    @virginmedia I’ve said this more than once before on here and I’ll say it again. VM broadband is crap!! Their Wi-fi is shi., keeps cutting out yet they promise it is better and stronger. Don’t believe it!! The old router was far better than this rubbish!!!

  • rancid_insane rancid insane 🤪 (@rancid_insane) reported from Newport, Wales

    So @virginmedia sat an hour in help chat waiting for reply regarding my issue/query of my broadband After an hour I guess you wasn't interested in helping me out. To me shows a totally lack of respect to a loyal customer with full package 🤬 Could you provide a CS number

  • SilverwoodVS Dr Victoria Silverwood (@SilverwoodVS) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @JackoGaz @virginmedia It’s down over the whole city. I broke it out of sheer frustration watching that drivel and spent the third period cooking vegetables rather than continue watching. That’s how serious it was 🥬🥒🥕🥦

  • lowri_mifsud Lowri mifsud (@lowri_mifsud) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia would you please rectify the fault at cf235ar asap, been down 24 hours and @WalesRugby is in the morning. You even have an extra hour to do it as the clocks go back! Plus it is my birthday! @richardbranson @WelshRugbyUnion

  • OfficialCurtiss Curtis_Tyler (@OfficialCurtiss) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia have got to be the worst company to go with for broadband. Paying the “best broadband “ yet it drops every week. Trying to order a booster is a ******* nightmare , absolutely joke, shouldn’t even left SKY. Tamping 😡😤

  • CharlBalcombe Charlie Balcombe (@CharlBalcombe) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia ... told to raise a formal complaint. Which I HAVE but I am still waiting for a response for my formal complaint. Honestly, I’m done. I’d like someone to sort this now please.

  • kristianbrimble Kristian Brimble (@kristianbrimble) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    After calling Linksys, it was 45 mins on the phone with @virginmedia with the agent arguing with me that they can’t help with my hub if it’s in modem mode only for them to pass it on to someone else who changes a setting and asks me to reset. 30 wait for results now.

  • iantosh4 Ian McIntosh (@iantosh4) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia Very frustrating as seem to just go around in circles with the same issues! Could you arrange for someone to call 2mo to discuss and resolve please (Save me calling and waiting again)

  • CharlBalcombe Charlie Balcombe (@CharlBalcombe) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Not sure who we’ve been speaking to for the last day. But they’ve been the most helpful member of staff we’ve had contact with over the last five months. Has not only helped me fix the problem, answered any questions, but is taking my formal complaint further for us.

  • staceyjhubbard Stacey J Hubbard 🐧 (@staceyjhubbard) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia @RealUltTrident Both, it's slow speeds 24/7 and cuts out every 4 hours or so, sometimes in the day the speed comes back to normal for an hour or two but then returns to its slow state

  • SeanJHayes Sean Hayes (@SeanJHayes) reported

    @flossybball @virginmedia @VirginMediaIE God rid of Virgin ages ago. Nothing but problems that kept reoccurring. Same for anyone else I knew who had them too. Ridiculous. Such a shame too cos UPC was flawless before they took it over.

  • Dercl CD (@Dercl) reported

    @virginmedia @DeeSingh86 I live in N16 and I have been having the same issue as @DeeSingh86 for now 3 consecutive weeks. Intermittent connection, both WiFi and Ethernet cable. Makes it impossible to have MS teams work meetings or play PlayStation in the evenings...yet, I am paying full price.

  • Notorious_GIB Andrew Gibson (@Notorious_GIB) reported

    What’s the chances? Just had my 2nd Covid jab and now I come home to my @virginmedia broadband not working!! 😱 they were right all along.

  • mpreshit Preshit Mendhekar 🇮🇳 (@mpreshit) reported

    @virginmedia And the apology has to be from team who yelled at me without even understanding the problem… i wonder how will you treat if i continue

  • AftonWater Afton Water 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇪🇺 #indyref2 (@AftonWater) reported

    @virginmedia There are no issues with the service. All good. The issues are when I’m more than 4 feet from the router. Less than 4ft I get 100Mbps. More than 4 ft I get 0Mbps.

  • Samiieface Samantha G (@Samiieface) reported

    @virginmedia Months upon months of failures from Virgin, it's now time to. Involve the ombudsman. I've honestly never had such a prolonged period of bad service from 1 company. It's exhausting!!

  • kathrynahedrick Kathryn Bowers (@kathrynahedrick) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Thank you, unfortunately not today - same issue and it's been this way for a few weeks now

  • kcnln Keith Beefy Conlon (@kcnln) reported

    @virginmedia As soon as I go into a 5g area I get absolutely no signal,have to turn 5g off. Absolutely hacked off with Virgin, will be cancelling all my accounts when contracts up 🤬😡🤬😡
