    You'd think when @virginmedia sent out a new router it'd be one that works better than the old one, apparently not though, this ones shite as well. 3 days in a row, three seemingly random bouts of just not working

  • 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!!!!!

  • Kristian_Turner
    Kristian Turner (@Kristian_Turner) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes and says that the estimated fix time is 22:00 for all three!

    Elliot Griffiths (@ELGriff28) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes, there is. I have outages every week and im trying to work from home. Everytime i call i get the same answer (theres nothing we can do) I asked to raise a complaint and i was told that agents arent allowed? Appalling service!!!!😡

    @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.

    @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 😡

    Lucy Cohen (@LucyMazuma) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes so far. But apparently it's a temporary fix and they'll have to return again.

    Pete Bradbury (@PeteBradders) reported

    @virginmedia I have been a customer of yours for 25 years and upon the most recent contract renewal, you denied the package I opted for because it was for 'new customers only' and then went on to charge me with a bill for £124! A colossal 34% increase! Loyalty means nothing!

  • The_real_Jambo_
    Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported

    @virginmedia Internet, and subsequently TV, have been down since yesterday in G67 area. Someone posted a picture of the junction box knocked over, any idea of how long to fix? I work from home and need the Internet to do my job. This needs fixed ASAP.

  • kellyan99166027
    kellyann (@kellyan99166027) reported

    @virginmedia since 1pm yesterday afternoon we have been told that the problem is being fixed. Every time the estimated time comes up you change it again. We have little to no information about what’s happening. Could you please advise on when. It will be corrected ?

  • JimSummersNews
    Jamie Summers (@JimSummersNews) reported

    Hi @virginmedia, cables belonging to VM have been detached and hanging dangerously from my building for several weeks. I’ve been told on four occasions an engineer will come to fix, and nothing has happened. Can you help please?

  • davidlbrierley
    David Brierley 🍺 🏌️‍♂️ (@davidlbrierley) reported

    @virginmedia Con't But now seems to have disappeared. It must be somewhere but where? 4.i no longer seem to be able to search for a programme 5. Why do I have to sign in to watch a programme that I have already recorded 6. Can you explain why, if I watch a programme with subtitles

  • Samina_masood3
    Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported

    @VirginMedia We’ve had complete loss of internet since 2/5/26 due to broken cable, yet no proper fix or technician visit despite repeated promises. Instead, you sent someone to “clean router” & logged it as speed issue not total outage. This is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently.

  • gm8arv
    David Taylor 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇪🇺 (@gm8arv) reported

    @virginmedia It appears to be with my VM account. Reference IDF-12B. Is quoted. Phoned but all I could get was “they will phone back in several business days”. Tragically poor service! I see that I’m not the only one with this problem.

  • granth1974
    Neil G (@granth1974) reported

    @virginmedia hey virgin, you've downgraded my Netflix account without my permission. I'm mid contract. That's not allowed. I want it back to without ads asap or I reserve the right to cancel you without notice.
