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

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    Received my @virginmedia bill which should have been amended and credited with compensation for my lack of service in August, to find I’ve been credited a measly £5!!! And that’s a month late! Absolute joke of a company and the worst customer service ever.

  • JMOC89 James Crouch (@JMOC89) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia still no update on my complaint or speed changes 2 months of no delivery and over a month no reply. Let's see how long I sit on hold today!!

  • Louisblack Louis Houghton (@Louisblack) reported from Hove, England

    Ugh, I really need to get off my arse and swap internet from @virginmedia to someone else. £50 a month is pretty damn ridiculous.

  • Slater1Jess Jess Slater (@Slater1Jess) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed at the terrible service myself and my mother received recently #poor #rude #virginmedia

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @McGiff @virginmedia OMG they are the worst! We had no service for a week last month 😤

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

    @leylatov @NadsShad @virginmedia The service really is very poor. I would definitely think twice if I were you. It's like it doesn't matter that we can't work etc Nobody calls you back and there us never a swift resolution. I'm so fed up today I could cry!

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

    @leylatov @virginmedia Honestly this is pretty standard. As you are in the same area, you could even start out with this 'intermittent untraceable local fault' and have no service too! As far as I can tell, they are so big, they don't care about individual customers or holding onto their custom.

  • IAmKaneHuxley Kane Huxley (@IAmKaneHuxley) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia terrible, unproffesional service! Spoke to 3 different people nobody dealing with our request. Wifi delayed by 2 weeks, refused to be passed to manager TWICE & lied too then to be told we have no order! No sense of professionalism/customer service. Never use them!

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

    @virginmedia @NadsShad 1) you didn't notify customers that there were intermittent problems 2) your customer service line operative was very unconcerned about it when we called 3) we are home workers and need dependable services 4) yours are not dependable and nobody who works for you seems to care!

  • JMOC89 James Crouch (@JMOC89) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia They found nothing and hung up on me. I don't think my opinion of a company has ever been changed so much as you guys have over the last few months. Submitted another complaint as I have to work to pay for your awful service

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @Fatboypops @virginmedia Mum and dad had problems with them too! Sky are by far the best just as shame they never look after existing customers which is why we left x

  • JMOC89 James Crouch (@JMOC89) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia I haven't first time for that as its hard for me to find the time to sit in hold for an hour to get to anyone. I sent another complaint through your service and have the conf. Maybe this time I will actually get the call instead of expecting to waste more of my time

  • joesuxx joe🍑 (@joesuxx) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    Trying to cancel my @virginmedia and the guy on the phone is driving rhe hardest sale and its making me so uncomfortable 👏you👏are👏doing👏the👏opposite👏of👏customer👏retention👏

  • RobertClayo1984 Robert (@RobertClayo1984) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Apparently there is no notes which is a load of crap she was more interested in getting payment off me!! It’s be had no service for 5 weeks

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    Yet more problems @virginmedia had 3 weeks of good service before going tits up again. Oh and I got a full bill when I was due compensation for and I had to ring up and rectify. You really are a crappy company

  • pigletspantry1 Piglets Pantry HQ (@pigletspantry1) reported from Littlehampton, England

    @virginmedia Did you read the last tweet. Every day for 6 days sometimes up to 5 times. You hang up and give false advice hence resorting to tweeting!

  • JMOC89 James Crouch (@JMOC89) reported from Hove, England

    Imagine my second @virginmedia complaint almost 4 weeks without a response also. Its almost like they don't want to deal with it

  • Keith_Hall Keith Hall (@Keith_Hall) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    Dear @virginmedia - after 75 minutes on hold, I had to hang up. Happy to sign that new contract with you however if you want to call me back....

  • clairewoods93 Claire Lock (@clairewoods93) reported from Worthing, England

    @virginmedia Your problems in my area are consistent. Down again this eve and I’m seriously considering just not paying you. I only get service some of the time so I’ll only pay you some of the time. You don’t know how lucky you are to provide bt sport. Only reason I’m hanging on 😤

  • pigletspantry1 Piglets Pantry HQ (@pigletspantry1) reported from Littlehampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes tried to speak to technical not available or hang up.

  • david_renfree David Renfree (@david_renfree) reported

    @virginmedia On hold for about 20m & spoke to a helpful agent who said she couldn't cancel any of my services (I was upgrading also) she would put me through to another team. I then queued for another 20m, the call answered & then silence. After 5 more mins they cut me off! Help

  • Jonlws01 John lawless (@Jonlws01) reported

    @virginmedia Please take this message as official notice that I wish to cancel my tv service. Now please reply with an acceptance message so I can screenshot it and cancel my direct debit. Thanks in advance you've been most helpful

  • Mas_A94 Mas (@Mas_A94) reported

    @virginmedia how are you supposed to call customer service? Been looking for about half an hour now to talk about slow connection and about wifi booster. I want the number not Tweet solutions. Everytime I try call it cuts me off? Is that even the correct number on website?

  • Colin92852325 Colin (@Colin92852325) reported

    @virginmedia I have been trying to contact customer services on 150 & 0345 454 1111 but the line will not connect. Trying to place an order but will not let me do it online

  • badassscotsman ochaye😜 (@badassscotsman) reported

    @andycampbell87 @virginmedia I just did it told Ofcom of the vast problems I was having since January last year. Engineers promised never sent nothing was getting fixed they breached there contract. So enough was enough. Was paying anymore for a service I was definitely not getting.

  • alrightPET Dr Heather Williams MBE (@alrightPET) reported

    @virginmedia Which number should I call on to speak to someone to explain the issue (not go through an automated menu of troubleshooting advice)?
