    @syeporter180 @virginmedia I’m on virgin and it’s not that great Sye, I was going to sky before I renewed but had the same problem as you because I’d of had to wait months for BT to install a cable so just stuck to the devil I know in the end

  • damianKerlin
    damian Kerlin 🏳️‍🌈 (@damianKerlin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes, and it is a different issue every time. How, in a capital city, is this happening everyday, with your engineers unable to do anything to improve the situation. …and what about that refund, as we are paying for internet which we are not getting?

  • TimmyGrunt

    Anyone suffering internet outage from @virginmedia ??

    Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Alleluia @virginmedia Just taken one month to have most issues resolved. Feedback: less silos in customer service so they can see all issues and be more helpful.

    Gareth Jones (@gazthebluebird1) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I am unable to sign into my online account and trying to speak to anyone at your company its like trying to make contact with the moon, can you open up a DM conversation to help please?

  • Dazc090861
    Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I do not want to be with you any more because you are doing my head in!!!! You have turned from being a very good company with good service to being the most disgusting people I have ever had the displeasure of coming in contact with!!!

  • Dazc090861
    Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia In Dec, you sent an email thanking me for making changes & what I'd get from now on & it'd cost over twice as much as I was paying. I never asked for any changes & in one of the many, calls I've made, I was told that your Oomph bundle department had shut around the same time.

  • BackOnTrack__

    @virginmedia still waiting since 7.30 am for the engineer to come to sort out the problems we are having, he’s 25 minutes to get here ( we were given 7.30-13 slot) still no tv since Thursday!

  • paulo1927
    Paul 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@paulo1927) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia as a former TV customer, now just broadband, I want to reconnect a TV package. I already have 3 boxes in my house can they not be just reconnected instead of sending my out a box?

  • BackOnTrack__
    Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, 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".

    @thewson72 @virginmedia Great when on. So much faster than anyone else. But useless service when it’s down.

  • BackOnTrack__
    Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Rather than patronise me just offer a good service snd get it sorted tomorrow.

  • SATempest
    Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yep. Just been on hold for 1 hour 3 minutes and as soon as I got through it cut off. Sent multiple follow up WhatsApp messages and still nothing. You really need to sort out your customer service because I’ve been waiting 3 weeks just to get back into contact with someone!!!

  • 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?

    @virginmedia why is my service down, Liverpool L4. Quick enough to take my money and yet every other day your service is unreliable. Don’t think I will be renewing with you after this.

    @virginmedia I'm therefore trying to understand whether there are any additional checks or blocking options available at Virgin Media's end, as I have already exhausted the options available to me as a customer.
