Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Cardiff, Wales

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Cardiff 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 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).

  • 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

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Nice going, @virginmedia - called to check how my complaint and SAR are progressing as they were requested on Thursday and I didn’t get the same day call back promised by the TM. Called back today to find 1. Complaint not set up. 2. SAR not submitted. AND....

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

    @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

  • Nogsynoos Naomi Haughton (@Nogsynoos) reported from Tonypandy, Wales

    @virginmedia I'm nearly 21 months into a 36 month contract I have a NOTE 8. I am not getting on with the mobile it's massive and stupidly big for someone with little hands. Am I able to down grade to a smaller one I want my iphone se again #littlehandproblems

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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!!

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

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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

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

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia 20 minutes waiting to escalate a complaint that wasn’t even set up just to get talked over and cut off. No basic understanding of GDPR it seems as my SAR wasn’t actioned.

  • JasveerP Jasveer Panesar (@JasveerP) reported

    @virginmedia No updates, I should pay 35 but I have lost service for the best part of the past few months. TV sound continues to not work either. I will join sky once this contracts up.

  • sophcave96 Sophie⛄️ (@sophcave96) reported

    @virginmedia can’t make or receive calls on my virgin mobile is there an issue :(

  • Silver_Taylor Taylor Seraph (@Silver_Taylor) reported

    @virginmedia Rebooted many times, as I say we've had VM engineers visiting, they've tried everything they can, I also tried a booster but no luck. I just need this fixing, or at very least a timescale so I can communicate to my followers and my day job. Not getting anything re my complaint.

  • TheOneMafu MatthewBenham (@TheOneMafu) reported

    @virginmedia Happy to speak to someone more senior if there is any way to get my issue resolved?

  • finkcreative Alex Lieven - Design & Art Director (@finkcreative) reported

    @virginmedia I don't think you understand. Doesn't matter if it doesn't work, stops working, interrupts etc. they won't do anything.

  • TheOneMafu MatthewBenham (@TheOneMafu) reported

    @virginmedia I upgraded to 500mb broadband, but Im getting reliability issues now. Your team can't help until the upgrade ticket is closed (despite already having the increased bandwidth). I'm paying more for a less reliable service, and no technical support because they're not empowered

  • G6Urm G6URM (@G6Urm) reported

    @virginmedia how about one of YOUR people ring me - i use your phone service - you have my number - - ok will leave you alone for now - but till this is fixed - not a happy customer - have a good day 👍

  • katepowell24 kate powell (@katepowell24) reported

    @virginmedia I have the full house bundle anyways this is besides the point I’m not paying another £5 when I already pay over £100 a month and my internet constantly goes off several times a day that’s your fault not mine I am paying for a service that is not meeting my needs!

  • Loty__Ray Loty Ray (@Loty__Ray) reported

    @virginmedia yes we are connected via ethernet. neighbours also experiencing the same issue. No change with ethernet cable. upload speeds are about 0.1mbs which is basically useless.

  • KeithMcDonough9 Keith McDonough (@KeithMcDonough9) reported

    @virginmedia no help whatsoever
