Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Loughborough, England

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

  • juanfelipe1 John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm having the same issue. For the period of lockdown I could broadly rely on the signal to my home office. The last 2/3 months I haven't and I am constantly having to tether my mobile at my expense. The router hasn't moved and neither has my office. The service has just worsened

  • Ebike_holidays National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia We followed instructions to switch phones to fibre optic. Can dial out but can’t get calls. It’s really upset my mother in law as she is vulnerable and we are her emergency support. Our mobile signal is very poor at home, so she is frightened she can’t contact us.

  • ASJPhotography Alexandra Johnson (@ASJPhotography) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia One of your tech engineers confirmed the problem in our local area and following a conversation with customer service they kept trying to get me to create multiple networks for speed. This wasn’t the problem, the problem was amplifiers in the local area!!

  • HarjitDosanjh8 High End Chauffeurs of leicester (@HarjitDosanjh8) reported from Thurnby, England

    @virginmedia So whilst on the phone you put us through to get a dongle as an emergency and you tried to charge us £39! Wow the cheek of it!

  • ASJPhotography Alexandra Johnson (@ASJPhotography) reported from Coalville, England

    @virginmedia have to be the MOST unhelpful when it comes to customer service. I’ve been going round and round and round for an issue your technical engineer has already highlighted!!!!

  • HarjitDosanjh8 High End Chauffeurs of leicester (@HarjitDosanjh8) reported from Thurnby, England

    @virginmedia @O2 @peterkay_co_uk I think your service is a laughing show. Years and nothing ever fixed finally time to move on.

  • iamthemummy julie marlow (@iamthemummy) reported from Ibstock, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp Refund me 6 weeks line rental for a start ... issue adapters to all house holds on the land line system before you change to hub, so customers are not left unable to make or receive calls.

  • HarjitDosanjh8 High End Chauffeurs of leicester (@HarjitDosanjh8) reported from Thurnby, England

    @virginmedia 5 days no internet, promises of 24 hours it will be running, then told a little maintenance, yesterday at 9:30am we were told in 9 hours you will get a call guaranteed (didn’t happen). All day today no work has got done! Poor internet for years and now none!! WTH!!

  • juanfelipe1 John Wright (@juanfelipe1) reported from Leicestershire, England

    @simonnread @virginmedia I'm looking at the new Sky Stream service that starts on 18th October combined with Three 5G broadband. Both offer rolling 1 month contracts

  • roberto85 Rob Parker (@roberto85) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia it took my nearly 3 hours to cancel my contract after 7 years with you. Your customer service representative made up a fake outstanding bill from 2016 as an excuse not to help me. All sorted now but never going to be a #virginmediacustomer again.

  • Ebike_holidays National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia It’s even more stressful as we can’t tell her when you will resolve the problem. Extremely poor service.

  • Ebike_holidays National Forest E-Bike Holidays (@Ebike_holidays) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia Everyone is very apologetic but that doesn’t help give a vulnerable old lady the peace of mind that her son is available at the other end of the phone, should something happen.

  • Dr_Stav Dr Alex Stavrinides (@Dr_Stav) reported from West Bridgford, England

    Customer Services via @WhatsApp is just appalling. Looking at you @virginmedia. Feels like I've wasted hours trying to sort out a contract, one bot message at a time.

  • DirtyLyle Matthew Theobald (@DirtyLyle) reported from Clifton, England

    @virginmedia Still bad this evening. Pixelating all over the screen.

  • robhollanduk Rob Holland ⚽️ ☮️ (@robhollanduk) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @Walpie27 By being an O2/Virgin Media customer. Statement yesterday said lots of tickets held back for general sale, but after the O2 Priority app & website crashed I’m not holding hope of getting tickets. In the past I’d have queued at the arena but the box office isn’t opening tomorrow

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

    @virginmedia why does my wifi keep cutting out every 15 mins for about 2 mins then come back? Not great when I work from home and my meetings cut out midway through…

  • Jdd535 John D (@Jdd535) reported from Stapleford, England

    Virgin media must b the worst 4 customer service.. change ur engineer appointment without even discussing it!!! #virginmedia #theworstcustomerservice

  • iamj_armstrong James Armstrong (@iamj_armstrong) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia are there any outages in the NG9 area or has my broadband broken for the second time this month?

  • HarjitDosanjh8 High End Chauffeurs of leicester (@HarjitDosanjh8) reported from Thurnby, England

    @virginmedia currently on the phone and surprise surprise sir give us another 24 hours!! Are you mad! I’m pulling my hair out!!! I’ve never tweeted before but my guess is it’s the only way they’ll pull there finger out!!!

  • iamj_armstrong James Armstrong (@iamj_armstrong) reported from Beeston, England

    @virginmedia There isn’t an outage. I have been told it may be a line fault but the hub was fine yesterday afternoon

  • MinaMo_212 MinaMo (@MinaMo_212) reported

    @virginmedia I just don't think I want to repeat myself for a 4th time. I'd like to know if a UK based customer service department can contact me or not?

  • radostdineva88 Radost Dineva (@radostdineva88) reported

    @virginmedia I rebooted it a few times, it is not working. I believe that there is a problem around my area, I checked with my postcode and it says that there is an issue and it should be fixed by 12 pm today. Many thanks,

  • K_Mrozinski Miss M (@K_Mrozinski) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, service checker confirmed an issue but doesn’t advise when it’ll be fixed. Two days of this seems excessive !

  • Yas_Mahtab Yas (@Yas_Mahtab) reported

    @virginmedia That’s the issue, I’m always speaking to offshore customer service representatives and their service is shocking! I’ll call again today

  • GiorgioAquila Giorgio Aquila (@GiorgioAquila) reported

    @virginmedia The service is back online but I am still experiencing my connection be very slow from time to time. Is it something linked to the servers, to the router or something else?

  • MTLalley MTL (@MTLalley) reported

    @virginmedia ...so for the past year I have not been able to log in, this meant I could not use the TV anywhere as I cannot log in. When I have called, they have not been able to sort, I have had an Indian call centre rep who was very hard to understand and just didn't get the issue...

  • SmicersRight T (@SmicersRight) reported

    @virginmedia @kiwi_cupcake89 Virgin, It is 5th June now and I am having the exact same issue. App won't let me create an account as won't accept any password- your IT team have not fixed the problem and from searching Twitter this is a common problem!

  • randomrouleur Campbell Goodwille (@randomrouleur) reported

    @vmbusiness Your contact form is not working (even on Firefox, as suggested) - how do we get in touch with you?

  • tonight_frying Frying Tonight 💙 (@tonight_frying) reported

    @danblythewriter @virginmedia It's almost as if the system is a bit crap or something.🤔

  • poeticjustice92 Adam✌️ (@poeticjustice92) reported

    @virginmedia Annnnnnd now is the first drop in connection of the day! AB, I’ll let you know of every one of them, your site apparently says there are no issues in the area!!! Great service, would highly NOT recommend.
