    @virginmedia why is WiFi down for the fourth time this week whilst the app says service is fine? I know it’s not just my box.

  • MarkDav96152735 Mark Davis (@MarkDav96152735) reported from Gorseinon, Wales

    When you work from home you rely on the internet coverage from your supplier. Mine has gone down this morning with expected fix at 3pm. No prior warning from @virginmedia SHITE!!!!!

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia TBH I’ve restarted the WiFi as per your tips online but the performance is really poor.

  • Veronica_Cino Véronica (@Veronica_Cino) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia ive been on hold for age (56 minutes now?!) no reply on social media or from the websitei am an essential worker and I need internet to work. Your customer service is the worst

  • CLlewellyn19 Chris Llewellyn (@CLlewellyn19) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Is there anyone working tonight? My box is not working and is stuck on the starting up page. Been like it for about 3 hours. Waited on the phone for an hour then got cut off, been waiting for another 2 hours 😡

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia why am I buying for you when your broadband service continues to disconnect?! #complaint 😡

  • Veronica_Cino Véronica (@Veronica_Cino) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia You guys are the worst literally, your replies are so slow!

  • YilmazKml Kamil Yılmaz (@YilmazKml) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia what is difficult about transferring my Internet to my new address? I have spoken to your agents umpteenth times, received confirmation that my request has been received, but still no internet service after nearly two weeks...this is really annoying.

  • George2Rachel Rachel George (@George2Rachel) reported from Neath, Wales

    @virginmedia After being on hold for over 50 minutes I had to end the call. I’m literally back to square one. That’s the problem.

  • therealGDJ G (@therealGDJ) reported from Pontarddulais, Wales

    @philhovestadt @virginmedia That is only half of the issue...

  • mikeyowen2 Michael owen Ⓜ (@mikeyowen2) reported from Cwmafan, Wales

    @virginmedia network is the worst WiFi I have ever witnessed in my life.

  • CLlewellyn19 Chris Llewellyn (@CLlewellyn19) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Got through to someone this morning. A new box is needed and a technician booked for Tuesday. Any chance you can contact my mate @wrighty1313 he’s been having issues too 👍

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes I have and it’s says there are no issues. It’s frustrating as I’m working from home and continues to drop or go off.

  • IROJDP Jonathan🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@IROJDP) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia been on hold for over an hour and twenty mins with my 90yo dad to try to solve a C130 connection problem. And still no answer. Absolute shambles customer service

  • SimonLew87 S (@SimonLew87) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Hey I’ve done everything on your website and still the same issues.

  • LucyMazuma Lucy Cohen (@LucyMazuma) reported from Swansea, Wales

  • GayUncleJimmy Gay Uncle Jimmy (@GayUncleJimmy) reported

    @virginmedia Still experiencing drop outs. Test on kit showed network issues but hasn't updated the status section of the app. When just tried to run another test it said everything was okay but still experiencing drop outs

  • Nikkiipixiie ThePixieScientist (@Nikkiipixiie) reported

    @virginmedia when you sent me a signal booster and it still hasnt done anything to help about 6 months ago. when i call i end up on hold for an hour then being cut off. Then you use the pandemic as an excuse which i find ridiculous considering i work for the NHS ...

  • Rossi2k Ross Wilcox (@Rossi2k) reported

    @virginmedia Apologies but I have done this so many times now it is beyond a joke. Complaint open since late Feb. Explained over 10 times. Web chats galore and them promised a manager will call me. Last time late last week even gave dates and times when I was available. Still no call. #failed

  • cara_horgan Cara Horgan (@cara_horgan) reported

    Our @virginmedia broadband is down again. It’s literally been once a week for the past two months. Really dissatisfied @VMSolutions_ @virginmedia with your terrible service when it’s SO EXPENSIVE 🤪

  • ddaltry29 Darren Daltry (@ddaltry29) reported

    @virginmedia The way I see it is virgin have a few options. Send and engineer to look at possible REIN issue send me a SH 4 to try or release me from my contract so I can go to another supplier. Or send me a deadlock letter so I can refer to ofcom.

  • jwr79 james ridley (@jwr79) reported

    @virginmedia Looks like we know what the issue is. Because we're now on 5g it appears that we have been moved to Vodafone from EE. This was not made clear when we took out our contract so I now have a phone I can't use as Vodafone is totally useless at SY9. Seriously unhappy.

  • MissRT13 Rachel (@MissRT13) reported

    @skytv new customer alert! Previously with virgin... @virginmedia apparently destroy BT point and have own cabling. So now no internet as sky don’t auto alert virgin customers need new cabling so no internet for 3 days!! Be warned!! Book the engineer ASAP

  • amodelofcontrol adam w (@amodelofcontrol) reported

    @virginmedia So, this is great, except that the relevant options on that number play a pre-recorded message (COVID means some offices and lines are closed, etc)...and hang up. So it would appear I can't speak to anyone about this - and I'm stuck with the install date. Compensation claim? Yep

  • ddaltry29 Darren Daltry (@ddaltry29) reported

    @virginmedia You know what I have tried contacting you several times and all I get is a sms referring me to your website. Never an actual person. I’ve literally had enough now. Send me a deadlock letter to I can contact the ombudsman.

  • marshc89 C Marsh. (@marshc89) reported

    @virginmedia I've just run a service check. Looks like it's an area issue. Estimated fix time is 20.55.
