    @virginmedia I have had: -An upgrade -An engineer come and change the box outside my house -A brand new hub -New power line adapters -My connection tested on your end numerous times And yet the connection, 99 times out of 100, feels like total shit whenever I use anything intensive.

  • chris061183 chris (@chris061183) reported from Skewen, Wales

    @mb1984 @virginmedia glad it's not only me with this issue mate 😂. very poor

  • Jackson_SCFC Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia I just googled it and my issue is with my pc hooked to my router with an Ethernet cable, the WiFi is fine

  • JonJamesPhoto81 JonJamesPhotography (@JonJamesPhoto81) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia @johnmclaren1972 All I’m seeing are apologies but still no resolution to fixing issues, providing a decent service or looking after existing customers. I’ll be changing to sky next month.

  • _katyjames kat 🍊 (@_katyjames) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia pls fix my wifi

  • Jackson_SCFC Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Again, I appreciate what you're saying, but similarly I've had an engineer to my house and he said that within the parameters of his test, that my connection should be better than average. This is an issue with how my connection is being routed.

  • DragonEmbers Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

    Can't take Virgin Media to my new address because the estate is too new and they don't have Virgin Media in those streets yet. First world problems 😂

  • si_rees Simon Rees (@si_rees) reported from Margam, Wales

    @virginmedia My wife rang (as account in her name) eventually got through, and an engineer is expected in next few hours as I connection at all now!!Poor/no mobile signal at home as booster box is connected to your router, so even more inconvenience right now.

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    Spend hours waiting for someone to answer @virginmedia then they just tell me ‘wait till tomorrow and it will work’. And it never does, cancellation never sounded so appealing

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Port Talbot, Wales

    @virginmedia I was advised that I need to speak to a different department, by what feels like every department in Virgin Media! Whoever dealt with the house to house transfer has made an error.. and has somehow cancelled my service. But no department is taking responsibility to fix

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia Could you tell me what department I need to speak to about set up issues after a house move, and what time they close please

  • JonoTobin Jonathan Tobin (@JonoTobin) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia I was transferred numerous times. Then finally told that the person who set up the house transfer, has messed it up and somehow cancelled my access. With no solution on how to fix it

  • DragonEmbers Nat (@DragonEmbers) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia Having to pay an early disconnection fee because you don't run services there is brilliant customer service 😂

  • Jackson_SCFC Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia No, I've gone down this route before, just look in to your routing servers and or the bandwidth limit. Any time I do anything remotely intensive all packets start getting dropped. I'm on my knees.

  • Jackson_SCFC Jackson (@Jackson_SCFC) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia 200 down from what I can remember, I'm at work right now so I can't check but the speed isn't the issue. Also, I said "should" because based on his test, it's an above average connection, but in practice, it's wildly inconsistent in terms of ping, packet loss/timing.

  • _katyjames kat 🍊 (@_katyjames) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia We had a box fitted yesterday and the signal just isn’t working, it drops ever other minute or so and we can only get service in the room where the box is

  • BenSwansea Ben Lewis-Bloor (@BenSwansea) reported from Swansea, Wales

    @virginmedia my internet just suddenly went down 10mins ago. I was using it. Your test says it cant see the equipment SA1 2PQ

  • belock14 Beccy Blackmore (@belock14) reported from Aberavon, Wales

    @virginmedia I’m having problems getting through to your customer services, I’ve been trying since yesterday morning. This is unacceptable. Please can you send me a link for a web chat.

  • hedges1975 Richard Hedges (@hedges1975) reported from Gorseinon, Wales

    @virginmedia would it be too much trouble for someone to fix my landline issue, I can't receive incoming calls, yet your call centre agents tell me there going to ring me back on my home line and then cut me off!!! Can't ring me back if I can't receive incoming calls!!!!!

  • si_rees Simon Rees (@si_rees) reported from Margam, Wales

    @virginmedia hi my speed has died to a crawl this morning in the SA13 2 area of Port Talbot. Have reset the Super Hub etc. Help needed please.

    Virgin media need to fix their ****** internet I’ve had enough

  • binilsivan Binil Sivan (@binilsivan) reported

    @virginmedia 22/03/2022 - Technician turns up. Blames the first technician for not checking the inbound connection as it is dead. As per him it needs a network engineer who is very confident that it can be resolved and will come on 23/03/2022 and will inform next steps. 5/n

  • binilsivan Binil Sivan (@binilsivan) reported

    @virginmedia is the prime example of how not to do a business and run a customer care centre. Pathetic experiences for the last few months. They should be penalised for the unfair trade practices. 1/n

  • utddann2 Don dan🌪 (@utddann2) reported

    @Fodenszns @virginmedia It’s reality weird my ps5 is genuinely completely fine it’s my phone and iPad which do that and it kept going down earlier for no reason hopefully be better tomorrow

  • NicoGonnaGetYa Nico (@NicoGonnaGetYa) reported

    GGs to @virginmedia for ******* up 2 nights in a row and calling an early end to my streams and games. Explanation on its way or you just gonna ignore it again? According to your own website there are no issues yet all across the UK including NI the service is down! 🤡🤡🤡

  • BeanBolt BeanBolt (@BeanBolt) reported

    @ShaunKaneyy @virginmedia Getting issues myself mate, either my streaming PC drops, or my gaming PC drops....never both at the same time.

  • DaveDavetron Dave (@DaveDavetron) reported

    @virginmedia for two day in a row at around 12am my Internet goes down constantly . This is annoying.

  • Raks1108 Raakin (@Raks1108) reported

    @amssznn @virginmedia you’re ****. Shocking since covid started. Always shows weak security. Supposed to be the best around they are #virginmedia

  • KillJoyVT KillJoy (@KillJoyVT) reported

    @virginmedia fix your ****. This is the 2nd night in a row where my internet died. And it wasn't just for me. Other friends in different parts of the UK lost connection around the same time. All of them are VM customers.

  • keiran_991 FutKeiran99V2 (@keiran_991) reported
