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

  • TheBadgerG Thom Gibbons (@TheBadgerG) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia Yes, zero issues in area for broadband, pulled apart and reset the router numerous times. It just keeps wanting to download new settings, works for a bit and then fails. Engineer now booked for next Wednesday which is an eternity running my business from home.

  • Chateauneuf64 Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia And there you have the extent of VM customer care folks!

  • Chateauneuf64 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!

  • nickybootyy Nicky Booty (@nickybootyy) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia when will the problems in rg1 be resolved?

  • TimSBourne Tim Bourne (@TimSBourne) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia I'm sick of explaining this again & again - see previous tweets & msgs to VM. It isn't even noted - yesterday 2nd line support looked at my ticket & said I'm "not receiving any emails" NO NO NO! Just emails with etickets attached, even tho get non ticket emails from same sources

  • robmcewan1966 Rob McEwan (@robmcewan1966) reported from Finchampstead, England

    @virginmedia Truly astounding. I have spent hours trying to get virgin to actually carry out promises made and we’re still not there. I’ll swear the customer services reps I speak to are under so much pressure to move on to the next call they make it up as they go.

  • DimiD35089880 DimiD (@DimiD35089880) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia Promised date someone to sort external connections come and gone and still same s*****. Can’t believe 4 weeks and nobody can’t fix it. 🤔I think something is fishy @virginmedia get it sorted

  • K74Marti Marti Jerrard - K74 (@K74Marti) reported from Farnborough, England

    @virginmedia I have followed every instruction as advised. Turned off, set, check status and even network issue in area.. it just keeps dropping out daily with no know issues. It’s as if faster broadband has actually slowed it all down! Pse sort it out

  • K74Marti Marti Jerrard - K74 (@K74Marti) reported from Farnborough, England

    Everyday this week and again today @virginmedia has stopped working… constant resets and in some cases down for 3-4 hrs at a time which is preventing work, training, education & entertainment! Come on #Virgin sort your reliability out pse

  • Geordiesbird Alyson Leitch (@Geordiesbird) reported from Wokingham, England

    @virginmedia is there an outage in Woking? No WiFi at all for 2 hours so far. 😫😫🤬

  • Chateauneuf64 Bowlesy (@Chateauneuf64) reported from Wokingham, England

    Really hard to support brand @virginmedia and recommend them to anyone for Broadband. They may be the only competitor to BT but do you have to compete for last place?

  • MikeBiscoe1 Mike Biscoe (@MikeBiscoe1) reported from Reading, England

    @GiganetUK @virginmedia 13:25. Down again…

  • fayeharland 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.

  • fayeharland faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Woolhampton, England

    @virginmedia hi there not sure if you can help. We’ve been trying to contact my Uncle for a few days on his landline and it’s going direct to the message service. We’re getting quite worried about him and wondered if it’s possible to see if there’s a fault on the line?

  • davedec60 Dave Crocker (@davedec60) reported from Reading, England

    So @virginmedia once more we have an outage, how many times now in the last 3 months? NOT GOOD ENOUGH!! Currently looking at switching supplier

  • DimiD35089880 DimiD (@DimiD35089880) reported from Camberley, England

  • fayeharland faye harland (@fayeharland) reported from Reading, England

    @virginmedia I’m not sure if they do. Happy to do another web chat to cancel.

  • DimiD35089880 DimiD (@DimiD35089880) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia can’t even set up hub properly. 3 weeks since I upgraded my speed and I receive still the same but they keep insisting (we made changes will approve by tomorrow) REALLY!!! Is technical support think we are so stupid. Get a grip @virginmedia next stop complaints

  • DimiD35089880 DimiD (@DimiD35089880) reported from Camberley, England

    @virginmedia We have engineer booked for today to see what is the issue as since I upgraded never had such a bad service experience for the last 12 years with @virginmedia

    @virginmedia Are you having a laugh? COM104312534 & C-0411201745 I only raised one call. This saga ongoing since July 20. Why is it made so difficult for your customers to cancel Premier Sports one click to subscribe? Expect a full refund & whatever else VM would offer as a goodwill gesture.

  • TazXGold TazXGold (@TazXGold) reported

    Yep what a joke @virginmedia not even 2 days since last time i have reset my router done everything and i have 5 down and 10 up when i am supposed to have 200 down and 20 up what a joke making sure we leave your **** service now 👍🤬

  • quda_kwashe Dimitrius Demarcus Bartholomew James III (@quda_kwashe) reported

    Hey @virginhelp @virginmedia come and rip out your awful internet out of my house, I’m tired of it. Every single day at night your internet cuts off. Why? Why?

  • AmyWest81 Amy West (@AmyWest81) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been on hold for 1hr30mins and have had to hang up. Your online form says you take 28 days to respond. How can I speak to someone about my complaint if I can’t get through on the phone?

  • RealDrBoom DrBoom (@RealDrBoom) reported

    @virginmedia Hey, my uncle just moved house and I was wondering if there is any way to get an estimate of how many mb/s and the price of it online, if he wanted to have virgin media as broadband. Could you help us? Thanks for your time

  • SebVettelFake Sebastian Vettel Fake 🎄 (@SebVettelFake) reported

    @StrollSZN @virginmedia Trying to get fit again. It's so difficult, especially since I keep remembering how far I got last time. I know I can do it again but I'm currently at the crossroads where I either believe in myself, or fail. Today, even 'though I could barely run 5 minutes, I believed.

  • J0ckD Marc (@J0ckD) reported

    @virginmedia @SkyHelpTeam Now I can't contact customer service as just cuts me off .. your opening times are till 10pm... wtf

  • PeterBakerMcfc Peter Baker 👀 (@PeterBakerMcfc) reported

    @virginmedia @markgoldbridge @lawrence_bury Why are you asking that idiot Forest fan Sandra Goldbridge ?

  • marklennon82 Mark Lennon (@marklennon82) reported

    @virginmedia Not been able to log a complaint as I’m not prepared to spend another hour trying to get through on the phone. Can you provide me with an email as requested?

  • AllyStephen Ally Stephen (@AllyStephen) reported

    @virginmedia what is happening with my broadband and now my tv? I spend an awful lot of money with you and get an awful lot of non-existent stuff!
