    @virginmedia wifi’s down yet again!!! don’t pay money for your broadband just for it to be shut down all the time!

  • lfmortgages lisafletchermortgages (@lfmortgages) reported from Barry, Wales

    Terrible service from #virginmedia for 3 months+. Spent hours on the phone for the goalposts to be moved again. Apparently if you are residential customer intermittent service in a 24 hour period is acceptable, even if that is 10 minutes Bye bye 🖐🏻🖐🏻#bonvoyage

  • katierobertson0 KatieRobertson (@katierobertson0) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia I have had NO service at all for nearly three weeks. No that's not helpful

  • katierobertson0 KatieRobertson (@katierobertson0) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Still not working

  • soozles_ Soozles 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@soozles_) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia internet has been down for two days can't seem to speak to anyone to resolve the issue???

  • katierobertson0 KatieRobertson (@katierobertson0) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Hi yes I am I just want to speak to someone to see if I need and engineer or if there is a problem in area seems impossible trying to speak to anyone. Thanks

  • katierobertson0 KatieRobertson (@katierobertson0) reported from Barry, Wales

    @virginmedia Ok thanks I have gone through the link a few times asking me to book engineer every slot I try tells me unavailable, I have rang just getting answer message saying problem in area but has been since Saturday I would like to speak someone if possible? Thanks

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

    @virginmedia If I dont have a response in 48 hours to my formal complaint made a month ago, I will be cancelling my service. Ref number is COM104057176.

  • MHswans Mike Houghton (@MHswans) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

  • katczeks K a t C z e k a j (@katczeks) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @tomsyb @virginmedia 4 days later...are you any further in resolving you issue? Regards, <KC

  • DarronKnibbs Darron Knibbs (@DarronKnibbs) reported from Caerphilly, Wales

    @virginmedia why have I been waiting over an hour for someone from your technical support to contact me on chat and chatting with your first line? #poorcustomerservice

  • msrupertbear Lynne Reynolds (@msrupertbear) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    @matyd88 @virginmedia Not great service at all.

  • ItsLau_xo 🦋Laura 🦋 (@ItsLau_xo) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    So we pay over £100 a month for full @virginmedia package and fastest Internet going, but is it so so bad. It keeps cutting out all the time or going slow.

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

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Also your text back thing doesn't work. Can't wait to take our business elsewhere

  • TheMMEvent Mike Anthony Moreno (@TheMMEvent) reported from Cardiff, Wales

    How awful is the @virginmedia advert, the one with the kids singing. Use auto tune next time

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

    @virginmedia I'd rather you just responded to my complaint that I made 2 months ago.

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

    @Spudsghost @EE The @virginmedia crapness is to do with their router I think it’s useless and can’t send the WiFi through paper thin plasterboard or handle the TV signal

  • mrspenceresq richard spencer (@mrspenceresq) reported

    @virginmedia We haven't had fully functioning broadband for weeks in KT6 & KT7 and you keep delaying the fix date. Can you give us a straight answer as to the problem and when it will be fixed? #losingmyvirginIT

  • ClaireMawdesley Claire Mawdesley (@ClaireMawdesley) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John after our tweets yesterday, i got a text to say my engineer appointment was on hold whilst a network issue was investigated. Then everything worked all day! I've woken up today and it's all off again. Do you know anything further? Will the engineer still come tomorrow?

  • harleytait taitonater (@harleytait) reported

    @virginmedia I have been having mad internet problems lately on xbox, was wondering if you could check for anything in my area, also is it possible to get IPv6 on my area?

  • EmikoKazzakeu Emíko *^-^* (@EmikoKazzakeu) reported

    @virginmedia I spent 2 hours on the phone yesterday and had zero help so yeah not gonna be doing that one again

  • AlanKarsberg Alan Karsberg (@AlanKarsberg) reported

    @virginmedia Part 1 - On Monday evening my Catch up, On Demand, and search and discover services stopped working. I called your customer service team. I spoke (again) to someone very pleasant and friendly and seemingly helpful. She tried a few things to restore my services but without success

  • Look15147889 Look (@Look15147889) reported

    @virginmedia is there a way someone can manually check it I can get your service. There is a virgin media box in the road at the end of my street, plus all my neighbours have it, buy yet your online checker says its not in my area yet.....

  • yardley_fam Chel Mas (@yardley_fam) reported

    @virginmedia Your internet quality in the B26 area is shocking. I can't believe we pay so much per month for such a shabby service.

  • mark_impactedu Mark Morren (@mark_impactedu) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John @virginmedia the fault has been with us for 6 weeks or more. The engineer explained to me what needed to happen in order to rectify it. I don’t understand why it is taking so long, nothing is so complex that it takes this long to fix. By the 26th Feb it will be 8 weeks

  • MrTea Stig (@MrTea) reported

    @virginmedia Trying again this morning. 20 minutes in so far. Piss poor
