    @virginmedia internet has gone down and the website is also down so can’t check if it is an issue in the area or not

    You @virginmedia have the ABSOLUTE WORST telephone system I have ever wncountered. I’m trying to sort out an alleged unpaid bill (it bloody well isn’t an unpaid bill btw it’s incompetence on your behalf meaning I got billed well AFTER cancelling back in March 2020)

  • djleekee
    Lee Smith/DJ Leekee (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I think it was more a BBC source issue rather than VM wide. The lip sync is just every so slightly out but seemed very put on strictly last night

  • gillih
    Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England

    @virginmedia I have got this sorted with your team now. Helpful person. But I suggest changing your auto system to give callers an idea of wait time. Better customer service.

    @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.

    @virginmedia Having serious disconnection issues with my WiFi (CF24) - is there anything that can be done? Can you help? WFH this week has been painful

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

    @virginmedia calling takes too long, always on hold for over an hour, and they never deal with the problem, the person on WhatsApp actually dealt with it which is why I was wanting to carry on using WhatsApp?!

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

    @virginmedia Tips please to get my email outbox going after changing password. Due to a hack. Outgoing not working!!!

  • 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.

  • andylance1977
    andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia It works intermittently. This has been discussed over a series of phone calls through 12 months. A booster box has been sent too and its still poor. We're paying for a service we can't use when we want to. The TV box is next to the WiFi box downstairs & is still poor.

  • welshcuriosity
    Jordan (@welshcuriosity) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Upgrading to gigabit broadband meant getting a new router from VirginMedia, so took the opportunity to tidy up and remove old cabling and extension leads. Didn't realise just how much unused crap I still had plugged in/taking up space

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

    @virginmedia Now I have a problem with the DNS not working. Called 150 and ended up with a text with a link to where I started. Really, really frustrating. Please help.

  • orangethunder_
    Nathan Rhys George (@orangethunder_) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I feel awful for the @virginmedia social media staff. Bosses - invest more in infrastructure to genuinely improve services and stop these poor people being treated like ****. Also, pay your taxes.

  • 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.

    @virginmedia could you please tell me how to activate WiFi calling on Sony Xperia 5 ii my wife has it I can see how to do it on O2 network but option not available on virgin handset?

    @virginmedia Hi our internet is going to be down for 2 days. I have a business acc with you with phone line will I be compensated for inconvenience? 😡

    @virginmedia Thanks but when I try to access emails via logging into MyVirginmedia it says my email account doesn’t exist. Will this still help?

  • rolandhesz
    Roland Hesz 🎸⛩️🏳️‍🌈 (@rolandhesz) reported

    Hey @virginmedia, is it correct that I am not allowed to read the contract before I sign up but I still have to tick the "I have read it..." checkbox to sign up? That's what your customer service agent is telling me now. I thought it was a broken link but I'm told otherwise.

    @VirginMediaIE @virginmedia your new 'work' is substandard, a coiled electrical line blowing around over my house striking other lines making abominable noise putting electric circuits out, not to mention the obscene euros u charge for not providing service. Cancel my account.
