    @richie_rich77 @virginmedia If it's just a WiFi issue and your LAN connection is OK maybe try a mesh system. Works great here with BT

  • SewScandalous
    Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, Wales

    Oh, maybe not. Even though the website says no problem, there is a problem with the broadband round here 🙄 @virginmedia

  • RedhillsAnnie
    Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Here we go again. No TV service and the service webpage is down……sighs…..

  • SewScandalous
    Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, Wales

    Oh, looks like @virginmedia have disconnected my service 7 days before they were meant to 🙄 Absolute rubbish.

  • djleekee
    Lee Smith 🌻 (@djleekee) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia The channel 4 one seems a bit flakey too. The opening sting on each service plays and then some ads but on both the programmes never play so I give up and use the smart TV apps instead. I've assumed it's a bandwidth issue but I suppose if ads are playing the progs should too.

  • j_bettany
    Jacob (@j_bettany) reported from Clevedon, England

    So many scammers calling from '@VirginMedia Technical Support' at the moment. 5 in 24 hours. I've taken to suggesting they might think about getting a different job but heartbreaking to get the response, 'can you give me one?' It's basically #organisedcrime built on #poverty

  • Paulyb65
    Paul Burnell (@Paulyb65) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia really frustrating morning. First day back from the holidays, stacks to do and internet has been down from minute I signed in!! Really need this back up ASAP!!

  • philscully
    𝗣S. (@philscully) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia But im asking what would be different to the other times where ive just wasted hours of my day for nothing to change? We have called numerous times only to be told there is no problem or to reset. No other assitance is ever offered

    Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia With respect, your customer service advisors are useless. As is the technology for contacting them. As per my initial message. Last time I went through this I was booked a chat appointment by your twitter team with someone who specifically handled the complaint.

  • gillih
    Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Yes. Have done this and spoken with your ‘fault management service’ who cut me off when I was explaining the problem.

  • Welsh_Saint14
    Ryan Davenport (@Welsh_Saint14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia So myself or my wife has to spend our working day trying to get through to ypu just to be fobbed off to different departments and get no where 🙄🙄 customer service skills at best

  • Dazc090861
    Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I do not want to be with you any more because you are doing my head in!!!! You have turned from being a very good company with good service to being the most disgusting people I have ever had the displeasure of coming in contact with!!!

  • 3EyedTiger
    𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐫 (@3EyedTiger) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @virginmedia Cheers, still down this morning - tried another 2 router reboots at 6am and 7:30 respectively but was no better, solid red light, etc.. Will try again at midday

  • caialed

    @virginmedia why am I paying £45 a month for my internet to constantly be down

  • gazthebluebird1
    Gareth Jones (@gazthebluebird1) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I am unable to sign into my online account and trying to speak to anyone at your company its like trying to make contact with the moon, can you open up a DM conversation to help please?

  • BackOnTrack__
    Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia you absolutely SUCK! Sick to death of the poor service you are providing. No TV at all and having to wait 3 days fir a technician and yet you will still charge us, I’m FUMING!

  • brodyanderson_
    Brody (@brodyanderson_) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yeah have already called. Reports no service issues in my location despite online reporting intermittent issues this morning. Ability to book an engineer has disappeared. Help appreciated - now over 24h without connection

  • MaartenSleeckx
    MaartenX. (@MaartenSleeckx) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia Clearly not as the issue keeps coming back after multiple engineer fixes outside AND in my home. You're lying through your teeth and leaving me in the dark literally. Stop hiding behind "standard business" replies, be human and help me.

  • BackOnTrack__
    Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m fuming! We were lied to by their customer service , promised an engineer this an no one turned up now been told by customer service that we won’t have one until tomorrow #nithoodenough

  • orangethunder_
    Nathan Rhys George (@orangethunder_) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    I feel awful for the @virginmedia social media staff. Bosses - invest more in infrastructure to genuinely improve services and stop these poor people being treated like ****. Also, pay your taxes.

    @gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia I changed to virgin once. Lasted 6 months. They charged me for services I didn’t ask for or use took bigger payments than they should have and not one person on the phone spoke clear enough English for you to understand. Absolute **** show of a company

  • j_henderson__
    JHenderson (@j_henderson__) reported

    @virginmedia since 9.15pm yesterday we’ve been without tv & internet, now they’ve just text saying 2pm tomorrow to be fixed. Nearly 2 days to fix an issue is disgraceful customer service. Again we’ll be looking to switch to Sky or BT. Virgin Media are useless.

    @MartinSLewis Wayleave agreement on a due use pole and virgin media ask to use the pole… yep no problem…. Wants in it for me…. 🤫 then came back we can give you a £100 John Lewis voucher…. Bingo..

  • epwhamilton
    Edward Hamilton (@epwhamilton) reported

    @virginmedia You've also texted cancelling the engineer that I'd booked because it's a network issue, but again I have no information. Hence the frustration

  • AniaSowinski
    Ania Sowinski (@AniaSowinski) reported

    @virginmedia @beckykeating97 No we can’t as you are refusing to acknowledge it’s an area issue. It all went down at the exact time an engineer was working on one house in the street. It’s now been 24hours with absolutely NO service

  • alxwms
    Alex Williams (@alxwms) reported

    @virginmedia That just doesn't work. It is hugely painful ringing you up or playing blind darts to see which one of 20 accounts a text relates to. Just change things and start putting a postcode or account number or part account number in your texts

  • Jasonrfc90
    Jason ferguson (@Jasonrfc90) reported

    @virginmedia What am i paying u idiots for every single day my internet goes down honestly the worst service provider in the uk i would rather use my giffgaff internet than this **** show of a company

  • missjnyc1
    Jeanette (@missjnyc1) reported

    @virginmedia Spent an hour and half on the phone with your customer care team. They couldn’t tell me why they hadn’t turned up, no way of contacting them. Have booked another slot for tomorrow, the team wouldn’t even read the number I had just given them 2/3
