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

  • indiointernet Brian Roe (@indiointernet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia, what happened to the Travel Channel on 289? No warnings, no I go, just gone! It was my favorite channel and it's been scrapped of your network. What's going on?

  • HelenMonahan18 Helen Monahan (@HelenMonahan18) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    After another 72 hrs without business @virginmedia you finally sent an engineer thanks for ruining another week of business in a pandemic so after 6 months of terrible customer service and disruption nobody cares

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

    @virginmedia I am bitterly disappointed that you have only been able to provide a broadband service for a week and now there's nothing. My work relies on fast reliable broadband. If this doesn't get fixed this Monday, I'll be seeking another provider.

  • VictoriaNangle Vicky Nangle (@VictoriaNangle) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia After over 3 hours and on my 3rd agent I managed to report it. The call was a scam, saying that my wifi was too slow and trying to get to my laptop. When I twigged and refused they became abusive and threatened physical abuse.

  • DrSTun STun (@DrSTun) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia please help. Saying the password to login to my WiFi is incorrect. But it's not. Please help.

  • NicholaHarcourt Niki hardcore (@NicholaHarcourt) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia absolutely disgusted with the service

  • RGNJonathan Jonathan O'Keeffe (@RGNJonathan) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Don’t have an Ethernet cables. My phone actually uses 5G if signal is weak so it was likely my data not WiFi

  • Bradley16535324 BradleyGeorge2001 (@Bradley16535324) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia RIGHT SERIOUSLY YOU NEED TO SORT OUT YOU INTERNET THAT YOUR PROVIDING BECAUSE IT IS AN ABSOLUTE EMBARRASSMENT, it is a waste of money paying for this appalling service we are receiving you don’t Evan deserve a half star review. SORT IT OUT AND SORT IT OUT NOW!!!!

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

    @virginmedia We are happy, now that we're back online, but it was thanks to the two charming and communicative engineers working away in Burgess Hill that saved the day; not just because they'd fixed the issue, but they'd also told me what was going on.

  • VictoriaNangle Vicky Nangle (@VictoriaNangle) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to message with your help section for 3 hours now - had 2 agents introduce themselves then disappear. All I want to do is let them know the details of someone pretending to be Virgin who tried to scam me then threatened me this morning. Not good.

  • RGNJonathan Jonathan O'Keeffe (@RGNJonathan) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia How could it be a connection issue? It is fibre optic WiFi? Also the internet has been horrid the last couple of months just haven’t had time to call both my partner and I are front line so never off in the week

  • TwistieTalk Steve Twist (@TwistieTalk) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia What's the best time to contact your Customer Service team?

  • richardscovell 🏳️‍🌈 #SociallyDistancingRick 🏳️‍🌈 (@richardscovell) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    Just experienced #unethical behaviour from @virginmedia #coercing a customer, accept £20 and close a complaint or you can take it further and not accept the £20. Failure to be transparent and communicate effectively across all departments about charges #poorcustomerservice

  • jettypaul71 Jeff Webber (@jettypaul71) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia I have no TV but you are not taking calls so how can I sort issue - looks like you changed/cancelled my account!!??

  • DeccanTiffin PriyaBTN (@DeccanTiffin) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia Is this some kind of joke? Just called this number and got an auto reply saying voice calls are not supported on this number. The WiFi service is awful today by the way.

  • 5waysRichard Richard Williams (@5waysRichard) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia It was a call and it wasn’t easy to hear what they were saying. Something about having detected that my internet was slow when doing online banking. It sounded very much like the “We are from BT open reach” scam so I said I would call them back.

  • 5waysRichard Richard Williams (@5waysRichard) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia hi, an engineer called out of the blue and claimed to be from Virgin Media working on my broadband. How can I tell if it’s not a scam? And if it’s not, how do I reach him? He gave the general customer service number

  • JumpstartUK JUMPSTART (@JumpstartUK) reported from Sompting, England

    9am on Thursday morning. Day one of second lockdown. Virgin Media is down. #virginmedia @virginmedia get it sorted. I’m in Worthing.

  • flowersxxx Tracy S (@flowersxxx) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia no internet I'm in the bn3 area any help please.?

  • CarolePaton Carole Paton (@CarolePaton) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I eventually got a human to speak to after a very dodgy response to my tweets asking for all my bank details. Issue sorted.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • davenash77 Dave Nash (@davenash77) reported

    @virginmedia I registered it. What constitutes a total loss of service by @Ofcom? As there may have been periods of 10-20 minutes where it came back online on a couple of days.

  • David_N_Johnson DJ (@David_N_Johnson) reported

    Been “chatting” online & WhatsApp to @virginmedia for over 2 hours now to sign up contract renewal, very painful with 2 “advisors”, 1st one not really having a clue. What does it take to actually speak to someone on the phone in the UK that can help?

  • andrewmdodds SinKing! (@andrewmdodds) reported

    @virginmedia customer service terrible

  • GGlobio gareth globio (@GGlobio) reported

    @virginmedia why is my internet not working? i oay a lot of money for your service but your service is crap

  • davenash77 Dave Nash (@davenash77) reported

    @virginmedia So 10 minutes service in any 24 hour period wouldn’t constitute a total loss? Can you stop excluding @Ofcom in your replies as well please? I’d like their clarification on this.

  • ecce_ilva ilva (@ecce_ilva) reported

    @virginmedia I am ending my service and returning my kit on the 7th and my DD is on the 12th. Why in the world would I pay for anything beyond those additional 5 days, especially for a service I will be physically unable to use? It's absolutely bonkers 2/2

  • London_Haze1 G (@London_Haze1) reported

    You do realise you are currently offering customers a Sky Sports deal with the option to upgrade to HD at extra costs, and none of your Sky Sports channels are in HD. I'm a new customer to your TV service and already I can't wait for my contract to end @virginmedia

  • ecce_ilva ilva (@ecce_ilva) reported

    @virginmedia Furthermore, as I gave you 30-day notice, the fact that you bill a month in advance should mean that you can produce my final bill at that time, rather than, again, charging me for a service I cannot and will not use.

  • mrcj300460 Chris J (@mrcj300460) reported

    @virginmedia Once again you have failed, gave us a date of 1/8 turned up today, assuming nothing done as told now 17/8, chap did use Ring, smoking away, banging on door & window scaring my 94 year old mother, once again told a manger will call never do, now time to sue you, #incompetent

  • V1per Rick (@V1per) reported

    @virginmedia I need to revisit an issue I tried to sort a while ago. I need to access a .blueyonder.co.uk account I had years ago but it seems to have been wiped from your systems. Can we please try again to sort?
