  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@cymboi) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia anyone thinking of getting their Wi-fi, think again. We’ve been with the now since NTL days and this HUB 3.0 has been the worst!! Not as good as the make out. The router is in a good position not hidden away yet it’s still crap!!

  • jsetch jane setchfield (@jsetch) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia appreciate these are difficult times for us all but I am locked out of my account and have tried all solutions offered on the website. Help please - working from home requires email access

  • soozles_ Soozles (@soozles_) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia can’t get through to speak to anyone on the phone. I want to remove sky sports from my account whilst there are no sports actually on. I’m outside of my contract now so it shouldn’t be an issue

  • DesignFourTweet Dylan Lewis (@DesignFourTweet) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Passed the street green box with doors totally open and no engineers today and thought this is not good. Sure enough it’s not #VirginMedia and #BT tv totally down #Cardiff 😡

  • SophieCloake Sophie Cloake (@SophieCloake) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @VodafoneUK don’t be fooled by the cheap internet deals!! You’ll be sat in the house waiting for the engineer to never arrive and then call to find out what is happening and no one knows! #fantastic #useless #sticktovirginmedia @virginmedia

  • kersy28 Simon Kerswell (@kersy28) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia absolutely shocking customer service! cancelled my services as of 21st March, rang you today to see what you could offer me to stay and you offer me the same package at £17 more expensive, but offer new customers the same deal but £5 cheaper that I currently pay!

  • _eeelhsa Ashxox (@_eeelhsa) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m not going to log a complaint online, I tried to complain on the phone and just get put on hold and spoken to awfully, I will be taking this further.

  • _eeelhsa Ashxox (@_eeelhsa) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia We’ve tried three times to raise a complaint with you. And this magical game appeared after the second complaint (the same day) to which the man on the phone was rude, spoke over me and implied my business wasn’t needed or respected at all.

  • Welshcake74 welshcake74 (@Welshcake74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia hi my grandparents are mid 80s they were due to transfer to Sky in a few weeks. I don’t want anyone entering their house and need your help to extend their services ufn so they have tv, WiFi and phone line for emergency. Help please

  • DRJAMESOFF James Trollope (@DRJAMESOFF) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @FizzyM7 @brumsongsben @virginmedia Someone has also tweeted that the estimated fix is around 6:05 but not sure how accurate this is

  • liam_oharaccfc Liam (@liam_oharaccfc) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I pay £40 a month JUST for WiFi!!!! it’s horrendous. Slow, can’t handle streaming a simple Amazon Prime video, and I’m getting charged DOUBLE what I paid originally a few years back! I’ll be phoning to leave Monday morning, £40 is terrible, let alone for poor service

  • QuietlyKinky Chris QK 🔞 (@QuietlyKinky) reported from Newport, Wales

    @madsmithyt @virginmedia I also have the same issue. South Wales

  • thebaronvillage Glenn Villis (@thebaronvillage) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia On the phone 20 mins and cut off . Broadband has been awful for about 6 weeks . Awful company

  • CaswellAlun Rhys Caswell (@CaswellAlun) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    Virgin media are an absolute disgrace, talk about poor customer service. My wife has been over 50mins on the phone just trying to sort out a new hub as we upgrade to the box last month, got sold a new package and then best thing is the hub is to old to run what we need.

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

    Just been told by @Bluebells048 that I need to ring @virginmedia customer services ... for the 2nd time today - epic fail again people!

  • moneypenney Anna Penney (@moneypenney) reported

    @virginmedia @megbmorley Hi where’s the status page? I had no wifi for 2 hours yesterday and it’s been down for 30 mins again today

  • eeddiieebb G4MERDADx (@eeddiieebb) reported

    @virginmedia But the advisor I just spoke to said there is an outage in the AREA???? Make it make sense atleast. Absolutely abysmal service

  • ClementsJ Jamie (@ClementsJ) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, second day running intermittent internet, out for hours at a time. Check service status and it keeps saying everything is fine. How do I report the problem? #virginmediadown

  • Jeegar_S Jeegar (@Jeegar_S) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry guys, but who do I speak to about compensation for a degraded service, its been almost 2 weeks of this with no update of a fix. Not to mention the latest firmware for your hub 3 has now completely screwed over the wifi network

  • tonbriel iBriel (@tonbriel) reported

    @VirginMediaNews Virgin media is a proper joke. When I asked to cancel my contract on the grounds of poor service guess what, they’re asking for termination fee of £240. I was tossed to 5 different reps who could not fathom any solution to the problem. That’s how bad they’re

  • smashbangwallop Smash bang wallop (@smashbangwallop) reported

    @virginmedia No, this is an ongoing issue seems to be particularly bad in SE19

  • nanipals Dr. Renuka Mudunuri (@nanipals) reported

    @virginmedia You are the worst internet provider in the country. Your technical support guy: ifran told us that VirginMedia don’t support VPN and you shouldn’t use VPN for work from home. Why did not you mention this in the contract

  • lisalouann Lisa Martin 🤍🖤 (@lisalouann) reported

    @virginmedia 1) After being on the phone for over an hour explaining our issue of no WIFI upstairs, Tivo box not working properly and not able to view Prime or On Demand Live Events we’ve purchased, the polite Virgin rep needed to get authority from a Floor Manager to book

  • BoingUK Scott 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@BoingUK) reported

    Customer service @virginmedia is proper shocking, bad decision to switch over to them #poorservice #allaboutthemoney

  • StuartAParker Stoo Parker (@StuartAParker) reported

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness OK, I’ll play the game again. I’ll report back here with how well they did resolving the issue.
