  • BenLloyd91 Ben Lloyd 🔰 (@BenLloyd91) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @RiotAngeI Ye virgin media’s been a ***** the last few days 🙈 they’ve released a statement saying that VM customers are using the internet more often than normal with everyone being home due to the lockdown that it’s having problems keeping up to speed, so not much they can do really 👎🏻🤣

  • DebbieWharton Debbie Wharton (@DebbieWharton) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @WillHayCardiff @virginmedia Same here, it’s awful. We can’t get hold of them and the website complaints section isn’t much help either!

  • reddevil1975 Leanne Everest ❤💛❤ (@reddevil1975) reported from Barry, Wales

    Here we go again another night #virginmedia decides to go down, I've lost count how many times now typical when it's about the only thing keeping us sane in lockdown!!! 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

  • nicholasmith6 Nichola-Louise 💞🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿💞 (@nicholasmith6) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @ofthesaintsUK @AmazonUK @AmazonHelp Are ur supplier @virginmedia by any chance because my connection has been awful x

  • BigDogWrestler Big Dog (@BigDogWrestler) reported from Newport, Wales

    @Annabanana8008 @virginmedia I feel for you, if @O2 and @virginmedia do merge, I'm leaving at the earliest opportunity. @virginmedia leave me a little cold and with no confidence as a customer.

  • Thelansdownepub The Lansdowne (@Thelansdownepub) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Phoned @virginmedia to see what they can do about a payment holiday since we are forced to remain closed for the foreseeable and obviously not using any of our broadband services. They offered a discount of half a months bill. Wow. The worst company we have spoken to so far 😰

  • Johnsbigsister Karen Murphy (@Johnsbigsister) reported from Barry, Wales

    @PeriPusher @RiannaSandu @virginmedia Listen idiot, if I pay for a service I expect to get it. If I don't I want my money back.

  • perks18 Roger Perks (@perks18) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Have upgraded the service and in theory should be able to run an official but I've been having problems with my router for weeks. It's not working properly and barely allows me to watch Netflix! I'm a critical worker and this isn't helping. Can't speak to anyone!!

  • perkie7 Claire Perks (@perkie7) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia WiFi across house very slow. The internet access was tested with cable ached to router. Internet speed good but Unable to open 2 government website WiFi signal around house was poor 5 recorded during Speedtests. Restarted Router x2. Turn off PC firewall. Still websites not work

  • judealdridge Jude Aldridge (@judealdridge) reported from Taff's Well, Wales

    Looks like @virginmedia having issues again!

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

    @virginmedia Thanks for the response and your patience. Yes, the TV is doing the same today but not as bad.

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

    My neighbour has the same issues. @virginmedia

  • SammyHarrison89 Sam Harrison (@SammyHarrison89) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @disabledaver @virginmedia It’s absolutely awful. In and out of connection all day, everyday regardless of lockdown.

  • PhilippaWillia1 Philippa Williams (@PhilippaWillia1) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia To be honest the telephone support from call centre was very poor. No answer to my request about customers who are vulnerable and who else I could talk to. Just “wait another 72 hours” .....It was email, Facebook and twitter messages that helped

  • LeeMGilbert Lee Gilbert (@LeeMGilbert) reported from Pontypridd, Wales

    @virginmedia trying always to contact a human to sort my payment . I’ve paid - you’re still demanding money . Phone gets cutoff . Link doesn’t work . Help me !

  • FerriesAndy Andy Ferries (@FerriesAndy) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia who do I call to sort my internet issues. Work and homeschooling is hard without internet! Diagnostic tools online are not sorting the problem

  • SAULYD_ saul (@SAULYD_) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia I cannot stress how ****** bollox your internet is. Honestly 1G would be 10x faster than your ****

  • JasperDommett 𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐃𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐭 (@JasperDommett) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @JohnsonGaza @virginmedia @VirginMediaCC @VMSolutions_ Having the same problem 😒

  • josh_wats09123 Joshua Watson (@josh_wats09123) reported from Dinas Powys, Wales

    @TCoxSODMG @virginmedia Test it on your phone gaming consoles always show slower download speeds but it wouldn’t be that slow 😂

  • BigDogWrestler Big Dog (@BigDogWrestler) reported from Newport, Wales

    @Annabanana8008 @virginmedia @O2 Good luck to you and don't take any sh*t, you should be fully compensated for the absolute inconvenience. We had a little problem with our provider and they where excellent, understood the issue and before we asked they compensated us.

  • BinuH_07 BinuH (@BinuH_07) reported

    @VMO2News @virginmedia Virgin Media broadband and TV services down, again, in the KT35EB area. Your website is reporting everything is OK but after ringing the customer services they said your engineers are looking into "a very complex" issue.

  • jordan_elkyy Jordan (@jordan_elkyy) reported

    @virginmedia Hi there, How do you find it acceptable to charge for a technician to visit, when there has been a problem with your wifi for over 72 hrs and a consistent problem with the wifi for months, when we already pay for wifi that isnt working properly?

  • AnitaRheaH2021 Anita Harris (@AnitaRheaH2021) reported

    @virginmedia No , can never get through - been cut off twice after holding for more than 30 mins each time

  • chris1892 chrisof1892 (@chris1892) reported

    @virginmedia A week without any problems and boom service issues are back again. Pretty red lights on the Tivo box

  • carolwilliamson Carol Williamson (@carolwilliamson) reported

    @virginmedia And that just says ‘heavy use try again later’………no help 🙄

  • MaryBoothOT Mary Booth (@MaryBoothOT) reported

    @virginmedia .. more hours then agent said she had posted complaint and I would get a call within 24 hours! Why should I believe them. I as ready to accept one made by the person who should have phoned me back on Sunday. Guess I’m leaving after all. Have good package organised elsewhere.

  • ChrisPo44928048 JustPokeNow (@ChrisPo44928048) reported

    @TimMcElligott4 @OffMyNoodles @virginmedia I am mid contract, so relying on their price increase to cancel. I will let the next DD process which covers my 30 notice to the end of the month and then cancel DD. I will follow up with a letter.

  • Mk3laserboy Simon (@Mk3laserboy) reported

    @virginmedia Message sent 18.13...time now 22.11??????????? Sort this bloody mess out, I have not got time hanging on the phone, waiting for bloody WhatsApp or stupid text service where your staff haven't got a flipping clue.

  • pressredrentals Press Red - AV, Sound, Lighting, Video, IT Hire (@pressredrentals) reported

    @virginmedia We've been getting really poor mobile reception at TF74JB recently. It's gone from full strength to bugger all signal. Almost as if you've moved from the better T-Mobile to the bloody awful 02 network....

  • wrecky_mec Bell530 (@wrecky_mec) reported

    @EE we are moving, we have an 18month contract, last bill is march, we want to cancel as we are going #virginmedia in our new build, who do we contact to have the internet switched off?
