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

  • NickNwarhurst Nick Warhurst (@NickNwarhurst) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia the company that’s only looks after new customers, not long serving ones. Me: paying £34 for vivid100. New customers £29 or £34 for vivid200. VM customer services, well you can have vivid200 for only £54. 😳🤬

  • bromley001 Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia No, everything on there is telling me 'very good'. But! Ironically, during this very exchange, my signal has popped up (although it's now not as strong as when I started writing this Tweet). Looks like me looking at the website has scared it into working. :D

  • bromley001 Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted my phone earlier, no effect. Not actually had to call or text anyone today, but my signal icon has said 'Emergency Calls Only' all day. I'll definitely check that signal strength link though, thanks.

  • nathandainty Nathan Dainty (@nathandainty) reported from Sheffield, England

    @sky @virginmedia hey @SkyUK You should tell your customer service: “Online, mail and telephone order customers have the right to cancel their order for a limited time even if the goods aren’t faulty. Sales of this kind are known as ‘distance selling’…

  • relish_hendy Relish Hendy (@relish_hendy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia dear team I can't check account online as don't have login details handy but area code is sheffield 14 I think theres been no TV or WiFi since about 5pm please check status of area

  • bromley001 Si (@bromley001) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia It's the same place & situation as yesterday, and, once again, after a few hours of no signal, once I actually Tweet about it, it suddenly reappears! No worries here now, ta.

  • SuperFlySimon Simon Burkinshaw (@SuperFlySimon) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia why should I have to pay when I’m not being able to use the service I pay for

  • w47carr Mrs c (@w47carr) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia are you aving problems with ITV channel mines gone off in the s70 area

  • JaseCritchley Jase Critchley (@JaseCritchley) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia I didn't realise when I negotiated a deal I'd be automatically entitled to no compensation and rubbish customer services. Lesson learnt.

  • JaseCritchley Jase Critchley (@JaseCritchley) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @NickJames1988 @virginmedia Ours is down again Nick in s74. TV down too.

  • Colderthananice Maxine Spencer (@Colderthananice) reported from Mexborough, England

    @MetLineDriver @virginmedia Remember they were on my bad company list

  • JoeInSheffield Joe 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🔶 (@JoeInSheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @TrainedPengling @virginmedia The problem I have with this, is that whenever their broadband has gone down, so had my mobile with them at same time. Like when it all went down nationwide earlier this month. Having free 4g when you actually can't connect is kinda pointless lol

  • JaseCritchley Jase Critchley (@JaseCritchley) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia Yes, dispite your Call Centre saying no area issues your status page says otherwise. Fix at 10pm. Lost all services not just internet.

  • tal_kev kev adams (@tal_kev) reported from Hoyland Nether, England

    @virginmedia come on now,This is getting pathetic now.trying to watch a film on Netflix and it's buffering all the time.15mps supposed to be 100mps.absolute joke.should be able to cancel contract as I am not getting what I pay for#falseadvertising#lyingthroughyourteeth

  • tryfbellamy tryf (@tryfbellamy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia gunna sort your shit internet out or what

  • shell163 michelle levick (@shell163) reported from Chesterfield, England

    @virginmedia That would be me then, no service since lunchtime!!

  • Claredo91857219 Clare doyle (@Claredo91857219) reported from Barnsley, England

    @Alroblade @virginmedia Who you gone to. I need to kick them into touch. Crap service and a rip off price that gets money expensive each year x

  • crawfordjane74 Jane Crawford (@crawfordjane74) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia ....it's about time that you had a service where you cancel part of your package via your TV.....30 mins on hold isn't funny😡

  • crawfordjane74 Jane Crawford (@crawfordjane74) reported from Wentworth, England

    @virginmedia ....I just want to cancel Premier Sports. The guy who answered after 30 mins was polite but your system crashed twice. Not sure it's been cancelled and don't have another spare 30 mins to call again

  • JoeInSheffield Joe 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🔶 (@JoeInSheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia Nothing has happened today, I'm just commenting on your offer to give all broadband customers free mobile 4g when your broadband goes down. Whenever my broadband had gone down, so has my cellular connection also.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • purelypoetry Colin Dardis (Rancid Idols Productions) (@purelypoetry) reported

    @virginmedia I am already a customer, trying to register online account.

  • Grumpy_Old__Man Big Dean (@Grumpy_Old__Man) reported

    @virginmedia just cancelled my account and your customer service is utterly appalling - the hard sell tactics you use to try and keep the customer are aggressive and simply bullying. It's fair to say that I will not be back or recommend Virgin Media to anyone. #PoorService

  • Teniente_Drebin Teniente_Drebin (@Teniente_Drebin) reported

    @virginmedia @O2 @virginmedia No 4G signal in Winchester - I had to switch manually to 3g otherwise my phone doesnt work at all. Yes, I have tried resetting working network and I have done already all I can on my phone. How can you assist with this before I just move to another provider?

  • lawes7878 Tilly's Mum (@lawes7878) reported

    @virginmedia It's happening on Broadband and Wifi. Calls are only ever on wired network. Thought it was when there were 2 people working from home but it's not that 😕

  • RomanenkoLeo L R (@RomanenkoLeo) reported

    @virginmedia Far from ideal indeed. Outages happen, I get that. However, have raised a complaint on the lack of comms & lack of update via website. Keeping customers informed of known issues should be an easy win. Would appreciate your escalating it up your chain too.

  • mimms1013 Miriam (@mimms1013) reported

    @virginmedia Apparently the system agrees I'm not on a contract, but it's "automatically generated" onto an account. So my account shows a contract which is untrue and doesn't exist, and customer services don't seem to think that's a) misleading / lying or b) a rubbish customer experience!

  • darrendevally Darren de Vally 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ (@darrendevally) reported

    @virginmedia Honestly, they don’t check. They just tell me no by looking up postcode. I’m that certain it’s really available that if you send someone to look and they really can’t service my property that I’d pay for the visit if they can prove it’s unserviceable.

  • MartyMcG88 Marty McGrath (@MartyMcG88) reported

    @TweetGiffen I rang virgin media to cancel next thing they were handing out offers like if i was to leave they would be out of business lmao

  • tomwbeam Tom Weaver (@tomwbeam) reported

    trying to cancel @virginmedia is harder than...... (you tell me)

  • StoicOld OldStoic (@StoicOld) reported

    @virginmedia Well ask them please, when normal service will resume. It’s the least you can do..
