    @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.

    @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".

    @virginmedia as a former TV customer, now just broadband, I want to reconnect a TV package. I already have 3 boxes in my house can they not be just reconnected instead of sending my out a box?

  • 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?

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

    @virginmedia I do not want to be with you any more because you are doing my head in!!!! You have turned from being a very good company with good service to being the most disgusting people I have ever had the displeasure of coming in contact with!!!

    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

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

    @virginmedia It doesn't. No changes made. I had major problems setting this up, it went through someone in your complaints department and they had to do something manual to set the package I was on up. Clearly, even they are incapable. I've had TV for a few months, then it's just gone off.

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

    @virginmedia I phoned THREE weeks ago to cancel our contact, there was a dispute over a cancellation fee. A manager was supposed to call me back, I’ve rang 5 times since to check as heard nothing- each time was told ‘within 48hrs’. Move out next Friday, what am I supposed to do????

  • gazthebluebird1
    Gareth Jones (@gazthebluebird1) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I am unable to sign into my online account and trying to speak to anyone at your company its like trying to make contact with the moon, can you open up a DM conversation to help please?

  • f1blag
    F1blag (@f1blag) reported

    @MelJanie @virginmedia Virgin Media are up there for any worst customer service award! They took 3 weeks to restore our connection, promised us compensation (promises we were able to obtain a recording of), refused to pay that compensation and then fought us every step of the way. Dreadful.

  • s4m1rk23
    SK (@s4m1rk23) reported

    @james_bull8 DM me my brother works for Virgin media - he’ll put your whole package down guaranteed (internet + TV Package). Your getting scammed 😭😭

  • Rach_EL_1982
    Rach A (@Rach_EL_1982) reported

    Virgin media charging a loyal customer of 20 years £114 per month is a little bit of a joke when we have a speed test of 63 and new customers get 500 …. Sort it out virgin media

  • nimohally
    Nim O'Hall (@nimohally) reported

    @virginmedia your service is so bad that I can’t even call your customer service and when I do there’s acc no way to get pass that Cara thing to speak to a real live person !

    @virginmedia hi broadband down in D24 since last night any resolution time?

  • Irate_Jobbie
    Irate_Jobbie (@Irate_Jobbie) reported

    @AwTroon Many, many years ago, I called virgin media to tell them I was leaving. They asked why, I said you don't offer value for money anymore. Sorry you're leaving but that is the best price, you already have. It was expensive. No problem, bye now. Next day, virgin cold calls me. Asks me to confirm who I am. I said no, you are calling me, you should know. Guy was annoyed as he was phoning to offer me a better deal. I said fine, I'll call the same retentions team I called yesterday to leave and I'll know it's actually virgin. He got angry, said they can't offer discounts, only he could and if I didn't confirm my details, he couldn't give me the offer. I just told him I could no longer do business with virgin due to such poor security procedures. He seemed very angry about the fact I wasn't willing to give personal identifiable information to a stranger cold calling me. Never paid them a penny again.
