  • Jessybell1988 Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I hope so. The extremely patronising and rude person I spoke to yesterday in an abroad call centre told me there was no complaints department and he couldn’t do anything at all until I paid the bill.

  • nathanspackman Nathan Spackman (@nathanspackman) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia been trying to cancel my order with you, but can't get through to everyone. The number your customer service team gave doesn't work! What number do I need to cancel?

    @virginmedia On the phone to a agent now told I’ve turned the box off and on multiple times still not working

  • KerryMordey Kerry Mordey (@KerryMordey) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    .@virginmedia we have had NO service for 2 days & our IT provider says it’s because construction workers have cut through your lines. Is this correct & if so, when do you anticipate this will be rectified please?

  • hugemassiff Simon Hughes (@hugemassiff) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia hey there Virgin. Our V6 box packed in last night and we were promised a technician call before 10am today. No call & tried to ring back with no joy - still waiting ! Help please

    @virginmedia I’ve called 08454541111 several times and can’t get through to anyone in a UK call centre who can help. Please can I have a direct number for a UK call centre for complaints or cancellation department immediately? This has been going on months! I am very stressed and very annoyed

  • Jessybell1988 Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia We tried the chat option and after going through security questions got redirected to another department which was then closed and the chat ended 😡 I have sent an email complaint on your website. Appalling service and communication from day one.

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

    @virginmedia Your WiFi keeps dropping out and disconnecting. Are there issues in the Cardiff area?

  • Chloe_coy_ Chloe coy (@Chloe_coy_) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia @Chloe_Co It’s an issue within the house apparently. The flat above had perfect internet. We have had nothing and no call back!!

  • RupaliaSunny Sunny Rupalia (@RupaliaSunny) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia have the worse broad band service....customer service is a shambles and all.

  • Jessybell1988 Jessica Venn (@Jessybell1988) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I have literally had enough of your appalling service!! I’ve been sent a text to call you on 0800 052 2170 and there’s no option to even speak to a human?! I refuse to spend another hour on the phone trying to sort my account! Can you please direct me to an human?

  • dobbo79 sarah dobson (@dobbo79) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia my WiFi is down AGAIN, come on, this is stupid now!!

  • Chloe_coy_ Chloe coy (@Chloe_coy_) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia @Chloe_Co I have checked the service status and it’s showing no faults but we have only a few minutes of connection before it goes off!

  • wenglishpaul Paul Scanlon 🏃‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏃🎖 (@wenglishpaul) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Well after 20 years of being a loyal @skytv customer its time to leave. They have taken my custom for granted expecting me to accept poor customer service well I won't & I'm not. @skytv loss is very much @virginmedia gain.

    @virginmedia Virgin media is all front , it has the very worst customer service of any organisation, be very careful when choosing Virgin as if anything goes wrong they don’t care !!

  • JohnPaulBruce1 John (@JohnPaulBruce1) reported

    @virginmedia @MartinSLewis @joelycett Any help with dealing with these fraudsters?

  • MyPainfulLife12 Me (@MyPainfulLife12) reported

    @virginmedia Rang yesterday to cancel TV, internet & phone! The bloke what an utter bully! Woke up today to an email saying we have upgraded rang up and the idiot only cancelled the internet! Rang today and the person could barely speak English will call Monday to cancel it all!

  • kjdintown K Driver (@kjdintown) reported

    @virginmedia No. I would appreciate your help.

  • johnboyjm John Middleton (@johnboyjm) reported

    @virginmedia why does your broadband keep going down it’s crap it works then don’t then does what’s going on

  • StevenFawcett_ Steven Fawcett |  | Without GP | (@StevenFawcett_) reported

    @virginmedia I never mentioned a POD in this tweet 🤔 I am more concerned with how you make it virtually impossible for me to either reduce my services with you or cancel them altogether, you designed a system that doesn't allow customers to just cancel @Ofcom should be ashamed.

  • StevenFawcett_ Steven Fawcett |  | Without GP | (@StevenFawcett_) reported

    @virginmedia It isn't my WIFI pod, the one I ordered in 2019 never turned up and VM ignored me, the current WIFI pod apparently heading to my home was ordered by VM in an attempt to appease my official complaint with regards to breaching the equality act 2010. It is that I want to address.

  • StGeorge_Abroad Wandering Marine 1664 (@StGeorge_Abroad) reported

    .@virginmedia been on hold 24 mins yesterday and cut off! 25 mins today and cut off…. FINALLY GOT THROUGH after nearly half an hour….and then couldn’t help. I’m trying to end my contract because of house move, guessing the reason why, but will I come back???? #CustomerService

  • ge04pp7e ge04pp (@ge04pp7e) reported

    @virginmedia I've tried calling from my Virgin media phone line and waited 20, then 32 minutes before giving up. Not good is it ‽ Your website is broken and goes in circles .

  • chriscresswell chris cresswell (@chriscresswell) reported

    @virginmedia well i'm not inclined to discuss my problems on a public forum so maybe it might be worth you providing a private message box rather than this PR emollient
