Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Port Talbot and nearby locations:

  • 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.

  • 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 👋🏼

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

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

  • 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

  • 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 .

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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. 🤬

  • 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.

  • sadelta99 Andy (@sadelta99) reported

    @virginmedia had to call your fault line due to losing internet - got through to some non uk call centre - they are literally as thick as a plank. No help at all and didn’t listen to a word I said . Do you have a uk call centre number please

  • RBL789 RBL (@RBL789) reported

    @virginmedia Well, it came back for an hour and down again. Now what??

  • rybing Ryan (@rybing) reported

    @virginmedia no one calls back when promised. Hours and hours on the phone with no further progress. very very poor service indeed.

  • NaomiChadwick91 Naomi Chadwick (@NaomiChadwick91) reported

    @virginmedia total disgrace of a company. Have been trying to cancel our broadband for the past week and a half and getting nowhere. @WhichUK

  • clairerandall Claire randall (@clairerandall) reported

    So @virginmedia I currently have neither internet phone or tv. Care to clarify if this is a known issue or just me? Given I don’t have phone either I can’t ring your next to useless phone line to see whether there’s a fault in my area.

  • AMLeditorial AMLeditorial (@AMLeditorial) reported

    @ChadWeather @virginmedia We've got plusnet; they have real people in their customer service team. From Yorkshire, which is not that far away.

  • hellen_roche hellen roche (@hellen_roche) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been on the chat since 9am🤬😡🤯 utterly disgusting customer service yet again.

  • Syedofficial90 Sy Ahmed 👊🏻👊🏼👊🏽👊🏾👊🏿 (@Syedofficial90) reported

    @virginmedia customer service is absolutely terrible!!

  • Mark_Hines Dr Mark Hines (@Mark_Hines) reported

    @virginmedia I have NEVER had a broadband account. Why would my account be closed without any notice? I'll happily use a different email account, but I do need to access those first

  • gamhawkins Georgia🦕 (@gamhawkins) reported

    Been trying to cancel our @virginmedia broadband for TWO MONTHS, were told on Saturday that it was done and we had nothing to pay, just for them to turn around today and say we owe them £120🙄 we switched to sky in January so I don’t think we owe you anything babes xo
