  • belock14 Beccy Blackmore (@belock14) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m having problems getting through to your customer services, I’ve been trying since yesterday morning. This is unacceptable. Please can you send me a link for a web chat.

  • si_rees Simon Rees (@si_rees) reported from Margam, Wales

    @virginmedia hi my speed has died to a crawl this morning in the SA13 2 area of Port Talbot. Have reset the Super Hub etc. Help needed please.

  • Jackson_SCFC Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia I have had: -An upgrade -An engineer come and change the box outside my house -A brand new hub -New power line adapters -My connection tested on your end numerous times And yet the connection, 99 times out of 100, feels like total shit whenever I use anything intensive.

  • si_rees Simon Rees (@si_rees) reported from Margam, Wales

    @virginmedia My wife rang (as account in her name) eventually got through, and an engineer is expected in next few hours as I connection at all now!!Poor/no mobile signal at home as booster box is connected to your router, so even more inconvenience right now.

  • DragonEmbers Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Having to pay an early disconnection fee because you don't run services there is brilliant customer service 😂

  • _katyjames kat 🍊 (@_katyjames) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia We had a box fitted yesterday and the signal just isn’t working, it drops ever other minute or so and we can only get service in the room where the box is

  • Jackson_SCFC Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia No, I've gone down this route before, just look in to your routing servers and or the bandwidth limit. Any time I do anything remotely intensive all packets start getting dropped. I'm on my knees.

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia Could you tell me what department I need to speak to about set up issues after a house move, and what time they close please

  • Jackson_SCFC Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia 200 down from what I can remember, I'm at work right now so I can't check but the speed isn't the issue. Also, I said "should" because based on his test, it's an above average connection, but in practice, it's wildly inconsistent in terms of ping, packet loss/timing.

  • Vanilla__Slice Sarah (@Vanilla__Slice) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia I'm moving home at the weekend so engineer's came out to the new property today to connect the outside cables to the house. They were unable to as the neighbours are using that cable. Hope you can help.

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia I was advised that I need to speak to a different department, by what feels like every department in Virgin Media! Whoever dealt with the house to house transfer has made an error.. and has somehow cancelled my service. But no department is taking responsibility to fix

  • DragonEmbers Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

    Can't take Virgin Media to my new address because the estate is too new and they don't have Virgin Media in those streets yet. First world problems 😂

  • Jackson_SCFC Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia I just googled it and my issue is with my pc hooked to my router with an Ethernet cable, the WiFi is fine

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    Spend hours waiting for someone to answer @virginmedia then they just tell me ‘wait till tomorrow and it will work’. And it never does, cancellation never sounded so appealing

  • hedges1975 Richard Hedges (@hedges1975) reported from Gorseinon, Wales

    @virginmedia would it be too much trouble for someone to fix my landline issue, I can't receive incoming calls, yet your call centre agents tell me there going to ring me back on my home line and then cut me off!!! Can't ring me back if I can't receive incoming calls!!!!!

  • Jackson_SCFC Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Again, I appreciate what you're saying, but similarly I've had an engineer to my house and he said that within the parameters of his test, that my connection should be better than average. This is an issue with how my connection is being routed.

  • JonJamesPhoto81 JonJamesPhotography (@JonJamesPhoto81) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia @johnmclaren1972 All I’m seeing are apologies but still no resolution to fixing issues, providing a decent service or looking after existing customers. I’ll be changing to sky next month.

  • Babyeh66 Helen Roberts 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Babyeh66) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Hello, can’t get into @NetflixUK on TiVo box tonight getting error code A01, haven’t had this problem before please help

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia I was transferred numerous times. Then finally told that the person who set up the house transfer, has messed it up and somehow cancelled my access. With no solution on how to fix it

  • _katyjames kat 🍊 (@_katyjames) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia pls fix my wifi

  • tashhall Tash Hall ✨ (@tashhall) reported

    @virginmedia this is our third day without internet and i can’t get through to anyone on any of your channels will someone help please!!

  • joe_jsx13 jsx13 (@joe_jsx13) reported

    @virginmedia This is with looking at your forums and seeing there are MAC address problems with the router.

  • yashtopgal Tasha (@yashtopgal) reported

    @virginmedia We can’t register a loss of service as we never received a service to begin with so are ineligible. All appointments were for external work. A representative told us we were eligible and couldn’t log a complaint about customer service as we were getting compensation anyway!

  • Girthire George Grigg (@Girthire) reported

    @virginmedia Engineer visit on 5th Jan, earliest call on our call history is April 9th as we had to wait for you to confirm it was still broken after that. Call where you confirmed sending of deadlock letter and termination of contract was 12th August

  • joe_jsx13 jsx13 (@joe_jsx13) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, no nothing was listed on the website at the time, I am a live streamer and the internet (wired connection) went down around six times before I gave up last night. This has become a regular occurrence and after investigating further I believe this requires an engineers visit.

  • JazzyDodger Jasmine (@JazzyDodger) reported

    @virginmedia hi, I’m out of contract with yourselves but still paying monthly. I’m taking out a contract elsewhere, once I’ve obtained my pac code and swapped number over will that automatically stop my payments or do I need to cancel the direct debit? Many thanks

  • Simon_Derrick Simon Derrick (@Simon_Derrick) reported

    @virginmedia I have found an account number but have not had a bill since I was on dial up service about 15 years ago

  • ThomasSturgess3 Thomas Sturgess (@ThomasSturgess3) reported

    @virginmedia hi. Any known issues with broadband in the CT9 area? Mine has just gone and I work from home.

  • BobbyGrant26 Bobby Grant 💙 (@BobbyGrant26) reported

    @virginmedia @ms6282 Michael can I ask what the issue was? Not getting email on phone, iPad or even when try on web I get message saying mailbox is not available at the moment?

  • kudaaa09 Kuda (@kudaaa09) reported
