Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Oxford, England
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Oxford and nearby locations:
-
Miles Gomme (@MilesGomme) reported from Cumnor, England@virginmedia I only use the hub as a router for my internal network of Dlan Wi-Fi extenders. This provides the best solution in my house. Having another Wi-Fi signal only causes more issues. Manual control is always the best solution! The Dlan routers stopped working….

Oxford Wolf /\_/\ 🔶 (@Oxfordwolf) reported from Oxford District, England@virginmedia I've just received my price rise letter. Utterly extortionate! I will be calling you later to move providers. Your WiFi router is terrible as well. Perhapse my new provider will let me use the Internet more than 6ft away from the router?
-
A1NOS (@a1_nos) reported from Abingdon, England@CloopR @virginmedia Just horrid. I had the same problem with Vodafone. In the end the only way I resolved it was a good friend was golfing buddies with the CEO otherwise I don’t think I’d have sorted it.
-

-
Lydia Smith (@LydSmiz) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia It’s been over a month since I sent an online complaint form (as advised by this account) and have heard nothing back since and it has been 4 months since the original issue (not to mention the 13 calls to customer service). When can I expect to hear back on my complaint?
-
Chris Dale (@chrisdaleoxford) reported from Oxfordshire, England@vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness @virginmedia A major fault apparently. They claim to be “working hard” to fix it. Shambles

Bill Butcher (@wcbutcher) reported from Kidlington, EnglandFor a communication co @virginmedia aren’t very commutative. Their internet is down AGAIN. 3rd time in 2 weeks. I saw one of their men at a roadside junction box. That’s dangerous they should leave that to the experts. I am seriously thinking of returning to @bt_uk
-
Amelia (@Amelia30549431) reported from Abingdon, England@LaurakBuzz @virginmedia They can slow down your service in busy times. Dodgy. It’s in the contract though
-
Amanda Davies (@AmandaD00131015) reported from Oxfordshire, England@virginmedia Still not had the courtesy of a phone call 30 days after making 2 complaints. I would NEVER EVER recommend @virginmedia @libertyglobal. I had a box fitted to my house without my permission & hadn’t ordered
-

Michelle Wolfenden (@ajthesheepdocto) reported from Grove, England@virginmedia Thank you - when I run the TV check it says there is an issue. Guess we just need to sit it out. Sadly we appear to be the only ones in the area with an issue (have asked around)
-
Bill Butcher (@wcbutcher) reported from Kidlington, England@Ofcom you need to take a serious look at @virginmedia their broadband and tv goes down for hours on a regular basis

Jordan (@JordanPsych_) reported@virginmedia ever since last Thursday I've been getting high ping issues on call of duty and this is a virgin media specific issue only. Any idea when this is getting fixed?
-
Albert Balinskk (@ABalinskk) reported@richardbranson hey, your virgin mobile uk is down in Central London EC1V. Your support from @virginmedia uk support line is closed
-
Sam Greenland (@SprocketEtQuill) reported@virginmedia Another Virgin Media engineer came out again to bury the cable from house to street. The cable is now in trunking over ground and the internet service was severed. You have said it will take yet another on-site engineer to fix the connection and left me without a connection for the week - until an engineer is available. You have, however, paid £100 towards the cost of the alternative internet provider. Your logic was £30 for data (on a #GiffGaff SIM card which I chose) and £70 for a dongle. I bought a £120 4G modem for external use that connects directly to my #Unifi switch on WAN2, bypassing your hub altogether and giving a connection back to my whole house rather than just one computer with a USB port. Given it's taken since November to bury this cable, I'm not convinced tomorrow's engineer will be able to fix the connection or bury the cable. We will see how the day unfolds. Your contact centre staff all aim to be very helpful, and your service (when it's working) does provide a decent connection most of the time, but your implementation is lacking.

@Live Chat Squad (@LSquad17045) reported@richbutz l am from virgin media customer service.

Dan (@UKDan86) reported@loldiplo @virginmedia I'm not defending them, i'm just calling you stupid.
-
Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported@VirginMedia We’ve had complete loss of internet since 2/5/26 due to broken cable, yet no proper fix or technician visit despite repeated promises. Instead, you sent someone to “clean router” & logged it as speed issue not total outage. This is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently.
-
Isla (@saoirseisla) reported@virginmedia 10 straight days. No WiFi/tv channels. No, it’s not an area outage,it started as one but now it’s a major issue affecting my connection.I’ve been on the app but it says no outage issues in my area. No one can seem to tell me when it will be fixed. I work from home and need wifi
-
Amy Heppingstall (@AmyHeppi) reported@virginmedia That’s all you ever do look into it never any action it improves for a few days then terrible it used to be such great service where has that service gone??
-
Ben (@BenjaminEHowe) reported@ndabas @TLRailUK More interesting IMO – the IP address 80.0.1.0 belongs to Virgin Media (as part of 80.0.0.0/13). I wonder if the PIS uses VM, or if they're just using public IP space on a private network and hoping for the best?

Jean Smith. Be kind and smile it costs nothing. (@JeanSmith551952) reported@garygilligan @virginmedia Phoned TalkTalk to add SafeCall. Answered within seconds. Lovely helpful person. Added the service, gave me £4 discount off my monthly bill then found another offer £2 less. So I have an extra service plus £5 a month saving for 18 months. Change to @TalkTalk they are excellent.
