedia can anyone tell me what the status is of the broadband outrage in CV4 please? All day it's just said there's an issue that your engineers are trying to fix. An ETA would be great
-
Debzy G 🦅🐦⬛🦉 (@brummiedebz) reported@virginmedia @HopeForTo There are people from various areas of the UK telling you that they have a WiFi outage at the same time Service checker confirms it for those who’ve told you. Which means it’s not an equipment issue. It’s a Virgin Media national issue and yet no announcement on here
-
What would Ash do ? (@posivisionary) reported@virginmedia broadband down AGAIN. Since last night and still not fixed. Come on now !!!!
-
Samet (@Samet_UK) reported@virginmedia No response for my DM No Wifi Called customer service and no result and still no any update or information about the outage. I will complain about Virgin Media.
