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

  • szymon__j Szymon (@szymon__j) reported from Balderton, England

    @virginmedia It’s an issue with the broadband, kept getting passed back and forth between departments until eventually one of the colleagues dropped the call. I managed to get a manager on the phone in the end but it took way too long for what the problem actually was.

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia broadband seems to be down in NG4, Nottingham.

  • szymon__j Szymon (@szymon__j) reported from Balderton, England

    @virginmedia After speaking to numerous of your Tech representatives, it appears that none of them know what they’re doing :) I am sorry to say but the customer service is poor.

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Hi, as mentioned I have already tried these steps and I still do not have any internet access. Everything was ok until there appeared to be work being done on the box on our street last night. Been v poor and now not working ever since.

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia The only solution you provide is to miss precisely what I pay you for, so you can get it fixed in time for me to watch in the main, what I don’t want to watch. You have no solutions beyond telling your customers to suck it up whilst you hoard extortionate subscription fees.

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith 🔰 (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia No, I’m on the super hub 2ac. I have got no wired connections and so am not/cannot check them. The box is working fine as is the internet through the box so I assume the problem is just with the WiFi.

  • HannGrenade__ Hannah Stevenson (@HannGrenade__) reported from Lincoln District, England

    Disgusting service from @virginmedia, moved home and told package would stay the same, now been slapped with a bill for TRIPLE what we pay!!! After 20 minutes of the phone the customers services lady cannot explain where all the charges come from!! DISPICABLE!!!

  • jojoclinton joanne clinton (@jojoclinton) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Your missing the point-I’m no longer a customer I want my emails back and account closed. Cyber Crime are involved and this is ridiculous #shameonyou @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog #blackmail

  • szymon__j Szymon (@szymon__j) reported from Balderton, England

    @virginmedia The issue hasn’t been resolved yet but they’re attempting to, I have to wait and see what it’s going to be like over the next couple of days

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith 🔰 (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia There was a fault that had an estimated fix of Tuesday at 18.00. We have had complete loss of connection like we had done before but now it’s intermittent and keeps dropping out. Issues since Sunday now, the fact we are on Friday is something of a joke.

  • cannabicyclol David A Slack (@cannabicyclol) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    Why @virginmedia does your service status say broadband in NG5 is fine when it clearly is not (again!) - as confirmed by your offshore support team.

  • itsbeka91 🌜 B E K A 🌛 (@itsbeka91) reported from Boultham, England

    @virginmedia Internet is ******* shocking. Every week we have connection issues and never any refunds for payment. Absolute joke. Will be swiftly looking for a new provider

  • castiger14 🔱ayne (@castiger14) reported from Lincoln District, England

    So @virginmedia are doing a discounted deal plus £100 credit for ex service people who have the DDS card , very good of them if they didn’t tell me that it can only be done online!! So if you’ve served your country and decide to call them on the phone , tough! @discounts_mod

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith 🔰 (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Given that I can access the internet through the TiVo box I’d think the wired connection is ok. This is happening frequently now and there is never an issue shown on the status page but is often an issue when I run the troubleshoot. I’m increasingly fed up with the service.

  • richardfox92 Richard Fox (@richardfox92) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia so still waiting for my return call about escalating a billing dispute, that was started Tuesday. Very poor service once again, and to be told in the call you can send an engineer to see if its crossed wires at a one off charge of £90 that's taking the ****.

  • Soph115 Sophie (@Soph115) reported from Bracebridge Heath, England

    @virginmedia We took the new deal online which included a television for being a new customer. Therefore, we got a second box fitted & 4 months later, still NO TV. For the first month, the box didn’t work properly & we were promised a discount of our monthly bill & that didn’t happen either.

  • Baybury Hayley Toyne (@Baybury) reported from Branston, England

    So frustrated with @virginmedia service tonight, been on phone for over 40 minutes, broadband speed of 15 mbps not the 200 we upgraded too!!!!! And no getting the customer service rep to understand we have been complaining since Friday. #poorcustomerservice #hellosky

  • BenDentith0690 Ben Dentith 🔰 (@BenDentith0690) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @bucklandmatthew @virginmedia It’s really poor, I feel like you just spend most of your time going around in circles with them. Status page will say no issue, troubleshoot page says issue and to turn everything off. You do so and it still doesn’t work and you get the same message from the TS again.

  • richardfox92 Richard Fox (@richardfox92) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @SkyUK was thinking of leaving @virginmedia but you broadband speed is way to slow even though BT say they can give 300 MB with ultra fast fibre. Now thinking doing a split tv with sky bb with vm. 😭

  • 1_NewarkOutlaw Chris North (@1_NewarkOutlaw) reported from Balderton, England

    25% off my Virgin media bill... I think they keep you on hold & pass you around hoping you will hang up... #GoodMorning

  • fogarty_of HouseOfFogarty (@fogarty_of) reported

    @virginmedia Had issues with my account contacted VM and was fobbed of from a colleague of yours who quite clearly was to lazy to help resolve my issue herself to the so called "bot" service which is a waste of time and has taken me 3 hours to get issue solved thanks to priestly in manchester

  • LetsGoLuxe Luxe (@LetsGoLuxe) reported

    @_Stormbee Ik virgin media is ******* horrible

  • MufcZan MUFC 🏹🙆‍♂️ (@MufcZan) reported

    Another day, same appalling service and coverage from @virginmedia At this point its more of a shock if the channel I want works within 5 minutes of me clicking on it, dreadful service

  • KateCtweets Kate Conway (@KateCtweets) reported

    Why is it that @virginmedia advice for broken WiFi is to log on to their website. Very clever. #cnuts @Ofcom

  • Gouldy12 Gary Gould (@Gouldy12) reported

    @virginmedia Spoke with retention team earlier, guy rude and not helpful, I decided NOT to leave you but still got a ‘sorry you are leaving’ email - what can I do?

  • cianofarelio Ganner Rhysode (@cianofarelio) reported

    ******* hell Virgin Media support are awful. Been trying to talk to someone for a day and a half now, and twice they've only responded after I've given up the wait of several hours

  • seajay_c Blade 3 (@seajay_c) reported

    @virginmedia Where do we go to complain about how slow our broadband is recently

  • SAFEintheUK Please do Retweet 🔱 @for_branch (@SAFEintheUK) reported

    @virginmedia What a stupid unimaginative reply. I obviously do all the checks before phoning your useless customer service dept. No known issues. Your network is falling apart invest or go bust. You choose!

  • susmo59 susanne morris (@susmo59) reported

    @virginmedia your support lady told me that my Virgin router is incompatible with Sky Q -no fix and cannot reset. Only solution offered was to get Virgin TV. Is this legal? Your customer’s should have freedom of choice

  • rothwel Lynn Rothwell (@rothwel) reported

    @AlexExile10 @virginmedia It does that and then mostly you want to do strangling or something with a hammer but that doesn't work either. Put nice music and pour yourself something x
