Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Lancing, England

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

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

    @virginmedia hi I’ve got to say I’m extremely disappointed by your customer service with upgrading my phone I called to upgrade on Monday and everything got though to including credit checks and the reply was sorry we’ve got to do back off checks and I’ve still heard nothing back

  • mel_shad 💀☠Mel Shad ☠💀 (@mel_shad) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @tanyabyrne @virginmedia Exactly this. I completely accept that emergency work cannot be helped and has to be done as soon as required, but scheduled improvement work should be different. It's not okay to just cut people off without notice and then make out it's an outage.

  • pwvoiceovers Patrick Woodward (@pwvoiceovers) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia bb seems to be back now! Hopefully just a glitch. Service status website still down tho. Says 'oops, something's wrong'

  • AshJHow91 Ashley Howard (@AshJHow91) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia hurry up. No matter how many times you play the same song, over and over again. I Ashley will not hang up!

  • peel_acres Mark (@peel_acres) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, it's a known issue and you are working on it but Cricket World Cup Final, British Grand Prix, Wimbledon Men's Singles Final, Tour de France! Aaaargh!

  • MissClarePear Clare Pear (@MissClarePear) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Area 20 worthing problems all the time.

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

    @virginmedia hi guys what’s going on with the tv phone and broadband service in the Bn2 area of Brighton mines all down and not working at all

  • Less_worry More time Less worry (@Less_worry) reported from Worthing, England

    It’s so disappointing that #Loyalty counts for nothing! You only get a good deal if you are a new customer! Thanks @virginmedia for nothing!

  • zimoza90 Tony Woodley (@zimoza90) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia No. No response to the online chat or text. Literally nothing, zero, silence. Call volume is no excuse for over 24hrs of no response from a paid for service provider. #CustomerService

  • dan_garrett1 Dan Garrett (@dan_garrett1) reported from Hove, England

    266 excruciating minutes of my life (nine phone calls!) I will never get back trying to get a complaint response out of @virginmedia A customer of over 20 years treated terribly. Let’s hope @bt_uk are better. #misselling #poorcustomerservice @lutzschuler @libertyglobal @ofcom

  • Genji_bow Leon Valentine (@Genji_bow) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia I’m loosing connection and having issues ie dns issues....I have restarted all of my equipment. Isn’t there preventative actions you can do to stop ddos issues to other customers

  • dan_garrett1 Dan Garrett (@dan_garrett1) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia @MoneyTelegraph Furious right now. 12 different failings by virgin media. Call centre refusal to escalate my complaint. Hung up on twice. No human compassion. Just keep quoting from their script. Completely unacceptable. #poorcustomerservice

  • davmcdngh David McDonagh (@davmcdngh) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia I appreciate your response but I did get through to an agent and the response I got was quite frankly appalling. The only thing that link says is there is a problem with using the app. This is a problem that has now been going on for weeks

  • Mamafish_TW Patricia 💜 (@Mamafish_TW) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia Unfortunately the first member of staff disconnected our call then the second member was fairly rude so I think it’s time for me to move on and get better service and something I can afford, I’ve been trying for the past year to get a better deal but never got more than this.

  • steveleppard stephen leppard (@steveleppard) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia are doing improvements in the area so my tv and broadband are down all day. Nice to be told. Working from home and can’t do a thing now. Wasted day. #Complaint

  • RelentlesssTV ЯTV (@RelentlesssTV) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @rachhgoeslive @virginmedia That's a shame :( & yh i have sams issues. I wanna talk to someone else to lol

  • Mamafish_TW Patricia 💜 (@Mamafish_TW) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia absolutely shocking that as a customer since 2012 out of contract since 2014 decided to tackle the £130+ a month bill only to be told we can knock off £10 but increase your broadband is the only offer you can make to keep me with you. Time to move on

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

    @virginmedia Ordering my phones was a absolute credit to your company gave excellent customer service

  • mel_shad 💀☠Mel Shad ☠💀 (@mel_shad) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia Called customer service line & the message says virgin is doing improvement works in my area. I accept that if its emergency works there is nothing that can be done. The reason I am cross is if you have scheduled improvement work to do, you should tell people about it before!

  • MissClarePear Clare Pear (@MissClarePear) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia I know about that but feel the issues are always happening and i just want to watch tv without having to reboot and check statue all the time. Just feel it's a bad service when I'm paying for full package with you. Thank you for looking into this for me. 😁

  • _Tinty_ Steph Bennett (@_Tinty_) reported

    @MouseLiterate @virginmedia What you told me about this earlier is AWFUL, I can’t believe @virginmedia would treat ANY customer like this, but to treat a NEW customer in this way is just awful! I’d say leave them & join Vodafone broadband, it’s better than Sky & Virgin in my opinion!!

  • 32bitboof bruh (@32bitboof) reported

    @virginmedia the whole service is providing trash speeds for everyone and I think you can see that if you look at the replies to every tweet

  • HarryStani Harry Staniforth (@HarryStani) reported

    @virginmedia Not your fault, but would have arranged a different payment if I was correctly informed. I have told them but still had no confirmation- your system never works despite being assured every time that it would work. Also, 45 days is an incredibly long time to wait for a refund.

  • brooklands911 tony (@brooklands911) reported

    @virginmedia Great and we know what will happen there...why not just have a contact number for the complaints team like any other business and the issue can be solved in 1 simple call ?

  • brooklands911 tony (@brooklands911) reported

    @virginmedia Like talking too a brick wall here , why not just say we don't care a **** ,nothing going too get done and you ducked as you tied into a contract, only company thats you can't talk to the complaints team ,and write too them but won't get a reply

  • 32bitboof bruh (@32bitboof) reported

    @virginmedia yea fix your ****

  • CaponesShadow Ian Brook (@CaponesShadow) reported

    @virginmedia And it's both, it's terrible broadband

  • liquidmynx LiquidMynx (@liquidmynx) reported

    @virginmedia The internet has gone off twice today, and I have had to restart my hub both times. How can I make a complaint please?

  • Boshek6 Boshek (@Boshek6) reported

    @virginmedia Ok managed to fix. Now looking to post. It’ll be Booshka.
