  • sumz88 Craig Summerfield (@sumz88) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Going through the standard procedure of virgin media putting my bill up by 50%, awful service trying to discuss options and refusing to log my complaint when I’ve asked more than once @virginmedia I’m sick to death of this genuinely..#virginmedia #awfulservice

  • adamxgardner Adam Gardner⚡ (@adamxgardner) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia Virgin ID’s. In the area due to problems with the network, changed over fittings to cables to outside box and internal cables now my internet doesn’t work. Need this sorted immediately.

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Business... Was told before our forced upgrade because we had been with you for years... we were out of contract so you dodnt have to honour anything.. we upgrade.. still shit

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia 20 minutes waiting to escalate a complaint that wasn’t even set up just to get talked over and cut off. No basic understanding of GDPR it seems as my SAR wasn’t actioned.

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

    @leonclarance @virginmedia Wi-fi is completely crap!! Their new box is total Shite!!!

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Actually, I’m done. Issues resolved but if this is how good your customer service journey gets, I’m cancelling my services.

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia We had a 6 day internet outage at the end of July. I’ve just got the bill for next month and there are no credits on it to account for the outage - we’re still being charged the same amount.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ToriBreshani tori.breshani (@ToriBreshani) reported

    @virginmedia I asked for transfer of ownership of my account to another family, but services were disconnected without the new service kicking in. No tv or internet to date.

  • bhaveshdevji Bhavesh 🤟🏼 (@bhaveshdevji) reported

    @virginmedia @Ofcom can you support. @virginmedia are unable to provide a solution. I have been told to wait and also pay full price for this ridiculous service. No actual resolution date.

  • debo99472573 debo (@debo99472573) reported

    @virginmedia I’m having issues with my Wi-fi. I urgently need it fixed- the Wi-fi box keeps turning off so I think I just need a new box. We are paying a lot of money for Wi-fi and working from home please help, I’m very worried about not being able to work!

  • trumpsquiff trumpocalypse (@trumpsquiff) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, and I have restarted my router and modem multiple times. Why do you prevent issues being logged online?

  • paulfp Paul Freeman-Powell 🇪🇺 (@paulfp) reported

    @mattsowt @ruskin147 @virginmedia Been with them since they were Telewest and I honestly wouldn't go with anyone else. But maybe their network up here in Liverpool is just better? Excellent service. (Wouldn't touch their mobile again with a bargepole but that's another thread...)

  • daxpwnsyouall daxpwnsyouall (@daxpwnsyouall) reported

    @DoubleDstroyer @virginmedia Never expect ANYTHING of this company unless you're on a business internet contract - They are a monopoly industry in telecomms and they don't give the slightest toss whatsoever about domestic customers for their internet services. Welcome to the UK - Worst in Europe for it.

  • B4DS1GN4L Aaron (@B4DS1GN4L) reported

    Are any of you with Virgin Media for Internet? Its completely down and their website is as well, so can't check if its just me. I wish I could change provider ergh

  • alexwhit3head_ ALEX (@alexwhit3head_) reported

    Another day without broadband or service thanks to the circus known as @virginmedia Idiots.

  • mattsowt Matt (@mattsowt) reported

    @ruskin147 @virginmedia Given the well documented issues and constant surveys showing how bad they are, it amazes me that even a single person chooses to use Virgin Media

  • FastEddie067 FastEddie67🍀 #justicefornoah @mynoah8 💙 (@FastEddie067) reported

    @virginmedia having problems with Internet. It rebooted and now is asking for login/authentication. Is the service down? Also can't use the website to check service status as it is having work done, can't even view or pay bills.
