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

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia You do have a point @foxinthebox2010 though because they were asking if customers would be willing to pay £20 one off fee, then £15, £10, £5...which implies they could afford to upgrade for free but just want to squeeze more money of out their customers. We’ve had awful service

  • calmspacecoach David O'Hanlon (@calmspacecoach) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Yet again I get fobbed off. Complaints didn't respond. I had at least six conversations with your texting service and 789 and yet - nothing.

  • EamonnCurran2 Eamonn Curran (@EamonnCurran2) reported from Ealing, England

    Are they F###ing serious. @virginmedia Twitter is only about publicity never actually doing anything to resolve the issues .PS 2 weeks later and the is is still open.that engineer must have a really long drive !!!@

  • TheTallBlonde1 Stefan Selby (@TheTallBlonde1) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @virginmedia thanks MM. Still not working but already called the customer services desk. Got an appointment for an engineer on Tuesday.

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia It was a customer insight survey sent to me by email. Gives you no chance to really voice your opinion as it’s just pushing the new box.

  • jeverington James Everington (@jeverington) reported from Camden Town, England

    @pardel @virginmedia I haven’t been able to register with Virgin Media for days. There seems to be a silence from @virginmedia on any issues.

  • JohnJohnb471 John Briggs (@JohnJohnb471) reported from London, England

    Just want to say after being a long standing @virginmobile and @virginmedia customer for many years I had it with their appalling customer service and excessive charges. Don’t use them people they don’t deserve our business

  • RobbarnesModel Rob Barnes (@RobbarnesModel) reported from Watford, England

    @virginmedia I’m on my 2nd box now and it’s doing the same as the last one, picture cuts out and says no signal, when I reboot says starting up for ages then no signal

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    ...customers who have been with @virginmedia for a loooooooooooooonnnnnnnnggggggg time and bloody feels like a looooong time. Service at the weekend was crap (again). Expect a phone call tomorrow to the complaints dept.

  • gorgeousuk anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from London, England

    @foxinthebox2010 @virginmedia The £20, £15, £10 down to £5 smacked of desperation really! Just give me the bloody box. We’ve been with you long enough!!!!!

  • turboeddie08 Eddie Seber (@turboeddie08) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Btoadband not working, postcode Rm10 8JT

  • deborah_bonetti Deborah Bonetti (@deborah_bonetti) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. The link says there are problems in the area and they should be fixed by 8pm but that’s a whole day using my mobile data instead of broadband! I am really disappointed.

  • pantsant ANT (@pantsant) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Much like many people’s internet and tv service tonight!

  • Sammi__B Sammi T (@Sammi__B) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia virgin mobile customer in a travelodge who is advertising virgin WiFi- why do I need to pay for this when I am on your network- surely it should be a hotspot!!! 😡

  • pantsant ANT (@pantsant) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Unlike your service, which never arrives!

  • pantsant ANT (@pantsant) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Not the Month of good service though! 3 hours and counting of no TV or Internet! #poorservice

  • jdaukes Johnny Daukes (@jdaukes) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia It’s down. Expected fix by 16:00.

  • pantsant ANT (@pantsant) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia spent much of the last hour switching things off and on still no internet or television! What the F do we pay for!! Oh yeah Piss poor service and no answers!

  • pantsant ANT (@pantsant) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia Shame she couldn’t smash your terrible service

  • MonroeJoe Monroe (@MonroeJoe) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Doesn’t say there’s any problems in the area, all connections are tight, power supply connected, but I’ve got all green lights on my router and no internet at all

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ChromaticRanger Martin Stickley - 8/100 (@ChromaticRanger) reported

    @richardbranson Any tips on how to speak to a real person that will be able to help me with a Virgin Media account query? All of your chat bots can only deal with superficial queries not real world ones.

  • shmalloway Andrew Ian Halloway (@shmalloway) reported

    .@virginmedia ive been trying to change my package for a week using your site, but it’s constantly breaking. Now been slapped with a massive bill because I couldn’t change before the contract ended. I can’t even load the contact information page. Help.

  • ChromaticRanger Martin Stickley - 8/100 (@ChromaticRanger) reported

    @virginmedia Out of interest. Where is this phone number advertised. I have searched the main virgin media site for many hours and never seen it before.

  • HanSolonoid Han Solonoid (@HanSolonoid) reported

    @virginmedia thought you might want to know I called to cancel and they lady said okay, and cancelled me. Great efficiency.

  • lord_splashy Lord Splashy (@lord_splashy) reported

    @virginmedia Your team have said they added me to fraud alert on your system as I’ve called so much to get the issue resolved! Oh and they also say I owe money for my media account - which I don’t actually have yet! Even the call handler said neither her or manager know why!!!

  • daveyjalfrezi @daveyjalfrezi (@daveyjalfrezi) reported

    @virginmedia And it’s done again….green lights on the router No response on the service check page using mobile data

  • james_woolmer James (@james_woolmer) reported

    @virginmedia No it’s the actual service it just sends me from one place to another and then ends the call without giving me the option to talk to someone. All I need is a hub that don’t rattle any more

  • ChromaticRanger Martin Stickley - 8/100 (@ChromaticRanger) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson Maybe copying in the boss will get some kind of reaction? This feels childish but I'm getting zero help from your chat bot systems.

  • Kaidanniwatori Stephen Pearlman (@Kaidanniwatori) reported

    @virginmedia I am no longer a Virgin Media member. Hurrah!! Yesterday, I called your company to switch off just my TV services. My intention was to retain your wifi . But once again due to incredibly poor handling by your company, I decided to cancel everything. Happy days!!

  • Rugby187_Gaming Rugby187 Gaming 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@Rugby187_Gaming) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve spoken them already. Again, I have spoken to many departments (possibly all of them) over a 12 day period and spent a total of over 12 hours on the phone in total trying to fix your mistakes.
