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

  • plummerkevin1 Kevin Plummer (@plummerkevin1) reported from Richmond, England

    @martynenglish2 @virginmedia They have a catastrophic reputation around here ... speeds great in theory but always down, slow and out of order as I see from local shops.

  • DimiD35089880 DimiD (@DimiD35089880) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia can’t even set up hub properly. 3 weeks since I upgraded my speed and I receive still the same but they keep insisting (we made changes will approve by tomorrow) REALLY!!! Is technical support think we are so stupid. Get a grip @virginmedia next stop complaints

  • yessibelloperez Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Last time, our wifi was down for over a week. I spoke to an agent on the phone who was utterly useless. You never offer any solutions. I’m starting to think that the only way for you to take any action is if I cancel my DD.

  • elthampalacegay royal 🌈 (@elthampalacegay) reported from London, England

    Or #virginmedia wiping the Wi-Fi network name every other month on the 2G and 5G saaaaaaaaaake

  • DimiD35089880 DimiD (@DimiD35089880) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia Upgraded to volt500 from 350 and speed haven’t changed now 3 weeks despite your engineer changed the hub him self still same shame I been loyal customer for the last 13 years

  • yessibelloperez Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Yep, not good enough. What’s the issue? Why does it keep happening and what are you doing about it? And how are you compensating customers?

  • U2Gorilla Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, England

    Possibly the worst service Iv ever experience by @virginmedia signed up to a new contract on 4/08/22. Installation engineer was due today, no contact from virgin. called call centre on the phone for 56min multiple transfers asked to redo everything including provide bank details

  • will_i_am67 Billy Baxter (@will_i_am67) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia good at persuading customers to stay with them just not very good at keeping promises. Several telephone calls to customer services still not activated request for Sky Sports can't even be certain new broadband speed has been implemented might need to contact @Ofcom

  • U2Gorilla Snatch (@U2Gorilla) reported from Southall, England

    Requested to cancel my contract and told my account doesn’t exist anyway. Thank you Virgin Media.

  • Johnboy82903002 John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia I have done, but there is nowhere to report a total outage, despite the message, and no estimated time. I have no landline or broadband, and haven't for 2 days

  • will_i_am67 Billy Baxter (@will_i_am67) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia Called customer services at 6.30pm yesterday Sky sports now added. Lots of issues with WiFi at same time was on phone unable to load tivo box history appears to of been sorted. We will see in next 14days

  • lhntennis Lee Neale (@lhntennis) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia After a long phone conversation with one of your operatives today we were promised an engineer would come out but nobody showed. Over a month without reliable broadband. Checked our contract we are bound to you until 2024 and need to pay to leave your terrible service

  • ChristineAllado Christine Allado (@ChristineAllado) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Looks like there are issues that need to be resolved hopefully by tomorrow.. Is this something that might be fixed sooner and am I able to seek compensation?

  • seiferxin1 seiferxin (@seiferxin1) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia really let down by Virgin media. I'm on M200 and am getting 50M at the mo. As low as 0.18M around 7pm and 10M around 8pm. Your customer service chat hasn't responded in 3hrs. I've reset router and changed channels. It's been patchy all week What am I paying for?

  • Johnboy82903002 John carroll (@Johnboy82903002) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia Done that, and still doesn't work

  • yessibelloperez Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Once again, your status checker says there’s nothing wrong but I have just called the number provided and was told by an automated messaging say your engineers are working to resolve a very complex issue. This is the second time in less than a month.

  • will_i_am67 Billy Baxter (@will_i_am67) reported from Slough, England

    @liamPATTIE @virginmedia So many time since Tuesday reset WiFi turned off tivo box at back at the wall everything. Called again Thursday and he told me you've got it unbelievable customer services 🙄

  • yessibelloperez Yessi Bello-Perez (@yessibelloperez) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Not good enough! I would believe you if this was the first time it happened but I am not paying £53.75 a month for this awful service and unreliable service… not when there are plenty of providers offering more for less.

  • ChristineAllado Christine Allado (@ChristineAllado) reported from London, England

    .@virginmedia hi virgin, we've not had internet all day and absolutely need it for work. Can you give an update for why this is our network status?

  • niawynthomas Nia Wyn Thomas (@niawynthomas) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for replying. My wifi was down but seems to have sorted itself out. Visit is due on Friday.

  • PhilipJWillis Philip Willis (@PhilipJWillis) reported

    @virginmedia have had to reset the router 3 times during an episode of bridgerton so the wife is not happy. Service status says everything in our area is fine though?

  • StreetsofGreezo Grizzo (@StreetsofGreezo) reported

    @SolicitorsFirm @virginmedia @DowndetectorUK Had no service since moving in 8 days ago myself and the best they can do is fob me off to numbers that hang up constantly.

  • SolicitorsFirm Cyrus Mansouri (@SolicitorsFirm) reported

    @virginmedia Hi you say downdetector is not reliable but at present it shows all of London is down with 5,500 reports in the past hour - I was rather hoping you would have more info - I logged in and the app tells me what I already know - I have NO INTERNET!

  • JamieSc02295185 Jamie Scott (@JamieSc02295185) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you for prompt reply. Are you able to confirm that our account is now closed ? I don't want to cancel DD before I should. I did ring 2 mths ago but Closed call centre's have prevented me from making calls to confirm details.

  • johncarroll30 ™️ (@johncarroll30) reported

    @virginmedia @ShippersUnbound I'm on 100mb and its a heap of crap. Always going down

  • LeroyDLS David Leroy Selllers (@LeroyDLS) reported

    I have never experienced such bad customer service before like I have just from @virginmedia . I am literally cancelling because of this. Horrendous experience- I’m going with @skytv #virginmedia #badcustomerservice #skytv

  • sophable Sophie H (@sophable) reported

    @ShippersUnbound @jonny5068 @virginmedia Commiserations. Customer service is awful.

  • Jmiragliotta89 JMiragliotta (@Jmiragliotta89) reported from Waltham Abbey, England

    @GrantHarvey10 Need help installing. Just got sent virgin media ones. But says ones gets connected to hub. Which I get and then the other plugged in the same room? Which i don’t get.

  • blondetwin1710 Sarah (@blondetwin1710) reported

    @virginmedia Connectivity problems and upgrading account. But according to the man I spoke to, only new customers get the better deals. He seemed to feel our connectivity problems were our problem, not yours.

  • Glenorchil Glenorchil 🇨🇦🇪🇺 (@Glenorchil) reported

    @ShippersUnbound @IvorGCampbell @virginmedia nightmare, tier 4 lockdown and no internet, bad news. Our Sky went goofy yesterday and that was bad enough.
