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

  • 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

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

  • WayneBirch11 Wayne Birch (@WayneBirch11) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia just awful customer service just had a agent laugh at me down the phone it’s now 14 days with a damaged phone

  • 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.

  • 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 👋🏼

  • KevDocChild Kevin Child (@KevDocChild) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia There are plenty of issues in Swansea with your service it seems.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

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

    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 .

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

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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

    @virginmedia I was then told that I would receive instructions on how to do it via email. The email never arrived, could you please have somebody contact me and help me with this pressing issue promptly.

  • RazzleeMyDazzle RazzleMyDazzlee (@RazzleeMyDazzle) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John It says good connection now but if problem happens again I might have to try switching router off and on. WiFi shouldn't be going off in one day 🤔

  • Misss_Adele 🇬🇩 Adele 🇱🇨 (@Misss_Adele) reported

    @virginmedia hi, I am very disappointed with the level of customer service. I spent one hour on hold. Only to be told that you could not help me with my advanced router configuration query.

  • SeanLenton Sean Lenton (@SeanLenton) reported

    Does anybody recommend any other Internet providers? @virginmedia are constantly going down, poor customer service too.. Want the best speed I can possibly get. #internet

  • Hoppo01 Mark Hopkins (@Hoppo01) reported

    @virginmedia trying to sort out broadband problems for my elderly father, broadband hub not working, called and told to wait an hour, directed to website to order a new hub, but message to say can’t complete order and to phone; stuck in a loop with no customer service at all!!!

  • DonnyCartel LR DonnyCartel (@DonnyCartel) reported

    Sorry peeps can't stream at the moment @virginmedia internet decided to just not work today. Kinda considering switching providers, nothing but issues this past year.

  • djgavinomari DJGavinOmari (@djgavinomari) reported

    @virginmedia Terrible ! Internet down again!

  • Gurj100 Gurj (@Gurj100) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John issues are still just as bad. Keep getting disconnected even after the engineer has been. He also disconnected the cable I had in the wifi modem to my smart tv and took it with him. My smart tv won't work because the wifi signal is too weak and needs the cable. So angry!

  • Gurj100 Gurj (@Gurj100) reported

    @virginmedia Yes my dad saw him take it. There was nothing put to aside. We've been with Virgin since the Telewest days and I've never had issues like this. This is beyond unreasonable now. Almost 3 months of issues. This needs to get resolved asap!

  • J90Coe Andy Coe (@J90Coe) reported

    @virginmedia no phone service at np20 all day. Your system says no fault!
