Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Newport and nearby locations:
-
andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales@virginmedia why does it seem impossible to sort my TV and WiFi out? My partner has been phoning up on and off for a year or more about poor signal, not being able to use catch and apps and general poor service. Just get fobbed off.] Is this how you treat all customers?
-
Pauline Lomax (@RedhillsAnnie) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Here we go again. No TV service and the service webpage is down……sighs…..
-
Gill Harrison (@gillih) reported from Portishead and North Weston, England@virginmedia I have got this sorted with your team now. Helpful person. But I suggest changing your auto system to give callers an idea of wait time. Better customer service.
-
Jordan (@welshcuriosity) reported from Cardiff, WalesUpgrading to gigabit broadband meant getting a new router from VirginMedia, so took the opportunity to tidy up and remove old cabling and extension leads. Didn't realise just how much unused crap I still had plugged in/taking up space
-
andy lanyon (@andylance1977) reported from Newport, Wales@virginmedia It works intermittently. This has been discussed over a series of phone calls through 12 months. A booster box has been sent too and its still poor. We're paying for a service we can't use when we want to. The TV box is next to the WiFi box downstairs & is still poor.
-
Mark Smith (@markccfc70) reported from Cwmbran Central, WalesBeen with @virginmedia back as far as old NTL days. Downgrade our package for the first time ever to keep costs down, and the Internet must have crashed at least 8 times today, the day after we changed. Absolutely useless, on the phone tomorrow to cancel this **** completely.
-
Ryan Davenport (@Welsh_Saint14) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia My wife is currently on the phone to your customer service regarding this matter so hopefully it'll be resolved this evening, if not then a web chat from 4pm would be the best time for me
-
Dr Chris Inglis (@ChrisSwinglis) reported from Penarth, Wales@GillibrandPeter Virgin Media are - by a significant margin - the worst company I've ever had the displeasure of having to deal with. I literally don't think there's anything in the world that could ever convince me to go back to them.

Gareth Thompson (@gareth_thmpsn) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia You really aren’t reading the messages, I’ve now told 3 different channels of my mothers death, I’ve called bereavement line to be hung up on, then closed early. I want a complaint raised, @Ofcom can you help?
-
Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, Wales@virginmedia Imagine being a customer service agent and not having a clue how to do your job hahaha! 🙄
-
Monkenstien. (@3_monk) reported from Beechwood, Wales@virginmedia I get your bills, that is how I realised as a loyal customer I am paying £40 plus a month for Internet access only. Fortunately for me and not for you BT Openreach have been installing fibre to home allowing me greater negotiating power as tou have no respect for loyalty.
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia I phoned THREE weeks ago to cancel our contact, there was a dispute over a cancellation fee. A manager was supposed to call me back, I’ve rang 5 times since to check as heard nothing- each time was told ‘within 48hrs’. Move out next Friday, what am I supposed to do????

MH 🏴🏳️🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from St. Julians, Wales@virginmedia @Dionne96310374 We weren’t offered that when ours went down
-
lee williams (@thelee_x_w) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales@virginmedia The image attached shows you have notified me of an issue
-
damian Kerlin 🏳️🌈 (@damianKerlin) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Yes, and it is a different issue every time. How, in a capital city, is this happening everyday, with your engineers unable to do anything to improve the situation. …and what about that refund, as we are paying for internet which we are not getting?
-
This is Carl🏳️🌈😺🏴🍕 (@Carl_E88) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia any chance of supporting existing customers, currently paying £32 a month but your offering new customers 25 a month. Helpline said nothing I can do as existing customer.
-
Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia Can I just ask why it is that you can respond within minutes on social media (where the public can see your actions) but then in private you are ignoring your customers and taking three weeks to deal with issues? If you have agents manning twitter why can’t you pick up the phone?
-
Ritch Zablan (@blue_murdock) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia … is there network cover problem here cardiff now?
-
Jacob (@j_bettany) reported from Clevedon, EnglandSo 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
-
Paul 🏴 (@paulo1927) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia as a former TV customer, now just broadband, I want to reconnect a TV package. I already have 3 boxes in my house can they not be just reconnected instead of sending my out a box?

Frazzz (@FrazzzYT) reported"There is intermittent signal in your area" so what did @virginmedia spend nearly a week destroying the Internet in this area actually fix... can't wait to leave once Openreach finish their build in this area. Sick of terrible service. Trying to run a business lol
-
Paul (@paul_gibbo921) reported@virginmedia @Bomber19631 Been really bad as of late can’t wait to leave
-
Chris Ross (@Chris_Ross95) reported@Starlink Sorry but much rather stick with @virginmedia They've never done me wrong. They rarely go down AND I'm getting faster speeds at less price than your top package.
-
Eamonn Hunt (@eamonnhunt) reported@virginmedia you need to up your game guys. Two weeks of intermittent connectivity and the best you can do is tell me that I need someone to come to my home but Ill have to pay a £25 fee if I miss the booking slot. How about I charge you £25 per day for lack of service?
-
jackduk (@jackduk1) reported@VeeVeeFreeFox The very reason I'll never use @virginmedia
-
aeri♡ (@aerikittie) reported@thevoteuk i remember what an absolute ******* nightmare virgin media was years back, they made it so bloody hard but once i was free i was like absolutely never again what the hell
-
oodaluke 🇺🇦🇪🇺 (@oodaluke) reported@virginmedia @D4N7O Rubbish, not working here either
-
shatners (@shatners144143) reported@anon_opin Virgin Media have been terrible recently.
-
Brit Ian (@dearbrit_ian) reported@SandyofSuffolk You really are out of touch, unsurprisingly. Virgin Media getting fined £28 million for preventing customers from cancelling their subscription shows that this is endemic. Many businesses insist that you contact them via telephone to cancel, but they make it impossible to reach them via telephone. These days, many recurring payments are automated against your bank card so you cannot cancel it via the app, you have to cancel the actual card.

Greg Cunnington (@Yuzi87) reported@virginmedia I've been a Virgin Media customer for 20 years, I've been paying out of contract rates at £109 a month for 2 years without realising. When I create a package as a new customer its £37 a month, however as a long time customer my new price is £68. Nice way to treat your Customers!
