  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia 20 minutes waiting to escalate a complaint that wasn’t even set up just to get talked over and cut off. No basic understanding of GDPR it seems as my SAR wasn’t actioned.

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia It’s been going on for months, I have had all new boxes and hub but it still goes down. I have been told to keep my local engineer up to date. There is nothing the help desk can do we have tried everything

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Both wired and not, advised to turn off and back on, diagnostics checked at your end, engineer visit, resulted in all new v6 boxes (x2) and a new internet hub also internal wiring checked and re-connected. Issue seemed to be resolved for a while but after then goes off altogether

  • WynfordE Wyn Emanuel (@WynfordE) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    As my @virginmedia bill is now creeping up towads 130pcm I called to cancel or negotiate. A small discount was offered. I was surprised how little effort was made to retain a customer. (‘OK, thank you for calling’). So I’ll have to switch.

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia We had a 6 day internet outage at the end of July. I’ve just got the bill for next month and there are no credits on it to account for the outage - we’re still being charged the same amount.

  • RPagey Richad Page (@RPagey) reported from Beechwood, Wales

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes, I understand that. But after signing up to SMS updates four times via two methods, I’d expect to at least be receiving texts telling me that the fix times have been pushed back.

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Nice going, @virginmedia - called to check how my complaint and SAR are progressing as they were requested on Thursday and I didn’t get the same day call back promised by the TM. Called back today to find 1. Complaint not set up. 2. SAR not submitted. AND....

    @virginmedia And if someone offers help, how do I know it is genuine Virgin staff and not a scammer?

  • amyjsmith944 Amy Smith (@amyjsmith944) reported

    @virginmedia I'm sure @EE Can show ya how to set up a phone company if you need help? Paying for a bill I have not been able to use today?

  • ARecoverer A Soldier, A Gambler, A Recoverer (Drew) (@ARecoverer) reported

    @Mark_Cams @virginmedia I done work for virgin doing installs. Customer service is shocking. Even as a contracted the call centre was India.

  • LiamStretton Liam Stretton (@LiamStretton) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. Also wrote a formal letter of complaint to the address given on your website which got returned by royal mail saying address didn't exist. Joke of a company. I need a manager to ring me tomorrow before I leave and join @skytv

  • Limits_UK Limits (@Limits_UK) reported

    Welp banned for another week on fort nite cause of @virginmedia ‘S ****** internet going down every ******* hour it seems now, GG’s no streams or occasional apex streams maybe, I really don’t know anymore, trying to be consistent with streaming but just can’t due to internet soz

  • edwards_babs Babs Edwards (@edwards_babs) reported

    @virginmedia No, do you have a public website ( like the one I posted earlier with pics ) that shows virgin customers if other virgin customers are having issues, soo they don’t ring you unnecessarily. If virgin customers see others have probs no need to ring as the problem is at your end.

  • WarrenBaister Warren Baister 🇬🇧 (@WarrenBaister) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia There isn’t any reported problems in my area but mine is very ‘hit and miss’ at the moment. I’ll go for periods where nothing will upload/download at all

  • Topazz22268130 crisis (@Topazz22268130) reported

    @virginmedia This doesn't do anything it'll never work.

  • Belugekko Mark Wrangham (@Belugekko) reported

    @virginmedia My only alternative as I’m in rented accommodation with only VM lines running in, is to get a 4g router. Just tired of phoning your support team and complaining. They are all great, just the service that falls way below expectations.

  • KenBailey143 Ken Bailey (@KenBailey143) reported

    @virginmedia Having followed instructions my router is now not working. You suggest that I should search forums for help. Seriously? I want Virgin to sort out the problem. Having already had a frustrating day, this response is really quite nasty. I am being played for a fool
