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

  • pBullox Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England

    @virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.

  • jim_millen Jim Millen (@jim_millen) reported from Thatcham, England

    Went to @virginmedia online support last night - ran their automated test tool & identified a problem somewhere our end. Offered to request an engineer visit...

  • Johnty14 John Richards (@Johnty14) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia I’m having issues with my broadband starting & stopping every 10 mins or so, packet loss too. I’m in the RG21 area but the website says no known issues!

  • lissaburns Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...

  • i96jms Jane (@i96jms) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia If you forgot your pin your bank would send a replacement through the post. Please arrange for a way to cancel this account that does not cause further distress.

  • Gazimoff Gareth “Gazimoff” Harmer (@Gazimoff) reported from Basingstoke, England

    @virginmedia That’s right. We’d moved house and we’re hoping to keep you with us, but there’s been over a month of delays (issues with current cable). I need it for work, so I’ve been forced to cancel and organise alternatives.

  • Simmba88 Mechelle Penny (@Simmba88) reported from Basingstoke, England

  • SparkleEyedGirl Nicola (@SparkleEyedGirl) reported from Newbury, England

    Twitch is so laggy how do I sue Virgin media for trash signal

  • chrislathamm Chris Latham (@chrislathamm) reported

    @virginmedia absolute joke of a service paying close to £50 a month for service thats never working properly, spent the last 2 hours reseting the box, been a loyal customer for 20 years , cant watch netflix or stream music cos the service is so bad, I going to another company

  • jamesrjwyatt James (@jamesrjwyatt) reported

    @virginmedia evening guys, we have a known problem on broadband in our area but very little info about when it’s likely to be resolved - with 4 of us working from home it’s getting desperate and would welcome more than just ‘there’s a problem in your area’, can you advise please?

  • danielmcgill91 Daniel McGill (@danielmcgill91) reported

    .@virginmedia I've been waiting 6 weeks without service following a house move and have spent hours getting nowhere with customer service. I've had two failed installations because an imaginary 'construction team' has failed to complete work ahead of the engineer's arrival. Help!

  • PSaundersCFC Paul Saunders (@PSaundersCFC) reported

    @virginmedia Complaint form online. Got a letter through the post with a number to text. Got texting someone from your team but they disappeared as soon as I raised my issue. This has gone on far too long now. Surely it can’t be this hard to speak to someone?

  • itskyleflamson Kyle Flamson (@itskyleflamson) reported

    I actually hope #virginmedia gets thousands of lawsuits against them for their failure to provide the promised service(s) of Internet. The contract and terms & conditions do NOT say constant drop outs of Internet connectivity. #fuckvirginmedia @vmbusinesshelp @VirginMediaCorp

  • roropuds Rory Stuart (@roropuds) reported

    @virginmedia Its says I might have service issues - I got a text last month saying December 10th there might be issues, not no internet until December 10th - what is going on?

  • SamiFarooqui Sami F (@SamiFarooqui) reported

    @virginmedia hi, I’m getting increasingly frustrated with the lack of a resolution towards my missing credit cheque. Can you please tell me how much longer I have to wait before I receive my funds? It’s been over 60 days with no sight of my money back at all..

  • MuhammadZain156 ♛ Zainy ♛ (@MuhammadZain156) reported

    @virginmedia hey fix your damn network please. This internet is absolutely horrendous. Constantly goes off the moment I step into my room so keep having to come down right next to the router. Either fix your network or end your damn company.

  • PikeyByName Jon Pike (@PikeyByName) reported

    Typical from @virginmedia, who after 3.5 hours pick up the online help request. The assistant assures me that I "have reached the right person to help with your query" before completely failing to do that.... So without warning passes me to the back of another online queue #fail
