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

  • HarlamTK Tom “Harlam” King (@HarlamTK) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia And I can’t raise a complaint on the site without having an account, which I don’t have, so that is a pointless endeavour as well

  • AdamPagett3 Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia finally after 5 days without a service no streaming tv, being unable to work from home and having to sit in Saturday teatime eaiting for engineer while family go to Halloween party It's finally fixed Now the impossible part making contact to discuss compensation

  • Churchill0782 The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia all services in the WF1 area of Wakefield have been down all day and looking like 6pm to be fixed. Will you be applying any credit to people's accounts?? Good will gesture and all that! #wakefield

  • andyksheffield Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

  • SamWatt30745054 Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for

  • guyrleech Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @vmbusiness strike yet again!😠 Not only are they charging me £7/month for 4G backup that doesn't work, they are now charging me £4 for paper bills that I never asked for. Oh, and still say I owe them money despite me overpaying due a to a red letter that they took by DD later

  • SamWatt30745054 Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

  • guyrleech Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @KevEdwardsRetro I've been with them for years (Yorkshire Cable before that) but changed to the @vmbusiness service to get 4G backup only to find that it doesn't work when their device is in modem mode. Unable to get through to them though - worst support/customer service I've ever experienced

  • Bexwa Rebecca (@Bexwa) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia The TV that it glitches on cant reach the box to get it wired in (but its only 10 ft away) I can't hard wire my laptop in. It goes off all the time! And then keep texting me saying you are coming for the WiFi pod after speaking with customer service. Im paying a fortune for this

  • andyksheffield Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk Wish I could enjoy this but my so called 500mb service is so poor I’ve virtually been without internet for a week. Finally your team viewed it as urgent because I do work from home on Zoom and…an engineer is coming on Tuesday. When BT Reach put full fibre in my area it’s bye bye

  • csijo jo bell (@csijo) reported from Doncaster, England

    @virginmedia - we (YOU) have a PROBLEM!!! Why have I been charged £147 for a contract of £64 even after speaking to someone on 25/09 (when bill was received) who assured me they would escalate the issue and get it resolved?? #unhappycustomer #overcharged #problem

  • AdamPagett3 Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia That checker like my service doesn't work

  • Churchill0782 The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  • SamWatt30745054 Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia No it didn’t help, what is the score SL V England John

  • guyrleech Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reported from Wakefield, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Thanks. The 4G backup not working since the service was installed

  • a8dullah_mulla Abdullah Mulla (@a8dullah_mulla) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia well done 👏🏽 new way of resolving complaints! Offer a resolution that you know customer won’t accept so you can pass on to an adjudicator… all in a record time of 8mins!!!

  • paul_phillips83 Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia the cheek or virgin media staff complain about virgin router dropping out constantly call raise a complaint and tell them router is disconnected from network and request a hub 4 as been told this is what’s needed I get told I have to upgrade to 1 gig for new router

  • SamWalker03 Sam Walker (@SamWalker03) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been hung up on three times this morning by your contact centre! All your willing to do is pass on the “feedback” do you have anyone customer service trained I can speak to ?

  • paul_phillips83 Paul David Phillips (@paul_phillips83) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia been on hold 15 minutes your agent been back to me yet again same telling me I have to pay extra why do virgin think that if you charge extra this will fix an issue #badcustomerservice actually get it right first time to stop repeat calls

  • AdamPagett3 Padge 👌 (@AdamPagett3) reported from Featherstone, England

    @virginmedia @Virgin Terrible service

  • dcb72 Damien. (@dcb72) reported

    am not best pleased with @virginmedia in the uk. we told them my mum had passed and needed to pass the account as it was to my dad. they then told us this was possible but there would be a larger bill to cover the use of service from mam to dad. this isn't acceptable

  • simplyure Urenna (@simplyure) reported

    It has truly been a very frustrating 5 hours on the phone with @virginmedia customer service and I'm so glad I am cancelling this account. Good riddance.

  • LawTRICIA Tricia 💙 (@LawTRICIA) reported

    @virginmedia I got a new hub a month ago and an ‘upgraded’ speed! Im paying for a non existent service and now tied in again.

  • ChrisLoco_ Chris Loco (@ChrisLoco_) reported

    @virginmedia Ok trying now, will come back to you in half an hour. I’ve thought the issue has been the hub for a while, I’ve offered to even buy a Hub 4 from your customer services but it seems like no one will let me lol

  • leegarryallen LAllen (@leegarryallen) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, area outage again! Sunday - Thursday last week and now Tuesday and we're off again. Compensation kicks in after 48 hours yet I'm now in day 6 of service loss in 10 days. It's just not on.

  • ChrisLoco_ Chris Loco (@ChrisLoco_) reported

    @virginmedia Hey. It feels very warm yes. It was offline for a while last week while I was away as our Ring devices were offline. This is after months of intermittent service and back & forth

  • Alexand95906231 Alex S (@Alexand95906231) reported

    @virginmedia , what a joke, 3 hours and no response from your online support to do a simple house move application.(this is the 2nd attempt after the failure to process it last week) Maybe should just switch ISP to @SkyMediaUK

  • HowcroftKay Kay Howcroft (@HowcroftKay) reported

    @virginmedia When will this outage be fixed

  • zemuogele83 Giedre Clarke (@zemuogele83) reported

    @virginmedia Numerous times. Last time few days ago. You are saying no issues with signal coming to router. But WiFi keeps dropping out numerous times a day. You said that you can't guarantee WiFi signal strength due to walls etc. However my router is right next to me..

  • kitchentowel Ben (@kitchentowel) reported

    @virginmedia I've spent several days trying to tell you I'm moving. Called, tried on website, WhatsApp. I've cancelled my direct debit and you're not getting another penny out of me as I have no time to continue to try to get you to move or cancel my services. Had enough.
