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

  • michaeltruefitt Michael Truefitt (@michaeltruefitt) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia Are you planning on giving all your customers a discount for your constant broadband issues and not delivering what people are paying for? I see it was fixed earlier but it’s gone down once again in the last hour. It seems to be a daily occurrence now.

  • garycross Gary Cross (@garycross) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Spoken with two different agents and got teo different answers. One said there was a known fault and the other said the opposite. Second agent claimed he booked me a virtual help call hut nobody called. I've ended up having to book my own engineer visit. Nobody has been helpful.

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia @VMO2News please with pay for someone capable to fix your custom super hub firmware or get rid of it! Hub5 won’t release IP addressed and your middle ware completely messes up Wi-Fi naming and password changes (even the first use one which isn’t even a change)

  • DenhamKite Denham Kite (@DenhamKite) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia - what number do I call to talk to a real person to sort this rubbish before I cancel?

  • NickFitz Nick Fitzsimons (@NickFitz) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @PreetBharara @ZellaQuixote Around 2009 or 2010. I had a computer with a modem that could send faxes that was just about working, and I had to get @virginmedia to send an engineer out to fix my landline. The landline broke again a month or two later and hasn’t worked since, though they still bill me for it.

  • im_raj16 Meghraj (@im_raj16) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Can you please send someone to fix the issue ? Please

  • juanfelipe1 John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm looking at the new Sky Stream service that starts on 18th October combined with Three 5G broadband. Both offer rolling 1 month contracts

  • DazCarson68 Darren Carson (@DazCarson68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia I understand but surely you must have some sort of system? Purposely making it impossible to cancel is ridiculous

  • DazCarson68 Darren Carson (@DazCarson68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hard to cancel when SMS, text and phone never answered

  • im_raj16 Meghraj (@im_raj16) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia It’s the same plz help me or plz disconnect the service I give up.

  • juanfelipe1 John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia Or you could invite your customers to get in touch when out of contract or you could even tell us what deals are on offer to help us stay. I suspect you don't because you realise that inertia effects are high when it comes to changing broadband packages.

  • Katie68833952 Katie (@Katie68833952) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia I'm not sure why, but our Internet and TV aren't currently working! No email to say work is being done. Online even says there's no issue which there clearly is. Area is LE2

  • worksopchap worksopchap (@worksopchap) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia can you help me merge my accounts ? I am a new customer and can’t access the app

  • W4lshy_85 jennie walsh (@W4lshy_85) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia once again absolute outstanding useless customer care 👌🏻 #virginmedia #gotosky 👍🏼

  • worksopchap worksopchap (@worksopchap) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia I can’t find the last message where this thread started - I’ll go to the bot system - I’m a returning customer - need to reactivate my account etc

  • DjDno Dean Blavins (@DjDno) reported from Chadwell, England

    Ffs, there it goes again!! Sort your **** out @virginmedia

  • juanfelipe1 John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm having the same issue. For the period of lockdown I could broadly rely on the signal to my home office. The last 2/3 months I haven't and I am constantly having to tether my mobile at my expense. The router hasn't moved and neither has my office. The service has just worsened

  • Manraj_Virkk Manraj (@Manraj_Virkk) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia why does my wifi keep cutting out every 15 mins for about 2 mins then come back? Not great when I work from home and my meetings cut out midway through…

  • DazCarson68 Darren Carson (@DazCarson68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia @Muggleflump Same here, impossible to cancel which is more than likely done on purpose, terrible company ethics

  • DazCarson68 Darren Carson (@DazCarson68) reported from Chadwell, England

    @virginmedia hi, could you advise the best method to speak to someone regards a request for return of kit after house move? Chat bot does not help, need to contact an agent thanks

  • WestWickhamGeek Mr N (@WestWickhamGeek) reported

    @virginmedia So, you’re telling me you cannot tell me if I received a call at 3:00am? I fail to believe that.

  • BreeFrancis_ Bree 🐝 (@BreeFrancis_) reported

    What time does virgin customer services close? 8pm or 11pm @virginmedia disappointment is not the word.

  • RTG299 Rtg299 (@RTG299) reported

    @HarryButAverage @virginmedia It’s says my internet is Fast When it’s actually very slow and when I call them 🤬

  • ReeceyBee reece (@ReeceyBee) reported

    @virginmedia Have had problems with my upload speed as of the last few days. Done a pinhole reset. Unplugged. Checked ethernets. Checked service status in my area and says it's fine. Any help?

  • JB9071 John Brereton (@JB9071) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve tried three times to contact customer services on the phone and the calls keep cutting off after 45-50 mins. With the online chat I’ve been waiting 45 mins for someone to say something to me. Is anyone working on customer services today?

  • Robert_Begg Robert Begg (@Robert_Begg) reported

    @mmm14mmm @virginmedia TiVo boxes need network now?! I though they did it all through the coax and it had its own modem!

  • DWozza DWozza84848 (@DWozza) reported

    @virginmedia And now today, your operator has told me there is no issue the other 4 operators are not correct and it was fixed on the 31st of December, yet I’m still having issues and video evidence of this

  • bjsboyce Ben Boyce (@bjsboyce) reported

    @virginmedia No. Just ran another check using that link and still says there is no issue. Have you had other people from area 21 reporting any issues?

  • helwillo61 Helen #NHSLove #NotMyPM (@helwillo61) reported

    @virginmedia So when all those avenues have been explored with no resolution what happens then? I start the same Catch 22 situation again

  • ALongHauler Ed. 🐺💛 #notmyprimeminister. (@ALongHauler) reported

    @DickyDodd @virginmedia I had the same issue with TalkTalk and it was a faulty router.
