  • benj8min Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I dunno mate, that's why I tried to call you lot. You can't help, so don't worry about it. Another weekend without TV and internet, waiting for your engineer to turn up. Another complaint. Another refund.

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Your company is awful. I’ve called today waited 10min to the worst hold music only to be cut off. Call back to be told your closed now then state you are open between 9-6. Why are you deliberately obstructive?

  • markccfc70 Mark Smith (@markccfc70) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Been with @virginmedia back as far as old NTL days. Downgrade our package for the first time ever to keep costs down, and the Internet must have crashed at least 8 times today, the day after we changed. Absolutely useless, on the phone tomorrow to cancel this **** completely.

  • MaartenSleeckx MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia Screw you. Only me dying bothers anyone, literally anyone, it's always impossible to help me until people understand that I will kill myself. You're no better than them. See you in 2 weeks or not "AB".

  • benj8min Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Another 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.

  • andylance1977 andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia It works intermittently. This has been discussed over a series of phone calls through 12 months. A booster box has been sent too and its still poor. We're paying for a service we can't use when we want to. The TV box is next to the WiFi box downstairs & is still poor.

  • FindlayEquality 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.

  • thelee_x_w lee williams (@thelee_x_w) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia The image attached shows you have notified me of an issue

  • andylance1977 andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia why does it seem impossible to sort my TV and WiFi out? My partner has been phoning up on and off for a year or more about poor signal, not being able to use catch and apps and general poor service. Just get fobbed off.] Is this how you treat all customers?

  • jonny_ex9 Jonny Ex 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇬🇷 (@jonny_ex9) reported from Cathays, Wales

    Imagine my shock that @virginmedia is down AGAIN. Please fix it

  • cherylockerby 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?

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia You really aren’t reading the messages, I’ve now told 3 different channels of my mothers death, I’ve called bereavement line to be hung up on, then closed early. I want a complaint raised, @Ofcom can you help?

  • MaartenSleeckx MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia Clearly not as the issue keeps coming back after multiple engineer fixes outside AND in my home. You're lying through your teeth and leaving me in the dark literally. Stop hiding behind "standard business" replies, be human and help me.

  • stuart_chc Stuart Ropke (@stuart_chc) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @eggynewydd @virginmedia Dismally slow. Yes.

  • ChrisSwinglis 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.

  • GiantVeg Kevin Fortey (@GiantVeg) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @emmalunn @virginmedia Absolutely. Just had to improvise from a mobile phone with similarly shocking service too

  • amandaroberts10 amanda roberts (@amandaroberts10) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia is there a problem in the CF23 area ... no WiFi??

  • macauc01 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

  • thelee_x_w lee williams (@thelee_x_w) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Word of warning avoid @virginmedia 4 wifi like the plague. I rarely get even 20% of advertised speeds & the CS team are next 2 useless. Paying 4 daily disappointment that upsets the kids. Will never go back 2 them ever. Worst service I ave ever received @EE was so much better

  • GillibrandPeter Peter Gillibrand (@GillibrandPeter) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia any help? Seems a bit excessive if you’re citing inflation… a little bit of transparency may help…!

  • sarah_kelly11 Sarah Kelly (@sarah_kelly11) reported

    @virginmedia quite concerned that I have ordered a phone to be delivered today and @YodelOnline have failed to deliver it and lied about attempting delivery. Please can someone help.

  • timhammersley27 Tim Hammersley (@timhammersley27) reported

    So we’ve got a faulty piece of @virginmedia equipment, leaving us with no TV service for several days. Yet we still have to pay the full bill, despite receiving no service... 🤨🤨

  • Its_me_Simon Jimmy Hoffa (@Its_me_Simon) reported

    @virginmedia any chance someone can look at my account for me? No internet, phone calls don’t help. It doesn’t feel like it should be impossible to fix, but you aren’t half making it difficult.

  • CJ_y03 conner (@CJ_y03) reported

    Recently switched from sky to @VirginMedia with fundamentally better Wi-Fi results, however if it’s customer service you want, go sky any day

  • NickiB81 Nicki Carroll-Beale (@NickiB81) reported

    @virginmedia The last person my mum spoke to wanted my nan to let a random in off the street to help her run diagnostics again. She’s 84 @virginmedia this is not acceptable! She is vunerable and needs her phone

  • Lisa_Wadey Lisa 💋 🧛‍♀️ (@Lisa_Wadey) reported

    @virginmedia I've ordered double or nothing via @FiteTV on laptop but see your showing it, I'm a virgin customer how can I transfer my viewing to watch on my TV instead ?

  • xJellyheadx Jayne Armstrong (@xJellyheadx) reported

    @virginmedia we have been having WiFi issues for so long it’s a joke no one is helping paying over the top price for a useless product had enough !!! Yet again Virgin fails us ! Happy to take your money...

  • daniellebryce21 Danielle-Catherine (@daniellebryce21) reported

    @virginmedia Tried through my vm and also called although I struggle to understand a company such as yourself warrants a 2 hour wait on support number 🙄

  • Tony_Daly Tony Daly (@Tony_Daly) reported

    @virginmedia is there a problem with the internet in the Airdrie area?
