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

  • SamanthaOvens Samantha Ovens 🏳️‍🌈 La! (@SamanthaOvens) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @Paul_Tags @virginmedia There are consistent issues with Virgin Media going down in London SW11. It seems to happen on a weekly basis. I’ll definitely be changing provider.

  • GemMatthews Gemma Matthews (@GemMatthews) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Thanks…what about some kind of compensation for poor service? How do I claim for this?

  • GemMatthews Gemma Matthews (@GemMatthews) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for clarifying. Anyway I’ve now been without broadband and landline since 8.30am, back from unplanned trip to office for their wifi to find that service is not going to be fixed until 9am tomorrow! This is the second time in a month I’ve been without service all Friday. 😫

  • _jessgamble Jess Gamble (@_jessgamble) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia the service has dropped a few more times since this morning but is currently back on. it has now dropped over 5 times today, and it takes over 15 mins to be connected again

  • N16Breda N16Breda #VaccinesWork (@N16Breda) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Yep. And they can't fix it. 24/9 resolution target came from VM rep on Forum...

  • Robertjp0121 Robert Józef (@Robertjp0121) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia issue with Router (wifi) — no internet and intermittent connection; pls fix this bloody issue!!!!

  • SamanthaOvens Samantha Ovens 🏳️‍🌈 La! (@SamanthaOvens) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia It’s up and running now though I favour it a temporary fix as it’s a repetitive issue in Wandsworth and needs addressing. I pay a premium as opposed to going with a cheaper provider to avoid precisely this scenario. It’s far from a satisfactory service.

  • Jamesmeredith James Meredith (@Jamesmeredith) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia #internet So glad I left Virgin a year ago. I have much better speeds at half the price. Virgin are expensive and customer service the worst I have ever experienced.

  • RogerHighfield Roger Highfield (@RogerHighfield) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia l have lost the internet - any issues in Greenwich/area 21/SE10 and, if so, when can l get my life back!?

  • eatcheeselouise MarshmallowMedia (@eatcheeselouise) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia This has been escalated for 5 months now. Your escalation team dealing with emergencies doing nothing. Can anyone else help on this matter ?

  • SCcrowther Simon Crowther (@SCcrowther) reported from Camden Town, England

    @plonkymiff @virginmedia I had the same issue and they were just as ridiculous

  • superpaddiepads The Misadventures of Stevie P (@superpaddiepads) reported from Bromley, England

    @bywarner @Jenn7_4 @virginmedia Their customer service has always been appalling. Hence why I’ll never use them for anything again.

  • skip_0889 Jay (@skip_0889) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia your service is so appalling I’d like to know how I can leave without being harassed for charges please. We manually paid a bill and cancelled a direct debit to change bank details and you have messed up so badly I’m done. #fail

  • SamanthaOvens Samantha Ovens 🏳️‍🌈 La! (@SamanthaOvens) reported from Wandsworth, England

    Here we go yet again. Quelle surprise @virginmedia down in SW11 for the past few hours. Warning to anyone in South London, avoid them as your broadband provider. It truly is an awful service.

  • EmmaBurnell_ Emma Burnell (@EmmaBurnell_) reported from Walthamstow, England

    Dear @virginmedia this really isn’t the day for my Internet to go down. Sort it out. NOW.

  • FatherFantaskis Dave Taskis (@FatherFantaskis) reported from Romford, England

    Hey @virginmedia when will you be upgrading the #VirginMediaConnect App to be compatible with your #Hub4 routers ? They’ve been out at least a year now and I can no longer manage my network through the app.

  • GemMatthews Gemma Matthews (@GemMatthews) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Seriously? This is appalling- so I’ve had to pay to travel to work today because you didn’t provide the service I am paying a small fortune for. And there is no compensation?! Seems a very one sided arrangement

  • fujimotomitsuya Mitsuya Fujimoto (@fujimotomitsuya) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia She offered to send an engineer. I could not provide any available dates for next few weeks because of my work commitment so I suggested that I would be in touch when I know I have some time available. She said then she would have to close the complaint log.

  • SamanthaOvens Samantha Ovens 🏳️‍🌈 La! (@SamanthaOvens) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @LisaPeace3 @virginmedia Exactly this unfortunately. They’ll just have to put up with me exposing them on here everytime they have ‘technical issues. X

  • jim_dawes James Dawes (@jim_dawes) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia WiFi is down in the London SE7 area yet again - that's the 3rd time this month. What's the 'engineering fault' this time, eh? Is it incompetance, apathy or a combination of the two? When will my service be resumed???

  • i_cants Ian cantlow (@i_cants) reported

    @virginmedia shocking service an absolute disgraceful customer service and for the money you charge you should be ashamed of yourselves, no internet yet again and that's apparently following an upgrade in the are! Yes I've called customers service!

  • saltertonarts SaltertonArtsReview (@saltertonarts) reported

    @virginmedia Sadly not. It was an outage of several days that we weren't notified of when we signed up late last week. Not possible to work from home so now using annual leave. But we are within the cooling off period so will likely give you another call to cancel.

  • badjeroo SayWhaat? (@badjeroo) reported

    @virginmedia Just used that number. It’s tedious and more frustrating than calling your cust service. How can my issue be followed up on when the bot asks me twice if i need help with my mobile.

  • Saladboxman Jerome O'Callaghan (@Saladboxman) reported

    @virginmedia Broadband out since 9am this morning. Originally 1.30pm fix now 11.30pm! Any proper update rather than ‘working hard to fix it’?F009128496.

  • Shakeel416 Desperate Father & Husband (@Shakeel416) reported

    @virginmedia my wifi is down in Windsor. What’s the issue.

  • iampaulnorris Paul Norris (@iampaulnorris) reported

    @virginmedia I have called and spent 2 hours earlier today which is why I went to Twitter to complain. You have added no value and have wasted my time. I am going to cancel all VM services and three mobile phone contracts. As i said before piss poor

  • jamescarlin77 James Carlin (@jamescarlin77) reported

    Evening @virginmedia, my pre-install was supposed to happen today. At 4pm I was told by CS the team would definitely be here today, anytime up to 6pm. That’s been and gone, live chat goes into infinite loop passing me back to the bot, and text chat not connecting to anyone. Help?

  • azeem Azeem Azhar (@azeem) reported

    Waited six weeks for @WeAreOpenreach to clear a duct down to my house. Meanwhile, @virginmedia rocks up and, in three days, cables over 100 houses in my road and surrounding streets. One company has its game together, the other is a mess.

  • SP1814 SP18 (@SP1814) reported

    @virginmedia I was told I will get an email. I am very disappointed with the Virgin Media. I have been with Sky for 10 years and never experienced such rubbish customer services.

  • velouriavonk VelouriaVonkFE (@velouriavonk) reported

    Never join @virginmedia engineer told me the boxes are so out of date you need booster equipment but can only get one booster box at a time and ALWAYS out of stock and my service is down for the 2nd time today!
