Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Port Talbot, Wales
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Port Talbot and nearby locations:
-
🧑💻 Michał in CS (@michalincs) reported from Swansea, WalesI cancelled @virginmedia broadband as the price kept increasing, the service wasn't. They offered 75% more speed for 40% less as I was such a "loyal customers for years". Effectively, they admitted they were overcharging me for years hoping that will make me stay! No thank you.
-
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.
-
𝗗𝗲𝘅 𝗙𝗶𝘁𝘇𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗱 (@Dex_Fitz) reported from Skewen, Wales@virginmedia You’ve sent me a link to explain how I can raise an official complaint. One option is to give you a call? Something I have now tried on 3 separate occasions. Did you not read the thread? #Virginmedia
-
Kevin Child (@KevDocChild) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia you really are impossible!20+ years as a customer, you invite me to get in touch to discuss my end of contract choices, then provide the lamest excuses when I try but fail! Mmm #timeforachangeofprovider
-
G (@therealGDJ) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales@virginmedia abysmal service. I’ve spent almost 2 weeks trying to get through to speak to someone about the price increase you’re looking to force on me, despite that I’m meant to benefit from #MatesRates for life. Please pick up the phone!!!
-
Neil Parry (@Ericsonnycon) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia There are no issues via your link
-
Paul Johnson (@enfysjack) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia £50 more for the same package seems unfair to your loyal existing customer's
-
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.
-
Chris Davies (@bigchristweets) reported from Gorseinon, Wales@virginmedia I'm aware of the line you're taking to defend the 11% increase but the point is that your service is rubbish as demonstrated by the third image. We have to chuck £200 to Google to get a hub that works. I presume you're not getting an 11% pay rise this year. I know I'm not.
-
S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales@virginmedia An engineer came out but still not working properly.
-
G (@therealGDJ) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales@virginmedia do you actually offer any kind of service??

-

-
The_Viking (@The_Dave_89) reported from Swansea, Wales@GalePrime @AshBoio @LoREclipse It's still **** as it's virgin media

-
Ian (@irbrassmonkey) reported@virginmedia What is going on with the internet in Bounds Green really not happy. This is my first month with you and because of this black out I have missed a one in a universe event. It will never happen again ever. Very disappointing.
-
Lee Black (@leeb9972) reported@virginmedia Dundee DD4 area, limited broadband, any issues you are aware of, i might need an engineer :(
-
JJ (@TheLedge1916) reported@thejournal_ie What ******** has this idiot been watching? Rte ,Irish times , virgin media all up the holes of the government
-
V (@vp_matic) reported@virginmedia Broadband down since 7am this morning. With a secluded repair date of 2days from now! ‘Register of loss of service In Order to receive compensation’ impossible to locate on your app or any of your web pages? Yet a Price increase this month! Absolutely Shameful!!
-
Jessica Simpson 😺🐶🐾 (@Jess_Simpson645) reported@virginmedia just trying to cancel an engineer appointment by phone. The amount of questions I am being asked to verify it’s me is absolutely ridiculous. They are wanting information that I will have to look up on my computer which is not to hand, so unfortunately they will have to turn up at my house and I will have to tell them they are not needed and I will tell them why.
-
Ian Dodds (@Do08dds) reported@virginmedia app not working yet again! Cheers for another ruined evening
-
DonegalDúnedain 🇮🇪 (@DonegalDunedain) reported@moefitzpatrick I was expecting less support tbh, but the anomaly that is FFG 90 year old voters whose only source of info is Virgin Media and RTÉ will always upset perceived public opinion.
-
Mandy H 💙 (@ShropshireMandy) reported@virginmedia why is your customer relations so bad? I have spent 3-4 hours on the phone trying to get a refund after you carried on taking payments after I terminated my contract. Please get it sorted.
-
ANDY YATES (@ANDYPVFC) reported@virginmedia @El_Lloydie It's pointless sending you lot messages as customer services is an absolute joke.
-
Michael “Mecha” Modelsky (@MikeModelsky) reportedIs anyone else on @O2 finding that since the @virginmedia team up the service is horrendous, has taken my partner seven weeks to get their account unlocked, no it’s been unlocked. They can’t pay their bill due to an insecure website issue and too many redirects.
