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

    @virginmedia I have done everything you have asked me to do regarding my security issue. I have responded to your texts as requested. But you never respond as you say you will. Meanwhile, more letters and texts arrive. It is futile.

  • robkbangor Rob Knowles (@robkbangor) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia we would like to cancel our contract with you but your website is sending us round in circles and it’s impossible to get through to your call centre. You’re taking advantage of the lockdown to rip people off!! 🤬

  • GreggC_CC Gregg 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@GreggC_CC) reported from Newport, Wales

    @rupinjapan @virginmedia I've lost my connection tonight myself. Guessing it's a network wide issue tonight

  • dlrwills Dan Williams (@dlrwills) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia Internet is terrible lately. Good job I have mobile data otherwise I’d be living in the dark ages.

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia #virginmedia #virginbroadband #stayconnected. I am still a customer at the moment - however, despite txts to a number given to me - at 9:30am - no one has got back to me! Very disappointed

  • Phoebe98935634 Phoebe (@Phoebe98935634) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia the state of your customer service is appalling. Your sales team pick up within 2 seconds but can’t get hold of ANYONE in troubleshoot for 2 days #Disappointednotangry #richardwhatyoudoing

  • TaffieBaggie Chris A. Stott aka Taffie Baggie (@TaffieBaggie) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @EmmaKlieve @virginmedia Heard there was an outage today from my complaints handler as I'm 6 weeks into investigations in why my hub still failing.

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @TomMockridgeVM. @Virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph. Despite trying to get information - after 24 hours, I have got nowhere trying to discover why my bill of £34 will rise to £64 next month! No extra service or work required!

  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    Can’t wait until our @virginmedia contract comes to an end the worst broadband product and with genuinely the worst customer service - avoid always

  • leohawkins123 Leigh Hawkins (@leohawkins123) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • PentwynP Pentwyn & Llanedeyrn Pickers (@PentwynP) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @virginmedia @WeAreOpenreach @cardiffcouncil @LornaLwyl @Keep_Wales_Tidy I believe this particular one is openreach, just highlighting this is an issue with both companies. One volunteer has previously written to virgin media posting spent wiring with the letters, but this issue it seems is not being addressed adequately across the whole of the UK

  • KitaW Kita Williams (@KitaW) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia No. And we have called so many time and reset the box. Had 3 new computers from work so the issue is you! My broadband is frankly ****!

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia Thanks! But it’s really not just me - there must be others - at this difficult time - who will be having to pay more for just the same service!

  • DodgeyDog DodgeyDog (@DodgeyDog) reported from Clevedon, England

    @Virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph. Despite trying to get information - after 24 hours, I have got nowhere trying to discover why my bill of £34 will rise to £64 next month! No extra service or work required!

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

    @Nyge_79 @virginmedia Same here. Abysmal service. I'm often in a Zoom with 40 other people and I'm the only one who drops out.

  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    Good luck @virginmedia must have the worst post sales customer service in the known universe

  • JasperDommett 𝐉𝐚𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐃𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐭 (@JasperDommett) reported from Cardiff, Wales

  • PhilippaWillia1 Philippa Williams (@PhilippaWillia1) reported from Penarth, Wales

    @virginmedia To be honest the telephone support from call centre was very poor. No answer to my request about customers who are vulnerable and who else I could talk to. Just “wait another 72 hours” .....It was email, Facebook and twitter messages that helped

  • TonyG1974 Anthony Gosney (@TonyG1974) reported

    @virginmedia should it take 5 hours on hold and in chat to get someone to cancel my contract. Wage thieves. Direct debit canceled

  • 2130keith Keith House (@2130keith) reported

    @virginmedia Snap had no internet today, again it now seems a regular issue if your unlucky enough to be a customer ! Still as many of you have said I’m sure when the credit comes through it will make it easier !!!!!!!!! 🤬

  • stephanieh2o Stephanie (@stephanieh2o) reported

    Kickin it old school watching live TV. Don’t like it. Please fix my internet! #virginbroadband #virginmedia

  • GavlarMushing Gavin Mushing (@GavlarMushing) reported

    @virginmedia Sort it out. Bills go up. Service falls off a cliff. Biggest con going is Virgin’s compensation system, never ever ever end up with bills reduced due to the poor service. #thieves

  • ANRKJosh ANRKJosh  (@ANRKJosh) reported

    @CloudflareRadar @virginmedia The Current Resolution to the issue (via VM Corporate/Business) isn't brilliant: "Virgin Media engineers re-seated fibre cards and reset hub equipment to restore service. TTL was extended as a workaround to maintain stability whilst a permanent fix is implemented."

  • tigger650 Debbie Rowbotham (@tigger650) reported

    @virginmedia we are in Spain on holiday and have no mobile phones service provider for the second time today Is this part of the same issue?

  • JamesRead78 James Read (@JamesRead78) reported

    @virginmedia How come I can watch YouTube through the V6 box but the internet is broken? Surely it's all running on the same thing?
