Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Winchester and nearby locations:
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England@virginmedia You’re not helping. You’re asking the same questions you ask every day. Yes, complaint raised. No, Virgin have given no reason why they keep cancelling. Next you’ll tell me you can’t do anything to help, which is exactly what your customer services say
-
Jack Deyes (@Jack_Deyes) reported from Southampton, England@Kelly_Jackson88 @virginmedia I was with them for a few weeks and all I had was problems with them. I’ve moved over to #BT and they are great so maybe check them out
-
Jo (@JoannecolesJo) reported from Eastleigh, EnglandJust want to recommend that people don’t go with @virginmedia for their broadband I’ve been trying to leave for 2 weeks and ‘they’re very sorry to hear that how can we help ?’ Just let me cancel for goodness sake’s
-
Sim Dendy (@SimDendy) reported from Romsey, EnglandApologies if you can’t get hold of me - @virginmedia have ‘blacklisted’ my phone even though I am not a Virgin customer. After many hours/phone calls they are still unable to explain why & have said I need to write a letter (!) to escalate further 🤯 - any better ideas out there?
-
Steve Forbes (@ForbesyPresents) reported from Southampton, England@tobygilles @virginmedia @bt_uk Never been offered a booster. Had the hub replaced but has made no difference
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England@virginmedia After waiting 24hrs for a response on WhatsApp I’ve once again been told I need to talk to another department. I waste more time waiting to speak with the “correct” department, only to be told they can’t help because of a third party completing the work. Absolute joke
-
Paul Grundy (@BrainTumourSurg) reported from Winchester, EnglandThanks to @virginmedia they install new broadband which worked for about 5 minutes. Now nothing. Follow all instructions to fix. Waited 5 hours this morning for the privilege and now 1 hour on phone still on hold Should have paid attention to the terrible reviews #wastedmyday 🤬
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England@virginmedia Still no call. Still no service. Still no customer support whatsoever from virgin media.
-
Trevor Webb (@WebbTowers) reported from Hedge End, EnglandHi Is there a problem in the SO30 area? @virginmedia
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Romsey, England@virginmedia So you’re not going to do anything about it, despite knowing it’s destined to let me down. Exactly the same attitude as the rest of virgin. The problem is, it’s taken almost 4 months. This is the issue; deep rooted - Virgin reps don’t care
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England@virginmedia Unfortunately no end in sight. I had to make another call to Virgin today. It took 40 minutes before I was talking to someone. It seems Virgin are not capable to get this over the line without me pushing them onto the next step and following up to make sure things are done. Poor
-
Alec Clapperton (@Alec2306) reported from Andover, England@virginmedia I have done all of this multiple times and nothing has come up. Today has been particularly bad where I lose signal every 5 minutes. I don’t need to keep doing the troubleshooting steps, I need a new router or an engineer
-
Sarah-Jane Finch (@formula1girl) reported from Southampton, England@virginmedia I “chatted” last week. Your only solution was me paying for a service I cancelled. I “chatted” yesterday to both departments that could apparently help. Neither could unless I paid for a service I cancelled. More chat? Which department this time??
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England@virginmedia It seems like nobody @ Virgin is willing to intervene and sort this out. As a result Virgin just keep setting install dates and cancelling. The cycle repeats over and over. Customer service don’t help, despite me calling everyday.
-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England@virginmedia This is the second time the complaint has been raised as the first one was ignored. It’s literally a joke and very ironic that I need to complain about the complaints department.
-
Spider (@KpRoebuck) reported from Eastleigh, England@virginmedia I have twice called to discuss the price of my package & twice, after eventually speaking to someone, they attempt to transfer me to customer services but cut me off. I've been with Virgin for over a decade but I'm being penalised for my loyalty. Please help
-
Craig (@Danzy92) reported from Southampton, England@virginmedia wifi issues for over a week. Run test every day for it to just say there’s some issue in your area. When will this be fixed? Costing me money to commute somewhere where I can get wifi and disrupting my work.

-
Rob Mcgimpsey (@Rob_Mcgimpsey) reported from Ampfield, England@virginmedia I raised a complaint previously, and then found out a week later that the complaint hadn’t been processed. I had to raise it again. It seems something deep-rooted is wrong with virgins customer service systems.
-
Simon Newby (@simonnewby) reported from Southampton, England@virginmedia I do have a reference bit this is exactly the standard (or total lack) of service I have received for the last 4 weeks, hence the open complaint. Not one person from Virgin has contacted me in any way in that time, despite at least weekly promises like this one.

Kingfayvoor 💜 (@kingfayvoor) reported@Morris_Monye And virgin media would even want to compensate you when they have network issues, Infact you will be informed ahead
-
paul d (@pauldewolfe) reported@virginmedia Really disappointed. Called to renew my contract but couldn’t get a good enough deal, so wanted to cancel. They couldn’t process it and told me to call back. I did, gave my name, email, ph number, bank details and last payment, but they still couldn’t pass security.
-
simon withers (@KalEl_WBS) reported@virginmedia You going to actually reply tho? You always say send us a DM and then never reply.
-
jackduk (@jackduk1) reported@VeeVeeFreeFox The very reason I'll never use @virginmedia
-
Brit Ian (@dearbrit_ian) reported@SandyofSuffolk You really are out of touch, unsurprisingly. Virgin Media getting fined £28 million for preventing customers from cancelling their subscription shows that this is endemic. Many businesses insist that you contact them via telephone to cancel, but they make it impossible to reach them via telephone. These days, many recurring payments are automated against your bank card so you cannot cancel it via the app, you have to cancel the actual card.

christopher Gunn (@christo43383549) reported@RichardMorrow10 @virginmedia Good luck with thay mate virgin are terrible with it i lost 2 days of Internet and 2 days work when WFH had to use my phone data sadly but they basically said , get on with it ...
-
ThatGoku (@ThatFoxGoku) reportedVirgin Media down again in my area. Was looking forward to streaming today. Good job it’s not my livelihood. Imagine being a big streamer earning thousands a day and this happens. That’d be a big compensation bill going to #virginmedia
-
Emma Thompson (@emmathompy) reported@virginmedia hi - I've done a few speed tests now that show I've got poor connection below what's expected (below 30mb) in my house but I seem to just go round in circles in my account to request a free pod and can't actually do it anywhere. Can you help please?
-
Becki (@bexxsta18) reported@virginmedia why is your service so bad! Broadband constantly going off, service checker cannot currently connect at the moment. No service issues reported……IT DOESN’T WORK!
-
Wix (@wixinho) reported@steppaCS @virginmedia They’re so ****. Since moving back I’m on EE and never had any issues other than a day outage when they were doing maintenance on the area.
