Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Southend-on-Sea and nearby locations:

  • TylerTowers Ashley Halliday (@TylerTowers) reported from Gillingham, England

    40 minutes on hold (so far)for @virginmedia’ customer service. Whilst loads of online options to “solve your problem” when you get through on the phone and told they need to transfer my call, you do hope they are on the case! Why did I ever leave Sky - a false economy

  • Coxy009 Ben Cox (@Coxy009) reported from Basildon, England

    @virginmedia my internet connection is still being affected by the issue you had a few days ago! This is not good enough and I expect better.

  • Mickey_Rynn Mickey R. (@Mickey_Rynn) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia internet completely down. Also your websites: can't even get on to check status elsewhere

  • _SamButler Sam (@_SamButler) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia don’t want to sound like a Karen but your internet has been ******* appalling this week, down yet again what a joke

  • Peter_AFC_ J.C (@Peter_AFC_) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia can someone please contact me in relation to on-going broadband issues. Unable to contact on call centre as it is closed. Urgently need assistance/new hub delivered as need internet to work from home.

  • M_Morgan94 Mark Morgan (@M_Morgan94) reported from Rochester, England

    Virgin Media estimated fix being 10am tomorrow, well looks like no TV for me 🤡

  • M_Morgan94 Mark Morgan (@M_Morgan94) reported from Rochester, England

    Atleast the lockdown can’t get any worse.... Oh wait yup Virgin Media has gone down

  • 0katiehunt Katie (@0katiehunt) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia my WiFi should have been activated yesterday, it still hasn’t activated and saying there’s a connection problem, help!

  • TomzEvz5 X (@TomzEvz5) reported from Wainscott, England

    If I had a pound for everytime @virginmedia went down I'd finally be able to afford my Internet bill... #virginmedia #virgindown #virgin #sortitoutlove

  • thebooooooth Mark Booth (@thebooooooth) reported from Basildon, England

    So @virginmedia lie to you and then don't respond to you or follow up your phone request to make a complaint. Why did i ever leave Sky! The service has been shocking, wouldn't recommend Virgin to anyone

  • coxychris chris cox (@coxychris) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I hope you are going to compensate people for these issues. Mines been like this for weeks so much so that I thought it was the super hub. Looks like I may leave I’m June service is awful

  • Joewilkins14 Joey (@Joewilkins14) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia I mean honestly if you want to sort your shit out, all the boys wanna do is win *** one on clubs again

  • Joewilkins14 Joey (@Joewilkins14) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia any idea when you might actually fix your internet issues... it’s not like people are trying to work from home or anything! ABSOLUTELY USESLESS!!!!!

  • MarkPashby Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia i get it. Captalist country and therefore a fallacy to beleive we dont need you. You social media support responders are in jobs etc But really, VM broadband is a joke. Bring back telewest and the more personal service of old. #virginmediadown again

  • MrG48 Mr.G - Longy - Graham (@MrG48) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia your output in ME7 is shocking this evening. Having to use my 3G signal. Pc and iPad failing.

  • darrenh67 Dazzle (@darrenh67) reported from Rochester, England

    @virginmedia What a load of bollox phone sends to same place it’s all shit

  • MarkPashby Mark Pashby (@MarkPashby) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @virginmedia still no connectivity at all for me in SS0. Running a successful ISP should also surely include upda ting customers when issues arrise. Internet connectivity in this day and age is a utility, not a nice to have. #virginmediadown

  • roxcreeve Roxc Reeve (@roxcreeve) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    @MelanieCmusic @virginmedia @BBCTheOneShow Virgins internet is terrible I have to reconnect every device almost every day! They do nothing about it

  • BrazilArteUK BrazilArte (@BrazilArteUK) reported from Southend-on-Sea, England

    I’ve been waiting in all day for a package. For them not to deliver as they couldn’t ring the door bell. @virginmedia please don’t use @YodelOnline anymore they are the worst company ever.

  • yiddo71 Mark Gould (@yiddo71) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia the worst customer service ever!!

  • Sam_Rigg1 Sam (@Sam_Rigg1) reported

    What's the point in this revolutionary new text support that just goes round in circles? I did everything yesterday and it 'put me in a queue' but now its trying to start over. @virginmedia

  • adjasp2 adjasp (@adjasp2) reported

    @TwoPoundPunt @virginmedia They're awful. I have had no phone line for months now and can't get through to them. Gotta just see out the contract now and never use them again. They always seem to annoy me. Roll on when I'm back with Sky.

  • 36yearsandsilly S (@36yearsandsilly) reported

    Dear @virginmedia my internet is ****. And you're a rip off Goodbye

  • stevemcgilvray Steve McGilvray (@stevemcgilvray) reported

    Still trying to get help from Virgin media, they are using bots and a text chat with a 4 hour waiting time. Do they really think that this is supporting customers. Does Richard Branson still own Virgin media? What a bunch of jokers. Try helping customers.

  • V96GLF Russell Whitworth (@V96GLF) reported

    I have just booked 6th engineer’s visit with @virginmedia . Phone has been intermittent since September, and completely out of service since Dec 27.

  • audsdasilva Audrey Lobo-Dasilva (@audsdasilva) reported

    @virginmedia sorry VIRGIN MEDIA.... your customer service is the WORST ever..... just reported that my WiFi was not working after endless texts and waiting on the phone to have my called disconnected by ZAC! I was polite. Why record calls???

  • adamace72 Adam Tromans (@adamace72) reported

    @virginmedia This might be your first price hike in 18 months but take a look at the bigger picture, count how many price rises over the last few years, the average working man has had no wage increases at all and to be honest your service is not reflecting the price rises at all

  • super_buff The Super History Buff (@super_buff) reported

    @virginmedia Are these offers available to existing customers? With Three I get a good discount for having been with Three for 11 years - Virgin gives me nothing but bill increases. I've been a customer since NTL but get nothing! Virgin has a poor business plan & doesn't reward customers!

  • stevemcgilvray Steve McGilvray (@stevemcgilvray) reported

    @virginmedia That is not the case! No existent customer service, a company that doesn’t care.

  • TomGreen91 Tom Green (@TomGreen91) reported

    @virginmedia you agreed on the phone to waiver my final bill due to the terrible service you’ve offered me during my contract yet have the audacity to send me a final bill asking for £74.30. How do I make a complaint and speak to a competent member of your team to resolve????????
