Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Watford and nearby locations:
-
Steve Cavinder (@StephenCavinder) reported from Bricket Wood, England@virginmedia do you think it’s acceptable for a customer to be waiting for more than 20 minutes (and still waiting) for one of your agents to answer the phone? #justasking
-
Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England@virginmedia Not good enough! I would believe you if this was the first time it happened but I am not paying £53.75 a month for this awful service and unreliable service… not when there are plenty of providers offering more for less.
-
Mel B (@crimimel) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England@virginmedia Hope we’re getting a refund for lack of service as daughter is trying to write her 10,000 word dissertation but very difficult to do without internet. Should not advertise deals to new customers if you don’t bother sorting out the network issues. Cancelling
-
Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Harrow Weald, England@virginmedia If you remember I told you that it was likely that work occurring at the cabinet in our street caused our issue. The engineer visited and fixed the issue caused by that work. So, it was an engineer/maintenance caused issue.
-
Jonny Paul (@StrummerJonny) reported from Barnet, England@virginmedia is there any point, why not just give up? #virginbroadband down again, x4/2 days and at least once a month you are guaranteed #broadband #outage
-
Dipak (@dip2ooo) reported from Harrow Weald, England@Gusubeda @virginmedia My broadband is also down HA7 0800 status number keep telling me there's no problem in the area
-
Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, EnglandRequested to cancel my contract and told my account doesn’t exist anyway. Thank you Virgin Media.
-
seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, EnglandDidn’t realised upgrading our @virginmedia internet would cripple my home office. Wireless @HP printer can’t find the network and I have to get new boosters for the other rooms in the house. So frustrating - I’ve wasted so much time trying to sort it all out. To no avail.
-
seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia We’ve spoken to eight people to try and resolve our internet issues.We’ve ordered new boosters because the new service isn’t compatible with the old ones.We’re a ‘priority customer’ - the new boosters still haven’t arrived…So frustrating. Your service is appalling.
-
Spencer Millbery (@SMillbery) reported from Harrow Weald, England@virginmedia Service page says no issues.
-
Mark Ryan (@MarkGRyan) reported from Ealing, EnglandOnce again @virginmedia let us down with internet in W13 area ... not a good service at all
-
Laura Cook (@LauraVCook1980) reported from Hatfield, England@virginmedia disappointed after 10 years of being a loyal customer that I can’t pause my monthly payments for 11 weeks while I’m not at home and no one using the broadband or TV!
-
John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England@virginmedia Done that, and still doesn't work
-
Francesco Marchet (@MarchetF) reported from Brentford, England@virginmedia how do I get in contact with you? My appointments have been cancelled twice now. Such a poor service!
-
seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia Is this how you treat your ‘priority customers?’ During a cost of living crisis, we have chosen to stay with you, yet you can’t pull your finger out to look after your customers. I work from home but can’t fully use the service I’m paying for due to your incompetence.
-
Michal Siewniak (@MSiewniak) reported from Welwyn Garden City, EnglandDear @virginmedia & @VirginMediaCC A day to forget, wasn’t it? All day problems with my internet connections. Thousands of people affected. In my case, I needed the internet to work and it seems like that the issue was resolved this afternoon. How can I claim compensation?
-
Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England@virginmedia broadband is up and down again, today in WD17. Are you continuing to experience general service issues ?
-
Ross Harvey aka The Project (@rh_theproject) reported from Hillingdon, England@virginmedia Not ******* good enough ,you charge me the earth promising the best Gig 1 and I have had problems ever since taking that upgrade ,
-
TinaReadingEditor (@TinaReading) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia No and that's the problem. I need it for my grandsons 😪😪😪😪😪
-
BuG$y (@browngaybitch) reported from Harrow Weald, EnglandAbsolutely rubbish customer service from @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV @VirginMediaCorp waiting for over 2 hours, first call the advisor hung up after I asked to speak to his manager and the second advisor CANNOT give me a reference to the call or let me speak to a manager

🇬🇧 Rob @No-Bull-Politics 🇬🇧 (@bull_robin56713) reported@virginmedia I'm sure I'm not alone in having asked you to reduce my service, such as cancelling a second set-top box, in order to reduce my bills. As you can see here I asked for my bills to be reduced in Jan 2024. Yet notice how those bills have crept up again ever since. There has been no increase or improvement in the service you provide to justify this. According to my analysis, despite having gained a better paid job recently, my net income is down 4.2% compared with 5 years ago. Like many, I am going to have to tighten my belt, and those bills that increase without any prior warning must be the first to go.

Joe Duley American voiceover person (@Americanvoiceo1) reported@virginmedia @virginmedia AGAIN! All services-completely out! No explanation (although app says 'everything is fine') It's deceitful info. No BB OR phone. CANNOT ring customer service-at all. Now my life's mission is to escalate w/ CISAS because it's costing me financially/professionally. SMH
-
Neo ✨ (@NeoRobins) reported@virginmedia are abysmal. After harassing us for weeks by knocking at the door we decided to switch to them. Only to be left without wifi for almost an entire month. And customer service keeps making empty promises, telling us that it’ll be installed the next day.
-
Paul (@paul_gibbo921) reported@virginmedia @Bomber19631 Been really bad as of late can’t wait to leave
-
amy simpson (@amy_jo_23) reported@O2 since you joined with @virginmedia my service has been shocking can’t even try and pay my bill with a problem or issue!!! I’m hearing the same thing from lots of people also!!!!! Sort it out
-
Del 🌈 (@derrickca) reported@virginmedia WiFi has crashed out 3 times already this morning. The service is appalling. Trying to do some really vital work. Rebooted 3 times now. Getting seriously peed off 🤬
-
johntleberry (@hassinator) reportedlove this. all that capitalist guff about 'the consumer is king' it's just another lie. we are marks and the tories let us get shaken down by brands. glad to see those rats at @virginmedia held to account but they should be paying compensation too.
-
Trina S 💙 (@BrownEyedGirlGB) reportedBy December 2025 @virginmedia ongoing service monitoring determined I needed a free hub to stabilise connection. Lost track of how often internet has gone down for few minutes or so then come back. However, in last month it has been out for hours 3 times. 2/?
-
B M50 (@BM502s) reported@biggle1908 @C_Midd99 Rkid had the same issue with his Sky package & price, so switched to Virgin Media, now saving £70 a month with faster broadband. Couldn’t be happier with it.
-
Pete Samuels (@PeteSamuels5) reported@DorzetRob @Artemisapphire Ditto here. We're between 3 towns. Sod all signal. Had to get 'wi-fi calling' on the mobile phones, to make mobile calls via the broadband. Smarty seems to work OK. Old copper land line now shut off by Virgin Media.
