  • niamunna1 Nige (@niamunna1) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia I'd rather you just responded to my complaint that I made 2 months ago.

  • MHswans Mike Houghton (@MHswans) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

  • lfmortgages lisafletchermortgages (@lfmortgages) reported from Barry, Wales

    Terrible service from #virginmedia for 3 months+. Spent hours on the phone for the goalposts to be moved again. Apparently if you are residential customer intermittent service in a 24 hour period is acceptable, even if that is 10 minutes Bye bye 🖐🏻🖐🏻#bonvoyage

  • katierobertson0 KatieRobertson (@katierobertson0) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Hi yes I am I just want to speak to someone to see if I need and engineer or if there is a problem in area seems impossible trying to speak to anyone. Thanks

  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    Can’t wait until our @virginmedia contract comes to an end the worst broadband product and with genuinely the worst customer service - avoid always

  • niamunna1 Nige (@niamunna1) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia If I dont have a response in 48 hours to my formal complaint made a month ago, I will be cancelling my service. Ref number is COM104057176.

    @virginmedia why have I been waiting over an hour for someone from your technical support to contact me on chat and chatting with your first line? #poorcustomerservice

    @virginmedia wifi’s down yet again!!! don’t pay money for your broadband just for it to be shut down all the time!

  • ItsLau_xo 🦋Laura 🦋 (@ItsLau_xo) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    So we pay over £100 a month for full @virginmedia package and fastest Internet going, but is it so so bad. It keeps cutting out all the time or going slow.

  • MayanTurner Mayan Turner (@MayanTurner) reported

    @virginmedia No one has been rude and I can’t fault each individual I have spoken with but the fact I must have spoken with your entire bloody call centre by now and not one of them can pass my details to the next department is the killer

    @virginmedia What has been a great relationship over the last four years has now been utterly destroyed by the service levels both equipmentwise and customer service wise

    @virginmedia Yes I saw this link in another tweet, and I can see the fault won't be fixed until 3pm ☹ I also phoned virgin who said the same, 3pm fix. At the end of the call he told me to have a wonderful day... that ain't happening I can't work today so no pay....

  • Nick_SO Nick D (@Nick_SO) reported

    @virginmedia I spoke to sales to discuss joining but then I had to attend a work call so asked the sales rep to call me back to confirm with me. She didn’t and I received a ‘welcome to virgin’ email. Now I can’t join as a new customer for a deal I actually want to agree on.

  • Sarpanch1971 KIRAN SINGH BIRK (@Sarpanch1971) reported

    @virginmedia OK managed to log in and in a queue? I thought this was a 1-to-1 chat? I don't wish to speak to any of the so called customer services team. I'd rather chat with you

  • LucarInvestment Lucar Investments (@LucarInvestment) reported

    @virginmedia It's an outstanding debt but the problem is the ceo office was dealing with it she said she would reduce package get the repairs done and give us since we moved the reduction plus loss of service, engineer called fixed the problem but no contact since. I've sent numerous emails
