    @virginmedia Need to cancel my new order. It wasn’t done correctly and given the total lack of being able to contact you I have lost confidence in VM. Cannot contact anyone to cancel though, what a nightmare. Just taking too much of my time to make switching worthwhile. #painful

  • PaulHunter1969 Paul Hunter (@PaulHunter1969) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia please can you DM me? I can’t get through to the help desk.

    @virginmedia I’m still unable to get a decent Wi-fi signal at the back of the house.

  • 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!!

  • 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

  • simmo_phillips Simon Phillips (@simmo_phillips) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Avoid at all cost’s! A terrible company!

  • soozles_ Soozles 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@soozles_) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia and the signal on box office has gone again! Bloody ridiculous 😡

  • bert33uk bert33uk (@bert33uk) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @bluebirdchapo @WezTucker @virginmedia Don’t try Bt worst in the world for internet I’ve had it twice when I moved. Internet wouldn’t pull your hat off absolute shite they actually gave me compensation. plus all these newish companies offering great deals are shite as they all use Bt lines.

  • 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!! 😡😡

  • huwgat Huw Llewellyn (@huwgat) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Thank you Virgin Media for being absolutely useless sorting my email problem. 8 hours in total on the phone with so called tech experts and still doesn’t work properly!!!🤬🤬🤬

  • 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!

  • huwgat Huw Llewellyn (@huwgat) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Tried Virgin Community. Virgin rep encouraged me to take up tech package at a price. After spending 6hrs yesterday and 2hrs the day before, I am still in the same situation! This not a good service with your so-called experts!!!

  • 76DarrenJ Darren Jones (@76DarrenJ) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia what a ******* joke over 30 mins in a cue and then when I get through they say they can’t hear me and hang up 🤬🤬

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

    @virginmedia your customer support is absolutely crap!! Spoke to Salim who was just as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle!!

  • ChrisFagan1988 Christopher Fagan (@ChrisFagan1988) reported

    That ad on the radio for Virgin media broadband is absolutely awful.

  • VladaOfEngland Vlada ®️💯 (@VladaOfEngland) reported

    @virginmedia I’m sorry but the speed to the hub 3.0 you have provided is of no interest to me as a user. It’s like telling me that you are guaranteeing the speed to the switch box down the road. For me is important that part from the hub you have sent me to my devices.

  • OG_AXPECT OG AXPECT (@OG_AXPECT) reported

    @virginmedia why is your internet service so bad? I have had 80-92% packet loss on multiple games over the past 3 days. I haven't been able to connect to any games at all.

  • JayWinteringham Jay Winteringham (@JayWinteringham) reported

    @virginmedia is the internet down in my area?

  • VladaOfEngland Vlada ®️💯 (@VladaOfEngland) reported

    @virginmedia Can’t check the wired connection as everything is wireless here and it is slow.

  • deepsystems1 DEEPSYSTEMS (@deepsystems1) reported

    @virginmedia i was just told by your customer services that if i move my account to my new address then i dont have to pay a cancellation fee. so if you move somewhere that doesnt have virgin you get charged.. why is that my fault?

  • VladaOfEngland Vlada ®️💯 (@VladaOfEngland) reported

    @virginmedia How about providing a service you are charging for And having offers for existing disgruntled customers so they can be assured about your new services? As shown in previous tweet, your current service is way below standard and stands at 30% of what you charge for. 2/2

  • DuncanDsrdrly Lindsay (@DuncanDsrdrly) reported

    @virginmedia Also be careful when you @ me because you have already included some poor person in this conversation who is not me. @ Lindsay is someone completely different.

  • kathrynahedrick Kathryn Bowers (@kathrynahedrick) reported

    @virginmedia I'll try that, but I know the issue is the change with Vodafone. My husband is on Three and hasn't experienced this issue at all.

  • scottbcomedyuk Scott Bennett (@scottbcomedyuk) reported

    @virginmedia There is only a check coverage function and that sends me to a page about upgrading SIMS. Can you tell me if there is an issue in my area please, I never had this problem previously Thanks
