    @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?

    MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @virginmedia On hard wired, approx 250mbs out of 350mbs. It’s a hub 4 with new connectors added and bits of cable, but again I’m having to call support to see why our intellipods aren’t working.

    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.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia I did that this morning & the person said they were in complaints department..he said I needed to speak to retentions & a manager would call. He raised a complaint Ref:C160622488. Got a call this afternoon where the manager of customer services said there was nothing he could do.

    @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.

  • stfcjoner1986
    Moseph Mellars (@stfcjoner1986) reported from Cardiff, Wales

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

    @virginmedia I'm now waiting on a call from the retentions department (I missed one earlier)! I know exactly what they will say because I've spoken to them on a number of occasions...they will offer me a new contract & raise a complaint about the messing about you've given me!!!

    @virginmedia you ,mean the awful service you usually provide is even worse,,

  • 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…!

  • RedhillsAnnie
    Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Alleluia @virginmedia Just taken one month to have most issues resolved. Feedback: less silos in customer service so they can see all issues and be more helpful.

    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

    Shaun (@shauny67) reported

    @virginmedia @RobRollin2 If you have the 1gb they are free plus most WiFi issues are due to devices & not the service. Plus you can if want put in modem mode & use your own equipment

  • RyanStringer72
    Ryan Stringer (@RyanStringer72) reported

    @IamCarrieagain @virginmedia Cancel them. Go elsewhere. You shouldn't be paying for something your not getting. They are bullies. I don't understand why people pay for these services.

  • ShirleySarah70
    ShirleySarah🌹🎸🦊🦔🐦⚽ (@ShirleySarah70) reported

    What rude people they are @virginmedia Was on the phone, finally someone will collect the old modem. However, I will be cancelling my tv and landline services. Will keep VM broadband until such time as I can source a suitable alternative. Disconnection fee to pay.

  • bighandsmassuer
    marc (@bighandsmassuer) reported

    @virginmedia all I wanted was a new contract, after 16 years I thought it would be quite straight forward Oh no, the 3 customer service people I spoke to were useless Great way to run a business

  • IamCarrieagain
    Carrie (@IamCarrieagain) reported

    @virginmedia My issue is you turned off my working router. I'm disabled and you turned off my service.

  • GregoryRasputin
    Ivan Elmanov (@GregoryRasputin) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t have a problem returning it, I have a problem with your company threatening to charge me because I didn’t send the router back straight away, maybe give people more than two weeks to send it back before harassing them.

  • JoeAlderson1982
    Joe Alderson (@JoeAlderson1982) reported

    @B25Owl @jomickane @Benleo I've never had this and been with Virgin Media on and off for years. I have had a faulty router from them before though.

  • Andy_wxm
    Andy Jones (@Andy_wxm) reported

    @virginmedia Been a customer of yours for 2 months and my broadband keeps dropping out. Have switched off the hub and back on yet the broadband signal is still having the same problems

    @j0nfuzz @virginmedia Brsk knocked on the door the other month to say they now had service so we’ll likely go with them.
