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

    @virginmedia I followed the steps there is nothing wrong with the equipment and it doesn't list anything wrong in the area however at the times it goes down other people with virgin in the area who I know also experience the same issues

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

    @virginmedia The Wi-fi is rubbish, slow and crap service up stairs. Often I have to connect to extenders. It’s a two story average house. Your routers are rubbish. The older ones were much better!!

  • James76clark James Clark (@James76clark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Having text the number you gave me, they referred me back to the technical phone number as they cannot help! So, let’s get back on the phone for the 3rd hour, in the hope I don’t get cut off, again! #shambles

  • davidtoliver David Oliver (@davidtoliver) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia What’s your customer service telephone number? Can’t find one anywhere. Don’t want a “Message Bot” - I want a human to sort out our problem. Wife’s a GP trying to provide patient care from home -can’t because of broadband problems. Don’t tell me to reset the router!!

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

    @virginmedia Yes it seems to go down at random times throughout the day usually late morning and during the evening

  • simmo_phillips Simon Phillips (@simmo_phillips) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Avoid at all cost’s! A terrible company!

  • jamesbrinning James (@jamesbrinning) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia hey guys, are you having issues with your broadband service around roath in cardiff (Cf24)? Our download speed appears to be okay but upload is non existent?

  • soozles_ Soozles 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@soozles_) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia and the signal on box office has gone again! Bloody ridiculous 😡

  • dmitchell1975 Dan Mitchell (@dmitchell1975) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia problems all day with BB. Have rung twice, been cut off when call was transferring. Working from home is challenging today!!

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

    @virginmedia That status page states there are no issues, the issues are apparently the walls in my house and my neighbours electrics even though it's been fine for the last 18 months

  • Cartergaz Gary Carter (@Cartergaz) reported from Maesycwmmer, Wales

    @BigTempUK @virginmedia Errr. Dude. This is a bad experience.

  • IanRawlings2 Ian Rawlings (@IanRawlings2) reported from Newport, Wales

    Got to love @virginmedia, having spent 1 hour 15 minutes on the phone waiting to speak to someone in their technical service, finally get through to be told they close in 15 minutes nothing they can do 😳 on the WiFi black spots better off getting something from Amazon 🤬🤯

  • James76clark James Clark (@James76clark) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Trying to get through to @virginmedia for an hour, only to then be cut off once being transferred! Poor show! Desperate to speak to someone as we have had our cables cut by resurfacing works!! 😡😡

  • simmo_phillips Simon Phillips (@simmo_phillips) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia @markgoldbridge @lawrence_bury Avoid at all cost’s! A terrible company!

  • meribelman Peter Williams (@meribelman) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia I would happily self serve online, via a browser or app, as you incessantly encourage me to do, but when the page says “oops something went wrong, we’re unable to change your package online”, its very frustrating. @O2 will help you soon!

  • simmo_phillips Simon Phillips (@simmo_phillips) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia worst company in the world! Still won’t cancel my contract and charging me! In the hands of Citizens advice now and then the Police!

  • TetDavis ʇǝʇ🖤 (@TetDavis) reported from Cardiff, Wales

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

    @virginmedia your customer support is absolutely crap!! Spoke to Salim who was just as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle!!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • GoaterBilly Billy Goater (@GoaterBilly) reported from Strines, England

    @virginmedia well done, after over 10 years with you, Virgin Media have sunk to the their lowest level of service and support ever. Roll on November and the end of my contract. Appalling, ignorant, clueless, almost as bad as BT.

  • Lucy_mcquire Lucy McQuire (@Lucy_mcquire) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely disgusting customer service. My dads had intermittent tv and internet for weeks and you’ve done nothing about it. Someone contact us!!!!

  • nastane_purdy vonda (@nastane_purdy) reported

    @virginmedia It's a shame u aren't as responsive with the online chat as you are with social media & trustpilot.I also tried web chat when I wanted 2 cancel my contract.Guess what? 1 hour after Chatbot said they would connect me to someone No response! And 42 minutes on hold on a phone call

  • Sarah_ElizaM Sarah🔸🇪🇺 (@Sarah_ElizaM) reported

    @virginmedia Don’t need to do that as the same thing is happening with other phones in our household and with other local people. Which is why I’d like to check service status in the area but have been unable to do so on your website.

  • x_mass x_mass (@x_mass) reported

    @virginmedia Your network is down where I live I went to check the service status page & its returning a 404 or juming to other pages I assume your status page is suffering from in effect a denial of service attack caused by too many users wanting to know status I can use wireshark to look?

  • AngelaMaher Angela Maher (@AngelaMaher) reported

    @virginmedia can you plse tell me when broadband will be back up in Oxford? Your webpage for status checking not working (assume due to amount of traffic) and had no broadband all day

  • janebaker18 jane baker (@janebaker18) reported

    @virginmedia It has come back, but intermittent, completely dropped out again on all our devices. Same happened yesterday around the same time. Today much longer that it was totally down

  • StuartE93396704 Stuart Evans (@StuartE93396704) reported

    @virginmedia So existing customers are not important enough to look after? Why is a new customer treated better and considered as being more important than myself. Offers should be for all new and who are once out of contract no?

  • AbbeyBhatty abbeybhatty (@AbbeyBhatty) reported

    I am very fed up as I am having to resolve issues within Virgin Media Business and have lost a number of working days I could have been committing to running my business. If I am not compensated or my bills discounted then will start looking elsewhere for a headache-free service

    @virginmedia The link just says 400 bad request when I click on it
