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

  • khawes Kate Hawes (@khawes) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @JessicaOOTC @virginmedia Used to have @virginmedia internet here in Brighton but it was consistently terrible. Far fewer problems with Sky.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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

  • 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👏

  • 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 😤

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

    @kellysharman19 @virginmedia If it’s not sorted today, I’m out. They can stuff their contract and any fees they’d expect me to pay!! It’s just a shame that @SkyUK are quite expensive for the stuff we want and I find they never look after existing customers

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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....

  • 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

  • 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

    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.

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

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

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

    Right @virginmedia it’s Friday! I expect to fully be back up and running by this afternoon as promised numerous times. If not you get someone to my house to sort it this weekend, no more crap promises down the phone! #majorlyfedupnow

  • 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!!

  • neilboyd171171 Neil Boyd (@neilboyd171171) reported

    @virginmedia Was nothing to do with password, but couldn't log in at all until around half an hour ago. Just kept getting a message saying web address was wrong, but it's the same bookmark that I've always used and which allowed me to eventually log in, so no idea what the issue was

  • Michael99496523 Michael l (@Michael99496523) reported

    @TommyAndGina @ElliottHogg1989 @virginmedia As so many people are paying for a service and rely on it, it should be fail safe end of. Now do one

  • Rachy_EJ 🌹RACHAEL💜💙 (@Rachy_EJ) reported

    Is @virginmedia tv still down

  • essenby Barrie Thomas (@essenby) reported

    @virginmedia How do I report a problem (NOT connected with the recent outage) when all your channels (website, app, phone) are down? I know you’re busy, but give me a break, please!
