    Trying to get through to @virginmedia for an hour, only to then be cut off once being transferred! Poor show! Desperate to speak to someone as we have had our cables cut by resurfacing works!! 😡😡

  • IanRawlings2 Ian Rawlings (@IanRawlings2) reported from Newport, Wales

    Got to love @virginmedia, having spent 1 hour 15 minutes on the phone waiting to speak to someone in their technical service, finally get through to be told they close in 15 minutes nothing they can do 😳 on the WiFi black spots better off getting something from Amazon 🤬🤯

  • davidtoliver David Oliver (@davidtoliver) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia What’s your customer service telephone number? Can’t find one anywhere. Don’t want a “Message Bot” - I want a human to sort out our problem. Wife’s a GP trying to provide patient care from home -can’t because of broadband problems. Don’t tell me to reset the router!!

  • bert33uk bert33uk (@bert33uk) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bluebirdchapo @WezTucker @virginmedia Don’t try Bt worst in the world for internet I’ve had it twice when I moved. Internet wouldn’t pull your hat off absolute shite they actually gave me compensation. plus all these newish companies offering great deals are shite as they all use Bt lines.

  • simmo_phillips Simon Phillips (@simmo_phillips) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia worst company in the world! Still won’t cancel my contract and charging me! In the hands of Citizens advice now and then the Police!

  • James76clark James Clark (@James76clark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Having text the number you gave me, they referred me back to the technical phone number as they cannot help! So, let’s get back on the phone for the 3rd hour, in the hope I don’t get cut off, again! #shambles
