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

  • gazhere57 Gary Hynes (@gazhere57) reported from Totton and Eling, England

    I have been trying to get through to @virginmedia by phone since lockdown to cancel all of my subscription services. I just never get through. I have had my new provider in place for months. It just seems Virgin are not interested in supporting customers that want to leave.

  • jenrudder Jen (@jenrudder) reported from Hamble-le-Rice, England

    @virginmedia Can you recheck. We are all getting different times for repair In Hamble. Some even said that they were told Thursday! Unacceptable, do we all get refunds for the down time?

  • harrisondafydd Harrison🚴‍♂️ (@harrisondafydd) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Don't do it. So many hidden fees, shite customer's service & woeful WiFi connection

  • spoise87 Marc (@spoise87) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I had no internet for a number of days, I was told that for that reason, that would be deducted from my bill pro rata. The new hub was sent free and fixed the issue

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    £15 to watch each football match that's not scheduled to be televised? **** off @premierleague you greedy bastards. no way I'm paying that. i already pay £110/month to @virginmedia as it is. I'll just watch other sports instead.

  • jenrudder Jen (@jenrudder) reported from Hamble-le-Rice, England

    @virginmedia so, I have run the tests and it is saying I need to book an engineer but the rest of Hamble seems to be down too so it doesn’t seem it is just my issue. Can you please tell us honestly if there is an issue?

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    ok, what's going on with @Channel4 and why is the signal going? either @virginmedia is playing up, or this is part of the @DerrenBrown experiment

  • spoise87 Marc (@spoise87) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes outage was fixed after about 3 days. I had to wait for a new router. Was told this would be deducted automatically from my next bill

  • GraceMajorx Grace (@GraceMajorx) reported from Locks Heath, England

    @virginmedia what a load of crap this company is! Wi-Fi never ever works, it’s down more times than it is on. Get through to customer services after an hour and half for them to say it’s fixed (for the millionth time), then 5 mins later Wi-Fi isn’t working AGAIN! 😡😡😡

  • PaulineR59 Pauline Richards (@PaulineR59) reported from Southampton, England

    @Virginmedia trying to speak to someone in customer service is joke! On hold for 35 minutes so far!

  • jenrudder Jen (@jenrudder) reported from Hamble-le-Rice, England

    @virginmedia Can you explain to me how the rest of the village is having issues and I need to book an engineer? Seriously?

  • spoise87 Marc (@spoise87) reported from Southampton, England

    @virginmedia I had an outage earlier this month and it hasn't been removed from my bill

  • Bermudgirl Marilyn McCubbin (@Bermudgirl) reported from Netley, England

    @virginmedia well I have more problems with your ‘goodselves’. My virgin is being cancelled (thank goodness) on 20 Aug 2020. So why have I had a bill of over £100 produced. My broadband outage has been rubbish. Please cancel this invoice and give me any due refund.

  • alex_jrobertson Alex Robertson 🏳️‍🌈 (@alex_jrobertson) reported from Southampton, England

    @guill0dean @virginmedia @VirginAtlantic It's a shame cause they've been really good with my parents. Fantastic speeds, friendly staff on the phone, speedy response. They've got nothing but praise for VM! It's one of the reasons I joined them for mobile. Mad how varied their customer service can be 🤔

  • jenrudder Jen (@jenrudder) reported from Hamble-le-Rice, England

    @virginmedia We have checked and as I said previously it said to book an engineer. However, the rest of the village says it out also so therefore, I presume it is a larger issue. How do we get this fixed?

  • enkeli85 Clare Old (@enkeli85) reported from Southampton, England

    Good thing we are on leave and not trying to work from home. @virginmedia Internet gone down again.... Engineer coming tomorrow so I only hope it fixes itself before then

  • Jamie_Lee_C Jamie Coleman (@Jamie_Lee_C) reported from Southampton, England

    @tom_will_banks @PlacesLeisure I had a similar issue with Virgin Media. Cancelled my subscription and randomly 4 months later they started taking money from my account. I got a refund but I just though how sneaky..

  • MatthewKing35 Matthew King (@MatthewKing35) reported from Southampton, England

  • ricoclay Enrico Clay (@ricoclay) reported from Fair Oak, England

    @LewisClayy @virginmedia She then put me through to customer services who she said will be able to process the order. 1/2 hour later they answered to be told that technical will need process the order and will have to put me through. I have to say @virginmedia I’m sick of BTS and Carly Rae Jepson now

  • Keifski Craig Keith (@Keifski) reported from Ringwood, England

    @Kate_likes_ @virginmedia I’m in the BH postcode and can’t even get Virgin Media.... annoying as the speed everywhere else is ****!

  • RealHankWolfman Wolfman (@RealHankWolfman) reported

    @virginmedia I've been very unhappy with my service price for a long time, but my attempts to try to contact you to get a better deal never get anywhere. You've sent me a letter saying my bill is going up even more, and to call to discuss it, but I can't do that. I tried using

  • kengray1967 Ken Gray (@kengray1967) reported

    @virginmedia 10%! My service isn't improving 10% so existing users will continue to fund the deals you offer new customers

  • Evohab Jay Habera (@Evohab) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John unfortunately the issue is not fixed & can cancellations contact us directly please as we cannot contact them ASAP

  • angryvan andy zed (@angryvan) reported

    @virginmedia It says there's problems in the area. But the reason for switching broadband off for a week so you can test the hub 5 with no notice is a joke.

  • WaterInMyOtter WaterInMyOtter (@WaterInMyOtter) reported

    @virginmedia Clearly missing my point. I’m not going to pay more for what has become a decline in service.

  • SavileRowWatch Savile Row Watch Co (@SavileRowWatch) reported

    @virginmedia It doesn’t matter who you call which team no one helps they just pass the buck or put the phone down

  • SavileRowWatch Savile Row Watch Co (@SavileRowWatch) reported

    @virginmedia Why don’t you offer a solution instead of asking stupid questions
