Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Writtle and nearby locations:

  • TheRealMrDrew G (@TheRealMrDrew) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia That issue fixed itself. However, this evening we're getting the same problem. This has been going on for the past week on and off. I'm now told that the issue is estimated to be fixed by 2pm tomorrow - the service we've received from Virgin has been particularly poor of late

  • Inactive95 Neil (@Inactive95) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Your internet is still coming and going away. I need a tech out here to fix the problem as WiFi is connecting but no access to internet.

  • StaceyRebekka Stacey Karlsson (@StaceyRebekka) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia The engineer didn’t turn up today. I’ve been on hold for hours and still have no services. Please can someone help us?

  • chrisMU19 Chris (@chrisMU19) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had no internet for 6 hours. I’ve followed all online steps to fix it and none of them worked. Been on hold to 150 for 2 hours now. Can someone please assist?

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Do you intend to issue my refund or penny pinch?

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    Anyone else really struggling with slow speeds over the last 10 days with @virginmedia. It's been spot on for 2 years now and then 10 days it seems something has happened. Lucky to get over 10Mb now 🙈

  • pauldurie p2.0 ✊🏻 🏳️‍🌈 #BLM (@pauldurie) reported from London, England

    @PippaCrerar @virginmedia If you're using a Virgin router I would buy another one as they're useless Main issue I found was they don't switch between 2.4GHz/5GHz very well If you want stronger signal then switch off 5GHz

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I have better things to do with my time than phoning @virginmedia The system should pick up on this. Virgin’s system is quick to chase me regarding the return of a bloody hub. Absolutely atrocious service.

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia still having problems in sE6 london

  • FatherFantaskis Dave Taskis (@FatherFantaskis) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Your phone line is saying you do. You had the system out of service for an area update for 24hours now. Who does that ?

  • StaceyRebekka Stacey Karlsson (@StaceyRebekka) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia The engineer didn’t turn up today. I’ve been on hold for hours and still have no services. Please can someone help us?

  • FatherFantaskis Dave Taskis (@FatherFantaskis) reported from Romford, England

    Hey @virginmedia you’ve been messing with our broadband in #RM11 for long enough. Get a grip, #revert the failed change and give us back our service. Why do this mid week when people are #WorkingFromHome ? Do it at a weekend.

  • IIndigoMouseRH Rachel Hayden (@IIndigoMouseRH) reported from London, England

    Internet went down yesterday and suppose to of been fixed at 5pm once again no internet or landline. @virginmedia any chance of this actually working??

  • mariobucolo Mario Bucolo (@mariobucolo) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia continue to having problems on broadband se6 london. 1 hr waiting someone answer at the phone or on chat. I seriously think to cancel my contract

  • kilomilesy colin miles (@kilomilesy) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia 11 days without a landline and 17 texts giving a time and date estimating the fix to be done by and failed every time. Oh well let’s see what tomorrow brings! Crap Virginmedia

  • rob_green86 Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England

    @westbrookdanni @virginmedia Up to 2 weeks ago I didn't have a bad word to say about them. The pure fact you can't get through to someone is the worst of it. Happy to take your money and trim your internet speeds!

  • tonywiseman1976 Tony Wiseman (@tonywiseman1976) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia The auto response system is terrible & apparently someone should have responded to my refund query & guess what? No one has bothered.

  • YOGACTIVEYOGA YVETTE OBERTELLI (@YOGACTIVEYOGA) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia I do need further assistance as my router is 10 years old and my interbet is on an off daily i lost so much work over this as neef to teach online and even my children are unable to do their homeworks. I tried to book an engineer to come out but your page is not working either!

  • chrisMU19 Chris (@chrisMU19) reported from Romford, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’m having issues connecting to WiFi this morning. Phone said I had weak security. I updated the security online, the warning message has gone but WiFi still not working. Can you assist please?

  • StaceyRebekka Stacey Karlsson (@StaceyRebekka) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia No. We still don’t have any internet or TV and haven’t spoken to anyone. @VodafoneUK have sorted us out with extra mobile data. Can you share an email address so I can make a formal complaint please.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Deefeebee01 Didi Fiona (@Deefeebee01) reported

    @virginmedia No they did not... nor or they able to advise what the issue is! I was not informed whilst placing the order and only found out because I called to ask where the credit agreement was, as I hadn't received an email. Very disappointed!

  • maverickhas Hasan Khair (@maverickhas) reported

    @virginmedia My frustration is not directed at you personally - it's the customer service experience - my whole chain of conversation clearly denotes what I have already done. Nobody can get through on call centres, so what are we supposed to do? It is costing me through the roof to tether...

  • JenMartian Jennifer Martin (@JenMartian) reported

    @virginmedia What??It literally asks me for my postcode and gives that response. And the same when I call up, asks for my postcode and then tells me sorry you are experiencing intermittent problems in your area. (It’s actually complete outage) So how does that work? Please explain...

  • chriswoods84 Woodsy (@chriswoods84) reported

    @virginmedia Not unless you can give me the booster I'm entitled to for free? I've quite enjoyed being on hold for about 4 hours this week. Great hold music 🙄 Loyal customer too. So annoyed

  • girishsolanki Girish Solanki (@girishsolanki) reported

    @SureshChohan @virginmedia rubbish, been having issues all week. Keeps dropping

  • JamieMoreloson Jamie Moreloson (@JamieMoreloson) reported

    @virginmedia I mean going by all of twitter it wasn't my property, so if I have issue at midnight and nobody is around and you have no record what's the point in getting in touch about it?

  • N07WOD J No (@N07WOD) reported

    @virginmedia You do realise that there has been resolution to my internet problem? Gave up yesterday after an hour been on hold, on hold again now. But got a call from You to ask if I wanted to know about some Black Friday deals! That person couldn’t help me either awful service.

  • JasmineIbikunle BOOMINGBLACKS (@JasmineIbikunle) reported

    @virginmedia It says no network. Day 2 No WiFi. 2 days not being able to work. 🙃

  • Lohoris Lohoris (@Lohoris) reported

    @virginmedia Hi sorry, we've been fighting this battle for too long. 6 chats, 4 calls. Last call said they would fix it, and we got a wrong contract again. I've already contacted a new operator, and I'll cancel this contract. You are the only one who tried to help, but it's a drop in the sea.

  • DavidEzra66 David Ezra (@DavidEzra66) reported

    @virginmedia About three hours ago I received the message: “Hold on while I connect you to someone who can help you further.” Since then, nothing. Thanks for the other option. Will try if current phone call (on hold, naturally) doesn’t bear fruit.
