  • benj8min Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia With respect, your customer service advisors are useless. As is the technology for contacting them. As per my initial message. Last time I went through this I was booked a chat appointment by your twitter team with someone who specifically handled the complaint.

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

    @daisylnaughton @virginmedia Down for me too

  • Mento56 Mento5 (TAFKAB) (@Mento56) reported from Church Village, Wales

    @DwyKev @virginmedia Their appalling customer service was the one thing that made me decide to stick with Plusnet rather than switch to them, despite a very attractive offer.

  • BackOnTrack__ Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m fuming! We were lied to by their customer service , promised an engineer this an no one turned up now been told by customer service that we won’t have one until tomorrow #nithoodenough

  • welsh1lad Rob Weaver (@welsh1lad) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Define active, if you mean do I have Service’s no , do I still use my email account yes.

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

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

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

    Properly for the best part of a yr doesn't seem a problem to yourselves but your quite happy to take out monthly payment for a service we're paying for but you're not providing & seem to be in no hurry to provide it. Disgraceful service @virginmedia

  • NobbyD27 Rob Downer (@NobbyD27) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @syeporter180 @virginmedia I’m on virgin and it’s not that great Sye, I was going to sky before I renewed but had the same problem as you because I’d of had to wait months for BT to install a cable so just stuck to the devil I know in the end

  • benj8min Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia A laughable statement in all honesty you're known for terrible service, demonstrated by the line "Package changes". Who said package changes? I have a TV package, I signed up for, have a contract for and have been using since June. It's disappeared your end, I have the docs.

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

    Hi @virginmedia can I please have some assistance? Thw WiFi keeps dropping out since yesterday. I am WFH so this is causing lots of problems. I have contacted you via live chat but I am getting no reply after answering sec questions. I am based in Splott, Cardiff.

  • welsh1lad Rob Weaver (@welsh1lad) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Iv had my email account for 20 years + now with no issues till yesterday

  • GarethThwaite Gareth Thwaite (@GarethThwaite) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia can you please just admit you value new customers over 20yrs plus ones? @BT want to help a family out?

  • BackOnTrack__ Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia still waiting since 7.30 am for the engineer to come to sort out the problems we are having, he’s 25 minutes to get here ( we were given 7.30-13 slot) still no tv since Thursday!

  • fin_father Dave T (@fin_father) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @thewson72 @virginmedia Great when on. So much faster than anyone else. But useless service when it’s down.

  • 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

  • BackOnTrack__ Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia you absolutely SUCK! Sick to death of the poor service you are providing. No TV at all and having to wait 3 days fir a technician and yet you will still charge us, I’m FUMING!

  • jonny_ex9 Jonny Ex 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇬🇷 (@jonny_ex9) reported from Cardiff, Wales

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

  • benj8min Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia It doesn't. No changes made. I had major problems setting this up, it went through someone in your complaints department and they had to do something manual to set the package I was on up. Clearly, even they are incapable. I've had TV for a few months, then it's just gone off.

  • welsh1lad Rob Weaver (@welsh1lad) reported from Rhoose, Wales

    @virginmedia my email has stopped working , inc web mail . Rest pass also fails . Is there any issues ? Was working yesterday.

  • BackOnTrack__ Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Rather than patronise me just offer a good service snd get it sorted tomorrow.

  • MrJubbaloo Scott Stansfield (@MrJubbaloo) reported

    @virginmedia HOW CRAP IS YOUR SERVICE. Dial Up Speeds when I pay for Gaming package. No Live Chat even though it says Live chat and everything says its fine when it clearly isn't I have 1 way of staying in touch with friends and unwinding and you screw it up

    @virginmedia service status down for maintenance, no updates on the outage in Croydon. Shocking service

  • walitron88 walitron (@walitron88) reported

    When will an internet service provider have better speeds than #virginmedia? Their service is just appalling at time but I have no other choice. Its either 350MB, or 57MB right now. I am tired of their crap customer service. @virginmedia
