Latest outage, problems and issue reports in London Colney and nearby locations:

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia No coherent reason for 17 days of unusable broadband. Yesterday was told there was an SNR issue, today I was told everything is resolved but my awful bandwidth still shows otherwise. I'm now on a 3 day bandwidth check, which is at least different, possibly progress possibly not.

  • Pensar_Mark Mark Williams (@Pensar_Mark) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @virginmedia Already done that 4 times and got nowhere. I need someone who can help to actually call back as promised.

  • Dante_Banks Danté Banks (@Dante_Banks) reported from Tottenham, England

    @Simon_Shell @virginmedia And you won't. They are, without doubt, the worst company/customer service in existence.

  • craigr98_2016 Craig R 🇹🇩🌹 (@craigr98_2016) reported from London Colney, England

    @virginmedia I’m on a sim only deal with you recently taken it out, but looks like I have under estimated how much data I need is it possible to switch to a higher data plan? And then if not needed move back down?

  • Morvaridp Morvarid (@Morvaridp) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia We signed a new contract and we were meant to have internet connection by Monday/Tuesday. We still don’t! We called then on Wednesday and they said they call back. They never did. We called yesterday. They said they’ll look into it. Nothing yet!!

  • Besawyer Besawyer (@Besawyer) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia are you actually kidding?? Service down for #LineofDutyFinale (and not going to be fixed until the 5th May)

  • Besawyer Besawyer (@Besawyer) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia you have less than 20 minutes it get the service back up and running or it’s contract cancel time #LineOfDuty

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia I've already spoken to them many times including tonight and they can't do anything other than tell me that the date has moved yet again. Nobody seems to be able or willing to fix your broken status system.

  • hiaw61 Robert Frame (@hiaw61) reported from Hatfield, England

    @virginmedia absolute rubbish tried calling a get cut off raised a complaint and can’t even speak to some one £100 per month for crap service

  • derekcburgess DEREK BURGESS (@derekcburgess) reported from Walthamstow, England

    ******* typical. Self isolating & my @virginmedia Internet & TV have gone down due to some issue in the area. Had just started working my way through season 8 of #SilentWitness.

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    This was day *15* of working from home with no broadband thanks to @virginmedia and no reliable information about fixing the outage, no provision of an alternative connection (e.g. 4G dongle) and many hours wasted on hold. No wonder they are worst-rated by @WhichUK - avoid! 🤬

  • jim_dawes James Dawes (@jim_dawes) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia no broadband, WiFi or TV services in the SE7 area until 5pm today is completely unacceptable for people working from home. Engineering faults should not be happening during the day. £8 compensation is absolute peanuts. Very poor indeed.

  • hiaw61 Robert Frame (@hiaw61) reported from Hatfield, England

    @virginmedia I have been complaint for the last 12 months and once again no action is it really that difficult to ask an engineer to fix your defective product beyond belief

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Your various automated customer service systems are a horrible mess, they flat out contradict each other! It's shamefully bad & has been so for a long time so this can't be news to you. Why have @virginmedia STILL not done anything about these basic customer experience problems?

  • Morvaridp Morvarid (@Morvaridp) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia will someone actually be able to help us or will we get the same service we’ve been getting from various people we’ve been talking to? I don’t know how else to escalate this anymore!!! It’s taken so much of our time and added stress ...

  • Besawyer Besawyer (@Besawyer) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia Considering I’ve experienced multiple internet and TV issues over the last few weeks (whilst trying to work from home) it would be appreciated to see some compensation on next months bill

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Your service status online tells me everything is fine, even when I run a test, while tech support can only tell me that there IS a fault and the estimated repair date has been shifted yet again, this time to April 21st. SMS updates are useless too. It's absolutely infuriating.

  • Besawyer Besawyer (@Besawyer) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia Provide a more reliable service and a time machine

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Surely you must agree that your service status is useless if there's a fault for 15 days but doesn't once give me a correct status? Why is the status tool broken and why is it not being fixed?

  • Pensar_Mark Mark Williams (@Pensar_Mark) reported from Berkhamsted, England

    @virginmedia Still no reply from @virginmedia over 8 hours after they promised they would call. Was told I would be called back at 12:00. It’s now 20:15. They seem to be oblivious to the very notion of customer service. #completefail

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness Are you that crap that after a year you can’t tell from the plate, you don’t know I left you, used mediation to do so and got compensation in the process ?

  • CarinoCarys Carys (@CarinoCarys) reported

    Hi @virginmedia could someone DM about a billing issue? Been on your chat function for over an hour and keeps disconnecting!

  • RoyaleNails RoyaleNails (@RoyaleNails) reported

    @virginmedia hi I’d like to cancel my contract today. Your number isn’t picking customer calls

  • JKitch90 Kitch the Teacher (@JKitch90) reported

    @virginmedia Absolute shambles. I have phoned 4 times now. Waited for almost an hour every time and then been hung up on every time. Will Virgin pay for my increased phone bill due to this complete joke of a service? Even the online chat doesn't answer after 3 hours of waiting. FUMING!

  • eoinmcgrath7 Eoin McGrath (@eoinmcgrath7) reported

    @virginmedia I've been on hold (still am) for an hour to get my broadband service reconnected but got through to the sales team in minutes. #wrongpriorities #terriblecustomerservice

  • Sami_Pee Samantha Patterson (@Sami_Pee) reported

    Imagine a world where you can actually get through to somebody from @virginmedia BEFORE your contract costs go up 🤭 I swear they have the worst customer services! I’ve been trying to contact them on and off for weeks now my bill has gone up 50% and the only offers online are $$$

  • sarwarah ♡❤ サラ Bee ❤♡ (@sarwarah) reported

    @callummarkie @virginmedia Thats so mad, we can't get @virginmedia down here, but after that I probably wouldn't even think of them . Is worth trying to cancel what you haven't got and try someone else?

  • IamMrSilk IG: IamMrSilk 🇬🇾 🇬🇧 (@IamMrSilk) reported

    How do you have a network where your employees at your customer service seem to put you on hold and then the call drops @virginmedia !?? How can you say you have the best network and your employees can't even finish a customer service call.

  • SophieLittlefa3 Sophie Littlefair (@SophieLittlefa3) reported

    @virginmedia I have rang and rang to cancel my virgin media with you and set a cancellation date. The calls are well over two hours each and every time I’m told “I will transfer you to the disconnection service” I sit and wait over an hour for them to hang up. Disgusting sort it!

  • IamMrSilk IG: IamMrSilk 🇬🇾 🇬🇧 (@IamMrSilk) reported

    The incompetence level is unbelievable @virginmedia it's taking 8 different customer service people and I'm still not able to change my Broadband contract @Ofcom is this something that is acceptable??
