Virgin Media Issues Reports Near St Albans, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in St Albans and nearby locations:

  • BancoDePapa グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from London, England

    @TfL why is the 4G signal on the Central line underground only around the posh area's of Notting Hill Gate, Queensway and Holland Park? Since @virginmedia stopped their WiFi in April it's annoying that a major metropolis like London has no internet connections on a lot of lines

  • WilsonJevelyn Dr Jan Evelyn-Wilson (@WilsonJevelyn) reported from London, England

    @VirginMedia wi-fi just cut out AGAIN! Annoying when one is in the middle of something. WHY!

  • _Lewis_A Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England

    @ameehan71 @virginmedia All new and reconnected. 200mb then next day nothing, comes on for a day then drops to 10mb. Talk to customer service and they don't have a clue. They also want over £400 for me to leave. Worst service I've ever known

  • _Lewis_A Lewis Allen ⚒ (@_Lewis_A) reported from London, England

    So @virginmedia won't let me leave our contract despite their service continually crashing or not providing the speed it promises. Ultrafast broadband but getting nothing or 9mb download. Fed up with it now. Avoid them at all costs. #VirginMediaoutage #broadband

  • BancoDePapa グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from Haringey, England

    @virginmedia can I have the customer service number to cancel my broadband.... There are seemingly better deals out there for faster services

  • DannyTsang Danny Tsang (@DannyTsang) reported from Stevenage District, England

    @Ofcom Thanks. I wasn't able to find anything on @virginmedia site for requesting compensation so I have raised a complaint instead.

  • shah4569 Shah 🦅 (@shah4569) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia All these problems. But still fleecing money from us.

  • shah4569 Shah 🦅 (@shah4569) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia bring back customer service to the UK. Philippines is a joke!

  • stuart_foy foy (@stuart_foy) reported from Haringey, England

    lying in bed and I've just realised I can't turn off my lights because @virginmedia has been down since I got home. this is the future, lads

  • paulstevenlewis Paul Lewis (@paulstevenlewis) reported from Mill Hill East, England

    @virginmedia So you cancel the service months if not years before the 4G replacement is a really extensive alternative, while increasing your prices and telling customers “sorry, but that’s tough”. I understand your team is just at the sharp end dealing with flack, but that’s really bad of VM

  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England

    Called @virginmedia , now a technician booked. Outages are now common, there’s little communication from @virginmedia on actual status, even the service status page is usually out of date and the call centre staff admitted to me they don’t know what’s going on.

  • spandya1 Sandeep Pandya (@spandya1) reported from Watford District, England

    @virginmedia broadband is up and down again, today in WD17. Are you continuing to experience general service issues ?

  • MSiewniak Michal Siewniak (@MSiewniak) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    Dear @virginmedia & @VirginMediaCC A day to forget, wasn’t it? All day problems with my internet connections. Thousands of people affected. In my case, I needed the internet to work and it seems like that the issue was resolved this afternoon. How can I claim compensation?

  • BancoDePapa グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from London, England

    I wonder if anyone has a #skyglass connected to a #virginmedia broadband? At least with #SkyQ your TV service will be unaffected

  • MelanieHart72 Melanie Hart (@MelanieHart72) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia You have put my bill up from £84 to £96 in one month and you are not providing a service I should have my full services 24/7 for that price and getting any compensation it like getting blood out of a stone !!! Disgusting service

  • angelstorm13 Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Welwyn Hatfield, England

    And it's down again. #virginmedia

  • Gosbo68 Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported from Northaw and Cuffley, England

    @Bazza_68 @virginmedia Up. Then down again. That’s the 4th time today.

  • crimimel Mel B (@crimimel) reported from Welwyn Garden City, England

    @virginmedia Hope we’re getting a refund for lack of service as daughter is trying to write her 10,000 word dissertation but very difficult to do without internet. Should not advertise deals to new customers if you don’t bother sorting out the network issues. Cancelling

  • Gosbo68 Grant Osborn (@Gosbo68) reported from Northaw and Cuffley, England

    @virginmedia Wi-Fi still down.

  • angelstorm13 Ella A Cutler (@angelstorm13) reported from Welwyn Hatfield, England

    Yet again dispicable lack of customer service from #virginmedia for the 7+ hr outage. Not even one tweet. Your customer service dept needs sacking! How can you run a company like this and charge us so much! @virginmedia #virginmediadown

    @virginmedia Called number and spoke to a recorded answering service Informed no faults, but my broadband is slow Wish we could actually speak to somebody.

  • Gentooo0 A (@Gentooo0) reported

    @virginmedia you guys have the worst customer service number ever why ******** am I talking to a robot for 20 mins you ******* retards hope u all ******* go bankrupt u lil filthy *****

  • SusieWJr Susan Johnson (@SusieWJr) reported from Himley, England

    @virginmedia The status checker says intermittent signal in your area. It's disgusting with how much I pay for broadband.

  • doberguy53 Matthew 🇬🇧🇹🇭 (@doberguy53) reported

    47 minutes so far on the phone to @virginmedia. All I want to do is cancel! Gives me plenty of time to write negative reviews online I guess.

  • Nigel60007 Sir.Nigel60007 3.5% #RejoinEU 🇪🇺 (@Nigel60007) reported

    @virginmedia I have a problem with very slow WiFi I am in LS9 7PT I have rebooted my router several times with no difference Thank you

  • FeedTheSpud Aaron (@FeedTheSpud) reported

    @virginmedia easily the worst customer service - ever. Incredibly unhelpful in every way possible; from keypad options not working to staff who don’t understand questions. Avoid.

  • Dizwod Diz (@Dizwod) reported

    @virginmedia Nope. Engineer comes does same work as the engineers before and then issue reoccurs. Only so many times you can replace the router. The wiring. The sockets. The equipment in the cabinet. External cables. Everything else before you decide to stop increasing prices

  • cryptowannabATH cryptowannabe (@cryptowannabATH) reported

    @virginmedia Well, actually owe me money, but I doubt you will apply late payment fees to yourself, but you are a shambles, so you never know.

  • JJAMESSTEVENSON 𝙹𝙰𝙼𝙴𝚂 𝚂𝚃𝙴𝚅𝙴𝙽𝚂𝙾𝙽 🎮 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@JJAMESSTEVENSON) reported

    @virginmedia Over 3 weeks for a fix yet I'm still not able to get compensation for the issue because it's "INTERMITTENT" & not down well it's an absolute joke!!!

  • CarlSpencer1969 Carl Spencer (@CarlSpencer1969) reported

    Finally given up on @virginmedia Please see the email I've sent to the complaints email address, 4 weeks of no service, contract terminated today I don't know if it's incompetence or lies, whichever it is you have plenty of it
