    @TheRealHavokHD @virginmedia Not at the moment mate but I'm looking at when BT & Vodaphone hit the area, if its this year then it'll be a switch Also think I'll go around all the neighbours etc telling them about issues etc advise them to do the same. I'll make flyers with my ThinkBroadband trends on 😡

  • huwgat Huw Llewellyn (@huwgat) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Tried Virgin Community. Virgin rep encouraged me to take up tech package at a price. After spending 6hrs yesterday and 2hrs the day before, I am still in the same situation! This not a good service with your so-called experts!!!

  • johnnybach175 John Bachelor (@johnnybach175) reported from Weston-super-Mare, England

    @virginmedia That’s terrible. Are you saying Continuously for 24 hours? Because we’ve all lost over 24 hours in the last 3 days already?

  • 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.

  • emilyjane73 LauraT 🔶 (@emilyjane73) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Need to cancel my new order. It wasn’t done correctly and given the total lack of being able to contact you I have lost confidence in VM. Cannot contact anyone to cancel though, what a nightmare. Just taking too much of my time to make switching worthwhile. #painful

  • 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!!

  • TheRealNigsy Nigsy (@TheRealNigsy) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia seem to be having issues in Newport area anyone else effected or do we put it down to the bad weather?

  • 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.

  • niamunna1 Nige ⚡ (@niamunna1) reported from Newport, Wales

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

  • huwgat Huw Llewellyn (@huwgat) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Thank you Virgin Media for being absolutely useless sorting my email problem. 8 hours in total on the phone with so called tech experts and still doesn’t work properly!!!🤬🤬🤬

  • 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

  • 76DarrenJ Darren Jones (@76DarrenJ) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia what a ******* joke over 30 mins in a cue and then when I get through they say they can’t hear me and hang up 🤬🤬

  • katejones_cymru Kate Jones (@katejones_cymru) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Hello. I’m waiting for the service to be reconnected, any chance this can be sped up as I’m wfh and need wifi ASAP

  • Jones1Enfys Enfys Jones (@Jones1Enfys) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia customer contact centre, been hanging on the phone for an hour! Reporting scam, breach of data!!!

  • 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.

  • 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!!

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

    @virginmedia I’m still unable to get a decent Wi-fi signal at the back of the house.

  • PaulHunter1969 Paul Hunter (@PaulHunter1969) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia please can you DM me? I can’t get through to the help desk.

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

    @virginmedia I’m trying to connect to my own and it won’t! They’re the worst piece of equipment you e ever supplied. The previous one was better!

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

    @chloemphoto @virginmedia If it connects to other WiFi networks from the same source ie @virginmedia then the problem is within your router itself and not any device connected to it. Your router is faulty and needs replacing. You said yourself that the router is faulty and goes offline if even moved.

    @virginmedia Yes I was within contract but they told me I wouldn’t be charged if I cancelled early as long as I had an engineer come out 3 times within 30 days, I had already had issues twice where the engineer came out within 15 days and then 10 days later the streets internet went down ?

    .@virginmedia I've been kept on hold for 43 mins before being disconnected and again for another 53 mins before being disconnected. Can someone reach out to me so I can get up and running? Not a great start for a new customer.
