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

  • drariba AribaIV (@drariba) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia It's the broadband wireless service that is affected

  • megsNewsome meg (@megsNewsome) reported from Gildersome, England

    @virginmedia The worst customer service I have ever come across. Apparently promises to call customers back for the 10th time means nothing.

  • craigs06 ¿craig? (@craigs06) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Ran a test on the super hub itself. Its resolution to the Wi-Fi is to move close to it. Am 6 foot from it !

  • fudino10 Gareth Futty (@fudino10) reported from Castleford, England

    @virginmedia Yes tried that no luck, been told there is a problem in our area again! Happens nearly every month. Getting fed up now every time I receive a letter from you it’s a price increase too.

  • heaton2111 John Heaton (@heaton2111) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia The service seems to have been interrupted again. Been fine all week.

  • heaton2111 John Heaton (@heaton2111) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for response. It seems better this morning. All I needed to know is that it was a Virgin issue, not an issue with my hub.

  • drariba AribaIV (@drariba) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Non..it's either running too slow or the service becomes completely interrupted for some hours only to reconnect spontanously later. It's slowing a lot of things down.

  • DanaiSapfo Danai-Sapfo Petraki (@DanaiSapfo) reported from Leeds, England

    Bloody Virgin Media can't make calls or text! Been like it hours now...Totally crap network!

  • LancasterHolmes Dan Lancaster-Holmes (@LancasterHolmes) reported from Rothwell, England

    To anyone thinking of joining @virginmedia, seriously reconsider if you value decent service. I think they’re crap.

  • harryd20200 Haz (@harryd20200) reported from Wakefield, England

  • NotRich5 Undisclosed Miz (@NotRich5) reported from Castleford, England

    @Barrage_Jeff @virginmedia Loads of people having same issues and they keep saying everything’s fine. Mines either cut off completely or running appallingly slowly

  • SaltBrewAdam Adam Findlay (@SaltBrewAdam) reported from Bradford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve requested it three times! It was sent apparently but I’ve never received it. Then I rang again..... and again. It’s beyond a joke. I text replied to the text message which had my address incorrect AGAIN and still I’ve received nothing!

  • fudino10 Gareth Futty (@fudino10) reported from Castleford, England

    @virginmedia They said they was dealing with the fault and was given no time scale. It’s just come back on now but over the last few days it keeps loosing signal for a few minutes then coming back on. Thanks for the reply.

  • driffield107 wendy driffield (@driffield107) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia this is getting stupid now, can't phone family or anything all day, this what we pay a fortune for crap service or in this case no service, can't even phone to find out what problem is, no info at all 😤😤😤

  • GM_Rod66 GM Rod #TeamNGU (@GM_Rod66) reported from Leeds, England

    Ok @virginmedia, I’ve been patient and I understand some things take time to fix, but it’s been a WEEK now. And today it’s not just slow, it’s stopped working. This is ridiculous!

  • GaryTaylor67 Woooh! Gary Taylor (@GaryTaylor67) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia No financial information, no passwords. Partly because I can never remember my password...

  • SS_Sutty Mohammad Ishaq Khan (@SS_Sutty) reported from Trident, England

    @virginmedia I have been having intermittent disruptions of my broadband since Friday. Come on now get it sorted. I'm missing out on the finale of line of duty. 5 weeks of wait for you guys to **** it up. 🖕🖕

  • torp771 torp77 (@torp771) reported

    @virginmedia when I call your Customer Service I’m told your “team is all busy, try again later”. My Internet has been down for 2 hours meaning my son can’t do online learning and I can’t wfh. Why do we pay for this useless service? Followed your online tips and none work @Ofcom

  • torp771 torp77 (@torp771) reported

    @virginmedia when I call your customer service I’m told your “team is all, you might like to give us a call later”. Your awful broadband has been down for the past two hours meaning my son can’t do his online schooling and I can’t wfh. What are we paying for? @Ofcom

  • McGarryLynn Lynn McGarry (@McGarryLynn) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks @virginmedia but the complaints team failed to respond to my previous request for help so I’m sceptical that they will help now. The social team is the only one that has even acknowledged my requests. Have you spoken to complaints team?

  • anisaaxo1 Anisa🤍 (@anisaaxo1) reported

    having virgin media is **** hecusse why am I using my own 4G at home

  • Mpountain Matt Pountain (@Mpountain) reported

    @Turnado @virginmedia Even better, told that we are not due to compensation as it’s an ‘area outage’ AND - as of next month they have put our monthly bill up by an extra £3.50. Looking into other providers now, can’t wait to leave quite frankly.

  • IMr_Rebel IMr Rebel-Facebook Gaming Partner-Sneak Partner (@IMr_Rebel) reported

    @virginmedia No issue showing at all over the weekend and still had poor internet

  • GhostlyFelis Sammy 🐳 (@GhostlyFelis) reported

    Waited for 50 mins to get through to the right department, for it to ring then now it's just silence.. @virginmedia let me cancel 😡

  • zigaziggle Gareth Smith (@zigaziggle) reported

    @virginmedia I have issues with both my mobile and second tivo box connection. I've been trying to get through to discuss for days without success....how can I get this fixed if I'm unable to contact you?! Absolutely disgraceful service.

  • N4Ztradamus Naz (@N4Ztradamus) reported

    @virginmedia don’t want to help with this?

  • swarbrick77 Steven Swarbrick 🇬🇧 (@swarbrick77) reported

    @virginmedia I signed up to broadband the other day. Due to very poor customer service I now want to cancel, however I can't cancel as you won't answer the phone and the people on your chat service don't seem to understand people and then cut you off. Do I just report or to the ombudsman?
