    @virginmedia I dunno mate, that's why I tried to call you lot. You can't help, so don't worry about it. Another weekend without TV and internet, waiting for your engineer to turn up. Another complaint. Another refund.

  • Carl_E88 This is Carl🏳️‍🌈😺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🍕 (@Carl_E88) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia any chance of supporting existing customers, currently paying £32 a month but your offering new customers 25 a month. Helpline said nothing I can do as existing customer.

  • cherylockerby cheryl (@cherylockerby) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia I have a TiVo box but my tv screen keeps pixelating. It is not restricted to 1 channel. I have turned the box off at the plug but it has made no difference. Can you help?

  • macauc01 Christina Macaulay (@macauc01) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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

  • MaartenSleeckx MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @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".

  • thelee_x_w lee williams (@thelee_x_w) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Word of warning avoid @virginmedia 4 wifi like the plague. I rarely get even 20% of advertised speeds & the CS team are next 2 useless. Paying 4 daily disappointment that upsets the kids. Will never go back 2 them ever. Worst service I ave ever received @EE was so much better

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia You really aren’t reading the messages, I’ve now told 3 different channels of my mothers death, I’ve called bereavement line to be hung up on, then closed early. I want a complaint raised, @Ofcom can you help?

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

    @syeporter180 @virginmedia Cancel the contract and go to Sky

  • 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.

  • benj8min Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Another day in the life of a @virginmedia customer. TV showing fault. Ran online diagnostics, didn't fix. Site says to call. Call. Go through menu, TV, fault... sends me a text with a link to online diagnostics, says "thanks for calling" and hangs up. Worst. Company. Ever.

  • MaartenSleeckx MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia Clearly not as the issue keeps coming back after multiple engineer fixes outside AND in my home. You're lying through your teeth and leaving me in the dark literally. Stop hiding behind "standard business" replies, be human and help me.

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

    @virginmedia why does it seem impossible to sort my TV and WiFi out? My partner has been phoning up on and off for a year or more about poor signal, not being able to use catch and apps and general poor service. Just get fobbed off.] Is this how you treat all customers?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • amandaroberts10 amanda roberts (@amandaroberts10) reported from Cardiff, Wales

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

  • GillibrandPeter Peter Gillibrand (@GillibrandPeter) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia any help? Seems a bit excessive if you’re citing inflation… a little bit of transparency may help…!

  • gareth_thmpsn Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Your company is awful. I’ve called today waited 10min to the worst hold music only to be cut off. Call back to be told your closed now then state you are open between 9-6. Why are you deliberately obstructive?

  • CharlieLouJones Charlotte Jones (@CharlieLouJones) reported

    @virginmedia you have sent me an incorrect bill after changing my plan over a month ago. I've called you four times to get this corrected and in the latest bizarre customer experience I was forwarded to O2, who for obvious reasons can't help with my Virgin Media bill.

  • whatdontiknow ssa (@whatdontiknow) reported

    @virginmedia why is your guys internet so bloody AWFUL?! Everyday I have an issue and considering I pay £50 a month just for internet - I at least expect it to WORK! Even your engineer mentioned you have changed something and it’s gone worse! Definitely moving to @SkyHelpTeam

  • simonnread simon read (@simonnread) reported

    Hey @virginmedia today's fault is that the wi-fi has been down for hours. I've tried turning it on and off again several times to no avail. Have you any information about when it may return?

  • CCFCJamz Jamie (@CCFCJamz) reported

    @virginmedia is there an issue with tv in the CF11 area? Trying to put it on but it saying i’m not subscribed and that there is a problem with my account?

  • XSARA_ XSARA 🇬🇧 🇪🇬 🇸🇪 (@XSARA_) reported

    @virginmedia Yes and I still have no Internet installed. They said the earliest date is the 24th August, I moved on the 22nd July. HORRENDOUS service

  • nefertaya SammyJ (@nefertaya) reported

    @virginmedia I was looking for support in amending my current package now that I am out of contract. I'd like to discuss the options available

  • ClareAdams 🇺🇦 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 Клер Адамс 🌻🌻🌻🌻 (@ClareAdams) reported

    Anyone else with @virginmedia Virgin Broadband problem.

  • Grant429 Grant Stokes (@Grant429) reported

    @virginmedia I did try using my phone via the app to get to the website but still had the same issue

  • BoneyBlade Mark Akers (@BoneyBlade) reported

    @virginmedia I only talked about fixing my phone.... I've just looked online and it looks like you have me signed up to a new 18th contract, I definitely did not agree to this... My account details are 72161440 Area 31... If I have to phone again it will be to cancel.

  • saitejakatti saiteja (@saitejakatti) reported

    @virginmedia The light on the hub always shows amber and it has some intermittent buzzing noise also the wifi keeps disconnecting several times while sitting right next to the router and if i move off from the place the wifi gets disconnected. I have called support but was of no use.Needhelp
