Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Pontarddulais 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.

  • 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!!!!!

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia I was advised that I need to speak to a different department, by what feels like every department in Virgin Media! Whoever dealt with the house to house transfer has made an error.. and has somehow cancelled my service. But no department is taking responsibility to fix

  • paul_g89 Paul G (@paul_g89) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia can’t update my package online can you help please

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia I was transferred numerous times. Then finally told that the person who set up the house transfer, has messed it up and somehow cancelled my access. With no solution on how to fix it

  • 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.

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia Could you tell me what department I need to speak to about set up issues after a house move, and what time they close please

  • 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.

  • belock14 Beccy Blackmore (@belock14) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m having problems getting through to your customer services, I’ve been trying since yesterday morning. This is unacceptable. Please can you send me a link for a web chat.

  • _JGall 👹JGall👹 (@_JGall) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @MrsSusanAlder @virginmedia Virgin are so bad I have them too

  • DragonEmbers Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

    Can't take Virgin Media to my new address because the estate is too new and they don't have Virgin Media in those streets yet. First world problems 😂

  • Babyeh66 Helen Roberts 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Babyeh66) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Hello, can’t get into @NetflixUK on TiVo box tonight getting error code A01, haven’t had this problem before please help

  • 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

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    Spend hours waiting for someone to answer @virginmedia then they just tell me ‘wait till tomorrow and it will work’. And it never does, cancellation never sounded so appealing

  • _katyjames kat 🍊 (@_katyjames) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia pls fix my wifi

  • MrsSusanAlder Susan Alder (@MrsSusanAlder) reported from Swansea, Wales

    When @virginmedia service status says everything is fine but it's been on and off since Saturday 😡😡 x

  • JonJamesPhoto81 JonJamesPhotography (@JonJamesPhoto81) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @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.

  • _katyjames kat 🍊 (@_katyjames) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia We had a box fitted yesterday and the signal just isn’t working, it drops ever other minute or so and we can only get service in the room where the box is

  • Vanilla__Slice Sarah (@Vanilla__Slice) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia I'm moving home at the weekend so engineer's came out to the new property today to connect the outside cables to the house. They were unable to as the neighbours are using that cable. Hope you can help.

  • DragonEmbers Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Having to pay an early disconnection fee because you don't run services there is brilliant customer service 😂

    @virginmedia hi, I’m trying to use your live chat function but it’s going round in circles. I’ve only got a simple question. How can I get help please?

  • Chris__Haycock Chris Haycock (@Chris__Haycock) reported

    @virginmedia 25th June which is unacceptable when it should of been yesterday given it was only yesterday they emailed me saying it been rescheduled! They would say they are passing me through to a team that can help and hang up on me and refuse me a manager

  • ryanpearce1997 Ryan Pearce (@ryanpearce1997) reported

    @virginmedia I have checked and it says there’s an issue, but I wouldn’t trust you guys as far as I could throw you when it comes to solving issues.

  • doubleeggnchips eggsnchips (@doubleeggnchips) reported

    @virginmedia No I havent because this works perfectly fine every other day of the week. I can see on other websites that Virginmedia have a massive problem currently and your status update is not being honest with customers.

  • GazzaAdams Gary Adams (@GazzaAdams) reported

    1/2 @virginmedia not usually one to complain especially when it comes to the internet as ours is relatively reliable 80% of the time. However, our broadband is down today until approx 3pm for ‘service improvements’. What I’m particularly annoyed about is that my wife is hosting

  • CorleyI Íde Corley (she/her) (@CorleyI) reported

    @virginmedia you scheduled RedHouse installation for me yesterday but didn't arrive although I rang/WhatsApp'd you four times & you confirmed my appointment each time & you did not cancel or explain no show. This is awful service. When will my wifi be installed?

  • ThisMorningCall Ben Heyworth 😷🏳️‍🌈🇬🇧🇪🇺🇭🇰 (@ThisMorningCall) reported

    Has @virginmedia gone down this morning - we have no WiFi whatsoever….??

  • JulietDunstone Dr Juliet Dunstone (@JulietDunstone) reported

    Woken up to the genuinely delightful news that @CISASUK have ruled in my favour that @virginmedia have "broken a term of the contract between it and the customer and breached the duty of care it owed to the customer" & owe me £282 & a written apology.

  • davidturleyuk boratAVFC (@davidturleyuk) reported

    @virginmedia No point…it’s down again this morning…that’s 4 times within a week major problems being down for long periods….I need more than £8 a day compensation…not being able to work from home for key worker….you just don’t care
