Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Pontefract, England

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

  • MENorthAffinity Michael Edwards (@MENorthAffinity) reported from Leeds, England

    It feels like @virginmedia and @VodafoneUK are having some weird competition to decide who has the most inept and frustrating customer experience competition. No one is perfect but to be this consistently terrible is almost admirable.

  • Mcollinson72 Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia ongoing intermittent issues with my broadband for weeks now and yet your website gives no option to get through to anyone to help despite it promising to do so. Keeps telling me to check back in 24 hours. Unacceptable level of service!

  • Nigel_BigNn Nigel Jolly (@Nigel_BigNn) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia can anyone tell me what's happening with the internet service in Leeds 16 area it been going on and off all day now it's not good enough

  • jmyorks Just Music Yorkshire 🎵 (@jmyorks) reported from Garforth, England

    @virginmedia Are you serious, 24 hrs on chat being sent from pillar to post, to every area of virgin, repeatedly asked for account number when I don't have not will ever want to be a customer

  • Yamusenghore Yamu Matarr 🇬🇲 🇬🇧 🦂 (@Yamusenghore) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia. It's getting ridiculous that my Internet has been jumping up and down like a skipping rope. LS8. I can't get anything done due to no connection. I do not want to use my mobile data anymore. Please sort this.

  • jmyorks Just Music Yorkshire 🎵 (@jmyorks) reported from Garforth, England

    @virginmedia do I get an award. Nine hours and counting on chat just clocked up and not one inch forward despite being passed from one wrong department to another when asked for customer services at 9.05am and have been through every department but then

  • jmyorks Just Music Yorkshire 🎵 (@jmyorks) reported from Garforth, England

    @virginmedia do I get an award. None hours on chat just clocked up and not one inch forward despite being passed from one wrong department to another when asked for customer services at 9.05am and have been through every department but then.

  • suellen2623 sue ellen draper 💙🇺🇦💛 (@suellen2623) reported from Leeds, England

    @O2 and @virginmedia should be ashamed of themselves. 10 tickets per customer is not right. Their loyal honest customers once again miss out thanks to the greedy. As for the websites complete joke should have been prepared for this!!!! #peterkaytickets

  • Mcollinson72 Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    Slow glad to be moving from @virginmedia broadband this Friday. Their advertised speeds used to be unparalleled but since FTTP alternatives becoming available their appalling level of service and refusal to acknowledge or deal with faults has forced a once loyal customer

  • Churchill0782 The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  • leedsfan91 james Staniforth (@leedsfan91) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia internet knacked again been like this for last month. And you charge us for this crap service

  • Mcollinson72 Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    What an absolute shower of shite service as usual from @virginmedia they literally couldn’t care any less

  • Churchill0782 The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia do you care to give an update regarding services being down in the WF1 area of Wakefield? You estimate keeps changing which is becoming really annoying!! Literally 1000s of households without an Internet connection. #wakefield #poorservice

  • MatthewJP2014 Matthew Preston (@MatthewJP2014) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia @O2 what's the point Virgin is as bad as BT I was supposed to have Virgin Broadband & phone installed on Friday got told yesterday it was delayed til December 1st earliest with no reason as to why asked for a 5G router to get me by til then was put on hold for 20 mins then cut off.

  • Churchill0782 The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia all services in the WF1 area of Wakefield have been down all day and looking like 6pm to be fixed. Will you be applying any credit to people's accounts?? Good will gesture and all that! #wakefield

  • Aidan1964 Aidan Carey (@Aidan1964) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I'm a new customer and cannot access my account. I've spoken to your customer service team a number of times and they haven't been able to sort my issue out. My account is tagged as a secondary account, but I'm the primary account holder!

  • deangledhill Dean Gledhill (@deangledhill) reported from Leeds, England

    @virginmedia Yep did that but the signal strength went . Not strong enough to use upstairs

  • Mcollinson72 Michael Collinson (@Mcollinson72) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia awful and aggressive scare tactics from your not so friendly cancellations rep when trying to cancel my service. God help any vulnerable person that tries to do the same thing. Shameful

  • rywilnot Ryan Wilson (@rywilnot) reported from Darton, England

    @SkyHelpTeam broadband this week has been shocking. Following the help and test in the app says all is well (funny that). Not really sure what I’m paying for. Back to @virginmedia

  • SamWatt30745054 Sam Watts (@SamWatt30745054) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve run test after test, at least 5-6 outages a month for last 2 years. Horrendous service and this is the final straw unless you offer me a refund of say £20 a month for last two years, if not I’m going BT and a dodgy box from Mad Frank in pub

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • KirstenHawley1 Kirsten Hawley (@KirstenHawley1) reported

    @virginmedia No we know what the issue is, the cable outside has been cut so needs replacing but yet a technician can't be sent due to Covid but he doesn't have to enter our property. Yesterday it was fine when booking it and today we get a text saying it cancelled! So what do we do now.

  • cian_foster Cian Foster (@cian_foster) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. Is the 5GHZ Broadband down as mine has been gone all day! I can see the 2.4GHZ, however the 5GHZ has disappeared. I have checked and it’s enabled. I’ve tried restarting the hub

  • JoshCAFC43 Joshua Tarling 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇩🇰 (@JoshCAFC43) reported

    @virginmedia When calling about tech issues I am told by a pre recorded voice that you are unable to put me through to a human

  • LozGreen_ Lauren (@LozGreen_) reported

    @virginmedia Nope, your website tells me when I log in to check the service status

  • taronipops Tara (@taronipops) reported

    @virginmedia It's not just a security camera. It's a phone, a PC, and sometimes a firestick. All issues are intermittent and inconsistent; and some devices never have issues. I've had to buy wifi velop nodes to ensure a consistent wifi connection.

  • no1_hotspur Craig Preece (@no1_hotspur) reported

    @LanceAntony @virginmedia Just hope it transfers into good WiFi, we have the 600 and the WiFi is trash. They do try and help but, they just keep repeating same rubbish. e.g get 600 coming into house with 5-50 on WiFi. Trash

  • fairbanksfamily tasha (@fairbanksfamily) reported

    @virginmedia I highly doubt it. Will see at 6pm when they don’t turn up. Intermittent service 5 days now

  • SpursSingh SpurOn (@SpursSingh) reported

    @virginmedia I've tried that and it's not just me, two other people on my road who are with Virgin have the same issue.

  • fairbanksfamily tasha (@fairbanksfamily) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been waiting in all day for a 8-1pm appointment been told 3 time will be here before 6 for a reinstall of cables due to loss service but the engineer is advised when called only work mornings for these jobs. Not impressed 4 days no service

  • askinc27 Cino (@askinc27) reported

    @virginmedia You can send a phone the next day but not a hub. How convinient. Will cancelling, been with virgin for 10 years but your service isngetong worse
