Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Lewes, England

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

  • melon_h Helen Rimmer 💙 🔶️ (@melon_h) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia But why do we have to keep looking for information. Is there no way of updating the customer directly, it is appalling customer communication. What is the problem? Why just keep putting estimates? If it isn't going to be fixed for 48 hours tell us.

  • MrBrianRoe Brian Roe (@MrBrianRoe) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia No, not at the moment! Guess what? Yep, your broadband is down in my area in #brighton. Well done, sterling service. You must be really proud. I have artwork to upload to my website and can't. And all you are going to do is say "sorry". That really won't help, it'll irritate.

  • gismotigga Gis (sarah)🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🤘 (@gismotigga) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @ElliePeace01 @virginmedia I went via complaints department bin the end via email complete paper trail they couldn't get out of it then, virgin media are notoriously bad customer service.

  • mejones2121 Michael Jones (@mejones2121) reported from Woodingdean, England

    @virginmedia Absolute rubbish. I pay a premium for super fast broadband and it buffers during Streaming plus I've had no internet or phone line all day YET AGAIN. #internet #broadband #poor service

  • melon_h Helen Rimmer 💙 🔶️ (@melon_h) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia This is still appalling customer service. I have to register (I did this when things were down in Dec for almost 72 hours), I have to alert etc you are the service provider. How is it good CS that we assume you are lying in estimates? No compensation for Dec either.

  • MrBrianRoe Brian Roe (@MrBrianRoe) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia your DNS TTL (a web server change time to live) is probably the worst on earth. My new website works everywhere in the world other than on #virginmedia broadband. You absolutely suck, big time. Crock of shite.

  • richardscovell 🏳️‍🌈 #SociallyDistancingRick 🏳️‍🌈 (@richardscovell) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    1/4 Customer scam alert: When moving and contacting @virginmedia to transfer your services to your new property, if they cannot provide services there they will apply an early disconnection charge which they will state is in accordance with their Legal Stuff, do not accept this.

  • sami_chanchan Sami Channon (@sami_chanchan) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @Ofcom @virginmedia Amazing thank you. I think I am getting somewhere with virgins Twitter team but there phone staff refused to escalate my complaint to a manager several times and then insisted on a call back which will apparently take 72 hours

  • logically_fuzzy JK (He/him) 💙🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 & 🏳️‍⚧️ ally (@logically_fuzzy) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia How can you justify me, a service user for 6 years, paying 3x your current 'new customer' tariff Can I disconnect and rejoin at the lower price please?

  • MrBrianRoe Brian Roe (@MrBrianRoe) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia You maybe there, but you'll drop the call...again, and again, and then once more for luck. Bloody awful expireince trying to phone you. Not something I'm willing to repeat.

  • alternativeage Alternative Ageing (@alternativeage) reported from Saltdean, England

    @virginmedia I have it for years and was told it was quite old by techies improving my signal around the house (AMPLIFI ) But if there isn't anything else, so be it. Many thanks .

  • melon_h Helen Rimmer 💙 🔶️ (@melon_h) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia Yes it says there is a known fault which has been going on since Friday at 7pm. No further explanation and the estimate fix just keeps resetting. It is absolutely unacceptable.

  • richardscovell 🏳️‍🌈 #SociallyDistancingRick 🏳️‍🌈 (@richardscovell) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    3/4 T&Cs: Moving home outside of or within the Virgin Media Network service area “If you move within our service area, we cannot guarantee to provide you services, if we are unable to provide services, then you can cancel and you will not need to pay an early disconnection fee”

  • mejones2121 Michael Jones (@mejones2121) reported from Woodingdean, England

    @virginmedia no internet or phone line yet again. The worst service from a provider I've ever had. #internet #internetshutdown

  • GrassHoppus Ellie Cole 🐆 (@GrassHoppus) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia how can you charge a disconnection fee for a service I never renewed and disconnected the day my contract ended? Absolutely ridiculous and I'm still being charged for the contract I never renewed!

  • melon_h Helen Rimmer 💙 🔶️ (@melon_h) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    Hi @virginmedia any news on why our broadband and TV haven't worked since 7pm yesterday in Burgess Hill? No comms and status update just says you are aware with an expected fix moving on in time...

  • alternativeage Alternative Ageing (@alternativeage) reported from Saltdean, England

    @virginmedia problems again, on/off WiFi for 2 days now. Can't work and gather it will be fixed by 6 tonight. Can you verify! Postcode BN2 8AE. Not good enough - do we get a rebate for 2 days of lost work?

  • gismotigga Gis (sarah)🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🤘 (@gismotigga) reported from Hove, England

    @TonyMaudsley1 @virginmedia Because they are crap

  • DKarunda David (@DKarunda) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @southwarker @SkyHelpTeam I think this is a major issue. Experiencing same issues with Virgin Media at the moment

  • esjexe Siobhan Fitzgerald-Gibson (@esjexe) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia Intermittent broadband service for 24 hours, no contact or apology, and when I called your customer service rep said it wasn't on the status page because "it only affects 25% of customers." Your company should be up in front of Ofcom.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Sau59g79 heart of the matter (@Sau59g79) reported

    @virginmedia The only option that offered was for me to setup another contract with Virgin that would allow them to issue a PAC number for my original mobile number. I have to wait for the SIM to arrive before this can be done, so God only knows when I will have my number working again

  • brianholt24 Brian Holt (@brianholt24) reported

    @OffMyNoodles @MichaelBrailsfo @virginmedia I gave up and wrote to them to cancel my broadband service because they were charging me £60.50 per month whilst advertising 26.99 for new customers. Today I got notification that the charge will increase by 3.25 in March. I cancelled my DD

  • nicodsmit Nico Daniel Smit (@nicodsmit) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia terrible customer service! Stay away. @virginmedia is good #takingyourmoney or #upselling your contract and then 4get about you. I have been without service since 9 DEC 2021. One lie after the next. Keep billing me. NO HELP!!!!!

  • PaulineShannan1 Pauline Shannan (@PaulineShannan1) reported

    @virginmedia I've been trying to contact you for 3 days so that has nothing to do with technical issues that you are having right now. I will call again tomorrow

  • DavidCo32778841 David Coombs (@DavidCo32778841) reported

    @virginmedia Listening to tedious, repetitive script that has to be read; inability of staff to respond to knowledge of customer; repetitive nature of process - carry out basic checks when you encounter problem, follow same process online then do same thing twice more when talking on phone,

  • debbiecrowther1 debbie crowther (@debbiecrowther1) reported

    @virginmedia @SonyRichards4 Is that the connect app that just says my bad we can’t connect to your hub try again the oops my bad! But don’t bother trying to call to actually speak to someone as they’ll be system issues or you’ll be cut off or you’ll just give up because you’ve spent days trying

  • FhaheenK Fhaheen Alam Khan (@FhaheenK) reported

    @virginmedia You won't let us cancel our expired contract that's what. Called way too many times just to be hung up on because we want to leave. @Ofcom we allowing this?

  • aesdoom AesDOOM (@aesdoom) reported

    @virginmedia Just spent 1hr waiting just to be hung up on trying to cancel my contract due to price increase.

  • DaveOfMan Dave (@DaveOfMan) reported

    @OffMyNoodles @virginmedia Cancel your direct debit, they'll call you back before you get through to them.

  • ElimuAnn Ann Bircumshaw (@ElimuAnn) reported

    @mel_gav @virginmedia No just the substandard level of customer (dis)service at Scottish Power🥴
