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

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Would love to call but thanks to you guys I don’t have a phone!!!!!!! & holding for 30 mins on a mobile is unacceptable. Here’s an idea, get your team to call me. It’s called customer service. Something Virgin don’t know if.

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    Yet again @virginmedia absolutely appalling customer service, by far worse organisation I’ve ever dealt with. They lie, they cheat, they rip from your bank account, no protection at all!!!

  • SNewport01 Shaun (@SNewport01) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia The Internet was down and I ran 4 diagnostics and each one told me my cable wasn't plugged in to my hub, after being on hold and ringing back I was instantly told by the automated service that my postcode had problems. Its fixed now

  • Doddstar79 Andrew Dodd (@Doddstar79) reported from Bathford, England

    @virginmedia No. I’m not wasting any more of my time in @virginmedia especially to phone up costing me time and money to stop you posting crap through my door.

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia No point, tried Twitter several times to no avail. Calls = wasted hours of ones life. Sign for letter now sent to complaints as 2 official complaint emails had “no” response. Next stop Ofcom.

  • 621_karl Yiddo1982 🐓 (@621_karl) reported from Warminster, England

    @virginmedia It’s a property I’m working on at the moment, the elderly owner of the property mentioned it to the engineers at the time and was told it’s normal to have the cable like that. Poor woman spent all this time believing that.

  • RolandMillward Roland Millward (@RolandMillward) reported from Trowbridge, England

    @virginmedia As you are aware OFCOM believe this practice is illegal. The fact people can’t move onto a new development and you’re not putting down cables is not their fault. It’s an inappropriate way to treat customers fairly.

  • jamiew007 Jamie Walker (@jamiew007) reported from Melksham, England

    @virginmedia I have an issue with my Tivo box, for the past 4 days search & discover and the apps don’t work until the box gets restarted. So far I have spent over 2 hours on the phone over the last few days and it’s not getting sorted

  • jason_side Jason side (@jason_side) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Box is connected to TV via HDMI cable I've tried different cables and hdmi ports on TV to eliminate those as issues. Doesn't happen with on-demand programs.

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia stopped our DD because you take excess ££ from our a/c. Called lots of times, written 2 complaints, been promised it’ll be sorted but empty promises AGAIN absolutely by far worse customer service I’ve ever experienced

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Complaint should have been obvious from ALL the comms I’ve sent. Contracted TV, phone, unlimited BB £79/mth. Can’t get phone line (waiting 8 months) but £105 DDs taken each month. Truly appalling

  • ChristoffLowe Chris Lowe (@ChristoffLowe) reported from Bathford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had no broadband for nearly a week now! It’s not the first time and lost it for 4 days last time. The call centre is absolutely shocking! The worst customer experience I have ever had!

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Never given a reference, sent 2 email complaints have acknowledgement as proof but you guys never even bothered with a reference let alone a proper response

  • NoWireHangers 𝚁𝚒𝚌𝚑𝚊𝚛𝚍 𝙼𝚊𝚜𝚘𝚗 👓 (@NoWireHangers) reported from Bromham, England

    @SiOrme @virginmedia Go elsewhere. They are the worst.

  • ChristoffLowe Chris Lowe (@ChristoffLowe) reported from Bathford, England

    @virginmedia My broadband has been down now for 6 days. This is the 3rd time this has happened and the last time lost it for 4 days. The customer support line is shocking for many reasons. Clearly Virgin do not know how to properly fix issues! Shocking service!

  • BlackMayan PASTOR WILL🇲🇼🇬🇧 (@BlackMayan) reported from Keynsham, England

    Or @virginmedia just being shit as usual.

  • burdmiester Paul Burdon (@burdmiester) reported from Kingswood, England

    Can’t stream jack shit on @virginmedia waste of time fails every Twenty minutes #prepareexittoalternative

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia absolute disgrace. Advise via Twitter to make complaint, logged 2-no response, called lots no joy, promises result in nothing. Absolute shambles. STAY AWAY peeps!! Sky a dream in comparison

  • jongodfrey Jon Godfrey (@jongodfrey) reported from Saltford, England

    I can’t wait. Awful service and complaints handling by @virginmedia so looking forward to @theTRUESPEED

  • rjgux Richard George (@rjgux) reported from Kingswood, England

    @dangerous_85 @virginmedia I really don’t see the point in the service checker. There’s clearly an issue but still says ‘No known issues’. Rediculous

  • official_RHG use code REBEL-HEART-GAME #epicpartner ツ (@official_RHG) reported

    @virginmedia I have they said they have noted it down

  • Lennon068 lennon33 (@Lennon068) reported

    @virginmedia internet down, rang service number. HUB fine, now been told to wait 24hrs. Why is it going to take 24hrs, also why does your broadband status say there are no know issues when clearly there is.

  • afnw35342 Alex Fleming (@afnw35342) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia Trying to sign up for Volt but you’re weblinks send me in circles & you’re digital assistants are no help. What else can I try?

  • tailsinge Sen 🌻 (@tailsinge) reported

    Virgin Media doing work that takes the internet down, during work hours from 9-3, without notification. Its not like a ton of people work from home at this point!! Worst UK ISP honestly.

  • j1ggy_j jiggy jai (@j1ggy_j) reported

    @virginmedia Also what you forgot to mention is that if I call the 0345 number from a virgin landline it’s chargeable. Which I found out at my own expense. These issues were previously reported. What more am I ment to do ? Your company has really dragged me down.

  • John_Ogden John Ogden (@John_Ogden) reported

    Hey @virginmedia if there are no issues in my area, why don’t I have internet & why are there 2 virgin media guys ripping cables out the box on the street? 😡🤬

  • GorillaHeadz Gorilla Headz (@GorillaHeadz) reported

    @virginmedia Terrible. Still down. Got a meeting in 2 hours that I’ve had to cancel so now losing money too.

  • AdamJukes Adam Jukes (@AdamJukes) reported

    @virginmedia What’s the point of providing a Twitter service if you are then unable to have the right people check/report potential system issues which affect your company’s income?
