    @virginmedia I have an issue with some of my emails being returned undelivered and saying they are spam. This is causing me an issue. Can you help?

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

  • 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.

    @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

  • stfcjoner1986
    Moseph Mellars (@stfcjoner1986) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Hi @virginmedia can I please have some assistance? Thw WiFi keeps dropping out since yesterday. I am WFH so this is causing lots of problems. I have contacted you via live chat but I am getting no reply after answering sec questions. I am based in Splott, Cardiff.

  • 3_monk
    Monkenstien. (@3_monk) reported from Beechwood, Wales

    @virginmedia I get your bills, that is how I realised as a loyal customer I am paying £40 plus a month for Internet access only. Fortunately for me and not for you BT Openreach have been installing fibre to home allowing me greater negotiating power as tou have no respect for loyalty.

  • 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!!!

  • NobbyD27
    Rob Downer (@NobbyD27) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @syeporter180 @virginmedia Cancel the contract and go to Sky

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

    @virginmedia But the team is impossible to contact!!! And when you do get in contact it’s always someone else’s problem, ‘oh I’ll just pass you onto my colleague’ etc. I’ve WhatsApped the help number too and been told it’s a long wait and told I can ‘get on with [my] day’ - absolute joke.

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

    @virginmedia you SUCK, you have NO CUSTOMER service at all. Employ more staff and start to provide a service we are paying for RUBBISH SERVICE perhaps we need to move to @skytv !!!!

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

    @virginmedia Here we go again. No TV service and the service webpage is down……sighs…..

  • 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.

    Internet not working, virgin media service status page not working @virginmedia shall I assume it's not fricking working and it might be repaired this century

  • welshcuriosity
    Jordan (@welshcuriosity) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Upgrading to gigabit broadband meant getting a new router from VirginMedia, so took the opportunity to tidy up and remove old cabling and extension leads. Didn't realise just how much unused crap I still had plugged in/taking up space

  • SewScandalous
    Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia Imagine being a customer service agent and not having a clue how to do your job hahaha! 🙄

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

    @virginmedia On hard wired, approx 250mbs out of 350mbs. It’s a hub 4 with new connectors added and bits of cable, but again I’m having to call support to see why our intellipods aren’t working.

  • RedhillsAnnie
    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.

    Misleading email @virginmedia saying I can watch Champions League Final for free. Seems I can’t. Now my son is in tears and he thinks I’m a terrible Dad.

  • unknownkd99
    KD (@unknownkd99) reported

    @virginmedia Any reason an engineer hadn't managed to fix our internet issue and instead delayed the fix estimate twice now leaving us without internet for 2 weeks and trying to charge us £700 to leave when your not providing your service?

  • DavidVaughan5
    Wirtz machine (@DavidVaughan5) reported

    @virginmedia Its ok I've managed to fix the issue, it was down to low frequency. Thanks its all sorted now.

  • HBG_CLEVER
    Humans Being Clever (@HBG_CLEVER) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve now been told SEVEN times that an incorrect final bill charge would be removed, yet it’s still showing and I’m still chasing. Account no. 223578504. Please issue a corrected final bill and confirm no collections/credit impact, or I’ll contact the ombudsman

  • milesc2003

    @virginmedia An estimated fix time would be nice. Just getting a standard error message… would really like to know what the problem is please

  • melon_h
    Helen Rimmer @thekindbraveleader.bsky.social (@melon_h) reported

    So @virginmedia is down again, been down since yesterday morning. We know it will last until just before the point they have to pay compensation, they will offer no apology and they give no updates. Looking at switching ASAP

    @PeteUK7 @virginmedia *******, the arguing bots love this post! I'm so sorry for your loss. Let rip on every company causing you distress x

    Pete 😷 #COVIDisAirborne (@PeteUK7) reported

    @ProfChocCaXe @virginmedia And you can't see that you have no self-awareness and that you're rude and seek to be hurtful. It pities me that you have no standards which is demonstrated by your interactions here and how totally unbecoming they are.
