Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Newport, Wales

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Newport and nearby locations:

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes, I understand that issues happen, but it would be nice to know more than just “we’re currently having issues”. If someone told me “a bolt of lightning from that thunderstorm you had hit the cabinet and fried it” or something, we’d probably be a lot more understanding.

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I tried texting that number and got no answer. I just tried calling the helpline, was on hold for about 20 minutes, was asked for all my contact details and then your operator told me her system is down and I should call back in 2 hours!!

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Both wired and not, advised to turn off and back on, diagnostics checked at your end, engineer visit, resulted in all new v6 boxes (x2) and a new internet hub also internal wiring checked and re-connected. Issue seemed to be resolved for a while but after then goes off altogether

  • hannahughes Hannah Hughes (@hannahughes) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @emmah1188 @virginmedia Completely incompetent. Customer service is unacceptable. Unable to give a ‘goodwill gesture’ as we’re not account holders despite having an account number, set up a direct debit and signing a contract.

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Our internet has been down completely since early this morning (not intermittently like the automated message is suggesting) and I still don’t know if it’s a problem in the area, or just our own property.

  • jamcole88 🇬🇧Jamie🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@jamcole88) reported from Panteg, Wales

    @virginmedia Your just as bad as sky lol

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

    @virginmedia Still not working... 3 days.. wont hold my breath

  • pops_74 St.Ives.Great.White (@pops_74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @liammorris91 @PedMeisterYT @virginmedia Same as mine. 200 next to the router and every step I take I lose about 40. Once im@in my kitchen literally 6 steps down the hall it’s know to go to 4g

  • WynfordE Wyn Emanuel (@WynfordE) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    As my @virginmedia bill is now creeping up towads 130pcm I called to cancel or negotiate. A small discount was offered. I was surprised how little effort was made to retain a customer. (‘OK, thank you for calling’). So I’ll have to switch.

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

    @vmbusiness @Forbes I'd just like our service to work ...

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

    Thanks @vmbusiness & @vmbusinesshelp We are rolling on to day 6... with no service... And no call backs... Thanks for being you

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia No, I didn’t get any estimates. Just a generic “we’re sorry you’re still having issues, our engineers are currently working on it but it’s taking longer than expected” (something along those lines at least).

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Yes, I understand that. But after signing up to SMS updates four times via two methods, I’d expect to at least be receiving texts telling me that the fix times have been pushed back.

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia It’s been going on for months, I have had all new boxes and hub but it still goes down. I have been told to keep my local engineer up to date. There is nothing the help desk can do we have tried everything

  • slim3110 Emma Giles (@slim3110) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia my mum left in May and she’s had three bulls since then can’t get online as her account number is no longer recognised can you help pls

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

    @virginmedia Business... Was told before our forced upgrade because we had been with you for years... we were out of contract so you dodnt have to honour anything.. we upgrade.. still shit

  • RPagey Richad Page (@RPagey) reported from Beechwood, Wales

    @virginmedia hey there been trying to get in contact with your complaints team for over an hour now regarding a second breach of data protection. After being in hold numerous times and then cut off can you give me any ideas how to contact them regarding this data protection issue

  • hannahughes Hannah Hughes (@hannahughes) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    It is beginning to look like @virginmedia have fraudulently sold us a package that was not available to me due to the many reasons that your various customer service team members mentioned before they hung up by putting me on “hold” and made me ring back...

  • OrdinryGirl1987 OrdinaryGirl (@OrdinryGirl1987) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia new broadband routers now working, speeds dropped massively when I can get internet, tried for 14 minutes to get through to your customer service (being charged thanks for that) and can’t get access to my account as your team registered my email address wrong. Help!

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    OMG forever having internet issues with #virginmedia even have my own direct line to an engineer.

  • NatashaMorganIE Natasha Morgan (@NatashaMorganIE) reported

    @virginmedia I appreciate that, however I was booked in yesterday to which you messed up! So why should I be penalised for your mistake? I can’t wait another week. I will have to cancel the contract.

  • greedydreamer greedydreamer (@greedydreamer) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 but there were so many unresolved complaints that I now need you to confirm the last complaint no. raised so I can take this further and prove that I did attempt a resolution with you first. Seems that @CISASUK want to protect you more than consumers

  • caprio_theo Yondu Poppins (@caprio_theo) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband strength is to weak to support WiFi in the North Liverpool area, any ETA when things are going back to normal?

  • rawcliffeantony rockyroads33 (@rawcliffeantony) reported

    @virginmedia I wanted a 360 box 2 weeks ago ! Put a complaint in about the service being shocking, Said I’d get a phone call to discuss, still waiting !! Can’t wait to leave @virginmedia

  • JessCollins123 Jess Collins (@JessCollins123) reported

    @VirginMedia_TV @virginmedia can someone help me ? I've ported my number to the mobile network and got the confirmation text saying successful but I can't call or text or receive any. My data is working though. Help 🥺🥺🥺

  • overbyte overbyte (@overbyte) reported

    @virginmedia No. I have confirmed by running ping to 8.8.8.8 continuously that these are network dropouts, not game failures

  • gazzaeuro Gary Spence (@gazzaeuro) reported

    @RadioToday I live in the Bilsdale area @RadioToday and it is day two without the transmitter not working. I have access to my DAB+ Radio and Virgin Media Cable. But I do also watch Freeview a lot.

  • jc5n_ quack (@jc5n_) reported

    @virginmedia It’s all good now.. we had someone put a better connection thing on it from you because we couldn’t get no wifi from upstairs.. hopefully this booster works and helps the signal

  • manita_123 Manita (@manita_123) reported

    @virginmedia Are your IT issues affecting my PAC code transfer? I joined Virgin to avoid this sort of problem. Gave my PAC code over 24 hours ago and still nothing.

  • JamieGiberti Jamie (@JamieGiberti) reported

    @virginmedia is it possible to DM you about a support issue in getting a new router? I have spent considerable time on the phone with a couple of your members of staff this morning, was supposed to get a callback, it hasn't happened.
