Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Southend-on-Sea, England
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Southend-on-Sea and nearby locations:
-
grizzly_gooner (@GoonerGrizzly) reported from Thundersley, England@virginmedia This seems to be the standard message coming from Virgin Media. “Computer says no”. If you can’t see the issue with this then you (Virgin Media) are the problem. I’m inclined to contact the ombudsman as you have sold me a service which you blatantly cannot provide or install.

Dr Stower and the Stock Market of Madness 🦍 (@1CreativeRay) reported from Wainscott, England@virginmedia Hi VM, I ordered a replacement remote control for my TIVO box. Just realised that was a couple of months ago but it never came. When trying online again it says as I’ve had one within six months I can’t order another. Please check that the first was ever sent, thanks

Penny Rolfe (@wonky61shaky) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia When are you going to refund me for many days without a wifi signal
-
Sarah Bennett (@sarahhben) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia Our internet is down in ME8 area (Parkwood) status check says ‘no known issues’
-
James Young (@jamesrfyoung) reported from Wickford, England@virginmedia your internet has been rubbish recently with varying speeds as low as 5mb 1 minute then 95mb the next! Now it’s gone down completely! On top of not being able to speak with anyone I don’t feel that your service is worth it! #rubbishservice
-
Rob Green Jnr (@rob_green86) reported from Thundersley, England@SpursKS @virginmedia What's the issue

lindsay wood (@Dearnormajeane) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@kelseybytheway @virginmedia Second this so ******* hard. Diagnostics dont do **** when the issue is with the hardware itself
-
Darren Young 📺 (@Just_Daz_Young) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia My tariff is going up from £72ish to £108ish so I want to leave... Simple but trying to get them to do this is madness. Internet is slow and not reliable, I have been promised the earth and it has just got worst! @BBCWatchdog
-
Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England@virginmedia Sort it out Virgin IT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!!!!! Can’t even log on to get service updates 😡😡😡
-
Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia This is so tiresome I have complained so many times about slow broadband speed, unreliable WiFi, terrible TV services & only after threatening to leave did you send an engineer in July. This made it a little better, but recently it’s been unreliable of an evening.

Paul Parker (@paulparker81) reported from Basildon, England@virginmedia experiencing the worst customer service I have ever had. Been a customer for 10+ years but not after today @SkyUK will be gaining another customer instead
-
Russell Norris (@rrrussboy) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia You’ve now sent me the same unhelpful link about compensation 3 times. This will only compensate me if I have no service, and as I have a service (albeit 3mbps) this, as I’ve repeated several times, doesn’t help me. Another example of poor customer service
-
∂αиѕкι (@DanskiBoyWonder) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia They replaced the box and it’s all working now,I do have one other query I have the Virgin go app but I don’t have any content available on it,is this something you can fix for me? There appears to be an issue with my account I have the ultimate ooomph package if that matters.
-
Rochester Boy. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 (@polhilljim) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia I've already done that. They've made promises but done nothing. I always have to chase you. Phone backs just don't happen. Nobody wants to help.
-
Matt Frow (@Matty411) reported from Corringham, England@virginmedia I hope you can help me. When I try to watch TV on virgin tv go,but it come up something went wrong error comes up (even if I use another account). I hope you can help me.

LiisaJane'x (@LiisaJane) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England@virginmedia @nickgooner80 I wanna know why my broadband has been all day! I do not want to be paying for a service I cannot use!!!!!! 🤬🤬 I have a bored 6 year old. SORT IT OUT!!! And I can’t check my service status as I can’t access the internet even on my 4G or the virgin media app.
-
Keeley O'Flaherty (@KeeleyOF101) reported from Thundersley, England@virginmedia you came to my mums house to fix cable. You’ve left having disconnected her phone line and sent it to a neighbour house who is now being rude. Been on hold hour on phone. Both in poor health phone Essential
-
Twiterteroo (@Twiterteroo) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia Folks, amuse me, why on earth would I or anyone complete a survey after leaving you when you couldn’t deal with the issue within 2 months and dare I say the plus 20 years we had an undiagnosed fault!?
-
Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England@virginmedia No, I want the postal address for service of a county court summons.
-
Lisa Philpott (@Lisa2672) reported from Rayleigh, England@Shayan86 @virginmedia It’s a disgrace - my husband works in tv too. You 100% cannot rely on VM. I am definitely changing. My bill started off at £35 and is now £45 as we had to buy boosters. Worst service ever. Skybroadband non-fibre was better than this.
