  • 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

  • Botleylady  Val  (@Botleylady) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m totally disgusted with your call centre service I’ve just had a call from them & the person in question conveniently cut me off whilst in process of speaking to him. This has happened before & a complaint ignored. Value your customers you don’t know the meaning

  • 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.

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Maesteg, Wales

    @vmbusiness It's been 11 days without service... and no call backs... I'd just really like to leave

  • 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.

  • Hywel79 Hywel (@Hywel79) reported from Swansea, Wales

    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

  • 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.

  • identiti32 Sara-Jane (@identiti32) reported from Price Town, Wales

    @virginmedia Sort IT OUT IF I DONT ANSWER I CANNOT BECAUSE NO INTERNET BECAUSE @Plusnet suck AT HOUSEMOVES AND I HAVE NO SIGNAL

  • BenSwansea Ben Lewis-Bloor (@BenSwansea) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia my internet just suddenly went down 10mins ago. I was using it. Your test says it cant see the equipment SA1 2PQ

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • chris061183 chris (@chris061183) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @mb1984 @virginmedia mine is exactly the same keeps going off . it's a load of crap sent me new box and no change. 🤬

  • Sixth_Form_Coll Swansea Sixth form College (@Sixth_Form_Coll) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia so disappointed with your service. It’s been 9 months since we changed our package and still @virginmedia cannot get a simple Direct debit form processed correctly.

  • 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.

  • Botleylady  Val  (@Botleylady) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Reading @StrictlyDavina comments regarding lack of customer service with @VirginMedia I wholeheartedly agree ; it leaves a lot to be desired . @virginmedia need to apply the service the customers are paying for instead of continually increasing their prices .

  • Leelamou Sophie 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Leelamou) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia It was definitely intentional! Anyway... an hour later I finally managed to cancel. Won’t ever be using you again. See ya 👋🏼

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Maesteg, Wales

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness @GrumbleGutsUK Ours still doesn't work... 3 weeks

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Maesteg, Wales

    @vmbusinesshelp @luhbreton @vmbusiness We are on 18 days of no internet or service.. so I feel you

  • parsons_brian Brian Parsons (@parsons_brian) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply, the room where my hub is has great WiFi, my study has my laptop and printer, however WiFi is poor. I’d like to put some kinda booster in there, I did a test and looked into ordering one from you but was dismayed to being told it will cost £3 per mth plus del

  • chris061183 chris (@chris061183) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @mb1984 @virginmedia glad it's not only me with this issue mate 😂. very poor
