Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Staines, England

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

  • fleekhan fiona khan (@fleekhan) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia please help! Getting no where with your endless telephone systems! New ooomph customer no unlimited sim as promised which is badly needed because the 500 oomph speed promised is nonsense and doesn’t work at all in some of the house!

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Can I please DM you on this issue?

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Is that the terminology? As I said I don’t wish to discuss it on Twitter. Think a complaint is now in order and a cancellation request.

  • dc89lfc DC (@dc89lfc) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia This is absolutely ridiculous, done your tests and its been confirmed there are intermittent issues but your phone/web services keep putting me in loop.

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia LS, just tried to send a text to your CS and the number is invalid. Is this a scam? @virginmedia charging £49.50 for a worse service than ever before and no working landline.

  • Tinalc69 Tina Clark (@Tinalc69) reported from London, England

    Not very good @virginmedia complaint C-2901212518 emailed to say they tried to call. No they haven’t. No incoming calls registered and nothing on my mobile! Didn’t even remotely address the complaint in the email. Please call me!

  • CMS200 Chris S (@CMS200) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Not very helpful. If your company can’t fix the issue, why would the community be able to? Spent another hour on the phone again today, again being told I will get a call back in 45 mins. It didn’t happen. Still no email!

  • Goldenlocks Estelle Levacher (@Goldenlocks) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia hello, we are unhappy with our broadband. It’s bad as my husband and I are both WFH and my Teams calls are regularly interrupted. We have the highest broadband package available and pay over £100 a month so it’s clearly unacceptable. Please send an engineer ASAP!

  • fleekhan fiona khan (@fleekhan) reported from Esher, England

    Finally get through to ooomph team @virginmedia explained everything he began looking into it then he hung up. Another hour on hold. Wtf is wrong with your systems! He’s not called back even though he’s got my details! No one give a ****. I had it for today 😩

  • WakeFireplaces Wakeford Fireplaces (@WakeFireplaces) reported from Send, England

    @virginmedia Getting a new/replacement Hub, existing one keeps turning off/resetting. Call lasted 50 mins, 6-7 mins was chatting to someone, until put on hold again. Gave up.... shocking service!!

  • dc89lfc DC (@dc89lfc) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia 3 days I've been having non stop issues now! I can't work because of it being down (which is costing me money!). I scheduled an engineer visit, who can't get here until Friday and now just received a text to say its been put on hold! Wtf is going on.

  • linopolis Lino.. Oh. 💙 (@linopolis) reported from Brentford, England

    What could possibly make me switch from my terrible 30mbps download @SkyUK fibre service? A £2 a month price hike. @virginmedia here I come!

  • jamesifoster James the Electrician ⚡ (@jamesifoster) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia Our Internet is down TW18, Staines-upon-Thames

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia I did call. One chap was very helpful and referred the poor broadband service and a faulty landline for two years to @Ofcom and the latter chap was not very helpful. Would you stay and have your monthly fee go from £28.50 to £49.50?

  • dc89lfc DC (@dc89lfc) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia if i can't work tomorrow because of your useless service, i want my contract cancelled, and i'm going elsewhere. So many issues

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Just spent an hour on the phone to yourselves, not only is the service going to be referred to @Ofcom due to frequent drops in the service + no LL, but you can’t offer me a 12mth contract insisting I have 18mth. Well, I might take up @SkyTV’s offer reluctantly. #Ealing

  • DemeryUK Daniel Emery (@DemeryUK) reported from Richmond, England

    @browntoby @virginmedia My wife works at a well known provider. The biggest discounts are available from ‘retentions’ i.e tell them you want to cancel and you can sometimes get over 1/3 off your bill.

  • AtulSodha Atul Sodha (@AtulSodha) reported from Harefield, England

    @virginmedia you have the worst reputation for customer service and no simple way to resolve an issue. I am resorting to a rant on Twitter in hope of some contact from you to resolve my issues.A representative dropped the call when passing me on and has not called back #disgusted

  • dc89lfc DC (@dc89lfc) reported from Slough, England

    @virginmedia When do I get an engineer to sort these intermittent issues? Had issues all week, cut out during work zoom calls with clients. No completely dead. When do i get an engineer round? #badcustomerservice

  • GabsdAprano Gabriella d'Aprano (@GabsdAprano) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia You know about the issue, you’ve advised that you know about the issue. Please don’t send me generic emails to bide time, to look like you care, please just fix it.

  • AndyJ74551315 Andrew James (@AndyJ74551315) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry but your customer service told me on Saturday when I had no tv for a planned 3 days I was entitled to compensation and a complaint was logged. You seem to think the fault has been resolved but it has not so I want it fixing. I am not at home and my partner has gone to bed

  • the5belovedones whipflip (@the5belovedones) reported

    @virginmedia you have raised the cost of my bill despite my home router intermittently not working. I have called you many times to send me a replacement, but instead, you want an engineer to come to my house, which means I need to take time off work, which I cannot afford to do

  • AndyJ74551315 Andrew James (@AndyJ74551315) reported

    @virginmedia I haven’t called as I’m not at home. The check status page told of a fault from Sat lunchtime with an estimated fix time of 13.55 today which became 6pm. At 6pm it declared no issues though I still had no tv. Internet was also off all day but came back at the estimated time

  • AndyJ74551315 Andrew James (@AndyJ74551315) reported

    @virginmedia No I just want to report the fact that my television is still not working despite I’m assuming that you think someone has fixed it. So I want it still to be recorded as loss of service on the compensation claim and I want someone to fix it!

  • swingate79 swingate79 (@swingate79) reported

    @virginmedia I have service, but poor signal. Hence the new cable due to be installed to replace existing one. Means I have mediocre WiFi service in the house, no multi room, no boosters etc. Being informed in this way is unacceptable. I have moved away from Sky but VM is not delivering

  • HattyCollier Hatty Collier (@HattyCollier) reported

    @virginmedia been trying to get through to cancel our broadband service for 2 hours 15 minutes, absolute madness. Someone finally picked up and I was then cut off.

  • RayFish63090861 Ray Fish (@RayFish63090861) reported

    @virginmedia So far you have sent me a link to communication channels that are ineffective. Why not an email address or a phone number that is quickly picked up by someone interested in solving my problem

  • dawson8r David Dawson (@dawson8r) reported

    @sniffpetrol @virginmedia I feel for the “real person” that has to pick up the pieces after an automated chat bot has infuriated every customer that they’re going to speak to.

  • Whatkatiedidne2 ✝️🔰🐝🇮🇪 💜 (@Whatkatiedidne2) reported

    @virginmedia It's working now. It's been bad all day as my WhatsApp stopped working in a call. I rang their mobile no instead. Hopefully it's a poor day. I do have some problems X I did chat about them when I decided to switch . Thank you for replying quickly though

  • GeordieFalthful Geordie Faithful (@GeordieFalthful) reported

    @virginmedia My mother in law moved into a new house today & has no service despite texts saying her equipment has been delivered, it hasn’t. Can’t ring because automated bot wants to run checks & just hangs up because it can’t run the checks. How do you get to speak to someone?
