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

    OMG forever having internet issues with #virginmedia even have my own direct line to an engineer.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia my mum left in May and she’s had three bulls since then can’t get online as her account number is no longer recognised can you help pls

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

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

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

    @virginmedia I tried texting that number and got no answer. I just tried calling the helpline, was on hold for about 20 minutes, was asked for all my contact details and then your operator told me her system is down and I should call back in 2 hours!!

  • 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!

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

    @virginmedia Our internet has been down completely since early this morning (not intermittently like the automated message is suggesting) and I still don’t know if it’s a problem in the area, or just our own property.

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Yes, I understand that issues happen, but it would be nice to know more than just “we’re currently having issues”. If someone told me “a bolt of lightning from that thunderstorm you had hit the cabinet and fried it” or something, we’d probably be a lot more understanding.

  • 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

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

    @vmbusiness @Forbes I'd just like our service to work ...

  • 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.

  • 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....

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

    @virginmedia Yes, I understand that. But after signing up to SMS updates four times via two methods, I’d expect to at least be receiving texts telling me that the fix times have been pushed back.

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

    Thanks @vmbusiness & @vmbusinesshelp We are rolling on to day 6... with no service... And no call backs... Thanks for being you

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

    @virginmedia No, I didn’t get any estimates. Just a generic “we’re sorry you’re still having issues, our engineers are currently working on it but it’s taking longer than expected” (something along those lines at least).

  • 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.
