Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Stafford, England

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

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @leicscyberaware @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @ScottMcGready @PWTooStrong The irony here is 3 random words can be broken in as little as 40 seconds, maximum 50 minutes. A 10 character random password, by comparison, would take 7 weeks with the same hardware.

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @ScottMcGready @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong No, bash both :) As I said, it's a poor policy by comparison but I'd rather advise the user on how to choose a secure 10 character password than waste time preaching security to a social media staffer :)

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @kinoshitajona @ScottMcGready @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong Agreed, neither are secure and should never be used... however it's certainly possible to make an unbreakable MD5 password.

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @ScottMcGready @kinoshitajona @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong Scott, we use the term "unbreakable" in the trade to imply the credentials cannot be broken in a timeframe which realistically presents a risk to the user... it's not an OED term. Sure, if we're talking to an end-user, you either use a different term or explain the meaning

  • jcanlas159 j (@jcanlas159) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia No difference. We do have an engineer booked in but just trying to understand the issue. The router page shows the Broadband reading (Access Denied) errors

  • Kerry777 Kerry (@Kerry777) reported from Newport, England

    Come home after a long week at work. Hoping to enjoy some tv but no. @virginmedia playing up once again. Apparently it will be resolved by Monday despite their pre-recorded message saying the problem was fixed at 15:00 hrs! #really #greatservicenot

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @ScottMcGready @PWTooStrong This isn't as bad as some would make out. 10 isn't ideal, but it's not insecure either. That's not to say you can't choose an insecure 10 character password however...

  • Gemgwar Gemma Brayne (@Gemgwar) reported from Armitage with Handsacre, England

    @virginmedia really not impressed with your service. No idea what is going on and when I’m actually getting my broadband. Your team just keep lying to me and it’s frustrating!!

  • SketchXZ SketchXZ (@SketchXZ) reported from Burntwood, England

    Sorry stream was cut short @virginmedia decided it was gna go down 🖕 #twitch #internetproblems

  • ObsessiveJohn John Sanders  (@ObsessiveJohn) reported from Shifnal, England

    @virginmedia Unreliable & intermittent Broadband, no Sky Atlantic but most importantly very poor customer service as justified by this thread - I’d rather rather speak to a person real time

  • Tedtalks13 Teds (@Tedtalks13) reported from Brownhills, England

    YOUR softwares and products were back footed to defraud me hooked in on bill bob gates gap in his programme "and community of python con men" which the camera ip picks it all up bilateral to the fraud hooking in on virgin media @richardbranson best sort your shit out

  • Gemgwar Gemma Brayne (@Gemgwar) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia Yes. They have said we will have to wait until WEDNESDAY, so we were lied to again. Shocking service!

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @leicscyberaware @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @ScottMcGready @PWTooStrong You're right, it's not good enough... but it's not insecure either. I debunked 3 random words years ago. Now *that* is poor advice.

  • khnatter Kate (@khnatter) reported from Newport, England

    @virginmedia Trouble is as I explained, it’s rented accommodation and the rental company have the login and password info and are closed all weekend. Making studying impossible 😠

  • 5tu1987 Stuart Hurcombe (@5tu1987) reported from Armitage with Handsacre, England

    @Gemgwar @virginmedia Basically.. nobody knows what the process is! Told we had to wait in ALL DAY yesterday for nobody to come (when we apparently now it’s only a package being delivered) STILL! nobody is clear if it’s a package being delivered or an engineer. Shocking service for what we are paying!

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @ScottMcGready @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong Because "secure" requires a context which neither the OP nor yourself have given. 99% of my passwords are 12 chars, A-Z, a-z, 0-9. They're not being broken in my lifetime... so to claim 10 is sufficient to justify leaving is daft.

  • photo_bloke Mike Hillman (@photo_bloke) reported from Stafford, England

    @virginmedia (3/3) I'm the customer, and I would like to think you would accommodate my wishes and show me some respect as one of the people who ultimately pay for your profits. I will not, however, be a customer for much longer

  • Paul_Reviews Paul Moore (@Paul_Reviews) reported from Burntwood, England

    @ScottMcGready @SCwithGin @virginmedia @NCSC @troyhunt @PWTooStrong I didn't say it was perfectly fine... but it's certainly possible to pick a secure 10 character PW within those constraints. I was a VM customer for 2 decades... I can't recall ever losing sleep over this.

  • ObsessiveJohn John Sanders  (@ObsessiveJohn) reported from Wheaton Aston, England

    @Appolotech @virginmedia I’ve had really intermittent quality of service with the Virgin BB. Switching to SKY end of month.

  • 5tu1987 Stuart Hurcombe (@5tu1987) reported from Armitage with Handsacre, England

    @virginmedia You mean the number we have used that have fed us countless information that is untrue/impossible to achieve to try and ‘keep us happy’. Also love the identical response to the previous tweet.. Nice template! Hopefully speak to someone in the week who maybe WANTS to help us

  • JonnyFines Jonny Fines (@JonnyFines) reported

    Absolutely horrendous Customer service @virginmedia

  • Shell123well Happy (@Shell123well) reported

    @virginmedia This doesn’t answer my question at all. I didn’t ask why prices are going up. Why can’t someone respond to me about changing our package/wifi issues please?

  • abradders9 Andrew Bradshaw (@abradders9) reported

    @virginmedia And now you go and send me a mail with a 5% rate increase, when inflation is minimal alongside poor service ! I have been a loyal customer for over 25 years and this is how you treat your customers ?

  • naston23 Neil Aston (@naston23) reported from High Wycombe, England

    @virginmedia Yes and I’m still in a queue waiting for a response. I really don’t understand how this is so difficult. I just want to cancel my contact for a service you’ve lied to me be about being able to supply.

  • Furmadamadam Adam Nathaniel Furman (@Furmadamadam) reported

    @virginmedia Too late. And it takes forever to do anything as i have terrible mobile in this area. That is a copy paste of the exact message

  • CoralLouisePike Coral Pike (@CoralLouisePike) reported

    Had an Internet issue for 4 months with @virginmedia called done all the tests resets on numerous of times nothing worked. Finally get through to an advisor today and had to argue to get the issue fixed. 1hr half later finally sends a hub #shameonyouvirgin

  • ELilliLDWorman Lilliiiii (@ELilliLDWorman) reported

    @AlexandraBowie1 @virginmedia Yep total nightmare! Wish I had never signed up with them, service is applying! Hope you got somewhere with them....!

  • tommodaniels thomas daniels (@tommodaniels) reported

    @virginmedia Any show or movie on demand. Still an issue. I was told 2 weeks back it was a general issue - is that still the case? What is the estimated fix date if so?

  • CBridgie carl bridgewood (@CBridgie) reported

    @virginmedia so called up today as wanted remove my t.v & phone and just have broadband only. Seen online new customers get 350meg for £38.99. A friend of mine just got it off you today for £42, I was told £52 which is disgusting you can charge a loyal customer such a difference

  • Caza1181 Caroline robinson (@Caza1181) reported

    @virginmedia I wanted to cancel as i got cheaper service elsewhere, after 3 hours of calls being passed from one operator to another i then received a bill with extra charges on, i rang back once again to ask about the charges, got nowhere again, now i have a bill i shouldn’t have comjng out
