    @virginmedia are genuinely the worst broadband service, I've been left with no Internet or TV service since 2pm with no update to when it'll be back 🥴

  • Jessybell1988 Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I’ve called 08454541111 several times and can’t get through to anyone in a UK call centre who can help. Please can I have a direct number for a UK call centre for complaints or cancellation department immediately? This has been going on months! I am very stressed and very annoyed

  • clareasimpson Clare Simpson (@clareasimpson) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @virginmedia you sent the wrong engineer team to fix our severed cable yesterday and the team today didn't turn up!! Day 4 without connection tomorrow and your customer services just hung up on me! What is going on?

  • jonny_ex9 Jonny Ex (@jonny_ex9) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Fix my internet please @virginmedia

  • stfcjoner1986 Moe Mellars (@stfcjoner1986) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Your WiFi keeps dropping out and disconnecting. Are there issues in the Cardiff area?

  • rhysforan rhysforan (@rhysforan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Gonna be looking elsewhere. £40 a month for poor performance is not on.

  • cardiffrebel ANDREW JUDD (@cardiffrebel) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia could you please tell me how to activate WiFi calling on Sony Xperia 5 ii my wife has it I can see how to do it on O2 network but option not available on virgin handset?

  • Jessybell1988 Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia We tried the chat option and after going through security questions got redirected to another department which was then closed and the chat ended 😡 I have sent an email complaint on your website. Appalling service and communication from day one.

  • RobertPeledie Rob Peledie (@RobertPeledie) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @virginmedia are you having issues in Weston-super-mare? Intermittent quality, now it’s down completely. Tried restarting

  • nathanspackman Nathan Spackman (@nathanspackman) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia been trying to cancel my order with you, but can't get through to everyone. The number your customer service team gave doesn't work! What number do I need to cancel?

  • josh_wats09123 Joshua Watson (@josh_wats09123) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia On the phone to a agent now told I’ve turned the box off and on multiple times still not working

  • Jessybell1988 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.

  • wenglishpaul Paul Scanlon 🏃‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏃🎖 (@wenglishpaul) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Well after 20 years of being a loyal @skytv customer its time to leave. They have taken my custom for granted expecting me to accept poor customer service well I won't & I'm not. @skytv loss is very much @virginmedia gain.

  • Chloe_coy_ Chloe coy (@Chloe_coy_) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia @Chloe_Co It’s an issue within the house apparently. The flat above had perfect internet. We have had nothing and no call back!!

  • dma990 Dania.M (@dma990) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia tv box not turning on, tries to start up and then turns back off help pls

  • KerryMordey Kerry Mordey (@KerryMordey) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    .@virginmedia we have had NO service for 2 days & our IT provider says it’s because construction workers have cut through your lines. Is this correct & if so, when do you anticipate this will be rectified please?

  • RupaliaSunny Sunny Rupalia (@RupaliaSunny) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia have the worse broad band service....customer service is a shambles and all.

  • hugemassiff Simon Hughes (@hugemassiff) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia surprise surprise, was promised after 10 days of no internet it would be fixed today by 1.45 in slough. STILL NOT WORKING!

  • robatherton Rob Atherton (@robatherton) reported

    @virginmedia 1 hour 45 mins to get through security questions via chat. I didn't think it was possible to make this simple task so slow.

  • brusson81 ben (@brusson81) reported

    @virginmedia how is it that when I go to your website as a new customer and select the same package I'm downgrading to I see it as £45 a month for 18 months then £82 a month. I've just been told for me it's £98! 100mb BB, Maxit Tv & a phoneline.

  • chrisrockayy FI CLR (@chrisrockayy) reported

    @virginmedia Hi @virginmedia i've been trying to get through to your customer service for 3 days now - my line keeps getting hung up on after waiting for half an hour sometimes on hold. How can i speak to someone regarding my services?

  • Jlawireland Jeremy Law (@Jlawireland) reported

    @virginmedia Tried calling the number as you told me and as was in the letter. Maddening to then wait for ages on the phone only telling me to please go online.......you just didn’t want to take the complaint seriously....#poorcustomerservice

  • suzieblues1 suzieblues (@suzieblues1) reported

    I am working from home and you are disconnecting my service when I pay over 100 for my services every month! Please throw me a line!! It’s impossible to talk to anyone. None of your automatic options help! I’m really appalled with your customer service @virginmedia

  • suzieblues1 suzieblues (@suzieblues1) reported

    @virginmedia I am at a loss. I upgraded my package, increased my payments to you. I haven’t received my hub, I’ve tried to contact you numerous times to no avail on any medium. And now I’ve had a call to say I’m going to be disconnected in four hours due to router problems

  • TheManintheMid6 The Man in the Middle (@TheManintheMid6) reported

    @virginmedia The point is that this very important detail is not in any of the documentation you gave to me before or after I signed up to your service. In effect you are not providing the service I agreed to pay for.

  • Iona_Moyle Iona Moyle (@Iona_Moyle) reported

    @virginmedia You said this would be fixed on the 18th January. It is still not working. Please get this done

  • fuzzy8 CR (@fuzzy8) reported

    @virginmedia why is your phone line not working?
