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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • James76clark James Clark (@James76clark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Trying to get through to @virginmedia for an hour, only to then be cut off once being transferred! Poor show! Desperate to speak to someone as we have had our cables cut by resurfacing works!! 😡😡

  • 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!!!

  • 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.

    @virginmedia your customer support is absolutely crap!! Spoke to Salim who was just as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle!!

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

    @virginmedia The Wi-fi is rubbish, slow and crap service up stairs. Often I have to connect to extenders. It’s a two story average house. Your routers are rubbish. The older ones were much better!!

  • 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!

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

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

  • 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!!!

  • soozles_ Soozles 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@soozles_) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia and the signal on box office has gone again! Bloody ridiculous 😡

  • 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

  • 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

  • James76clark James Clark (@James76clark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Having text the number you gave me, they referred me back to the technical phone number as they cannot help! So, let’s get back on the phone for the 3rd hour, in the hope I don’t get cut off, again! #shambles

  • meribelman Peter Williams (@meribelman) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia I would happily self serve online, via a browser or app, as you incessantly encourage me to do, but when the page says “oops something went wrong, we’re unable to change your package online”, its very frustrating. @O2 will help you soon!

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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!!!🤬🤬🤬

  • pastymuncher86 Ninja Embellish (@pastymuncher86) reported

    @virginmedia hello, been trying to contact someone on your live chat for ages with no response. Also tried calling but had no response, I know you're busy but I'm still trying to resolve the issue of the Joshua fight and no one is responding to me.

  • BaconCheeseZ bacon (@BaconCheeseZ) reported

    @SquidGaming @virginmedia It's **** awful here too and I'm a good 80ish miles from your location. The entire network has been utter dog **** this last month or two, if not longer. Same lack of response or actual care for us too.

  • clarky609 denise clark (@clarky609) reported

    @virginmedia On the second appointment engineer called customer service who the tried to sell a dearer package for 92 pound instead of original quote she was worried and in tears and is now worried that money will be taken out when she is not expecting it.

  • Jason_Atkins Jason_Atkins (@Jason_Atkins) reported

    @virginmedia No known issues apparently which just means your service is terrible in general these days, been like this for a month basically will be cancelling tomorrow.

  • BIGTED1967 J.B (@BIGTED1967) reported

    @virginmedia When I have a spare couple of hours up spare I will, or just cancel the Direct Debit that should solve it.

  • KDon78567212 K Don (@KDon78567212) reported

    @virginmedia yes- I do. I should add that I have been experiencing this issue since last June. I was on phone more than 5 hours trying to get this sorted. I have just found out that you have extended my contract for 18 months without acknowledging me. I have been with you for the last 13years

  • anna_streeter Anna Streeter (@anna_streeter) reported

    @virginmedia Hello - internet is awful in CM23 3FR, anything being done to rectify ?!

  • Its_JayD__ JD (@Its_JayD__) reported

    @SquidGaming @virginmedia I have had the exact same issues with virgin since lockdown their network isn't capable of dealing with everyone working from home. Ofcom should be holding companies accountable for this instead of download speeds only!

  • Lovehasnowords1 Suzy 🌹 (@Lovehasnowords1) reported

    @Esarubbish @virginmedia I think we're seeing the start of a 2 tier benefit system, those who are on legacy benefits, unpaid carers,& disabled recieved no extra financial support in Rishi Sunak CV19 financial support budget, & excluded UK recieved nothing, looks like virgin eligibility also excludes

  • clarky609 denise clark (@clarky609) reported

    @virginmedia It’s a long story, package was ordered initially was self installation but we called stating we required an engineer, engineer booked turned up but customer service cancelled the order which we did not know until the engineer spent hours on the phone, we rang again new engineer
