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

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia I've already spoken to them many times including tonight and they can't do anything other than tell me that the date has moved yet again. Nobody seems to be able or willing to fix your broken status system.

  • Morvaridp Morvarid (@Morvaridp) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia will someone actually be able to help us or will we get the same service we’ve been getting from various people we’ve been talking to? I don’t know how else to escalate this anymore!!! It’s taken so much of our time and added stress ...

  • Jamesmeredith James Meredith (@Jamesmeredith) reported from Camberwell, England

    @CommunityFibre @virginmedia #broadband #internet I cancelled Virgin Media broadband in January due to poor customer service and very poor upload speed. Community Fibre are an amazing company! Speeds upload & down 150meg half the price of Virgin. Cust Serv outstanding!! CF!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

  • faysasilva Elizabeth Silva (@faysasilva) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia That might be the case for others but In Our estate we have been instructed by the engineers to call virgin for an internal switching of service as the new connections are live . The main point is I’m without service I can’t work, no TV no phone and will be until Monday according

  • pantolady Deborah Barnard (@pantolady) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @JulieBoon @kimbochambers I think it was a Sky problem. Ours was fine on virgin media x

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Your service status online tells me everything is fine, even when I run a test, while tech support can only tell me that there IS a fault and the estimated repair date has been shifted yet again, this time to April 21st. SMS updates are useless too. It's absolutely infuriating.

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    This was day *15* of working from home with no broadband thanks to @virginmedia and no reliable information about fixing the outage, no provision of an alternative connection (e.g. 4G dongle) and many hours wasted on hold. No wonder they are worst-rated by @WhichUK - avoid! 🤬

  • winetaff Lee James (@winetaff) reported from Esher, England

    @virginmedia Apparently a local fault but my signal test says no issue -still not resolved and still no TV -follow up call that was promised within 3 days hasn’t materialised (Day 6 and counting)

  • peterpintodesa Peter Pinto de Sa (@peterpintodesa) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Hello - it's been a week so far. Still no broadband. Still no information. Still no contact. Continued dreadful service from Virgin. What can you suggest, please?

  • faysasilva Elizabeth Silva (@faysasilva) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia I have not internet in my flat in EC1V9ET since Monday. No explanation no comment and after calling the Customer Service team every day for an update today I was told that I should not be working from home if I’m not a business.! So that’s just 👍 great. That’s why 1

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Your various automated customer service systems are a horrible mess, they flat out contradict each other! It's shamefully bad & has been so for a long time so this can't be news to you. Why have @virginmedia STILL not done anything about these basic customer experience problems?

  • Morvaridp Morvarid (@Morvaridp) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia We signed a new contract and we were meant to have internet connection by Monday/Tuesday. We still don’t! We called then on Wednesday and they said they call back. They never did. We called yesterday. They said they’ll look into it. Nothing yet!!

  • Purp_Amethyst Maya (@Purp_Amethyst) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia guys my internet is not working ?

  • jackbremer The Honourable Jack Bremer, Laird of Loch Borralan (@jackbremer) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @virginmedia All, got builders in, need to talk to someone The point I was making was your app is bad

  • peterpintodesa Peter Pinto de Sa (@peterpintodesa) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia None, sadly. Email updates promised & never arrived. A call from an engineer also promised & never happened. The social media team have been responsive. Other parts of Virgin much less so.

  • BhaviniShah Bhavini Shah (@BhaviniShah) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia Thanks - it's actually a poor customer service complaint. I'll send a text. Thanks

  • faysasilva Elizabeth Silva (@faysasilva) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia can you tell me why my internet connection is gone from the outside of my house? You have left me 3 days without internet for 3 days with no explanation and now when I call your customer service you tell me n a recorded message an engineer is coming and when I call

  • JP_Goddard John Paul Goddard (@JP_Goddard) reported from Bexleyheath, England

    @virginmedia what a joke! Tale of two cities. One advisor couldn’t be more helpful when I rang up with a complaint - I even ended up adding to my package. One was rude, patronising and obnoxious. I get a 14 day cool off might just cancel it. Fuming 😡😡😡

  • kimweston90 Kim Weston (@kimweston90) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia don’t appreciate being hung up on by your despatch team. I’m aware of an issue today in the SE20 area, however I have had issues with my connection for the last week - could you please help since your call centre won’t?

  • marcustucker Marcus Tucker (@marcustucker) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Surely you must agree that your service status is useless if there's a fault for 15 days but doesn't once give me a correct status? Why is the status tool broken and why is it not being fixed?

  • ijr1970 Ian Richardson (@ijr1970) reported

    @virginmedia any idea what's going on? Can't access anything on your domain. Looks like your service has gone mammaries skyward.

  • JasonPearson1 Jason Pearson (@JasonPearson1) reported

  • JBoaLdn JB (@JBoaLdn) reported

    @kanengonij @virginmedia Same I'm in London, Internet has been down since yesterday

  • Haribo_86 Haribo (@Haribo_86) reported

    @BBCNews @SkyNews @virginmedia has a National outage it seems & yet they have not reported a single issue through anyone of their possible channels! I find it very hard to believe someone doesn’t have access to a 4G router to notify their customer base

  • realjtk James T Kelly (@realjtk) reported

    Sigh. @virginmedia down again. Right after they hiked the prices, too. You couldn’t make it up.
