    @virginmedia Hi I have had no broadband for the past few hours. Just wondering if there's an outage issue regarding cf63 postcode. Thanks in advance x

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • reddevil1975 Leanne Everest 🙏❤ 🌈 🦄 (@reddevil1975) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Thank you so much, I spoke on the phone a problem has been located was told it may take up to 4 hrs or less to fix it. Unfortunately it's not looking good as it's over 4 hrs now and still flashing green.

  • sioden Sioned Wyn 💛 (@sioden) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    You @virginmedia have the ABSOLUTE WORST telephone system I have ever wncountered. I’m trying to sort out an alleged unpaid bill (it bloody well isn’t an unpaid bill btw it’s incompetence on your behalf meaning I got billed well AFTER cancelling back in March 2020)

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

    @virginmedia I have literally had enough of your appalling service!! I’ve been sent a text to call you on 0800 052 2170 and there’s no option to even speak to a human?! I refuse to spend another hour on the phone trying to sort my account! Can you please direct me to an human?

  • 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.

  • dobbo79 sarah dobson (@dobbo79) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia my WiFi is down AGAIN, come on, this is stupid now!!

  • 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?

  • 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

  • RedhillsAnnie Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia So fed up of the lousy WiFi. Can’t join the network even though the correct password is used.

  • 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

  • misselisamartin Elisabeth (@misselisamartin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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 🥴

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

    Fix my internet please @virginmedia

  • 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?

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

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

  • 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.

  • pl62girl pl62girl (@pl62girl) reported

    @virginmedia No time to spend trying to fix ‘your’ problems at the moment - will no doubt get rectified if enough people complain! Don’t use that app much.

  • leegarryallen LAllen (@leegarryallen) reported

    @virginmedia dudes... My internet has been down since Sunday. Online says it should be up by noon tomorrow. Any other details if I DM you? Other people on estate unaffected despite website saying area fault. No engineers spotted locally at all.

  • FarmLover1 TallulahGee (@FarmLover1) reported

    @virginmedia why is it I’ve tried four times to get help via your ‘WhatsApp’ service and have always had to give up due to ultra slow responses? It’s ridiculous. It doesn’t work!!! The service is appalling.

  • jadesharp1992 Jade Sharp (@jadesharp1992) reported

    @MrAlexRamzan @virginmedia it is awful, i had these problems in march. it took me days to get through, will never go with them again!

  • chiefmackers Paul McClure (@chiefmackers) reported

    @virginmedia Lol I’m basically on a first name basis with the installations team at this point. I’ve more contact with them than my own family. They’re not any help. They just blame the outside works people..but won’t give me their contact details so I can speed this up myself.

  • jamiegreee Jamie Green (@jamiegreee) reported

    When I try to leave @virginmedia it's almost impossible. Wait 45 mins on hold (they hang up when you say you want to leave) or write a letter (!) When I eventually do manage to leave, they phone me 5 times in one day. 🤔

  • chiefmackers Paul McClure (@chiefmackers) reported

    @GibsonPaddy @virginmedia @SkyUK That’s who I left. Only problem was the slow internet & was paying them £117pm. Virgin was 85 but 3 months later and I’ve had no internet. Should have stayed with Sky tbh mate. The virgin call centres are horrribleeee too. Line is bad & they’re zero help.

  • Shad0wQu33n Holly Lomax (@Shad0wQu33n) reported

    @virginmedia my wifi has been down for 19 hours and the service centre isn’t working online

  • asdhillon86 amardeep dhillon (@asdhillon86) reported
