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

  • AnnieLouLDN Annie Lou (@AnnieLouLDN) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia I want to use your app, I really do but I can’t create an account as my acc no (as found on top right of my paper bill) is only 8 digits. And not the 9 you require. Why is using your service so difficult? And my internet connection so rubbish? PS. I can count!

  • DemeryUK Daniel Emery (@DemeryUK) reported from Richmond, England

    @browntoby @virginmedia My wife works at a well known provider. The biggest discounts are available from ‘retentions’ i.e tell them you want to cancel and you can sometimes get over 1/3 off your bill.

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Anyone thinking about using Virgin Media read all the negative feedback first. This company does not deliver the speeds it promises and worse the services are disrupted and unstable. Impossible to get through to customer services and impossible to cancel.

  • vorny_twts matt 🇮🇳 (@vorny_twts) reported from Merton, England

    This zoom call keeps crashing **** off @virginmedia

  • Ethanisraelite Ethan Greenwood (@Ethanisraelite) reported from Barnet, England

    Dear @virginmedia since you refuse to pick up your phones and there is no way to contact you I wish to cancel my broadband contract on march 05th. Please do not renew it.

  • AnnieLouLDN Annie Lou (@AnnieLouLDN) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Spoke to someone in customer service and hopefully your IT dept will resolve the app issues .... but you still haven’t replied to this tweet AND my internet connection is atrocious. So glad I’m teaching online .... not 😩😠

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Just spent an hour on the phone to yourselves, not only is the service going to be referred to @Ofcom due to frequent drops in the service + no LL, but you can’t offer me a 12mth contract insisting I have 18mth. Well, I might take up @SkyTV’s offer reluctantly. #Ealing

  • CMS200 Chris S (@CMS200) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Not very helpful. If your company can’t fix the issue, why would the community be able to? Spent another hour on the phone again today, again being told I will get a call back in 45 mins. It didn’t happen. Still no email!

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia I did call. One chap was very helpful and referred the poor broadband service and a faulty landline for two years to @Ofcom and the latter chap was not very helpful. Would you stay and have your monthly fee go from £28.50 to £49.50?

  • Goldenlocks Estelle Levacher (@Goldenlocks) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia hello, we are unhappy with our broadband. It’s bad as my husband and I are both WFH and my Teams calls are regularly interrupted. We have the highest broadband package available and pay over £100 a month so it’s clearly unacceptable. Please send an engineer ASAP!

  • sunnydeo Sunny Deo (@sunnydeo) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @virginmedia you have one hour to respond with a solution. 5 - hours spent on call centres 3 - failed outdoor pre-installations. 2 - failed indoor wifi installations. 1st - time customer. This how you treat customers? No solution today, fine, I’ll go with @skytv

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia It doesn’t for me. Virgin has build a wall of impenetrable bots and automised systems that makes any communication impossible.well done of not making any attempt to help your customers. This is such an arrogant attitude

  • MirinaFaria 🏀Little Apple🍎Miri (@MirinaFaria) reported from Bromley, England

    Can’t wait till I get to cancel my @virginmedia contract and move to BT. I mean selling me 200Mb internet and not even delivering an average of 10Mb is not cool right! I mean imagine all the people that pay for the same service but don’t know how to measure it!? Right!

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Still no reply from any of your online contacts - unacceptable customer service

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia That is a lie and your as should be reported. If your wifi works it early gets up to the speed that you charge me for. You also fail to mention that you slow down speeds when everyone is watching. So many disappointments when the wheel start spinning

  • jemmacrow Jemma Crow (@jemmacrow) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia still had no response to why my internet is so shockingly bad. Not great when trying to work from home...

  • MirinaFaria 🏀Little Apple🍎Miri (@MirinaFaria) reported from Bromley, England

    Wouldn’t it be nice if @virginmedia actually delivered the service they get paid for!? And when you called to talk to them they actually answer or when you go on the offered live chat you’d get a person and not a robot!? Yeah me too. #worstservice #virginmedia

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Is that the terminology? As I said I don’t wish to discuss it on Twitter. Think a complaint is now in order and a cancellation request.

  • JKDabrowska Cllr Joanna K Dąbrowska 💙 (@JKDabrowska) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia Can I please DM you on this issue?

  • noneybean Antje Southern (@noneybean) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia Hello anyone there? Could you please reply to my last message? As my landline is not working and there is no email support it seems Twitter is the only other way to get hold of Virgin Media. Please advice how to get hold of customer services not 0345 as too expensive

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Fitzy_072 Fitzy 🍀 (@Fitzy_072) reported

    @virginmedia I have the Hub 4. The problems started when my hub was upgraded. I have ran the relevant tests for the last 3 months and there are no issues in the area. I have also ran the connect app. The problem is the hardware How do I replace my hub without waiting 1 hour+ on a phone?

  • claireglenton Claire Glenton (@claireglenton) reported from Nottinghamshire, England

    @virginmedia even your text message service is cutting me off now. I really don’t know how to get in touch with anyone! I just need my WiFi to work!!!

  • _KaitlinLouise Kaitlin Louise (@_KaitlinLouise) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah, I've logged in to test the service and it's fine. It just doesn't make sense why it disconnects multiple times everyday

  • TheOnlyElChazmo QuarterPastThree (@TheOnlyElChazmo) reported

    @virginmedia and be on hold for another hour? for them to tell me there are no issues? I don't mind being capped during peak time - but 50%? Seriously?? #SlowlyConnected

  • arjuneration Medhi Murphy (@arjuneration) reported

    @indejames @virginmedia Signal is a lot better than Hub 3. But their app to to do tests is not compatible. Worth getting a wifi extender.

  • BRuth6 Ruth (@BRuth6) reported

    @virginmedia Very Good VM. Ignore the tweets about how you treat customers

  • tetstweets Tetsuumi Nagata (@tetstweets) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I'd like to speak to someone at customer service please. Tried the 0345 number but as I've just purchased a broadband package, I don't have an account number and thus can't get through to anyone!!!

  • vfxdms David M Scott (@vfxdms) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John, no it’s not reflected on your service page. The issue is packet loss, so high latency working on PCoIP. I have stats and BQM graphs that show the issues. Posted on VM community forum, was told “worst set of connection stats I have seen. Have virgin come out to fix. “

  • McHilti Mark Oliver (@McHilti) reported

    @virginmedia In an earlier conversation I was threatened with a £100+ bill if I put this crap on the front door step. I'm done with it. It'll be going out in one month from today. My account details are changed so you will have to take me to court where this whole thing will be aired.

  • ManLiikeLZB 𝐋 𝐙 𝐁 (@ManLiikeLZB) reported

    Hey #LiikeMob, there's no stream today because @virginmedia are dog **** at fixing faults. I would apologise, but it's actually not my fault this time!
