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

  • harrybilbao Harry Bilbao (@harrybilbao) reported from Poplar, England

    @virginmedia Wayyyyy over 24 hours. No reply. A router and power supply that’s overheating and customer service don’t care. This is how fires are caused #Grenfell

  • RyanTring Ryan Tring (@RyanTring) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia I’m not interested. I am interested in having Virgin Broadband that doesn’t fail every day. You’ve designed your website so that it’s impossible to report a fault and there’s no-one answering the ‘phone. Pathetic. Is there a fault in E17?

  • wantrealtruth ross (@wantrealtruth) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia signed my mum up for service today. Got email but have spent 4 hours trying to get hold of you as the number you included is not manned “due to covid” the main number take ages to find online. No one answers it. Can’t email anyone. Think I want to cancel already!!

  • ImaginaryCard Mo-Mo (@ImaginaryCard) reported from Hammersmith, England

    @virginmedia down yet again. Where's the refund for all the hours lost with no WiFi connection?

  • JonR43 Jonathan Rourke (A575910) (@JonR43) reported from Hounslow, England

    .@virginmedia where is the London Irish game!! Should be on BT sport 2 Extra but red button not working!!

  • narifahad Londonfoodster (@narifahad) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia what is wrong with your service in W3 . Connection keeps dropping off every 30-45 min. Can't do our work peacefully.

  • Vveksrivastava Vivek Srivastava (@Vveksrivastava) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia I was promised a call today from the case manager after she would have discussed the issue with the area manager, sadly no update! Disappointed again!!!

  • Maybank1970 Gareth Maybank (@Maybank1970) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Hi, I’ve got a bit of a problem. I can sign into my Virgin Media account on my iPad just fine, but when I try to sign into my emails it’s says it’s not available and to try again in an hours time. Well, it’s been like this for two weeks now. What’s going on?

  • M_Macedo_ Driving For Charity UK (@M_Macedo_) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia Are you asking me a question? Surely this is something you should answer? Premier Sports coverage awful, then the feed distruption meant most of the game was missed and no highlights. I paid extra for this and you're asking me to find the fix?!!

  • edward_baran Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia There are your usual garbage explanations yes. Saying no fix for hours. Not good enough

  • KikassP CazkikassPhotography (@KikassP) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia thanks on behalf of all virgin media customers for not being able to pick up phones to help those who need help but have no wish to "Do it on line" we haven't received any compensation for 3 days of no net even though we have registered it everyday. PART ONE

  • SeetalRihal Seetal Rihal (@SeetalRihal) reported from Ilford, England

    75% of my working from home stress is due to @virginmedia offering the shittest Internet service on the planet

  • Lorrain00085752 Lorrainebarrett1981@gmail.com (@Lorrain00085752) reported from Eltham, England

    @virginmedia Hi why cant we pay our bill over the phone the automatic system not working.

  • Kineets Kineta Kelsall (@Kineets) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve checked. To be honest it’s been so inconsistent since we’ve had it, which isn’t ideal. Therefore I more than likely cancel unless something miraclasley changes in the next 24 hours

  • edward_baran Edward Baran (@edward_baran) reported from Kensington, England

    Once again virgin media down in central London SW5. No television and no broadband #virginmedia #virginmediadown @virginmedia

  • M_Macedo_ Driving For Charity UK (@M_Macedo_) reported from Richmond, England

    @SpursOfficial It doesn't matter where I'll be tuning in from the service disruption of @PremierSportsTV means I'll miss all the key points of the game! Thxs! @virginmedia

  • JLoveRage James Loveridge (@JLoveRage) reported from Islington, England

    Hey @virginmedia, the internet is down again, has been for 8 hours.

  • harrybilbao Harry Bilbao (@harrybilbao) reported from City of London, England

    @virginmedia My mother lives next to Grenfell and she’s a bit paranoid her router and/or charger is overheating. Customer services aren’t taking her serious. What should I do? Besides unplugging the service?

  • RyanTring Ryan Tring (@RyanTring) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia Yet again your broadband service has failed in E17. It failed Monday lunchtime and has failed again now. Is the service held together with elastic bands? Might I suggest that the local infrastructure requires investment/upgrading? Pathetic

  • taunch Anthony Carlos (@taunch) reported from Ealing, England

    @mservicedeals The only features available with @virginmedia is a life of misery. Awful service

  • UsernameError4 UsernameError (@UsernameError4) reported

    @virginmedia will lie to you, will 'resolve' the complaint, then will carry on shafting you as before. Thinking about moving from @SkyUK ..... don't do it. Just don't!

  • jsbilsbrough James (@jsbilsbrough) reported

    I knew @virginmedia were scum bags, but to raise prices by £3.50 during a pandemic is just cruel. My parents rely on their connectivity, they also look after my nephew and help him with online school. Looking for alternative providers.

  • stephengbrown Stephen Brown (@stephengbrown) reported

    @clairemelamed @virginmedia We got charged for engineers' visits without any warning and the visits happened only after customer service had verified there *was* a fault on the line.

  • Stewartross1978 Stewart Ross (@Stewartross1978) reported

    @virginmedia do you have a link for online help please? That’s an hour now I’ve been waiting on phone and can’t wait any longer to get through

  • ClareWa25480750 Clare Walker (@ClareWa25480750) reported

    @SiBaker_ @virginmedia @SiBaker I'm experiencing the same problems and not getting anywhere. Our internet keeps randomly dropping out and then we can't reconnect! It's so stressful and embarrassing when you are on conference calls

  • RachelDinning Rachel Dinning (@RachelDinning) reported

    Hi Virgin Media, I've been on hold for two and a half hours. I have texted your help number and tried to talk to your bot on the website. No help so far. I want to cancel my Virgin Media contract once the 12-month term is complete and yet there is no feasible way to do this?

  • Tanisha98246134 Tanisha (@Tanisha98246134) reported

    @virginmedia I noticed what y’all doing. After 6pm you cut off my broadband. You best sort this **** out

  • Tanisha98246134 Tanisha (@Tanisha98246134) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah but this was never an issue before so why now? After 6pm wifi starts acting up, at times it completely cuts out and I can’t stream. I need a solution not a defence please!

  • camcanary StewartB (@camcanary) reported

    @virginmedia Multiple VM users in the CB24 area lost connectivity at the same time. It’s not a user side issue, it’s your network!!!

  • jodymedland Jody Medland (@jodymedland) reported

    @virginmedia Well your live chat`s no longer an option, sending messages from my account gets no response, my emails aren't answered, the text service doesn't work, your telephone queue times are obscene, often just dropping out after 40-mins, and social media is unhelpful. What else you got?
