    @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

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

    Alleluia @virginmedia Just taken one month to have most issues resolved. Feedback: less silos in customer service so they can see all issues and be more helpful.

  • mantha_1976 Sam Sims (@mantha_1976) reported from Newport, 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

  • carolgladwin Carol Gladwin (@carolgladwin) reported from Nailsea, England

  • 555Husker MarcB (@555Husker) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia When will the website be fixed? It has been broken for weeks, ever since you “improved” it.

  • 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!!

  • damianKerlin 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?

  • 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

  • cymboi 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.

  • fredljones_ Fred Jones (@fredljones_) reported from Barry, Wales

  • 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

  • Samanth82113398 Samantha (@Samanth82113398) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Hi can someone help me I'm trying to log in to my account but keeps saying there's a problem at your end

  • MissAzzaB Ariane (@MissAzzaB) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Anybody else in Cardiff have reeeeeally slow and inconsistent internet these last couple of weeks? Trying to do anything involving the wifi - work or streaming - is so painful! @virginmedia #Cardiff

  • edmorrispt Ed Morris (@edmorrispt) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Wifi recommendations in Cardiff? @virginmedia is the absolute worst thing on earth & ruins working from home

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

    @virginmedia @Dionne96310374 We weren’t offered that when ours went down

  • behnazakhgar Behnaz (@behnazakhgar) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I am trying to terminate the account. Its for my dad's house and need it done before the 3rd of March.

  • 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.

  • JakeBar66365454 Jake Barnes (@JakeBar66365454) reported

    @VirginMediaNews Is it Virgin Media 3's position that there is only one opposition party in the Dail? Two separate Sinn Fein spokesperson's on the same topic? Getting as bad as RTE news. Get a grip.

  • chrishenry88 chris henry (@chrishenry88) reported

    @virginmedia it seems connection is so bad you can’t see my tweets , that’s the only conclusion I can draw , after all I’m sure you wouldn’t ignore me .

  • justinbrummer Dr. Justin Brummer (@justinbrummer) reported

    Possibly the worst customer service ever @virginmedia avoid this rubbish company @richardbranson @albrummer

  • Liamtish Liam (@Liamtish) reported

    @virginmedia Alright, its none of these basic things. I need a new hub and an engineer. Please don't tell me to check the basic trouble shoot pages that tell me to reset the router. This is an actual fault.

  • ibi2001uk Ibi (@ibi2001uk) reported

    @virginmedia Your competitors use SM to sort out their customer issue. Yet here you are saying you don’t have access to complaints raised on your system. What is the point of the SM account then (win new customer and then treat them badly like existing ones?)

  • LeopardPopular Popular_leopard (@LeopardPopular) reported

    @virginmedia why don’t you just admit you have terrible WiFi and drop all this “best WiFi in uk”. It’s bullshit

  • ibi2001uk Ibi (@ibi2001uk) reported

    @virginmedia I did on Friday and one of the manager refused to do the needful so I have to wait for another call. I doubt if I’ll ever recommend you guys due to the terrible customer service. Nobody takes charge of a problem rather they pass customer from pillar to post

  • martr101 Martin Rands (@martr101) reported

    @wurzelm74 @virginmedia I've had the same problem, but recently it's been much better. Too many people working from home? Some streets, only Virgin has the high speed optical cable, so only alternative is 5mbps #monopoly on hi-speed?

  • RichardAtkin1 Richard Atkin (@RichardAtkin1) reported

    @virginmedia It has just happened again. Message says lost connection. This is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. Please arrange a time with me for an engineer to come out. You are getting over 100 pounds a month for a service that is not up to scratch. It is also amazing how many of my pupils and 1/2
