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

  • Dazc090861 Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia In Dec, you sent an email thanking me for making changes & what I'd get from now on & it'd cost over twice as much as I was paying. I never asked for any changes & in one of the many, calls I've made, I was told that your Oomph bundle department had shut around the same time.

  • 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?

  • Dazc090861 Darren Coomber (@Dazc090861) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia My original package wasn't due to end until July 22. I've spoken to every department you have, over & over again...I go over the same old explanation with your people every single time & still, nobody in your company will help...I've spoken to over 3 managers & still nothing!!

  • Dazc090861 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!!! 😠😠

  • Welsh_Saint14 Ryan Davenport (@Welsh_Saint14) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @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

  • SATempest Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia But the team is impossible to contact!!! And when you do get in contact it’s always someone else’s problem, ‘oh I’ll just pass you onto my colleague’ etc. I’ve WhatsApped the help number too and been told it’s a long wait and told I can ‘get on with [my] day’ - absolute joke.

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia online chat not working, on hold for hours and not responding on WhatsApp?! How do I get hold of you to cancel my service ffs...

  • 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.

  • GarethLloyd18 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⚽️🏉Gareth Lloyd 🏉⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@GarethLloyd18) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia awful customer service

  • SATempest Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia I phoned THREE weeks ago to cancel our contact, there was a dispute over a cancellation fee. A manager was supposed to call me back, I’ve rang 5 times since to check as heard nothing- each time was told ‘within 48hrs’. Move out next Friday, what am I supposed to do????

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

    hey @virginmedia I have a contract that says my price is set to Jan 2023 and I negotiated the deal with customer retention as not the account holder bit authorised to talk on behalf of the account holder and now I've got customer services flat out lying toe on WhatsApp (1)

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • KeeganBig Frank Keegan (@KeeganBig) reported

    I have often complained of poor customer service from @virginmedia it is therefore only right that I praise the excellent customer service provided by Jason. Many thanks.

  • frigginhiggins_ Fiona Higgins (@frigginhiggins_) reported

    @MaggieS24 @virginmedia I’m in a similar boat as you (no internet for 1 week, 3 days of work missed for the household, etc). Consider filing a complaint with Consumer Line (or your local equivalent). Virgin is going to try and have you file complaints internally so they can keep it on the long finger.

  • mstorey2015 Mark S 121115 🇮🇪🏁😷 (@mstorey2015) reported

    @frigginhiggins_ @virginmedia Says there are ongoing issues in my area.

  • mclean_tracy Tracy McLean (@mclean_tracy) reported

    Awful broadband service from @virginmedia require a booster to get full coverage in my flat & they want to charge me £5 a month! Sky & BT give their boosters for free… could be looking for a new provider I think
