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

  • CharlesB2T Charles Brittain (@CharlesB2T) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia I only found this out by talking to the engineers working at getting us all attached again, down our road, but if we don't know this, it looks as though it is your equipment which is at fault. To be fully kept up to speed with real info, will stop nightmare thoughts from growing.

  • Mick1082 Mike smith (@Mick1082) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia I have no tv service what’s going on this is 3 nights running now that the picture has all broken up and suddenly it won’t even load the channels I’m paying £130 for this it’s not good enough

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia @CarolynBaghurst Still same outage in the same town but the outage page shows outage but time for fix keeps moving

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @Ben76593214 @virginmedia Where are you getting these “rumours” or are you making it up? Granted Virgin are unhelpful in communicating & keep moving the resolution time (but not until it’s almost reached)

  • biconic__ Alex 💫 (@biconic__) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia We’ve spent probably the best part of a full day on the phone to your ‘customer service’ staff over the last month. Appalling service.

  • josie_milligan josie🗽 (@josie_milligan) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia fix has been pushed back to tomorrow now. Can't get through to a human on your phone number. Utter joke especially when so many have to work from home at the moment like my partner. 🤬

  • SteveAfterlight Steve Love (@SteveAfterlight) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia We tried valiantly. After being let down again on the basics of simply getting us our equipment and getting us online we did eventually manage to speak to someone. Thankfully we managed to cancel and go back to Sky and never need to deal with Virgin Media ever again!

  • Mick1082 Mike smith (@Mick1082) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Eventually yes but had to go though the sales team first I get with the COVID situation it’s more tricky than normal but the 150 line though is appalling to be cut off after waiting spending nearly two hours is really poor service guys the people I did speak to were very helpful

  • CharlesB2T Charles Brittain (@CharlesB2T) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia A problem, which I'd like you to address, is that we don't know what the problem is. Last time this happened in October it turned out that the waterworks people had dug through 15 cables and it all had to be reattached.

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia Looked for a moment like it was back, both the TiVo and router self restarted - is this meant to happen as part of work that may be being done?, unfortunately hasn’t resulted in restoration of service. Confirmed on service page it’s still an outage in the area

  • SiCornwell Simon (@SiCornwell) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    Out of contract with @virginmedia so looking at deals New customer: 213Mbps, 200+ channels inc Sky Cinema, new STB, plus a 49” LG TV, all for £57pm Existing customer: upgrade 108 to 213Mbps, add Sky Cinema to package, no other extras, £120pm Why do companies do this?!

  • biconic__ Alex 💫 (@biconic__) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @conniebliff @virginmedia Virgin media have been ******* us around for over a month and left us with no internet, truly the worst customer experience I have ever had for anything by a long way

  • bobthe_dolphin Bob the 🐬 (@bobthe_dolphin) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia I can't even login to my account...

  • PeterNooneComms Peter Noone 🇪🇺🇮🇪 (@PeterNooneComms) reported from Worthing, England

    Paid @virginmedia £25.95 to watch #JoshuaPulev and the picture is unwatchable. Engineer fix estimate of 11.20pm for an event that starts at 10pm is no use to anyone. #Iwantmymoneyback

  • josie_milligan josie🗽 (@josie_milligan) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia our TV and Internet have been out since 12, fix been pushed back twice to tomorrow now. No good enough for 100 quid a month.

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @AFCGoonerPaul @DawesNina @virginmedia Don’t get excited, my kit rebooted about an hour ago by itself then went back into not working straight away

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @dazzleeds @virginmedia That’s because the router will auto connect without password to show you a diagnostics page to let you self test for issues (no good here as it’s on VM side) once service is back the router will resume normal security mode

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia are you able to check on a fault by location for me. I don’t have access to the VM account but the last I heard was it should of been resolved by 10am today and it’s still down, account holder won’t be available for hours to check

  • bobthe_dolphin Bob the 🐬 (@bobthe_dolphin) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Hi, can you elaborate on why Brighton fibre was so horrifically terrible today? In 8 hours I got 3 hours work done....

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia Are you able to advise IF this is going to be fixed, yesterday you said by 10am today. Then 2pm,6pm & now 10am tomorrow - could live with the loss of either service but it’s really impacting not having either!

    @virginmedia hi is there currently any ongoing issues with virgin mobile data/network. I can make calls but no internet connection even though it shows full bars and 4G sign. Been like this since 4th January evening time and both sims on my account there’s no internet connection.

  • LewHem Lew H (@LewHem) reported

    @virginmedia The fact that youre clearly AOL in disguise. I can grow a beard before I can load a web page. It's been slow for weeks. Netflix buffers FFS. It's every device too. And yes, I've restarted it properly. H E L P.

  • Thetinnitusman Mike Dutton (@Thetinnitusman) reported

    @virginmedia worst customer service ever when it comes to payments, complaint submitted and no action taken against incompetent staff @NatWest_Help they are blaming this on you

  • David_PWS David S (@David_PWS) reported

    @virginmedia I have raised a complaint as my 1gig broadband used to give me 150-300mbps on WiFi depending on my location in the house & now only getting 27mbps. Noticeable drop in Service over a year since installing, please help!!

  • sfc_rich Sfc_Rich (@sfc_rich) reported

    @Rockeythecat1 @virginmedia I was promised one as part of a retainer deal after I said I was leaving, signed me up then refused to give me a Hub5, despite it being on their system as of what I was promised, worst company ever #customeridontcare so many lies
