Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Lincoln, England

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

  • ceeo Ceefit (@ceeo) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Internet speeds up and down or not on at all. 2 hours on phone to be cut off! Not happy I've got work to complete. Your customer service is poor! #virginmedia

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I do get fed up with @virginmedia platitudes and inability to solve why I have poor connections speed, down to 28kbs at the moment, but your Helpdesk, after I waited 45 minutes, do not consider this to be a problem. Try downloading a 100Mb spreadsheet at that speed.

  • Pogit Richard Adams (@Pogit) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @O2 @virginmedia Thanks I’ll look into what multi-sim plans you have but the reason I left was due to poor family, multi user based tariffs.

  • louisemirwitch Louise Mirwitch (@louisemirwitch) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Please let me know what I should press to get through to support. The options are totally garbled

  • obendorf Simon Obendorf (@obendorf) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia No. Trying to upgrade to a faster broadband-only plan. Chat can’t do it because cancelling the landline I don’t use is heretical. Fastest broadband speeds require me to take a SIM I don’t want or need. Online tries to push a TV service. No one listens. Customer fumes.

  • lexyfj_ Lexy F-J 🦊 (@lexyfj_) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia hello, I'm having an issue signing into my online account, I've tried resetting my password and have entered the correct information multiple times, it says that the site doesn't recognise my account/password. Can you please advise?

  • djn2911 Obi-Dan (@djn2911) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    My @virginmedia wifi does not reach my bedroom and they are not selling anymore of their new mesh network pods so i am thinking of leaving them. Any recommendations for good wifi providers?

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia You can tell it's the weekend when your SONOS speaker is not able to stream radio on a consistent basis, due to intermittent internet problems, which I reported two weeks ago, got a visit on the following Wednesday, got told the installation was poor and left.

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia @Sonos I don't want meaningless "Sorry for the poor service" what I want is it to be fixed, and fixed permanently, and to be supplied with what I am paying for, which is a stable 200Mbs service.

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I do really get fed up with VirginMedias poor service and platitudes. The speed on my internet connection is down less than 56kb, but your Helpdesk technicians consider this to be a problem

  • ceeo Ceefit (@ceeo) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Its intermitant last few times its the whole unit fault not working

  • Tim_Arnold1977 Tim (@Tim_Arnold1977) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Yes. It's odd, it's like I've still got some service but it comes up 'no internet connection' when I go to Google etc.

  • lexyfj_ Lexy F-J 🦊 (@lexyfj_) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for the reply. I've only got one account with you and have used the same email - I have been receiving emails about my bills & offers etc but can't sign in online.

  • spice2001 Tom Spice (@spice2001) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @jack108986 @virginmedia Seems lots of people are having the same problem. I’d go on channel 100 and hope by the time McGregor is on they’d fixed the issue.

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia I have not made any changes, and I have a Hub 3, and a pair of 5 year old TiVo boxes, one of which is having problems playing back things that have been recorded. But as I don't want waste an hour if my time in a queue, I shall just look forward to the end of the contract ....

  • SkyAlicry AlicrySky (@SkyAlicry) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia It’s intermittent. Not off often enough to be called no service or you’d have to pay us back for the lack of service but not on long enough to be much use.

  • ceeo Ceefit (@ceeo) reported from Carlton on Trent, England

    @virginmedia Yes one minute its on then off the service for internet is very poor. It says we need an engineer !

  • Clive_Burt Clive Burt (@Clive_Burt) reported from North Hykeham, England

    @virginmedia Is it an instructional twitch of all customer service officers, to say "I am sorry ....", wouldn't it be better if your organisation actually did something about it? So it becomes the exception and is not the norm?

  • ONLYONEGIBBO GIBBO (@ONLYONEGIBBO) reported from Waddington, England

    So @virginmedia refused to let @SkyUK transfer our landline so now all services have been removed by SKY. How can people work from home when you give a fix date of 3 December - thus needs sorting now - no TV, no WiFi no phone

  • CoddNicholas nick c (@CoddNicholas) reported from Lincoln District, England

    @virginmedia help no phone service in Lincoln can’t phone you off mobile or home phone tried on line site no help at all

  • A_Johnstone Jonno (@A_Johnstone) reported

    @virginmedia Well your operators keep hanging up on me and passing me on to other deptartments then after hours they hang up. It's so frustrating when they tell you there is no fault but it's been off for 7 days+ Working from home with no internet means I am essentially unemployed.

  • MrJack_ONeill Jack O'Neill (@MrJack_ONeill) reported

    @virginmedia It has been on and off for the past three days now and has just gone off again now. It’s so temperamental, really disappointing service

  • A_Johnstone Jonno (@A_Johnstone) reported

    @virginmedia Only 85 times, done everything my side. All cables been checked numerous times. Either the Hub 3.0 is broken or their is a fault on the line. But I can't get an engineer out as the people I speak to can't do that and want to transfer me to someone else, they hang up though.

  • BlueRoseCode Blue Rose Code (@BlueRoseCode) reported

    .@virginmedia On hold for one and a half hours and now you cut me off. Waiting since noon for a broadband activation despite a text from you telling me my service had been activated. Awful customer experience. Anyone else had similar?

  • Phtevenrobert Phtevenrobert (@Phtevenrobert) reported

    @virginmedia I've tried everything I could possible try, by myself AND with someone on the phone, and my speed is getting worse. I can't do anything I need to do to get by without internet. Service Status on the website is just a picture, I'm sure of it, it only ever says 'No known problems'

  • mattybonney matty (@mattybonney) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I've been asked to go the forum before of which I have, myself and my neighbours have been told of the issue by the engineers who came down. Which is due to the Comms boxes outside, but we need to be told exactly when this is going to be resolved

  • EmilyDrabs Emily Drabble (@EmilyDrabs) reported from Camberwell, England

    God put me out of my misery - holding on the phone to @virginmedia for more than four hours! Spoken to many people who put me through to other people but no one helps me. It’s the same 2 crap songs. At least get a playlist 😢😢😢

  • NicolaSimpson78 Nicola Simpson (@NicolaSimpson78) reported

    @virginmedia having issues again with slow internet speeds and completely losing internet connection... this is happening almost every day now, I can't get through on the phone and can't get a response on live chat....

  • _Bukss B (@_Bukss) reported

    @virginmedia are ***************. Flagging up my account as having ‘disconnected debt’ despite never missing a payment or making any late payments

  • Phtevenrobert Phtevenrobert (@Phtevenrobert) reported

    @A_Johnstone @virginmedia @richardbranson Hung up again!? This is an absolute scam. We gotta let people know about this, I'm gonna get sending some messages to some people.. this isn't acceptable. It's theft. You pay, they don't provide the service.. what if that was the other way around and we didn't pay? It'd be court.
