  • emilyjane73 LauraT 🔶 (@emilyjane73) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Need to cancel my new order. It wasn’t done correctly and given the total lack of being able to contact you I have lost confidence in VM. Cannot contact anyone to cancel though, what a nightmare. Just taking too much of my time to make switching worthwhile. #painful

  • PaulHunter1969 Paul Hunter (@PaulHunter1969) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia please can you DM me? I can’t get through to the help desk.

  • niamunna1 Nige ⚡ (@niamunna1) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia 2 full internet outages today whilst teaching lessons from home. Shockingly unreliable service.

  • StevenNott StevenNott (@StevenNott) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @chloemphoto @virginmedia Even if the ethernet works, the WiFi issues are still there and you need it sorting. It's in the @virginmedia contract to ensure all equipment is working and functioning as it should. Faulty equipment should be replaced and remember, you're paying for the service.

  • StevenNott StevenNott (@StevenNott) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @chloemphoto @virginmedia If it connects to other WiFi networks from the same source ie @virginmedia then the problem is within your router itself and not any device connected to it. Your router is faulty and needs replacing. You said yourself that the router is faulty and goes offline if even moved.

  • StevenNott StevenNott (@StevenNott) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @chloemphoto @virginmedia The laptop also works off mobile data sharing too so connectivity issues are good. Please sort out this mess because the router is needed to be working properly for laptop work to be done at home. Stop all this buck passing from one dept to another and help these guys PLEASE.

  • Jones1Enfys Enfys Jones (@Jones1Enfys) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia customer contact centre, been hanging on the phone for an hour! Reporting scam, breach of data!!!

  • 76DarrenJ Darren Jones (@76DarrenJ) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia what a ******* joke over 30 mins in a cue and then when I get through they say they can’t hear me and hang up 🤬🤬

  • katejones_cymru Kate Jones (@katejones_cymru) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Hello. I’m waiting for the service to be reconnected, any chance this can be sped up as I’m wfh and need wifi ASAP

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@cymboi) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m trying to connect to my own and it won’t! They’re the worst piece of equipment you e ever supplied. The previous one was better!

  • TheRealNigsy Nigsy (@TheRealNigsy) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia seem to be having issues in Newport area anyone else effected or do we put it down to the bad weather?

  • ChristianSurfer Phil Williams (@ChristianSurfer) reported from Nailsea, England

    @virginmedia the issue now is I was promised a deal on the phone then rang up the day after and they refuse to offer me that same deal, all the details are on the email I believe I have a strong case your word is your bond. @MartinSLewis @WhichUK not best way to deal with a 22 year customers

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

    @TheRealHavokHD @virginmedia Not at the moment mate but I'm looking at when BT & Vodaphone hit the area, if its this year then it'll be a switch Also think I'll go around all the neighbours etc telling them about issues etc advise them to do the same. I'll make flyers with my ThinkBroadband trends on 😡

  • huwgat Huw Llewellyn (@huwgat) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Thank you Virgin Media for being absolutely useless sorting my email problem. 8 hours in total on the phone with so called tech experts and still doesn’t work properly!!!🤬🤬🤬

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from Victoria, Wales

    @virginmedia 🙄 isn’t that just a lazy way of doing tech support. When I worked for you going back a few years, we were very customer focused!!

  • ChristianSurfer Phil Williams (@ChristianSurfer) reported from Nailsea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been a loyal customer for 22 years & reviewing all my package and find out that if I had been a new customer I can get the same package for 30% cheaper can you explain this please ? Or get somebody to contact me doesn’t sound like good customer care to me

  • StevenNott StevenNott (@StevenNott) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @chloemphoto @virginmedia I'm a customer of yours 👍 and I can categorically prove that the laptop is 100% working correctly using 'my' Virgin Media WiFi connection with no issues. There's an issue with @chloemphoto's router which isn't getting resolved and the easiest solution is to replace it asap.

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 #yescymru (@cymboi) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m still unable to get a decent Wi-fi signal at the back of the house.

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

    @virginmedia down again Cardiff, meant to have a lecture at 7, which isn't looking likely

  • huwgat Huw Llewellyn (@huwgat) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Tried Virgin Community. Virgin rep encouraged me to take up tech package at a price. After spending 6hrs yesterday and 2hrs the day before, I am still in the same situation! This not a good service with your so-called experts!!!
