  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Nice going, @virginmedia - called to check how my complaint and SAR are progressing as they were requested on Thursday and I didn’t get the same day call back promised by the TM. Called back today to find 1. Complaint not set up. 2. SAR not submitted. AND....

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Both wired and not, advised to turn off and back on, diagnostics checked at your end, engineer visit, resulted in all new v6 boxes (x2) and a new internet hub also internal wiring checked and re-connected. Issue seemed to be resolved for a while but after then goes off altogether

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Actually, I’m done. Issues resolved but if this is how good your customer service journey gets, I’m cancelling my services.

  • adamxgardner Adam Gardner⚡ (@adamxgardner) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia Virgin ID’s. In the area due to problems with the network, changed over fittings to cables to outside box and internal cables now my internet doesn’t work. Need this sorted immediately.

  • adamxgardner Adam Gardner⚡ (@adamxgardner) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia It says there are no known issues with my broadband

  • wingnut1927 Mark Letman (@wingnut1927) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Done all this and your automated telephone support even diagnosed a fault and restarted the router.

  • Chasmeister Chas D (@Chasmeister) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @HeyRachieface @virginmedia It really is piss poor. I even get tv interference thrown in for good measure 😒

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Business... Was told before our forced upgrade because we had been with you for years... we were out of contract so you dodnt have to honour anything.. we upgrade.. still shit

  • adamxgardner Adam Gardner⚡ (@adamxgardner) reported from Llanyrafon, Wales

    @virginmedia why have you sent two random people to my street today, cold call and come in my property due to internet issues and NOW MY INTERNET DOESNT WORK. WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING AT.

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia 20 minutes waiting to escalate a complaint that wasn’t even set up just to get talked over and cut off. No basic understanding of GDPR it seems as my SAR wasn’t actioned.

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia We had a 6 day internet outage at the end of July. I’ve just got the bill for next month and there are no credits on it to account for the outage - we’re still being charged the same amount.

  • K_J_Wheeler kevin wheeler (@K_J_Wheeler) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    Credit where it is due, had outstanding customer service from @Screwfix @SkyUK and @virginmedia this weekend.

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • Resumekicks RÉSUMÉ PROJECTS UK (@Resumekicks) reported

    @virginmedia I’m still unable to access my account. I have tried calling the customer service but seems they are very busy at the moment.

  • jaymaho jason mahoney (@jaymaho) reported

    @virginmedia FIVE months without broadband, tv or phone. No services at all for the whole period. Absolute appalling customer service throughout. Hundreds of calls made - hours, days, weeks of my time. Was repeatedly promised automatic compensation under. Now guess what??🤬

  • aliye263 ♥Sexy Gal♥ (@aliye263) reported

    @virginmedia It’s the payment method not the logging in . I’m calling back the retentions team now as it’s just a joke that since the 22/05/22 I’m still dealing with the same issue that nobody is rectifying. I have literally had enough.

  • ashgoldy Ash (@ashgoldy) reported

    @virginmedia I cancelled within the 60 day period where the cancellation would not include an 'early exit fee'. Talked to 2 different people and was assured my contract would cancel when it was due to expire on June 18th (it was an 18mth contract). Unhappy to say the least.

  • GeekJoshJohnson This is a local country, for local people! (@GeekJoshJohnson) reported

    @virginmedia Still broken? This is getting silly now.

  • katyarose47 three raccoons in a trench coat (@katyarose47) reported

    @virginmedia I’m still getting constant calls from your sales team despite not having an account with you for 6 years now. I’ve told them this multiple times but I’m still being called. How can I talk to someone about this? I can’t login to your website because I’m not a customer

  • Br0x2aL15t Al-Brutali (@Br0x2aL15t) reported

    So my broadband contract is up for renewal in November. I’m with Virgin Media. They’re good, tbh. Stable l, fast service. I’m going to cancel my home internet and see what SIM only deals I can get from them. (Currently on 10GB, unlimited calls and texts included in package).

  • lizzieo88 Elizabeth Oxendale (@lizzieo88) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks but I have had multiple private chats with your companys complaints whatsapp, which has taken hours of my time and resulted in nothing except for being told a pack of lies. I just want this fixed. Also your complaints team always say they are from billing and can’t help

  • toontilley Mark Tilley (@toontilley) reported

    @virginmedia Yes said something about a drop cable, I have registered a complaint on what's app now and have a c number I've been told 1pm today for site visit then I'm told 7pm it's so frustrating

  • jaymaho jason mahoney (@jaymaho) reported

    @virginmedia No. Nobody can give answers. Worst customer service I have ever experienced. 5 month nightmare and no apology or compensation @Ofcom
