Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Islington and nearby locations:
-
Connor Dean (@donnorcean) reported from London, England@virginmedia Still cutting in and out as it has been for many weeks… no local area issues listed anywhere. Have been trying to get ahold of someone for weeks now but just keeps looping in the app, really frustrating
-
Mark Armstrong (@markatpt) reported from London, England@virginmedia you have now postponed an installation scheduled for 4th November to Christmas Eve! Can’t see that happening. Maybe someone actually based in the UK might bother to contact me about this? Minded to cancel otherwise. Not acceptable service.
-
Mr Lee Daniel (@MisterLeeDaniel) reported from London, England@virginmedia Stop calling me then hanging up. That’s rude.
-
Juan Folgar Colomer (@jfcolomer) reported from London, England@virginmedia what's the reason for the intermittent broadband service in the Charlton #SE7 area? Any ETA when this will be solved?
-
Roger Highfield (@RogerHighfield) reported from London, England@virginmedia, your app does not seem to think there's a problem with the internet in area 21. I think different. Can you check?!
-
Steven Peterson 🏳️🌈 (@squeakytoy) reported from Islington, England@virginmedia I’ve already terminated my service with you since you were unable to get it installed in less than a month.
-
Zahida (@zkhussain) reported from City of London, England@virginmedia can you please answer your phone as I want to cancel my contract. Or give me an alternative number to contact you on.
-
Mary (@SandraS80775853) reported from London, England@virginmedia @Miss_SKM That is correct. What it does not cover is the persistent loss of service since August!!! #se7. Nor does it cover the absolute woeful customer services, and I use that phrase lightly, which @virginmedia is able to offer.

Burnley Dave:Not woke just human.💙🌈🍺🇪🇺 (@tlcko1882) reported from London, England@journokeith @virginmedia Good as in they acknowledged your existence was what I meant. That's how their "customer services" is set up, they don't have the staff based in the UK to deal with it and all they can do is what they are doing.

kikassPhotography(official) 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@KikassP) reported from London, England@thatmisterj @virginmedia I'm so sick of it I WILL be leaving Virgin. No-one picking up phone, Just saying there appears to be an intermittent fault. Well No **** Sherlock, I already know that. A dumb text telling me to do what I've already done. I'm not thick Virgin I just want the service I pay for.

グラハム・スミス® ©Official (@BancoDePapa) reported from London, England@TfL why is the 4G signal on the Central line underground only around the posh area's of Notting Hill Gate, Queensway and Holland Park? Since @virginmedia stopped their WiFi in April it's annoying that a major metropolis like London has no internet connections on a lot of lines

kikassPhotography(official) 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@KikassP) reported from London, EnglandPlease @virginmedia can you change your waiting music. Its the same 4 tracks adnauseum & very poor quality at that. No wonder customers who wait for over an hour hang up. Its enough to drive you mad with these earworms all day.
-
Becky Kelly (Göllner) (@BeckyKellyNews) reported from Hackney, England@virginmedia He has tried this and every time it just reverts to an automated bot response that doesn’t accept/understand /respond to his request to cancel. I need another way. As it’s proving impossible and stressful
