Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Watford, England
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Watford and nearby locations:
-
Amanda Birrell (@blackheathma) reported from London, England@MartinSLewis It is the worst company I have ever dealt with and I’m now actively discouraging others to use Virgin Media. Cancelling is also very difficult and deliberately so
-
Mark Armstrong (@markatpt) reported from London, England@virginmedia you have now postponed an installation scheduled for 4th November to Christmas Eve! Can’t see that happening. Maybe someone actually based in the UK might bother to contact me about this? Minded to cancel otherwise. Not acceptable service.
-
Jacob Smith (@JacobWSmith10) reported from Camden, England@virginmedia @skytv can you please sort out the sky sports app. I cannot login in using my virgin media account. It will not load the password page. I don’t really see why it logs me out periodically in the first place.
-
Vijay Jois (@vijayjois) reported from Mill Hill East, England@virginmedia what is the problem with #broadband this morning?
-
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!
-
Brenda (@joybrenda) reported from London, England@skytv due to Virgin media issues, couldn't watch the final episode of " and just like that" , screen pixated. When will you repeat so I can watch/record. #virginmedia
-
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.
-
Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England@virginmedia Of course I have. My email is correct on online account. I get email bills correctly. But my complaint file has an extra character to email address and so I’ve never received acknowledgment of my complaint.
-
Alan Hodge (@hodgie_hd) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia down again in SW18 what on earth are we paying for and all your site can say is area problems as usual it really is pathetic #tradingstandards #virgindown
-
Mark Armstrong (@markatpt) reported from London, England@virginmedia You didn’t reach out sadly and I’ve now cancelled the installation. Having spoken to someone clearly at home with her baby screaming in the background I have zero confidence that you are able to help us.
-
TinaReadingEditor (@TinaReading) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia No and that's the problem. I need it for my grandsons 😪😪😪😪😪
-
Roger Highfield (@RogerHighfield) reported from London, England@virginmedia My broadband is down again - area21. Any idea of when it will be fixed?
-
Peggy Dyer (@Mrspdyer) reported from Barnet, England@virginmedia @mundaytom Not true. No response to complaint letter sent August and when we’ve rung “manager will call you in 3-5 days”. Been told that 3 times. Not one callback. Shambles.
-
Gabriela Lungu (@GabrielaLungu) reported from Kensington, England@virginmedia it’s been over one month of really poor or inexistent broadband service in London W11. I hope you won’t charge us for the last month.
-
Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Mill Hill East, England@virginmedia So you cancel the service months if not years before the 4G replacement is a really extensive alternative, while increasing your prices and telling customers “sorry, but that’s tough”. I understand your team is just at the sharp end dealing with flack, but that’s really bad of VM
-
seanhannam (@seanhannam) reported from Chesham Bois, England@virginmedia Why should we call up again for the ninth time? We’re a ‘priority customer.’ You should be calling us and making amends.I’m a consumer tech journalist with 25 years’ experience. Your customer service is the worst I’ve ever encountered. You simply don’t care about your customers.
-
Burnley Dave:Not woke just human.💙🌈🍺🇪🇺 (@tlcko1882) reported from London, England@journokeith @virginmedia Good as in they acknowledged your existence was what I meant. That's how their "customer services" is set up, they don't have the staff based in the UK to deal with it and all they can do is what they are doing.
-
jrd1982 (@thefitebegins) reported from Hillingdon, England@virginmedia Yet again Virgin Media is down and yes I have tried the checker. Why are services with VM constantly going down across the UK?
-
🆎 (@_Brady1_) reported from London Colney, England@virginmedia Why are my sky sports channels not working but others are , getting error CS2004 . I’ve reset the box numerous times and checked the cables .. on my other box in another room all channels working fine ??
-
Andy (@1SLToo) reported from Rickmansworth, EnglandMerry Christmas to all at @virginmedia who have left all of us in WD3 area with no TV or Internet for over a week (predicted) and probably longer over the entire festive period, moving to sky in the new year due to your continuing rubbish service and customer service

-
. (@AlexparkerI) reported@MelJanie @virginmedia I’ve just left virgin media. Their customer service is abysmal
-
^Gavstar^ (@Englandgav) reportedHey @virginmedia want to know why I get bills for myself and someone else? My hub is linked to there account and address so I can access there account/bills and upgrade there package. Your customer services seem unwilling to help. GDPR issue
-
Irate_Jobbie (@Irate_Jobbie) reported@AwTroon Many, many years ago, I called virgin media to tell them I was leaving. They asked why, I said you don't offer value for money anymore. Sorry you're leaving but that is the best price, you already have. It was expensive. No problem, bye now. Next day, virgin cold calls me. Asks me to confirm who I am. I said no, you are calling me, you should know. Guy was annoyed as he was phoning to offer me a better deal. I said fine, I'll call the same retentions team I called yesterday to leave and I'll know it's actually virgin. He got angry, said they can't offer discounts, only he could and if I didn't confirm my details, he couldn't give me the offer. I just told him I could no longer do business with virgin due to such poor security procedures. He seemed very angry about the fact I wasn't willing to give personal identifiable information to a stranger cold calling me. Never paid them a penny again.
-
Lee Harris (@LeeHarris) reportedHey @virginmedia, my internet has been down since 6pm yesterday and you still haven't managed to fix it. FFS! SORT IT OUT!
-
Pure Hearted Human (@Graelwyn) reported@Ang_Jones72 It doesn't matter much now. As I intend to take my life as what virgin media don't know. Is that my mother and father abused me most of my life. And maybe since I never got her unconditional love as she loved only through money. I wanted to use the only thing she gives me now. Since she wouldn't call virgin to explain. As she cares more about my brother's partner's mother having cancer. Than that I may have cancer. So virgin media get their payments. And I have finally given up. That is all.
-
Graeson Laitt (@Laitty) reported@virginmedia @virginmedia Can you please confirm whether the Sky Sports+ TV fault I reported on 15th August has now been fully resolved? I want to watch @ColU_Official tonight on Sky Sports+ through my Virgin TV service, so I need to know that the previous problem has been fixed.
-
dEBT shredder (@andybearz) reported@robert_grieve @virginmedia Yup Terrible customer service Seems to be once they have you signed up they no longer give a ****
-
Bev Terry 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 (@Bev2810) reported@virginmedia you don’t bother looking after loyal customers do you ? want to offer my renewal for more than what I can get as a new customer
