    @virginmedia So myself or my wife has to spend our working day trying to get through to ypu just to be fobbed off to different departments and get no where 🙄🙄 customer service skills at best

  • 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.

  • djleekee Lee Smith 🌻 (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia The channel 4 one seems a bit flakey too. The opening sting on each service plays and then some ads but on both the programmes never play so I give up and use the smart TV apps instead. I've assumed it's a bandwidth issue but I suppose if ads are playing the progs should too.

  • MissAzzaB Ariane (@MissAzzaB) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    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

  • cymboi 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.

  • GarethLloyd18 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⚽️🏉Gareth Lloyd 🏉⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@GarethLloyd18) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia awful customer service

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

    @virginmedia can you tell me what has gone wrong with your company!?!? I have been with you for years, without complaint but, since Dec 21, you change my contract, without my say-so & despite constant calls for 6 months, still nobody will take responsibility & sort it out!!! 😠😠

  • 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?

  • mantha_1976 Sam Sims (@mantha_1976) reported from Newport, Wales

    hey @virginmedia I have a contract that says my price is set to Jan 2023 and I negotiated the deal with customer retention as not the account holder bit authorised to talk on behalf of the account holder and now I've got customer services flat out lying toe on WhatsApp (1)

  • 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!

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

    @virginmedia My original package wasn't due to end until July 22. I've spoken to every department you have, over & over again...I go over the same old explanation with your people every single time & still, nobody in your company will help...I've spoken to over 3 managers & still nothing!!

  • philscully 𝗣S. (@philscully) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia But im asking what would be different to the other times where ive just wasted hours of my day for nothing to change? We have called numerous times only to be told there is no problem or to reset. No other assitance is ever offered

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

    @virginmedia @Dionne96310374 We weren’t offered that when ours went down

  • Samanth82113398 Samantha (@Samanth82113398) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Hi can someone help me I'm trying to log in to my account but keeps saying there's a problem at your end

  • behnazakhgar Behnaz (@behnazakhgar) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I am trying to terminate the account. Its for my dad's house and need it done before the 3rd of March.

  • Welsh_Saint14 Ryan Davenport (@Welsh_Saint14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia My wife is currently on the phone to your customer service regarding this matter so hopefully it'll be resolved this evening, if not then a web chat from 4pm would be the best time for me

  • 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????

  • 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.

  • blue_murdock Ritch Zablan (@blue_murdock) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia … is there network cover problem here cardiff now?

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

    @virginmedia But the team is impossible to contact!!! And when you do get in contact it’s always someone else’s problem, ‘oh I’ll just pass you onto my colleague’ etc. I’ve WhatsApped the help number too and been told it’s a long wait and told I can ‘get on with [my] day’ - absolute joke.

    @virginmedia please check my account 510241102 for notes. today is a third day of calling n sorting my issues.

  • panzerfaust81 panzerfaust81 (@panzerfaust81) reported

    @virginmedia That is correct and that is also of little use to my business. If you required "security details" why was I not notified of this in advance? Seriously about to cancel. Its just not good enough.

  • StephenMcManus1 Stephen McManus (@StephenMcManus1) reported

    @RaPowell92 @virginmedia Yea a lot of people having problems!

  • IbanezXxx ibanez-XXX (@IbanezXxx) reported

    @SophieEB @virginmedia Eek - the worst company I’ve ever dealt with - bar none!!!! Would never ever use again for anything. 👐

  • roybannock Royston Bannock (@roybannock) reported

    @virginmedia what a joke! Complaints tab on your www says “page not found” and when you ring the number it says “no one available call back later goodbye” #legalracket DO NOT upgrade to Virgin Hub3 - not a massive house, black spots everywhere - no support. Classy

  • Mr_P_M_N Mr Peters (@Mr_P_M_N) reported

    @virginmedia worst service, unable to resolve an issue for over a month now that’s not my fault, which was affecting my credit score for the past year and I wasn’t aware and the best part is they don’t have a clue about it either.#virginmobile #virginmediadown

  • julidood Julie Smedley (@julidood) reported

    @virginmedia Can I please get some help. Customer service are not answering the phone, the message service is the same, we're still waiting for a response since 20:30 yesterday evening, nearly 22 hours, the chat box says 45 min wait!!

  • Petebales Pete Bales (@Petebales) reported

    @virginmedia Managed to speak to someone last night - requested the hub 4 - said no problem and it would be 3-5 days. Got a text today that it was arriving today which v impressed about. Opened it - it’s a hub 3 same as already have that doesn’t work properly!

  • fabsod fabs (@fabsod) reported

    @virginmedia I’m not asking for anything more than what I pay for, I’m not asking for any free service. So please, do your part as per our agreement: I pay you and you provide the broadband. It’s simple, straightforward @LifeInKilburn #broadband #virginmedia

  • Loverofcrisps crisp lover (@Loverofcrisps) reported

    @virginmedia Two hours trying to get to the team today, no joy. No text facility or chat facility, Terri triage bot tells you to download the app for a chat facility. The app doesn't have a chat facility, so my mum still has a broken box and an 8% bill rise, great service
