    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

  • Welsh_Saint14
    Ryan Davenport (@Welsh_Saint14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia My wife is currently on the phone to your customer service regarding this matter so hopefully it'll be resolved this evening, if not then a web chat from 4pm would be the best time for me

    Another day in the life of a @virginmedia customer. TV showing fault. Ran online diagnostics, didn't fix. Site says to call. Call. Go through menu, TV, fault... sends me a text with a link to online diagnostics, says "thanks for calling" and hangs up. Worst. Company. Ever.

    @virginmedia When will the website be fixed? It has been broken for weeks, ever since you “improved” it.

    Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I phoned THREE weeks ago to cancel our contact, there was a dispute over a cancellation fee. A manager was supposed to call me back, I’ve rang 5 times since to check as heard nothing- each time was told ‘within 48hrs’. Move out next Friday, what am I supposed to do????

  • stfcjoner1986

    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.

    @virginmedia I’m trying to end my contract with yourselves. Which is proving an impossible task When I PRESS 1 on the phone to get through to someone, the phone line goes dead? Appreciate any help.

  • CharlBalcombe

    @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

  • MissAzzaB
    Ariane (@MissAzzaB) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Anybody else in Cardiff have reeeeeally slow and inconsistent internet these last couple of weeks? Trying to do anything involving the wifi - work or streaming - is so painful! @virginmedia #Cardiff

    @virginmedia We tried the chat option and after going through security questions got redirected to another department which was then closed and the chat ended 😡 I have sent an email complaint on your website. Appalling service and communication from day one.

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

    @virginmedia Any good reason why the outstanding @CNN news is being withdrawn from the cable service. Very, very disappointing. I am sure that I am not alone. #News #Media

    @virginmedia have the worse broad band service....customer service is a shambles and all.

    @virginmedia Hi can someone help me I'm trying to log in to my account but keeps saying there's a problem at your end

    @virginmedia is there a problem in the CF23 area ... no WiFi??

  • Dazc090861
    Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia can you tell me what has gone wrong with your company!?!? I have been with you for years, without complaint but, since Dec 21, you change my contract, without my say-so & despite constant calls for 6 months, still nobody will take responsibility & sort it out!!! 😠😠

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

    @virginmedia Can I just ask why it is that you can respond within minutes on social media (where the public can see your actions) but then in private you are ignoring your customers and taking three weeks to deal with issues? If you have agents manning twitter why can’t you pick up the phone?

  • misselisamartin
    Elisabeth (@misselisamartin) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia are genuinely the worst broadband service, I've been left with no Internet or TV service since 2pm with no update to when it'll be back 🥴

  • macauc01
    Christina Macaulay (@macauc01) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia terrible service. You booked to install my equipment on 13th Dec 2023. Wrong year and no one will sort it out. Your fault entirely

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Believe Virgin are just a bad after the initial contract.

  • eightieschick72
    Charmaine Rome (@eightieschick72) reported

    @virginmedia Sorted out. But it would have been nice if your customer service had checked outages first before spending an hour taking me through things that clearly wouldn’t have worked because an engineer had chopped through a live “in the area” and the whole area was down!

  • seccadelikbaby
    Gizëm (@seccadelikbaby) reported

    @virginmedia Of course I already checked. The estimated fix time is now 8:06pm. That’s far too late and will completely disrupt my workday. I work from home and have already been without internet for 2 days. This situation is unbelievable and has caused me significant inconvenience!

  • rebeccaann1989
    rebecca ann jarvis (@rebeccaann1989) reported

    @virginmedia Mines not the main one which is the issue, I never had these issues with the TiVo system it's been since the switch to 360 which doesn't work in a house with various boxes as each box should be separate and not synced

  • danni_ox_
    Danni (@danni_ox_) reported

    @PharmacistExpat @virginmedia They could - but their website states broadband is only an issue when it’s broadband only deals, it’s it’s broadband and tv - it says any broadband, therefore anything that’s in the “not eligible” below, doesn’t count for them

  • eightieschick72
    Charmaine Rome (@eightieschick72) reported

    @virginmedia @epwhamilton @virginmedia Same issue here. Took 1 hour on the phone to Virgin to be told there’s an outage. No comment about it on your website. And no idea when it’s being fixed. Moved from BT 3 weeks ago for more reliable internet. Not impressed at all.

  • piercepower222
    Dave O’ Connor (@piercepower222) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Then you’re in for a disappointment. VM are absolutely the most awful service provider I ever had to deal with. Hard to escape their clutches when signed up. Still smile when eventually terminated the contract after hours on the phone. No online option to do so.

  • andrewtalbot72
    Andy T (@andrewtalbot72) reported

    @virginmedia @gblondon1 Good luck with that….!!! I did the same 18 months ago… after 4 months of Virgin messing up my bills I moved back to @skytv The call centres are simply the worst I’ve ever encountered A much better service imo…

  • GothGuyGamer
    Gothguy (@GothGuyGamer) reported

    @MartinSLewis Virgin media top tip: If you're close to the end of contract, don't renew. Give them your 30 days notice, When 30 days has elapsed, apply as a new customer with a new email. They won't give you any better deals unless you're a "new" customer

  • keithapearson
    Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Sorry, mate, but Virgin Media has the worst customer service I've experienced in my 54 years on this planet. They've got over 100,000 reviews on Trustpilot with an average rating of 1.5/5. That should tell you all you need to know. I cannot wait for my contract to end.
