  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Both wired and not, advised to turn off and back on, diagnostics checked at your end, engineer visit, resulted in all new v6 boxes (x2) and a new internet hub also internal wiring checked and re-connected. Issue seemed to be resolved for a while but after then goes off altogether

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Nice going, @virginmedia - called to check how my complaint and SAR are progressing as they were requested on Thursday and I didn’t get the same day call back promised by the TM. Called back today to find 1. Complaint not set up. 2. SAR not submitted. AND....

  • pops_74 St.Ives.Great.White (@pops_74) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @liammorris91 @PedMeisterYT @virginmedia Same as mine. 200 next to the router and every step I take I lose about 40. Once im@in my kitchen literally 6 steps down the hall it’s know to go to 4g

  • Chasmeister Chas D (@Chasmeister) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @HeyRachieface @virginmedia It really is piss poor. I even get tv interference thrown in for good measure 😒

  • sb208 Charliesays (@sb208) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia It’s been going on for months, I have had all new boxes and hub but it still goes down. I have been told to keep my local engineer up to date. There is nothing the help desk can do we have tried everything

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Actually, I’m done. Issues resolved but if this is how good your customer service journey gets, I’m cancelling my services.

  • ObsrvntPheasant Chris Roberts (@ObsrvntPheasant) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia We had a 6 day internet outage at the end of July. I’ve just got the bill for next month and there are no credits on it to account for the outage - we’re still being charged the same amount.

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Business... Was told before our forced upgrade because we had been with you for years... we were out of contract so you dodnt have to honour anything.. we upgrade.. still shit

  • adamxgardner Adam Gardner⚡ (@adamxgardner) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia It says there are no known issues with my broadband

  • OrdinryGirl1987 OrdinaryGirl (@OrdinryGirl1987) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia new broadband routers now working, speeds dropped massively when I can get internet, tried for 14 minutes to get through to your customer service (being charged thanks for that) and can’t get access to my account as your team registered my email address wrong. Help!

  • adamxgardner Adam Gardner⚡ (@adamxgardner) reported from Llanyrafon, Wales

    @virginmedia why have you sent two random people to my street today, cold call and come in my property due to internet issues and NOW MY INTERNET DOESNT WORK. WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING AT.

  • WynfordE Wyn Emanuel (@WynfordE) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    As my @virginmedia bill is now creeping up towads 130pcm I called to cancel or negotiate. A small discount was offered. I was surprised how little effort was made to retain a customer. (‘OK, thank you for calling’). So I’ll have to switch.

  • KieranPolls Kieran (@KieranPolls) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia 20 minutes waiting to escalate a complaint that wasn’t even set up just to get talked over and cut off. No basic understanding of GDPR it seems as my SAR wasn’t actioned.

  • BottleShopDan Daniel Williams (@BottleShopDan) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia Still not working... 3 days.. wont hold my breath

  • slim3110 Emma Giles (@slim3110) reported from Cardiff, Wales

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MariaGozario Maria do Gozário (@MariaGozario) reported

    @Virgin is the worst Internet provider in Ireland, they customer support is horrible, they advertise is beautiful and cute but it doesn't reflect the reality of this company. Coming to Ireland the suggestion I will give you, stay away from them. @virginmedia

  • Sprenger10 Paul Sprenger (@Sprenger10) reported

    @virginmedia Wifi has gone down in the middle of the weekday for scheduled maintenance. Using mobile data to join NB meetings. Can we get compensated?

  • kamilabianchi Kamila Bianchi 🇧🇷🇬🇧 (she/her) (@kamilabianchi) reported

    @virginmedia I'm having internet issues since yesterday, it's been on and off. In the website it says the service is ok in my area, but it's clearly not. How can I get this checked?

  • malta1970 karen dawe (@malta1970) reported

    @virginmedia Now on day 67 - What an absolute JOKE this is. No one can give me resolution. Paying for a service that can not be used. **** Turpin wore a mask when he robbed people. Virgin media just pass you around people and say it will be sorted in 3-5 days.

  • david_mccavid Juce Brayne (@david_mccavid) reported

    2019: screaming at people on the edinburgh mile because we couldn't find somewhere to eat 2020: screaming at a shed in a heavy scouse accent because i had bad phone reception while i was trying to sort my virgin media contract out 2021: [redacted] 2022: idk arson or sth

  • Qu1etSpace Adam (@Qu1etSpace) reported

    @virginmedia How can one of the largest internet providers leave wifi down for 4 days and even suggest repairs may take months in households that rely on the internet for jobs? Pretty poor tbh.

  • LeoNak84 Leo Nakhimoff (@LeoNak84) reported

    9 hours spent on the phone to @virginmedia this week alone after they mucked up house move, generated a bill 4 x normal amount and have no service. Yet after 2 hours on the phone today, going through ‘security’ 6 times, they hangup having resolved nothing. Time for work 🤯

  • ltookey1 TOOKS (@ltookey1) reported

    @virginmedia Honestly you lot are jokers. Offer me a package at 6pm Tuesday. Call back 11am today to accept offer. Only for you to add over a tenner to the package. Then when I say cancel at end of contract 10aug you say I gotta pay until 21 aug! I'm trying to save money in this climate!

  • DangleLager DangleLager (@DangleLager) reported

    @Chris_avfc_85 @virginmedia Thanks Chris. How thoughtful of Virgin to not tell their customers that they’ll be massively inconvenienced. If I’d known I could’ve gone to the office. Terrible customer service.

  • ZZoetarnet Zoe Tarnet (@ZZoetarnet) reported

    @virginmedia there seem to be issue with WiFi and TV in the OX3 area. When will this be resolved please?
