    @virginmedia I was told to wait in this morning between 8am - 12pm for an engineer to fix my broadband. It's now 2pm and no sign of an engineer. I was told I'd be charged £25 if I missed the appointment. I think I should charge you for having to hang around for 6 hours waiting.

  • 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.

    Anybody else in Cardiff have reeeeeally slow and inconsistent internet these last couple of weeks? Trying to do anything involving the wifi - work or streaming - is so painful! @virginmedia #Cardiff

    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.

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

    @virginmedia another day another WiFi outage. This really is the worst WiFi I've ever had. Legally as you are not providing the service as promised am I allowed to cancel the contract ? @CitizensAdvice

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

    @virginmedia In Dec, you sent an email thanking me for making changes & what I'd get from now on & it'd cost over twice as much as I was paying. I never asked for any changes & in one of the many, calls I've made, I was told that your Oomph bundle department had shut around the same time.

  • SewScandalous
    Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, Wales

    Oh, looks like @virginmedia have disconnected my service 7 days before they were meant to 🙄 Absolute rubbish.

  • 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!!!

    amanda roberts (@amandaroberts10) reported from Cardiff, Wales

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

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

    @virginmedia Firstly a refund of £351 for the Mobile part of the Oomph bundle as it was stopped a couple of months after starting the contract..still not paid to me! The Media part..nothing has been done at all..no solution..just continual pestering to pay by debt collectors or cut service!

  • LaurenKetchley
    LK (@LaurenKetchley) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia @garyketchley Yes was told a manager would call us and it never happened …

    Fix my internet please, I don’t have the minerals for this tonight @virginmedia

  • damianKerlin
    damian Kerlin 🏳️‍🌈 (@damianKerlin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes, and it is a different issue every time. How, in a capital city, is this happening everyday, with your engineers unable to do anything to improve the situation. …and what about that refund, as we are paying for internet which we are not getting?

    C B (@Lulette5772) reported

    @virginmedia why is your app so useless, can’t do anything with it as any actions takes you to chat. You’re forced to chat/call VM for everything. My contract is ending, so had to call VM, a torturous experience. After 30minutes on hold achieved basically nothing. It’s so poor

  • BryanGr68681814
    Bryan Green (@BryanGr68681814) reported

    @no1lino @virginmedia Morning Glenn, just had a message from @virginmedia to say services in our area are down, should be fixed by 5pm!!!

  • DerekXMorriss79
    Derek Xavier Morriss (@DerekXMorriss79) reported

    @virginmedia any reason the WiFi signal keeps dropping out every 5 minutes or so? It really is appalling

  • fpl_goldenboys
    FPL Hornet (@fpl_goldenboys) reported

    @virginmedia Down every day this week, utter crap

  • laankaan
    kaan #freeimamoglu (@laankaan) reported

    @virginmedia how stupid is that to push an update to my router/hub in the middle of the ******* day? How the hell am I supposed to work without internet?

  • Oxford_Life
    In Oxford (@Oxford_Life) reported

    @virginmedia I would assume it will always show that info incorrectly since your site seems to be outdated and not taking account of the fact that with phone-via-router when your broadband is down so is your phone!

  • BrookesMarie
    Anne-Marie Evans (@BrookesMarie) reported

    @virginmedia please can someone contact me we have been on the phone for over an hour - give number for IT service to be told they don't deal with customers - given another number which is now out of use
