  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@cymboi) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia The Wi-fi is rubbish, slow and crap service up stairs. Often I have to connect to extenders. It’s a two story average house. Your routers are rubbish. The older ones were much better!!

  • James76clark James Clark (@James76clark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Trying to get through to @virginmedia for an hour, only to then be cut off once being transferred! Poor show! Desperate to speak to someone as we have had our cables cut by resurfacing works!! 😡😡

  • IanRawlings2 Ian Rawlings (@IanRawlings2) reported from Newport, Wales

    Got to love @virginmedia, having spent 1 hour 15 minutes on the phone waiting to speak to someone in their technical service, finally get through to be told they close in 15 minutes nothing they can do 😳 on the WiFi black spots better off getting something from Amazon 🤬🤯

  • AlisonCrichton Alison Crichton (@AlisonCrichton) reported from Nailsea, England

    Worst customer service award 2020 goes to @virginmedia 🥳 congratulations on being a bunch of absolute jokes!

  • davidtoliver David Oliver (@davidtoliver) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia What’s your customer service telephone number? Can’t find one anywhere. Don’t want a “Message Bot” - I want a human to sort out our problem. Wife’s a GP trying to provide patient care from home -can’t because of broadband problems. Don’t tell me to reset the router!!

  • meribelman Peter Williams (@meribelman) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia I would happily self serve online, via a browser or app, as you incessantly encourage me to do, but when the page says “oops something went wrong, we’re unable to change your package online”, its very frustrating. @O2 will help you soon!

  • staceyjhubbard Stacey J Hubbard 🐧 (@staceyjhubbard) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia That status page states there are no issues, the issues are apparently the walls in my house and my neighbours electrics even though it's been fine for the last 18 months

  • James76clark James Clark (@James76clark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Having text the number you gave me, they referred me back to the technical phone number as they cannot help! So, let’s get back on the phone for the 3rd hour, in the hope I don’t get cut off, again! #shambles

  • HuwCCFC Huw (@HuwCCFC) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @AndyDerricott @virginmedia If you're looking for some help from @virginmedia, good luck! Their customer support is non-existant.

  • jamesbrinning James (@jamesbrinning) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Would be nice if you could offer a call back service.

  • danielfairley8 Dan (@danielfairley8) reported

    2 hours and 23 minutes on the phone to virgin media to cancel me contact 😒

  • Cannon_a Aaron Cannon💛💙 (@Cannon_a) reported

    @virginmedia No the unit outside had to be replace due to bad water damage. I’ve been asked to take a picture to prove it won’t happen again. Shouldn’t that be the engineers job when he completed the job?

  • Danny111984 Daniel (@Danny111984) reported

    @virginmedia can I reduce my services online ? Been sitting waiting on the phone for nearly an hour now I appreciate we are in the middle of a global pandemic but it’s getting to the point where I’m going to cancel my whole subscription soon!

  • CornwallCanuck LettWalking (@CornwallCanuck) reported

    @virginmedia It just shows as Virgin Media. When I replied that I had no business with VM and you have wrong number, I got a ‘Sorry, responses... not monitored’ reply from +44 7480 632098: ‘please reply HELP if you need assistance’. Next was saying turn off and on again etc etc

  • Bird1432 Claire Billows (@Bird1432) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely outdone yourselves again with customer service. 2 days of texting with numerous identification verifications, but still not resolved. You quite happily give my details to a debt company, but cannot sort out thr mess your customer service created.

  • Ebb1 Eb (@Ebb1) reported

    @Louise_Robbo @virginmedia Llive chat is useless, customer service is not customer service, very poor service. Have to move providers. Anybody else having problems with virgin media?

  • Jeebo28 Jeebo 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@Jeebo28) reported

    Virgin media are actually wastemen, my WiFi’s been intermittently going down like every 5 minutes for 5 hours now

  • jackstearman jack stearman (@jackstearman) reported

    Hello @virginmedia just been on hold for 1 hour and you've cut me off - absolute joke of a system and extremely poor customer service -

  • jane_duguid81 Jane Milligan (@jane_duguid81) reported

    @virginmedia I’d actually like to update my complaint to include the fact I asked to speak to a manager and no call back was received
