Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Sheffield and nearby locations:
-
Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Not really. He said that there had been an outage in the area. That seems to happen nearly every day at the moment. Resetting the box multiple times, running a test, waiting then hoping.
-
Alex (@alexwhit3head_) reported from Sheffield, EnglandCoincidence that BT & EE has been selling broadband all day in area and now my @virginmedia is down.
-
lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia No and tbh no apology for my internet not working since the day after install Friday and now I've been threatened in in contract ! I have 14 days to cancel can you confirm please . Im not paying for a fault after 5 days plus it's not worked from install .
-
Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England@virginmedia I finally got through to a real person via text today and booked a landline appointment, although It’s not the anytime plan that I wanted . Never had so much trouble switching provider. Almost not worth it.
-
Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England@virginmedia how do we get the new wifi extender pods or a new Virgin Hub? Our wifi signal and speed changes dramatically between the front and back of the house, the coverage is dreadful
-
Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.
-
Angelina Perrett (@liaryredhead) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia - 3 scam phone calls this morning from a company impersonating Virgin Media- by the third time they were just plan rude when I would not respond
-
GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia So you're telling me to be without stable /any Internet for at least 3-5 days and that is okay and acceptable? No. We work from home. You need to fix this.
-
John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia No problem, and thank you for sorting it out quickly. May be worth making sure telephone staff tell customers about call out charges as I had no idea they applied in this situation.
-
Sam (@samthompson98_) reported from Rotherham, EnglandSky sports red button not working with @virginmedia there’s a shock
-
Claire 💙 (@ClaireWinslade) reported from Sheffield, EnglandMoved to @virginmedia on Monday and router didn’t come. Then when it came Wednesday the internet wouldn’t connect. After 7 phone calls and an engineer called out it’s still not working 😡 and it seems if you are on hold for too long they just cut you off. So frustrating
-
David JS Dawkes-Hall 💙 (@statto95) reported from Hoyland Nether, England@virginmedia I pay £50 a month for my WiFi and Internet, any particular reason it keeps going down.....??
-

-
Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.
-
Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England@PaulbernalUK @virginmedia I can’t help with that. Good luck.
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, EnglandAnyone recommend a phone network been with @O2 for years and since it merged with @virginmedia it’s shocking. When I went on holiday before I’d never had problems this year wouldn’t let me go my own internet & here signal keeps going for phoning not to mention rise in scam calls
-
Ben Brailsford (@benbrailsford) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia on hold for 40 mins so far just to get you to cancel a service I don't even want 🤬

-
Stephen Hampson (@StephenHampson) reported@virginmedia brilliant. Less than 12 months before the remote control on the streaming box packs up. And you haven't listened to feedback otherwise it would be one of the options on the help screen. What an awful company this is. Yes I've changed batteries.
-
Sandra 💙 (@Santhebeach) reported@virginmedia how do I sign into my 02 now virgin media account? I get bills still from o2 with an account number that your system doesn’t recognise. Being sent in circles! Very frustrating. Can’t just sign in- need an email.. then a link.. how hard have you made it???
-
Emily Atkins (@bahallathegreat) reported@mariah56_c @virginmedia Mines just gone down so not happy
-
*** (@lenatrobins) reported@andrewc44104127 Or the people who deal with customer complaints at Virgin Media
-
Dobbin1957 (@dobbin1957) reported@virginmedia so after 3 days a week or so back without broadband, landline or TV, and no sign of compensation and only the most glib apology, our service is off again today and will be off all day according to their status checker. Not good enough. Time to go.
-
Stephen Hampson (@StephenHampson) reported@virginmedia Do better for your customers. Take the feedback on board and amend your help pages to include the streaming box. Walk in our shoes and think how you feel when a big company treats you like dirt and still takes your money without a problem.. but you won't .
-
jango fett (@jangofe42286291) reported@dublinvoter I will never pay my licence fee again. This joke of a broadcaster all ready receives revenue from advertising like virgin media, they will survive without the licence money if they stop paying stupid wages to talentless hacks.
-
julie fountain (@juliefount) reported@virginmedia what a shambles they have assured me for 5 times in the last 3 months IT would be in contact, still can not access my account customer lost
-
Michelle Beckett (@MichelleBeckett) reported@UglyGeezer @virginmedia I’m so sorry, Lee. That’s awful. Thinking of you
-
Helen Black (@helsblack) reported@virginmedia It's back on been an outage this morning
