Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Melton Mowbray, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Melton Mowbray and nearby locations:

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Awful service today, WiFi up and down. Always in the middle of important calls!

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia The reboot only works until it goes down again so it doesn’t really ‘work’. Anyway, I spent 40 minutes on the phone yesterday and they’re sending me a new router, hopefully that will sort the problem out. Cheers

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Hi. There’s no fault recorded in the area and I have run diagnostics which came back ok. Third outage today this one has been off for 15 minutes so far. Obviously rebooted hub and PC. This is becoming more frequent

  • breadf2man Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Thurmaston, England

    Broadband has been failing since Sunday, phoned Virgin Media at least 6 times ! Engineer came today said he had fixed it, hour later exactly the same problem. Very poor service and they say I should use broadband less

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia What’s the point they seem unable to help and disconnected the call twice! Absolutely hopeless service

  • lizdixon77 Liz (@lizdixon77) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Have done it both ways. It isn’t just the speed it is dropping out completely for long periods of time and the staff in your call centres are if no help unless you want to buy a new service and you do not get promised calls back.

  • paulwitneyphoto paulwitneyphoto (@paulwitneyphoto) reported from Ruddington, England

    @virginmedia 1hr 50mins on the phone, mostly on hold, spoken to 4 people, 3 of which bairly spoke english and still no further forward, website not helpful either. Worst service I've ever experienced. @Ofcom

  • nghudson Nigel Hudson (@nghudson) reported from West Bridgford, England

    Goodbye @virginmedia 👋🏻 I’d like to say it was fun but you’re over-priced and your customer service is crap.

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia 3rd time today. Can someone help me please?

  • paulwitneyphoto paulwitneyphoto (@paulwitneyphoto) reported from Ruddington, England

    @virginmedia You are clearly having a laugh at our expense. How do we complain about the service by @virginmedia @Ofcom

  • lizdixon77 Liz (@lizdixon77) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia constant problems with broadband over past few weeks, still not up to 500mb speed I should be. Calls to your call centre are pointless and no promised calls back received!

  • paulwitneyphoto paulwitneyphoto (@paulwitneyphoto) reported from Ruddington, England

    @virginmedia Adding my wife's phone to the internet/tv package which should include 1, 5G phone, you need to get your customer service sorted out and people who speak English to a higher standard or better still have English speaker #dissatisfiedcustomer with @virginmedia

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia PC is Ethernet into Superhub3 but laptop is WiFi. It’s broadband going down completely not just WiFi. This has been ongoing for several weeks albeit not this bad. Kind of lived with it until today

  • NimeshDave7 Nimfresh.exe (@NimeshDave7) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia @vmbusiness why does my RTC internet connection disconnect every hour and connect 10 seconds later? It’s been happening for weeks, every hour it will go down for 10 seconds then reconnect??!?!? It’s problematic for my work!

  • faizalmom Faizal Momoniat (@faizalmom) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @virginmedia rang up yesterday for disconnecting phone & broadband very bad attitude from the lady i spoke too from the beginning off the call when i first said hello.

  • Manraj_Virkk Manraj (@Manraj_Virkk) reported from Leicestershire, England

    Why does virgin media wifi become **** after 11:30pm? Absolutely shite man

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Always seems to come back after a router reboot. Maybe you could send me a new one, see if that resolves the issue?

  • MatthewWalne Matthew Walne MCSI (@MatthewWalne) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Forget it. Totally useless all round. Absolutely the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. What’s the point having a social media team?!

  • djstar3d David Johnston (@djstar3d) reported from Melton Mowbray, England

    @virginmedia Come on guys. Can you at least let me watch the MotoGP on BT sport 2? I’m pretty sure I have the rights to watch it since I watched it yesterday no problem

  • paulwitneyphoto paulwitneyphoto (@paulwitneyphoto) reported from Ruddington, England

    @virginmedia No, I don't want to do things by text, I want you to ring us, (an English speaking person not a call centre in Delhi) I am a paying dissatisfied customer!🤬

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • toffeetezza Terry D. (@toffeetezza) reported

    @virginmedia No, none of those are the main issue which is the box just randomly shutting down mid program and rebooting. Have missed vital parts of programs & goals in football matches, so you can see how annoying that is from what is supposed to be state of the art equipment!

  • PemJol PemJol (@PemJol) reported

    @virginmedia Nope the issue apparently is always with my *** which the automated line tells me to restart which I do. Still no joy. Even after a factory reset, which now means not a single smart device can connect to it. Brilliant

  • MattDen82519810 Matt Dennis (@MattDen82519810) reported

    @virginmedia @bt_uk when will full fibre be available in my area? Fed of having daily issues with our fibre provided by @virginmedia not a day goes by where we don’t have issues and then to top it off they want to charge us more for this privilege #cantwaittochange

  • PemJol PemJol (@PemJol) reported

    @virginmedia And spend another 6 hours on hold??? Fantastic business model. Trap them in. Cut service and refuse to interact with them. Like it. We are trapped. Time to cancel the direct debit then I guess. Could they put you Twitter people on the phones maybe?

  • carlyeann #MrsApples (@carlyeann) reported

    @virginmedia Between 12-4pm not ideal when in lockdown two young children and no Tv. Paying for a service we haven’t got!

  • simonwillard12 simon willard (@simonwillard12) reported

    @virginmedia Oh right, an area outage for the past 18 months. I’ve been with virgin for 10+ years it’s not an outage but an issue at my address. Can you get an engineer out like promised? I phoned and was on hold for an hour then the call ended on me.

  • PemJol PemJol (@PemJol) reported

    Here we go again @virginmedia another morning on hold.... can’t wait. Can you play some more cheerful music. Spent 6 hours on hold at the weekend with ‘hold music to kill yourself by’ even tougher on a Monday! @MartinSLewis @hollywills please help lone parents getting ripped off

  • mdpattison Mark Pattison (@mdpattison) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, is there an update on this yet? We’ve bow been without our broadband since Thursday afternoon. Your postcode checker is still saying the service is fine, which is obviously not the case.

  • lauzmarsland laura marsland (@lauzmarsland) reported

    @virginmedia morning, there seems to have been a problem in our area since yesterday any ideas when we will be back online??

  • 1Ryez Ryan (@1Ryez) reported

    @virginmedia I wanted to complain about the price increase, only renewed my contract for another 18 months. Trying to contact you on the phone is nearly impossible to get through. If your services were worth the extra price increase it wouldn’t be a problem .
