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

  • TezzaBelle88 Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported from Sheffield, England

    Anyone else’s @virginmedia WiFi down ?Mines been down nearly 24 hrs 🥲

  • AnnielizzieSten Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

  • AnnielizzieSten Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia I can’t help with that. Good luck.

  • Callum_SEND Callum 🏳️‍🌈 🔴⚪⚫ ☮️ (@Callum_SEND) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @DysphasiaPV @virginmedia Product is good but customer service terrible

  • DeborahTaylor3 Debbie 💜 🦋🦉 (@DeborahTaylor3) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia I hung up the call, rang back and spoke with a lovely man. Reset my email, password and answered all my quedtions. All the men are when you call, the female was awful. But thank you for the response

  • VanceBulla V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

  • maddyarden Prof Maddy Arden (@maddyarden) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia our broadband down without warning and service update says you hope to fix this by 5th April! Why so long? We rely on this for work - unacceptable

  • lettielou05 lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia failed install which worked for 2 hours and I cancelled within 14 days . I've now got a a bill for £62 ! Your staff just cut me off and I'm disabled and need help

  • Helen_Claire71 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.

  • AndrewKerrison6 Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia I tried to report a problem. The advisor was only interested in selling me a upgraded package. Miss selling packages to customers is not good practice

  • lettielou05 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 .

  • ArmitageJohn John Armitage (@ArmitageJohn) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi guys, I’ve been without TV services for over two weeks now. Every attempt to@reach you has me going around in circles. Tried the app. Doesn’t recognise my email, and doesn’t recognise my acct no + area ref. Please help. Can I talk to someone?!!

  • AnnielizzieSten Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

  • lettielou05 lettiebella🦉🇬🇧 (@lettielou05) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia hi virgin can you explain why you've referred me to a debt collection agency after I cancelled my service within 14 days snd returned equipment as it was a failed install and was advised I wouldn't be charged ? You also luckily never cancelled my sky .

  • samthompson98_ Sam (@samthompson98_) reported from Rotherham, England

    Sky sports red button not working with @virginmedia there’s a shock

  • TezzaBelle88 Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported from Sheffield, England

    I’m gonna stop having days off because every time I do the WiFi seems to be down #VirginMedia

  • AndrewKerrison6 Andrew Kerrison (@AndrewKerrison6) reported from Rotherham, England

    @virginmedia To box not working. Got it sorted now but not happy with been miss sold a package I didn't need then had to waste more time on the phone to cancel it

  • tevowl9 Adam (@tevowl9) reported from Brinsworth, England

    @virginmedia on the phone for 30 minutes, WhatsApp message and technical support still not sorting us out! Oh but we can double what we pay and get a new hub!! New customers get it for £25

  • SBOmad Adam Hutt 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@SBOmad) reported from Swinton, England

    @virginmedia Broadband went back down for me around 16:30 and no internet etc and like others your website is still failing

  • AnnielizzieSten Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Oh yes and I’ve phoned. It appears to be that yesterday’s problems haven’t been resolved.

    @virginmedia No never mentioned no credit not once.

  • jimbojetset1981 JimbobSquarepants (@jimbojetset1981) reported

    @virginmedia 3. ….sent nearly 500 WhatsApp messages on your chatbot to sort this and I am still no further forward. This is awful customer service.

  • HayleyBanks41 Hayley Banks (@HayleyBanks41) reported

    @virginmedia Nope. The link you are sending is not a link. More technical issues your end.

  • Becsicola Bec McLeish (@Becsicola) reported

    @virginmedia No, I'm still waiting for a WhatsApp reply. I've tried calling and online chat. Your terrible BOT advises 2-3 hours wait...I've been waiting over 9.

  • ellefie Elle Field (@ellefie) reported

    Took 5 days for Virgin Media to finally get back to me so I could cancel my services - in which I had to say no 7 times in a row to their deals before they'd actually listen and cancel my services... Yet took less than 24 hours to call me to try and "win" me back. NO. Just, NO.

  • LiverpoolBands Liverpool Bands (@LiverpoolBands) reported

    @JaneCanan @FisherAndrew79 Broadband Communism! I have BT broadband. A couple of years ago Virgin Media dug up our road to put their cables in. 6 months later different holes dug by City Fibre for EE. The proposal was for a proper planned network that everyone begged for 1st Lockdown

  • CaMacRae14 Cameron MacRae (@CaMacRae14) reported

    @virginmedia Diagnostics say there’s no issues in my area, 3 rooms I get 150mb+ then lounge and kitchen we get 2mb or less

  • EmmaLatham89 Emma (@EmmaLatham89) reported

    @virginmedia How on earth am I supposed to tell you I want to cancel my account, if no one ever answers the phones or messages?!

  • C_residential C residential estate agents (@C_residential) reported

    @virginmedia I am trying to cancel my contract can you send an email address to enable us to write to you

  • CaMacRae14 Cameron MacRae (@CaMacRae14) reported

    @virginmedia Says the equipment is fine, I’ve optimised it and still no improvements, ran speed tests which said Internet was good in the lounge which online speed tests come out as 10mbs and kitchen is poor with 1mbs
