Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Reading and nearby locations:
-
Razvan Neacsu (@RNeacsu) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia Internet keeps disconnecting. Called, useless as always. Intermittent issues or connectivity issues. Just send an engineer to check, why wait for another 24h when this is an ongoing issue. I've even reset the hub, still same issues.
-
Sharon Leaver (@leaver_sharon) reported from Bracknell, England@virginmedia Sorted now. Received an envelope last week with an adaptor. A leaflet inside stated we would receive an email when to change it. No such email received. Communication very poor

-
Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia And there you have the extent of VM customer care folks!
-
Phil Stacey (@PhilStace20) reported from Maidenhead, EnglandHey @virginmedia I forgot how awful you were when it came to anything other than collecting my direct debit. Apparently you don’t have a complaints dept, genius, and after 4 calls to you today totally around three hours, you cut two of them off during the musical interlude!
-
Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England@virginmedia Broadband down again, 2nd week in a row. Had one day of service and stupidly canx Engineer due next day and hey presto back down we go again. 1 week wait for engineer, 1 day of BB, and now earliest slot for Engineer +1 week. Buyer beware. Typing whilst 50 mins holding with VM!
-
faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Reading, England@virginmedia Hi again. Just letting you know we’ve made contact with him and all seems fine. So please can we cancel the engineer for Friday.
-
Andy Barr 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@AndyBarr79) reported from Reading, England@virginmedia I can't sign in as I no longer hold an account, your CS don't care and obviously fobbing me off and not raising complaints as requested, I will just pursue via FCA and/or trading standards.

shaun harley (@shaun1968) reported from Didcot, England@virginmedia I'm expecting a replacement set top box to replace a broken tivo. Told it will be delivered Weds. but I've had no confirmation email and not showing in my virgin app. Can anyone help
-
Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, England@virginmedia let me down once again with their pathetic service. First the broadband was extremely slow all day and now the Hub is gone. No emergency appointment and I have to wait for a week for a technician visit. @Ofcom
-
Paul Mackenzie Ross (@pmross) reported from Farnborough, England@virginmedia Nope. There’s “nothing wrong” with the broadband according to the status page. Never is. It’s always the hub supposedly downloading updates. 10 weeks of this now, getting a bit bored of the lack of service TBH. This needs to be escalated.
-
Paul Austin (@BagshotTwit) reported from Camberley, England@virginmedia I upgraded to the Ultimate Oomph package in Jan but still waiting for the order to be completed. I’ve contacted customer services on numerous times but no success, I’ve also raised a complaint. How do I actually get some help to complete the order?
-
CM40 (@CM40UK) reported from Blackwater, England@virginmedia Yes I have on multiple occasions, I have just been taking to engineer who running the 30 day test, while taking to him I had 3 lost connection issues. Your employees are trying say that I will have to pay to leave my contract, @Ofcom state, I can leave without penalty
-
Khurram Qayam (@kqbrain) reported from Reading, EnglandAnother day of pathetic experience on @virginmedia broadband service. No broadband service in RG6 area. Regretting my decision to switch. @Ofcom @DowndetectorUK
-
Cameron🏴 (@CRJG_) reported from Bracknell, EnglandHuge congrats to @virginmedia for having a web chat service that is so bad that I joined the chat to upgrade my broadband, but after waiting for an eternity for replies I’m pretty much ready to just close my account
-
Callum Penny (@callum_penny) reported from Fleet, England@virginmedia no WiFi for the past 4 hours now… have ran tests to solve issues. Says service is fine in area again now but still nothing? Gu52 area code
-
Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England@virginmedia *sigh*. Been directed to this many times. Had engineers referred many times. This is a persistent issue that raises its ugly head far too frequently

Reformed Prisoner (@formerprisoner_) reported@virginmedia 2/2 cont… ombudsman. You constantly failed to deliver a service, made constant promises and failed to deliver on them, so you were left with no choice but to agree to the cancellation. You are quite comfortably the worst broadband provider I have ever come across.
-
Andrea (@Gertrudemo81) reported@virginmedia Hi. We are having broadband issues in our area. It says fixed date 17th April. Surely that can’t be right? A week away to fix it??
-
Leighton J Holden (@LJHolden1986) reported@virginmedia I need some help. I have had an O2 SIM card tagged onto my WiFi account. I never wanted this but I was told that I could just throw this away and not use it. I am now being charged £7.50 per month for absolutely nothing. Can you please advise on how I deal with this?
-
just me (@PHILROOKS) reported@sharonmariahall @virginmedia It's not @virginmedia I find the issue, it's the poor customer service. I cannot understand how a CEO doesn't see all the bad reviews and do something about it.
-
Ben Eaton (@BenEato46743114) reported@virginmedia Just cancelled my broadband because you want £33 for m350 but new customers get m500 for £24 how does that work been with you for nearly ten years but a new customer gets a better deal 👍.
-
Karen Cheney (@loubylou60) reported@virginmedia your customer service is abysmal- sort it out
-
Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported@virginmedia and another update just received saying it will be fixed today. Honestly, make your mind up. The BB service is excellent when it works. When it doesn't you guys seem to take a trip to the local brewery and drink lemonde!
