    @virginmedia Screw you. Only me dying bothers anyone, literally anyone, it's always impossible to help me until people understand that I will kill myself. You're no better than them. See you in 2 weeks or not "AB".

  • Dazc090861
    Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia In Dec, you sent an email thanking me for making changes & what I'd get from now on & it'd cost over twice as much as I was paying. I never asked for any changes & in one of the many, calls I've made, I was told that your Oomph bundle department had shut around the same time.

    Noga Fett (@darth_noga) reported from Barry, Wales

    Absolutely shocking service from @virginmedia a 47% price increase for a customer of over 25 years and would rather lose a customer than give us a deal that new customers get. @BTCare @SkyHelpTeam can you do any better?

    @virginmedia Yeah have already called. Reports no service issues in my location despite online reporting intermittent issues this morning. Ability to book an engineer has disappeared. Help appreciated - now over 24h without connection

  • Mento56
    Mento5 (TAFKAB) (@Mento56) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @DwyKev @virginmedia Their appalling customer service was the one thing that made me decide to stick with Plusnet rather than switch to them, despite a very attractive offer.

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

    @syeporter180 @virginmedia I’m on virgin and it’s not that great Sye, I was going to sky before I renewed but had the same problem as you because I’d of had to wait months for BT to install a cable so just stuck to the devil I know in the end

  • ChrisSwinglis
    Dr Chris Inglis (@ChrisSwinglis) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @GillibrandPeter Virgin Media are - by a significant margin - the worst company I've ever had the displeasure of having to deal with. I literally don't think there's anything in the world that could ever convince me to go back to them.

  • mantha_1976
    Sam Sims (@mantha_1976) reported from Newport, Wales

    hey @virginmedia I have a contract that says my price is set to Jan 2023 and I negotiated the deal with customer retention as not the account holder bit authorised to talk on behalf of the account holder and now I've got customer services flat out lying toe on WhatsApp (1)

  • lou_dare
    Louise Dare (@lou_dare) reported from Ringland, Wales

    @virginmedia we are having issues NP19 we’ve rebooted and checked wires.. been on and off now for few weeks. What’s going on please ??

  • fredljones_
    Fred Jones (@fredljones_) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia online chat not working, on hold for hours and not responding on WhatsApp?! How do I get hold of you to cancel my service ffs...

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

    @virginmedia Can I just ask why it is that you can respond within minutes on social media (where the public can see your actions) but then in private you are ignoring your customers and taking three weeks to deal with issues? If you have agents manning twitter why can’t you pick up the phone?

  • andylance1977
    andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    Properly for the best part of a yr doesn't seem a problem to yourselves but your quite happy to take out monthly payment for a service we're paying for but you're not providing & seem to be in no hurry to provide it. Disgraceful service @virginmedia

  • 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.

  • FindlayEquality
    Graham Findlay FRSA 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇪🇺 (@FindlayEquality) reported from Cathays, Wales

    @rwilliams1947 @virginmedia It seems VM are also messing up landlines too. They now need to connect the phone cable to the Wi-Fi hub . Which means lots of trouble in my house and many other properties across the UK. And good luck with trying to discontinue their contract - they make it very difficult.

    @virginmedia I don’t have sky sports as part of my package with you but have been able to watch it since Saturday. Is this part of the same issue?

    Imtie 🇬🇧🇵🇰 (@imtiazs12564287) reported

    @Sargy7 @SkyUK Big companies know system loopholes and getting benefits from those system . Same situation is with Virgin media B-road band trap . Prices and services are at their disposal which they never invested upon . Absolutely unregulated .

  • ScarlettShaw
    Scarlett Shaw (@ScarlettShaw) reported

    Do yourself a favour. DO NOT use the one touch switch service with @SkyUK or @virginmedia. Still paying for both for weeks. Virgin continues to bill me despite me having sent back their equipment. The whole thing is a con. Be warned. @Ofcom

  • Harding85Jh
    James Harding (@Harding85Jh) reported

    @virginmedia Again @virginmedia still hasn't fixed the problem regarding red button what a shambles

    @elliviant £32 for 500mb down/up with Virgin Media , they tried making me pay £60 a month , rang them up and told them i was leaving and they put the price down for 3 years

  • swindon124759
    Swindon! (@swindon124759) reported

    @virginmedia when is the issue with sky sports plus due to be fixed? It’s been going on for ages now and I would like to know a fix date please. Thanks.

  • septembercott
    Philip Drury (@septembercott) reported

    Now I see why Virgin Media is scored so badly for customer service. They ask you to DM, which takes you to a useless Chat Bot! Pointless @virginmedia

  • DarylCatpiss
    Mr Daryl T Catpiss (@DarylCatpiss) reported

    @virginmedia @TheAFC0522 Yeah what if I want to watch them on my big TV that I bought to watch my virgin media service on?

  • HannahJM1806
    HJM (@HannahJM1806) reported

    @virginmedia @alexand979677 Yay, let’s all mess about trying to sign in to the app on your laptop, to find a HDMI cable, plugging that bugger in and then hoping to all things holy that it actually connects whilst missing the first half of the game you’re trying to watch as opposed to Virgin actually fix it!

  • Chris4RAFC
    Chris4RAFC (@Chris4RAFC) reported

    @Smallworth_xx @virginmedia my son had the same problem but lucky he went to the Wycombe match on Saturday but tonight had to watch it via the sky sports app as he is with Virgin too, luckily I am with sky and could watch my team Saturday on the red button and i watched a game tonight and no issues
