Latest outage, problems and issue reports in New Romney and nearby locations:

  • HiDee_Lo Dennis C Chansa ( Dee-Lo) (@HiDee_Lo) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia is this the kind of bad service we now have to pay for? Charging us fibre prices but getting slow speed, can’t call the contact centre. Internet as slow as a sloth in TN233JA area This is very bad service

  • Pakitodomenech Francisco Domenech 🇵🇸 (@Pakitodomenech) reported from Seabrook, England

    @virginmedia why are you service do crap??

  • TheTestingMuse David Williams (@TheTestingMuse) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Having just looked at model photos it's the Hub 4 I have, set to Modem Mode. The connection drop problem is with the Hub itself (the solid white ring light then starts glowing to show it is "connecting"), so the connection drop affects both wired and wireless connections.

  • DrPEDavies Dr Patrick Davies (@DrPEDavies) reported from Folkestone, England

    Virgin Media Customer Care Complaints Services always fails to come up with solutions. Rather, they continually offer verbose replies referring Customers elsewhere with endless phone numbers. Their standard is totally below the expected minimum!

  • Pakitodomenech Francisco Domenech 🇵🇸 (@Pakitodomenech) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia Watching the England game and the internet just stopped. What it’s going on lately with your service??

  • Pakitodomenech Francisco Domenech 🇵🇸 (@Pakitodomenech) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia you service is just below zero. Can’t get any connection. Just please give my money back and I move to something better. Thanks

  • shipp_natalie Natalie Shipp (@shipp_natalie) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia none of the apps are working on my tv, can you advise how I can fix this please?

  • Bsid19451955 Bsid (@Bsid19451955) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia just when you really need Internet none! And fix time 16:00 today.

  • ElaneSlade elane slade (@ElaneSlade) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia can anyone in the UK retentions department actually listen to a call and call a customer back? I've tried calling this morning to check progress after more than 2 weeks and the people answering the phone can't understand what I'm asking I've been hung up on 3 times

  • chinwah33 Braxton hix (@chinwah33) reported from Ashford, England

    Well laters #virginmedia I will be off to sky when the contracts up next month. Terrible service, no TV again today and yet you still call me everyday to get me to take out another contract.

  • Andyelufc AndyEpps (@Andyelufc) reported from Ashford, England

    with @virginmedia tv stations being down for most of the day apparently , I'm just glad that @LUFC are not on the box tonight.🤬⚽💛💙 #wouldnotbehappy

  • _drewitt Lauren Drewitt (@_drewitt) reported from Smeeth, England

    @virginmedia and after a previous phone call a few weeks ago where your adviser said we could write a letter of complaint, we have still received no response in writing as requested and today been told it’s not your policy to reply? Terrible service!

  • _drewitt Lauren Drewitt (@_drewitt) reported from Smeeth, England

    @virginmedia another poor lengthy phone call with one of your customer service advisers following being mis-sold your services. Refusal to listen to our original telephone calls where we were mis-sold the service and refusal to accept any responsibility.

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia So your code of practice section 3. Your case will remain open for 28 days so you'll have enough time to review and consider our proposal. Erm you've closed it after 2 days. Your service gets better

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia No. I received an email stating I didn't need to sign a new contract and it was classed as a service change.

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported from Folkestone, England

    @virginmedia Your email re complaint makes now sense. You've closed it but not said how it has been resolved? C-1703211599 Please advise

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Yes have posted in forums - no response, called, live chats, SMS. full works. Engineers even told us prob is not at our property as far back as Oct/Nov and neighbours have same issue but nothing is done, call centre staff are rude and treat you with contempt. Ref is C0912202465

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Would rather you fixed the problem.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia December. Official complaint prior to that. Please read back through your thread, the broken promises and the lies then come back with a proposal to resolve.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Just wondered if I’ve waited long enough yet for anyone @virginmedia to care enough to respond to me? Still no forum response. Still not complaint response. Still line issues. Just lies from your SM team.

  • moodykels Kelsey✨ (@moodykels) reported

    @virginmedia Hi my Virgin Media Broadband has been down all day and all I get is check back in 24h on the website?! Not any information ?

  • morse64 ian Morson (@morse64) reported

    @virginmedia what an absolute joke... cant access online due to this new Virgin media / O2 login. I do not have access to the email account and rang customer services to change it. Still no joy

  • rockorstone rockorstone (@rockorstone) reported

    Is anyone else having problems with virgin media this year, so poor and it has gone down again estimated fix 6 aug!!!! #virginmedia

  • scaramanga3ball Real Reptilian💙 (@scaramanga3ball) reported

    @virginmedia What's happening virgin media? Can't gain access to my account because you've decided to make me link it to an O2 id account, I'm not at O2 customer. What is the point of offering a service which clearly doesn't work.

  • Sherl06303 David Holmes (@Sherl06303) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t think I have the time and dedication needed to be a Virgin Media customer any more. Sky beckons.

  • womaninblue1050 Marilyn (@womaninblue1050) reported

    @AlisonLMercer @O2 @virginmedia Yes there are loads affected. There’s a Facebook group specifically for problems with Virgin and this problem is highlighted significantly.

  • womaninblue1050 Marilyn (@womaninblue1050) reported

    @virginmedia @chaitu99 Unbelievable that it’s taking so long. The trouble shooting step in your link is saying to register for a Virgin Media account but we already have an account.

  • mjaanensen mjaanensen (@mjaanensen) reported

    @virginmedia please can someone contact me. I no longer have access to the e-mail address associated with my account, therefore cannot login to my virgin media and cannot change the e-mail address associated. Help! Also your internet is awful at the moment but can't run any tests

  • Christo24382100 Christopher Aveyard (@Christo24382100) reported

    @virginmedia Believe it or not, still no change. It says that the email linked to my account is [object OBJECT] so I can’t link it to my virgin media 02. I’ve told god knows how many advisors this and no one is helping. I’m getting tempted to cancel and go back to sky

  • Christo24382100 Christopher Aveyard (@Christo24382100) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been with Virgin Media for two weeks and haven’t been able to log into my account, I’ve spoken to so many advisors who tell me to wait anywhere between 24-72 hours and try again. Terrible costumer service so far, no one seems to have a clue what they’re doing.
