Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Walthamstow, England

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

  • declan1968 Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia What does an area outage mean? I pay Virgin about £150 a month for services. This is over the odds but I thought I was getting a reliable service and so went with it.

  • declan1968 Declan Higgins ☘ (@declan1968) reported from Southwark, England

    @virginmedia Oh yeah. Nothing that explains why it keeps happening though. Fix dates are usually meaningless. Feels like we're being rationed.

  • Ashley_Rhysss #AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, England

    The service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.

  • DerrickSWB Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia Can someone advise how I fix the Wi-Fi pod which isn’t working with my new router - I had to upgrade at extra cost to receive new kit as the lead time was shorter than getting a competitor in #ThisIsWrong

  • leighbooker Leigh Booker 🐈‍⬛ 3.5% #FBPE #FBPPR #GTTO (@leighbooker) reported from Welling, England

    @virginmedia It has just come back on. The annoying thing is your website said no problems, so I went through the usual, unplugging, checking cables etc. only for the website to be updated later. I should have learned by now.

  • BancoDePapa グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from London, England

    @TfL why is the 4G signal on the Central line underground only around the posh area's of Notting Hill Gate, Queensway and Holland Park? Since @virginmedia stopped their WiFi in April it's annoying that a major metropolis like London has no internet connections on a lot of lines

  • drawing_daily Steven Kraan 🐀 (@drawing_daily) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia internet down second day in a row, when will it work again?

  • WilsonJevelyn Dr Jan Evelyn-Wilson (@WilsonJevelyn) reported from London, England

    @VirginMedia wi-fi just cut out AGAIN! Annoying when one is in the middle of something. WHY!

  • _Lewis_A Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England

    @ameehan71 @virginmedia All new and reconnected. 200mb then next day nothing, comes on for a day then drops to 10mb. Talk to customer service and they don't have a clue. They also want over £400 for me to leave. Worst service I've ever known

  • _Lewis_A Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England

    So @virginmedia won't let me leave our contract despite their service continually crashing or not providing the speed it promises. Ultrafast broadband but getting nothing or 9mb download. Fed up with it now. Avoid them at all costs. #VirginMediaoutage #broadband

  • DerrickSWB Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia It’s arranged (3rd time) for engineer visit tomorrow 4-7pm…. I just hope they don’t randomly cancel again

  • DerrickSWB Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia Green up/down arrow flashing and router restarting

  • DerrickSWB Derrick Brown (@DerrickSWB) reported from Lower Clapton, England

    @virginmedia The uplink is failing and it’s being denied access to the network as it’s poking and failing

  • BancoDePapa グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from Haringey, England

    @virginmedia can I have the customer service number to cancel my broadband.... There are seemingly better deals out there for faster services

  • shah4569 Shah 🦅 (@shah4569) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia All these problems. But still fleecing money from us.

  • shah4569 Shah 🦅 (@shah4569) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia bring back customer service to the UK. Philippines is a joke!

  • stuart_foy foy (@stuart_foy) reported from Haringey, England

    lying in bed and I've just realised I can't turn off my lights because @virginmedia has been down since I got home. this is the future, lads

  • GlueWhichBinds Mark Kelly (@GlueWhichBinds) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @jeffsprogress @virginmedia @Hyperoptic I was with Hyperoptic for 4 years, not a single outage I can recall. Swapped to Virgin Media last autumn because they offered a cheaper and better deal. Had nothing but problems since. And now they have the temerity to hike the bills. When I can swap back to Hyperoptic, I will.

  • paulstevenlewis 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

  • markselondon Mark 🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@markselondon) reported from Blackheath, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down again this morning in SE London, got through to customer services and they advised the outage expected to be fixed by 12th April. No compensation offered and I would have to pay a penalty to cancel my contract.

    @grok would it be true to say that the UK's worst phone and internet companies are @virginmedia and @O2 ?

  • CarlPuttnam utterly_genuine_Carl _Puttnam (@CarlPuttnam) reported

    @grok Are @virginmedia and @O2 the UK's worst supplier of phone and internet?

  • CDPL1 Chris L (@CDPL1) reported

    @virginmedia Absolutely no trust in Virgin Media now. Overseas call centre less than useless. You just take my money every month and provide a service that usually fails 2 or 3 times a week. Alleged that you notify me of failures but you don't see them.

  • SpoutHandle Gary (@SpoutHandle) reported

    For such a BIG company, that was downright appalling from @O2 and @virginmedia this morning trying to just get onto Priority never mind Ticketmaster. Shambles!! #LewisCapaldi

  • emma_tr4_rhinos emma_tr4_rhinos🦏🇬🇧 (@emma_tr4_rhinos) reported

  • emma_tr4_rhinos emma_tr4_rhinos🦏🇬🇧 (@emma_tr4_rhinos) reported

    No sound for full 80 mins no attempt to fix or let us no @SkySports @virginmedia joke of a service

  • Sherl06303 David Holmes (@Sherl06303) reported

    @virginmedia Guess what - a bit more weather about and Sky Sports Cricket goes down again. Done all the “it’s your fault/reboot” stuff to no avail. Virgin Media really are pants sometimes.

  • alexcossor Alex Cossor (@alexcossor) reported

    @virginmedia @KeithFollett I have same issue - on cable TV on virgin media TV box

  • ChrisAv11542658 Chris Avery (@ChrisAv11542658) reported
