    @virginmedia business- 30 mins outage on Friday and its still off. Take it you are giving me a free couple of months for the poor service? Thanks, very kind.

  • KevDocChild 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

  • bigchristweets 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.

  • phillip_richard Phil (@phillip_richard) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia #internet is down in #morfaroad #swansea same as yesterday morning ???? Done the reboots and need to know how long of possible

  • DarrenH99174695 Darren Hughes (@DarrenH99174695) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Wife had spent over four hours on the phone to various operatives over two days, no help whatsoever.

  • philcowley2 Phil Cowley #YJB4LIFE (@philcowley2) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia PS I know the link is at the bottom when you scroll down, it's just it would be easier if it was at the top

  • HayleyJones1987 Haylz 🦢🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@HayleyJones1987) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Hi, who can help in setting up a new landline phone? I’ve followed the instructions it came with but it doesn’t make calls or receive etc. thanks.

  • Adamcroft1996 Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales

    @virginmedia He apparently told my neighbour that it will just come on at some point tonight? I don’t really hold a lot of faith with that as he had no idea what the issue was?

  • grumpyoldprof Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    Hello @virginmedia. I cannot sign in to my ntlworld email - it says my password is not recognised. Is the server down please as my password has not changed. This has happened at least 6 times in the last 12 months.

  • enfysjack Paul Johnson (@enfysjack) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia £50 more for the same package seems unfair to your loyal existing customer's

  • The_Dave_89 The_Viking (@The_Dave_89) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @GalePrime @AshBoio @LoREclipse It's still **** as it's virgin media

  • enfysjack Paul Johnson (@enfysjack) reported from Swansea, Wales

    He @virginmedia Can you explain to me why a new customer can have the same package as me for £33 ? Whilst I am currently paying £85

  • Gezz99 Geraint Reynolds (@Gezz99) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia please update your Virgin Mobile automated message which says lines are open until 22:00. I called at 21:05 and connected to a lost & stolen line who couldn't help and also said they couldn't feed back to anyone that the automated message is wrong 🤦

  • JOHNSONGAYNOR GAYNOR JOHNSON (@JOHNSONGAYNOR) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @virginmedia Had trouble with TV since this morning. Now have just BBC and ITV. Tried phoning but had short message saying they are busy and phone later! Phoned later…same message! What’s going on!?

  • grumpyoldprof Duncan Lewis (@grumpyoldprof) reported from Skewen, Wales

    Hello @virginmedia. My ntl email is down for third time in as many months and am unable to connect to the server. How long before it is back please?

  • adewagstaff Ade Wagstaff Physio MACP 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@adewagstaff) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia @vmbusinesshelp I have. They were not great. I did explain that the voice options stated there was an issue. However, your email said it would have been sorted last week. You breached the 6 hour window and the 5 people I spoke to in Timbuktu didn't understand me all that well 🤦#poorservice

  • michalincs 🧑‍💻 Michał in CS (@michalincs) reported from Swansea, Wales

    I 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.

  • MikeARose98 Michael (@MikeARose98) reported from Cwmafan, Wales

    @virginmedia why are your customer advisors refusing to let people leave? I keep getting hung up on within a few minutes after they've transferred me between each other a few times. This service is shockingly bad 😡

  • Adamcroft1996 Adam Croft (@Adamcroft1996) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales

    @virginmedia No no known faults he was very surprised when I went out initially as he thought it was an isolated incident with next door

    @Hyperic55949796 @virginmedia Can't comment on Virgin Media but I'm on here searching "Sky Broadband" cos they are down for the third time in as many weeks (actual outage not just me, and not scheduled works). Moving to Sky was a big mistake on my part!!! The outages are always at night when support is closed

  • shoeshopper7 jo (@shoeshopper7) reported

    @virginmedia It’s residential every time I try and find out about my complaint I spend ages getting passed to different people then cut off

  • Barrister42 Rebecca Thomas (@Barrister42) reported

    Absolutely fed up with @virginmedia and their hopeless internet. Constantly going down.

  • g_fielding Gillian Fielding (@g_fielding) reported

    @virginmedia All are wifi. They have always been on wifi and have not had issues like the last 24 hrs. Speedtest is showing 3-8 mbps. I pay for 100 or 200mbps.

  • 16AJ29 𝘈𝙟 (@16AJ29) reported

    @virginmedia why are you so bad

  • youknowit0609 Quidonneuncoup 🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ 🇪🇺 (@youknowit0609) reported

    What is wrong with @virginmedia that they have to do so many days of 'Essential Service s- 2 this week and two next week.... I hope they will be offering compensation.

  • SamirAhmed93 SK (@SamirAhmed93) reported

    @virginmedia Hi yes we have had one issues and that has not worked. It's highly frustrating and the best answer we get is that the speed will increase. Nice offer if my broadband was ever stable enough to get there

  • Destroyerofpiz2 ThePizzawhoknocks (@Destroyerofpiz2) reported

    @virginmedia has been down since this morning once again such a ****** company

  • Lucan_Lass sj (@Lucan_Lass) reported

    @conor_pope VHI - brilliant customer service. Virgin media (or any tv/telecom provider post-sale) - god awful service.
