Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Kennington and nearby locations:
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia Still no response. 19 days and counting 🙄. It’s clear you’ve been lying to get rid of me. What are you going to do to resolve this issue before I contact ombudsman? A suggestion: you arrange for someone to contact me. By now it should be clear to you your support doesn’t work.
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia I get that. But several people on there have logged issues. I haven’t used that tool but try it. But issue is defo at your end as between outages speed/latency is brilliant and other people have same issue on street. That’s why I’m so keen to fix not leave as usually gr8 service.

Gill Leighton (@GillLeightonNHS) reported from Kennington, EnglandWorking from home over the past few days has been so tricky,our expensive M100 fibre broadband has been so slow that I had to resort to using my 4 G , tonight is 5 th evening in a row on hold for over an hour #virginmedia please can you help ? Important NHS meetings tomorrow !
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia Still keeps going off. Has been like this for months now. Has gone off twice this evening. Can’t get hold of anyone. Self service goes in circles. Just need to speak to someone who will listen to the issue. It has to be network level. 2 engineers have confirmed our setup is fine.
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia Well since our exchange I’ve now been asked my problem and same security questions by an automated text bot 3 times with no actual response. Now the internet has just gone off again during the football. Think I’ll stop recommending @virginmedia to people now.
-
Martin Holme (@Chataranga) reported from Kennington, England@virginmedia do you have ANY customer service people working? I have tried ringing you for the last 24 hours and constantly get a ‘ring back later’ message. The service these days is appalling. I sent a tweet yesterday that mentioned Amazon and they replied to me. Virgin didn’t!
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia No not aware of status line please advise. No interest in community support forum. This is an issue with your service and equipment. Needs proper support.
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia so am missing the football again - about the third time now in about 6 weeks. Engineers have replaced all cables and router but refuse to accept it’s a network issue. How do I actually progress this or speak to someone who cares?
-
Troy Williams (@troyaaron) reported from Sittingbourne, England@virginmedia I've been in an online chat for nearly 2 hours today just to arrange transfer of services to my new house. I've led the conversation entirely. I'm not even going to report the CMs identity. Just wanted you to know how bad the experience was.
-
Martin Holme (@Chataranga) reported from Kennington, England@virginmedia utterly appalling service from Virgin Media. Internet completely down the other day and now problematic to say the least. Tried phoning earlier and gave up after half an hour. Just tried again and gave up after 35 mins. What has happened to the service? It’s awful
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia This is the exact problem. Your agents deny there is an issue in the area. A recent social media post revealed many people in our neighbourhood have the same issue. All your agents want to do is ‘send signals’ to our router and restart our router. Nobody taking issue seriously.
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia December. Official complaint prior to that. Please read back through your thread, the broken promises and the lies then come back with a proposal to resolve.
-
Martin Holme (@Chataranga) reported from Kennington, England@virginmedia what has happened to your customer service? I have been waiting since Wednesday evening for someone to reply ‘ as soon as possible’ about a fault. Currently on hold as usual on the phone. Is there anyone there at all!?
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia Last week after your call centre agent refused to escalate the 2months of issues highlighted in this thread.

-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia why are you ignoring my tweets on the other thread you started? On your advice been trying to get support over SMS but it just goes in a continuous loop of the same questions for 4 days?!! You also don’t answer your phone or live chat? How do I actually get help?
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia Would rather you fixed the problem.
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia Your agent told me 72hrs. But then I was also told if I post on the forum I will get support. But we can all see how that has panned out. Just. Fix. The. Problem. Why is this so difficult? I guess copy/paste apologies are just cheaper than dealing with the real issues.
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia Just wondered if I’ve waited long enough yet for anyone @virginmedia to care enough to respond to me? Still no forum response. Still not complaint response. Still line issues. Just lies from your SM team.
-
Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England@virginmedia Yes dropouts Ethernet and WiFi. To be clear that message was not our engineer. Just proof prob is beyond our home. That neighbourhood thread is 14 comments long! We’ve had 2 engineers out. Cable replaced and hub replaced. Problem persists. 4 dropouts this eve alone.

-
Jessica Goodyer (@JessGoodyer1111) reportedUpdate - Virgin Media are the worst providers i have ever dealt with. They have since cancelled my policy without speaking to me. I will never use them and don’t suggest it to anyone else
-
Neil Weston (@NeilWeston1978) reported@virginmedia It's been down since 9.30. I appreciate the need for planned maintenance but in these times of working from home, scheduled maintenance of the network for 5 hours is disruptive. I've never known this with any other service provider I've used.
-
GrumpyByName #2706 on the list (@LessGrumpy) reportedVirgin media really do take the biscuit. They’ve just told me that my new cost will be £39 a month higher than anything they’ve quoted me. £40 a month more than they would charge a new customer. I feel another ceo email coming on. His office were meant to have sorted this out.
-
Nick Davenport (@millwallnick80) reported@virginmedia 789922 doesn't work as doesnt allow me to put pin in I'll try manual thank you
-
mark jackson (@marcusfcott) reported@virginmedia I just want to see your offers. I was told about a new deal on the phone, but was unable to understand what they were saying because of the accent. I can’t see any of your offers online as the link just leads me to your awful chatbot service which is absolutely useless.
-
Rocky Ali (@rockyaliboxing) reported@7alext7 I hope so, think that's important, I think I get it free with Virgin Media, have never been a subscriber previously and doubt would be but hopefully it continues like that. Hopefully things are just kept the same or it becomes part of the DAZN subscription at the same price.
-
Ruth (@Ruth26078984) reported@virginmedia Thank you. Yes I was able to do this eventually but it seems a bit of a coincidence that the problem seemedcto get rectified at your end after I had told a helpline operativr that I was considering cancelling my entire Virgin package because I was so frustrated with them.
-
Lucia (@LadyLucia05) reported@virginmedia I'd figured that out, shame they can't sort an earlier date, it's been going on over 8 weeks an now I'm expected to wait another 7wks, very poor service and STILL no contact from my first complaint raised 28/9.
-
steveo (@fluffybubbles73) reportedGotta say @virginmedia has got to be the most awful customer service dept ever
-
shubham bhaskar (@stud_shubham) reportedTakes 30 mins to reach you guys. Attempt 1: took 30 mins and call got cancelled coz of network failure. Call 2: your team couldn’t clarify my doubt, I asked him to put someone else; he put me on hold for long. Call 3: On going.. @virginmedia my query of wrong bill is pending btw
