Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Sheffield, England
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.
-
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.
-
Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Chesterfield, England@virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person . All that needs doing is the issue of a new bill without the £35 activation fee. This is becoming the worst decision I’ve ever made in relation to switching broadband
-
Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England@virginmedia I spoke to an advisor called Gillian from Sheffield and she escalated my numerous complaints on Saturday. Promised a manager call crack but I got nothing . It’s getting to the stage that the best course of action would be to cancel the lot but that won’t get my landline back
-
Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub
-
Victims Voice (@victimsvoice73) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Yes it’s signal and tried o2 got nowhere xx thanks for the reply
-
adam (@Adz_lufc) reported from Wentworth, England@virginmedia your chat bot is broken, how hard it is yo actually speak yo someone who knows what they are talking about
-
GiinaGii 🐱🌿 (@giinagii) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia Third time it's been down today now. Yes completely down, we have no Internet at all. What other services do you mean? We only have broadband with you. Yes, I've booked but not until next week, we CAN NOT have this service for 3-5 days before someone comes out?!
-
Barry Wilkinson (@millersfm2011) reported from Conisbrough, England@virginmedia Hi, Liam said someone would call back tomorrow. No issue with service, just can't have in the new build. The service is not in the area. Let's see if we get the call back tomorrow. Shouldn't treat a leaving customer like ****.
-
Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported from Oughtibridge, England@virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).
-
Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, EnglandVirginmedia on form again check my status no tv no Internet gets worse everytime it's down
-
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
-
Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Barlborough, England@virginmedia I had Virgin broadband installed yesterday but need a landline . Unable to get through to customer services. Should have been set up with the broadband . Engineer said I was miss sold the standalone package . Now I’m without a phone.
-
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
-
Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England@virginmedia you are aware that a lot of older, more vulnerable people have had alarm and safety devices installed that depend on a safe, fast, reliable service. The one that they, like, you know pay a lot of money for
-
Calming Chameleon (@Mashcat) reported from Sheffield, England@koffee_truffles @virginmedia I’ll try calling again tomorrow and go through to cancellations.. if they won’t sort I’ll leave .. I’ve only ever had them too - never used another provider 🙈
-
Oli B (@olibrown77) reported from Sheffield, England@pauldevine1986 @virginmedia We are still down in S7. Nearly 24 hours now. Saying 2pm is the updated fix time. But that keeps getting pushed back 🙄😡
-
GAMING DRAGON (@GAMINGDRAGONUK) reported from Hoyland Nether, England@virginmedia I already have and I reported the fault bit it see like you have a service outage in my area
-
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
-
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 .

-
grace!! (@ROMANTlCGETAWAY) reported@virginmedia Is the issue in OX4 set to be fixed at midnight or midday tomorrow? Status update page just says 12:07 without an AM/PM.
-
Kerrin McIntosh 💙 (@kerbear_t) reported@Salfordoriginal @virginmedia Off since Weds and the fix only due by Monday. What kind of company is this - and we get no help or compensation.
-
estevén (@superpaddiepads) reported@LessGrumpy @virginmedia Whenever I’ve had issues with Virgin it’s never been a UK call centre I’ve spoken to. Tend to avoid now but just left again after a couple of years of thankfully issue free broadband. Moved to PlusNet which is Openreach rebranded but far cheaper.
-
Wingssherpa (@WingsSherpa) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK No surprise Virgin Media was fined by OFCOM last week for its poor customer service, Michelle.
-
Bob (@ChrisJordan1002) reported@MichelleBeckett @SkyUK @VodafoneUK Virgin Media are unambiguously the worst company I’ve ever dealt with. They had the recent ruling against them for a reason. Profit over Compassion every single time…
-
Mark vix (@Vikk3rs146) reported@jaluch @virginmedia I just left after 30 years of being a customer because of that attitude..it’s true ,they couldn’t give a **** .
-
Stevie K (@the_k_bizzle) reported@virginmedia Billing system apparently down but you've took a double payment from my bank card. If its reflected on my account fine, but customer service can't help as theyve got issues and online shows "Something went wrong"
-
Becky (@Becky_Batch) reportedDealing with @virginmedia A Modern Day Horror Story May 4th: Engineer turns up to resolve a cable issue CAUSED by Virgin. ‘It’s a two person job, we will have to rearrange.’ May 21st: Waited in from 8-1pm, get a message at 1.30pm to say no one coming today
-
Dr Elaine Rust (@elainerust) reported@virginmedia I’ve sent a direct message but have received an auto response identical to the message you have already sent me. Is anyone prepared to help?
