  • sumz88 Craig Summerfield (@sumz88) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Going through the standard procedure of virgin media putting my bill up by 50%, awful service trying to discuss options and refusing to log my complaint when I’ve asked more than once @virginmedia I’m sick to death of this genuinely..#virginmedia #awfulservice

  • 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.

  • sumz88 Craig Summerfield (@sumz88) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    So many examples of virgin media’s poor service especially to existing customers #virginmedia @virginmedia #badcompany #noloyalty

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

    @vmbusiness @Forbes I'd just like our service to work ...

  • 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.

  • MarkBowhouse Mark Bowie (@MarkBowhouse) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia no internet in Cardiff and your website is down 👍

  • 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 😒

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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....

  • RhysThomas1991 Rhys 'Trev' Thomas (@RhysThomas1991) reported from Alway, Wales

    @virginmedia 20 minutes on hold and nobody picked up yet. All we want to do is cancel our broadband as you keep raising the price #jokers @richardbranson

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia I’ve just contacted your technical support and was put on hold for an hour and 3 minutes and then you cut me off. Fuming!! 😡😡

  • morganlowry3 Morgan Lowry (@morganlowry3) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia Our tele has no signal, had problems with it for a few weeks. Some channels just have an error message of ‘no signal’ and others are pixelated so badly that you can’t see the programme at all 😩

  • joereecedrums Joe Reece (@joereecedrums) reported

    @virginmedia Hey! Just received my new phone from VM but was told to contact customer care as I wish to change my number and get a new one, can you advise!?

  • VitiligoFanatic Vit (@VitiligoFanatic) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I did. No issues in my area and I have done all the restarting procedures. Still no luck in connecting to the internet.

  • eddieobrien71 Eddie O'Brien (@eddieobrien71) reported

    @virginmedia Sick and tired of calling your service team to just do the same thing and never resolve the issue

  • Hpsaucy515 Helen Peers (was Partridge) (@Hpsaucy515) reported

    @virginmedia LE3 area but we can be anywhere and we have poor coverage. Was fine until you merged with O2 x

  • DonaldMcNicol Donald McNicol (@DonaldMcNicol) reported

    @VirginMediaCorp Virgin Media are emailing me contract details for one of your customers, obviously got the wrong email address. Can you DM me for the details to correct this please. Or provide me with a contact support email address to provide the details.

  • Rosieleth32 Rosie Lethbridge (@Rosieleth32) reported

    @virginmedia Oh no indeed. Many times and we are still no closer to a resolution, just another date added that we are mean to sit and wait for... anything you/the team can do because this is beyond ridiculous. I thought a new customer would be treated as royalty to win their business!

  • Mat_Jam_Ca Matthew (@Mat_Jam_Ca) reported

    @virginmedia No. According to the service status, there is nothing wrong, but an engineer who visited yesterday confirmed that there is no power in the cable between our house and the cabinet. Another engineer was supposedly prioritised to come to us today to fix it, but hasn’t shown up. 😡

  • Mat_Jam_Ca Matthew (@Mat_Jam_Ca) reported

    @PaulHos93404413 @virginmedia I’d cancel. Had a total loss of service since 11:30pm on Wednesday night. Engineer due to attend today between 8am-1pm and they haven’t shown. Trying to phone them is a joke. Complete and utter crap customer service. Worst I’ve experienced.

  • _munimula_ Damian Howe (@_munimula_) reported

    @nonangrybiker @virginmedia Yep, that's why i left to go to Sky. They are only new customer focused. Shame as their broadband is better speed

  • andykb999 andy blythe (@andykb999) reported

    @virginmedia Some context would help to set expectations rather than faceless time changes … can you correct the services affected please
