Katieeeeeeeeeeeee 👻 (@SewScandalous) reported from Newport, WalesOh, maybe not. Even though the website says no problem, there is a problem with the broadband round here 🙄 @virginmedia
-
Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales@virginmedia can you tell me what has gone wrong with your company!?!? I have been with you for years, without complaint but, since Dec 21, you change my contract, without my say-so & despite constant calls for 6 months, still nobody will take responsibility & sort it out!!! 😠😠

-
Rob Weaver (@welsh1lad) reported from Rhoose, Wales@virginmedia my email has stopped working , inc web mail . Rest pass also fails . Is there any issues ? Was working yesterday.
-
lee williams (@thelee_x_w) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales@virginmedia another day another WiFi outage. This really is the worst WiFi I've ever had. Legally as you are not providing the service as promised am I allowed to cancel the contract ? @CitizensAdvice
-
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.
