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

    @virginmedia I have done everything you have asked me to do regarding my security issue. I have responded to your texts as requested. But you never respond as you say you will. Meanwhile, more letters and texts arrive. It is futile.

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

    Good luck @virginmedia must have the worst post sales customer service in the known universe

  • GreggC_CC Gregg 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@GreggC_CC) reported from Newport, Wales

    @rupinjapan @virginmedia I've lost my connection tonight myself. Guessing it's a network wide issue tonight

  • niamunna1 Nige (@niamunna1) reported from Newport, Wales

    @Nyge_79 @virginmedia Same here. Abysmal service. I'm often in a Zoom with 40 other people and I'm the only one who drops out.

  • 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

  • KitaW Kita Williams (@KitaW) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia No. And we have called so many time and reset the box. Had 3 new computers from work so the issue is you! My broadband is frankly ****!

  • cherylockerby cheryl (@cherylockerby) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia I have had a letter to say my sons email address is sending spam emails. I have changed my password just in case but am having an issue with certain emails being undelivered. Have you put a spam indicator on my emails. This is causing me big problems

  • PerformandGrow Sally Evans (@PerformandGrow) reported from Barry, Wales

    Please help! Data, sims, devices desperately needed by refugees at this time! @VodafoneUK @SMARTYMobileUK @TalkTalk @EE @orange @virginmedia

  • 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.

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

    How awful is the @virginmedia advert, the one with the kids singing. Use auto tune next time

  • 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!! 🤬

  • 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

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

    Can’t wait until our @virginmedia contract comes to an end the worst broadband product and with genuinely the worst customer service - avoid always

  • TaffieBaggie Chris A. Stott aka Taffie Baggie (@TaffieBaggie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @EmmaKlieve @virginmedia Heard there was an outage today from my complaints handler as I'm 6 weeks into investigations in why my hub still failing.

  • Phoebe98935634 Phoebe (@Phoebe98935634) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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

    @virginmedia are honestly the worst company I’ve ever been with. Does anyone know of any good broadband deals??

  • NOVAIVLOUISE Nova Louise :) (@NOVAIVLOUISE) reported

    @virginmedia They aren’t any help? Can someone who can help call me? This is absolutely disgusting that I’ve had to spend 4 hours of my time trying to get your huge mess up sorted and no one is helping

  • sharpeangle Graham Sharpe (@sharpeangle) reported

    @virginmedia Still waiting for phone call PROMISED last night as a result of IT ticket being raised. 'Expect our support team to contact you within next 24 hours.' This was at around 7pm last night, so only 6 hours left for it to happen.

  • Tinka197630 Michelle Ann Heywood (@Tinka197630) reported

    @virginmedia after a two hour wait on your phone lines and terrible unhelpful customer service. I can’t wait to part ways come March when my contracts ends after 20 years.

  • oliviafayeh 𝒪𝓁𝒾𝓋𝒾𝒶 𝐻𝓊𝓁𝓁𝑒𝓎 (@oliviafayeh) reported

    @VirginMediaNews oh dear, I still have no service from @virginmedia and I cannot get hold of them. Two one hour holding on to the phone service to be cut off! Awful service

  • TheRichHomieRob TheRichHomieRob (@TheRichHomieRob) reported

    @virginmedia So there’s still no way of me receiving updates for this issue, understanding what’s caused this, or even why I’m expected to put up with speeds a thousandth of what we’re expected to get? I just have to sit here and wait and hope someone gets round to fixing it?

  • Ray_Stubbs Kevin Johns (@Ray_Stubbs) reported from Woodlesford, England

    @virginmedia I raised my complaint months ago and have been calling constantly since and sent the latest one yesterday

  • TheRichHomieRob TheRichHomieRob (@TheRichHomieRob) reported

    @virginmedia Great, a chat bot that’s put me through to the same team I originally spoke to who said they couldn’t help or provide meaningful updates outside of the same service status page. Where can I go to receive a reasonable response please?

  • Davie_D10_CV Urban Rooster (@Davie_D10_CV) reported

    @virginmedia Looking to speak to someone about leaving but I am unable to get beyond the automated service as it's asking for a password that was set up 9 years ago and I have never used, any help would be appreciated.

  • JoelFMRodrigues Joel Rodrigues (@JoelFMRodrigues) reported

    @WorTony @virginmedia @sebmatthews If you are still using the router provided by Virgin, swapping to a better one may do the trick. Was going for a more complex solution, until I tried a new router and realized that it solved all my issues. Even discarded the plans of updating contracted speed.
