Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia can you tell me what has gone wrong with your company!?!? I have been with you for years, without complaint but, since Dec 21, you change my contract, without my say-so & despite constant calls for 6 months, still nobody will take responsibility & sort it out!!! 😠😠
-
MH 🏴🏳️🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from St. Julians, Wales@virginmedia @O2 Talking to a cmsr service rep at the mo, absolutely crap!!
-
Dom Silva (@DomSilva2) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Hi our internet is going to be down for 2 days. I have a business acc with you with phone line will I be compensated for inconvenience? 😡
-
Graham Findlay FRSA 🏴🇪🇺 (@FindlayEquality) reported from Cathays, Wales@rwilliams1947 @virginmedia It seems VM are also messing up landlines too. They now need to connect the phone cable to the Wi-Fi hub . Which means lots of trouble in my house and many other properties across the UK. And good luck with trying to discontinue their contract - they make it very difficult.
-
Right Direction (@BackOnTrack__) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Rather than patronise me just offer a good service snd get it sorted tomorrow.
-
Louise Dare (@lou_dare) reported from Ringland, Wales@virginmedia any issues.. Np199gf ? No internet.. and yes I’ve checked everything 1st
-
Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, WalesOh, maybe not. Even though the website says no problem, there is a problem with the broadband round here 🙄 @virginmedia
-
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.
-
Benjamin Hartrey (@benj8min) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia It doesn't. No changes made. I had major problems setting this up, it went through someone in your complaints department and they had to do something manual to set the package I was on up. Clearly, even they are incapable. I've had TV for a few months, then it's just gone off.
-
Steve George🏴 (@George66Steve) reported from Cathays, Wales@virginmedia It's not intermittent, it's completely down in CF23.
-
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.
-
Justine (@Justine_F1) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Looking for an update for the CF3 outage.. Channels have been off over 6 hours now Telephone too. Please advise
-
mz f Drennan (@mz_drennan) reported from Cathays, Wales@virginmedia you ,mean the awful service you usually provide is even worse,,
-
Paul Ivins 🏴 ♎ 💙🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️ 🇪🇺 (@ivinsp) reported from Cardiff, Wales@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
-
🏴 Stuart 🏴 (@welsh_stu) reported from Caerphilly, Wales@virginmedia do you have issues in CF83 ? Our business broadband is down again.
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia But the team is impossible to contact!!! And when you do get in contact it’s always someone else’s problem, ‘oh I’ll just pass you onto my colleague’ etc. I’ve WhatsApped the help number too and been told it’s a long wait and told I can ‘get on with [my] day’ - absolute joke.
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@OldSparky6 @virginmedia I’m never going with them again. Genuinely don’t know how they are still a company that is allowed to operate when the customer service is this bad!
-
Gareth Jones (@gazthebluebird1) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia That's not going to help me reset my password.
-
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
-
MH 🏴🏳️🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from St. Julians, Wales@virginmedia On hard wired, approx 250mbs out of 350mbs. It’s a hub 4 with new connectors added and bits of cable, but again I’m having to call support to see why our intellipods aren’t working.

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Isla (@saoirseisla) reportedMy fave thing about @virginmedia is nothing. No WiFi for 4 days. No WiFi = no tv. Been fobbed off for days. Each day promising it’ll fixed by the end of the day. Only to turn around today and say only an engineer coming to the house can fix it. I want out of this contract.
-
Greg O'Connell (Two jabs) (@Gregster29) reported@virginmedia Ringing customer services was my first port of call and that got me nowhere.
-
hennii (@NathanH17475101) reported@virginmedia My WiFi has been down for over 2 hours. The box is flashing red. Apparently no outage in my area. I have tried all recommend things
-
Alex Reed (@uyanikhatun) reportedTired of paying for multiple subscriptions like Sky, BT Sport, Virgin Media, Now TV, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+? I have got the solution. This IPTV @8k_Best_IPTV32 offers: • 300,000+ live channels • 65,000+ VODs • PPV events • Netflix • 78,000+ movies
-
adam (@adam_2510) reported@virginmedia absolutely shocking customer service. Told by an agent I one price and now I’m in a contract at the wrong amount! Virgin media sales people lie even when I have the proof!! Absolutely poor customer service do not buy Birgin Media!!!!
-
TheRealCraig (@AnIndividualist) reportedIf @virginmedia had good deals I would’ve considered re subscribing. But cancelling our old email addresses without notice because we cancelled has caused so much trouble I certain won’t now
-
prashanth (@trulyprashanth) reported@virginmedia Formal complaint: missed installs on 12 Apr and 25 Apr, 10+ days without broadband. Equipment installed but service still not activated due to system issues. Extra costs for data and dongle incurred. Please escalate, activate within 24 hours and confirm compensation.
-
David Richards (@DWRICHARDS) reported@virginmedia Thanks so much. Who should I ask for?! Current promise via Chat is a chq within 30 days. The problem with contacting Virgin Media by phone or online when you are a former customer chasing a refund is that it is difficult to get past your security checking if it's an old a/c.
-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@nameHarryPalmer @virginmedia That's EXACTLY it. They couldn't be bothered to fix it, didn't tell me, cut me off completely and didn't bother to organise ANY kind of repair. It just beggars belief Words almost fail me as to how poor an organisation @virginmedia have turned out to be throughout all of this
-
Jonathan H (@howdo01) reported@virginmedia I did, says all was working no faults or errors, so don't what else I can do, must be your end.
