    @virginmedia 2 full internet outages today whilst teaching lessons from home. Shockingly unreliable service.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • staceyjhubbard Stacey J Hubbard 🐧 (@staceyjhubbard) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia down again Cardiff, meant to have a lecture at 7, which isn't looking likely

  • 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.

  • HanneRuthHall Hannah Hall (@HanneRuthHall) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia wow your customer services aren't geared up for this at all are they? Almost a year on in virtual service, no phone service, only web chat. It took from 2pm yesterday to 9am today to get a response from customer services who couldn't help anyhow! Bang goes retention!

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

    @virginmedia 🙄 isn’t that just a lazy way of doing tech support. When I worked for you going back a few years, we were very customer focused!!

    @virginmedia @wizkidayo Virgin Media are the worst company I have ever dealt with. Won’t let me cancel even though they’ve not upheld their part of the contract.
