  • rancid_insane rancid insane 🤪 (@rancid_insane) reported from Newport, Wales

    So @virginmedia sat an hour in help chat waiting for reply regarding my issue/query of my broadband After an hour I guess you wasn't interested in helping me out. To me shows a totally lack of respect to a loyal customer with full package 🤬 Could you provide a CS number

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

    @virginmedia broadband was down in night. Says it’s fixed but I have no wifi though when I run a test after switching off router I’m told there’s nothing wrong. Postcode is CF631ET

  • iantosh4 Ian McIntosh (@iantosh4) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia Very frustrating as seem to just go around in circles with the same issues! Could you arrange for someone to call 2mo to discuss and resolve please (Save me calling and waiting again)

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

    @virginmedia I’ve said this more than once before on here and I’ll say it again. VM broadband is crap!! Their Wi-fi is shi., keeps cutting out yet they promise it is better and stronger. Don’t believe it!! The old router was far better than this rubbish!!!

  • 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

  • SilverwoodVS Dr Victoria Silverwood (@SilverwoodVS) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @JackoGaz @virginmedia It’s down over the whole city. I broke it out of sheer frustration watching that drivel and spent the third period cooking vegetables rather than continue watching. That’s how serious it was 🥬🥒🥕🥦

  • kristianbrimble Kristian Brimble (@kristianbrimble) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    After calling Linksys, it was 45 mins on the phone with @virginmedia with the agent arguing with me that they can’t help with my hub if it’s in modem mode only for them to pass it on to someone else who changes a setting and asks me to reset. 30 wait for results now.

  • sandraburnett3 sandra burnett (@sandraburnett3) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • CharlBalcombe Charlie Balcombe (@CharlBalcombe) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Not sure who we’ve been speaking to for the last day. But they’ve been the most helpful member of staff we’ve had contact with over the last five months. Has not only helped me fix the problem, answered any questions, but is taking my formal complaint further for us.

  • leohawkins123 Leigh Hawkins (@leohawkins123) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Still another 12 min and nothing time to cancel I think😡@virginmedia

    @virginmedia Thing is, this was an issue with virgin wifi service used at Premier inn, how do I check my account for that? I’m not a VM broadband customer

  • Johnboyowls john (@Johnboyowls) reported

    @virginmedia It’s my second box in the conservatory, it’s saying not connected to media service, I’ve tried everything turning it off from the plug everything it’s says to do on your website but still nothing, I’ve tried ringing but no answer, this is now 4 weeks without it, can you help.

  • Richardson28 Richie (@Richardson28) reported

    @virginmedia done everything possible, spoke to the silly Virgin Bot that insisted my details were wrong also, even though i was logged in and taken my details right off the site. I'm on a rolling month to month contract so i think i will just cancel and find slower but more reliable provider

  • rmills599 RICHARD MILLS (@rmills599) reported

    @virginmedia I was told it was an error and would be sorted, been given 3 times that would be sorted by, last one was last Saturday. Was told there was an outage in my area at one point, but neighbours with VM are ok with same channels. was given a text no as well but that got ignored.

  • theruckuz Ruckuz (@theruckuz) reported

    @virginmedia When I call. They send a text message. How do you actually speak to a human? Your A.I isn't good enough to understand issues like this

  • LeonidasOxford Leonidas 🎃Nightmares in Nike Airs OUT NOW👟 (@LeonidasOxford) reported

    @virginmedia @VMSolutions_ has the most embarrassing internet service not only do they promise the world and charge a Bomb but they hardly ever work (definitely not to the standard I pay for) and then expect me to sit on hold for 1hour 17 minutes!!! WTAF! 🤬🤬🤬
