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

  • GaborPfalzer Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Oh, they did let me cancel, but I had to answer about 3 “last question”s before they proceeded 5 minute response time on chat, took me nearly two hours, after the 4 hours it took to connect an agent. We could get a contract with a credit check in 5 minutes.

  • eviemae239 Ben Rogers (@eviemae239) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia wi-fi down yet again for about the 5th time this week. Constantly going down over last few weeks as well, absolute shambles.

  • wesleyddolly Wesley Dolly (@wesleyddolly) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia how do I get my account details if you have never emailed me or sent me and letters. I don’t even know my account number and have to wait till you text to say my bill is overdue to be able to pay my account. What the hell? Customer service is no help so wtf?

  • andy_s_battle Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia But cutting people off to enforce this is unethical, besides no previous communication has indicated this and the solution is not convenient with where they want to do this and no suggestion to reposition my hub

  • mistervickster Vignesh (@mistervickster) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia how do you have the worst customer service ? Will just have to book a technician to sort out issues with account login.

  • Andrew007Uk Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia John - lights are on but the external fault has already been established. It is a contractor that has to deal with the issue - one claimed to have done it but it failed to work - now you contractor is failing to respond to requests by your colleagues 4 updates on a new commission

  • GaborPfalzer Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @atnori_ @virginmedia Yep, experienced just recently :D I am an extremely patient person… I properly lost it today 🙃 At least the damn thing is cancelled though.

  • andy_s_battle Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia No effort is made to rectify the problem they just want to change to VOIP with no regard to a customer who spends over £1200 a bear for all devices, I wonder what offcom would think

  • GaborPfalzer Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia After the two hour chat, it was finally resolved. Wife have arranged an internet connection to our new flat before this(with Virgin btw), took 5 minutes. Lot of hoops to jump through to cancel, when I just wanted to get it over with. No offers, just cancel.

  • Andrew007Uk Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @PaulWelsh_UK @virginmedia There is no service. 26 November reported - 6th March earliest date for works. I was past to no less than 6 different teams before finally getting somewhere and then being cut off. Anyway welcome home my friend - hope you have more luck than me!

  • wesleyddolly Wesley Dolly (@wesleyddolly) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Done this when I can’t give account or anything they say can’t help you don’t think I tried this first

  • GaborPfalzer Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @BigupJeff @virginmedia Yeah, unfortunately. We are okay with the service, that’s why we kept it in the new one, but the customer service is a joke. Had @Hyperoptic once, was absolutely brilliant. Too bad it’s rarely available.

  • GaborPfalzer Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @AbzAaron @virginmedia Even better… if you don’t play along, nobody else will cancel it. You can’t even hang up on the sales pitch.

  • jennymelmo Jenny (@jennymelmo) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Post code is SM4 4NN , street name : Garth close . There is only one of these boxes on our street and given the condition of it ; you will not miss it if your team come here . Reference id for my complaint is 107332_22100. Can you give me a timeframe by when it will be fixed .M

  • DazzlingHamster Dr Mantis Toboggan M.D. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 (@DazzlingHamster) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia your system says it can’t see any fault on my services but that it can’t run a test on them. Something is wrong clearly, please offer me some support so I can begin my working day at some point.

  • GaborPfalzer Gabor (@GaborPfalzer) reported from Kensington, England

    @Mike_Randazzo1 @virginmedia Thought about it, but it’s most likely a management directive, nothing will happen. All I want is my package, set up the new flat, and not hear about them until we cancel again, hopefully last time.

  • Andrew007Uk Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    After a mammoth session on the phone to 6 of your departments to arrange interim broadband given your service failed in Nov. & won't be fixed to March I spoke to a helpful chap called David in the Customer Care Dept before I was cut off. Can you help reconnect me @virginmedia 🙏🏻

  • DazzlingHamster Dr Mantis Toboggan M.D. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 (@DazzlingHamster) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia Your status and service checkers aren’t working. There is clearly a problem, somebody please offer assistance and not meaningless and not working URLs

  • DazzlingHamster Dr Mantis Toboggan M.D. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 🇪🇺 (@DazzlingHamster) reported from Merton, England

    @virginmedia is there a fault in the SW20 area? No internet since last night and your service checker is not working either.

  • andy_s_battle Andrew Battle (@andy_s_battle) reported from East Ham, England

    @virginmedia Just spouting corporate line does not improve the situation. No advanced notice, no resolution to problem, appointment missed, but if I am not here for a visit I am fined. This is very one sided for a service that has other companies wanting the business

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • DavidGaleUK David Gale (@DavidGaleUK) reported

    @jimconey You think Virgin Media has problem? Check out response from Ofgem confirming Eon has suffered catastrophic data loss. Both Eon and Ombudsman caught trying to conceal data loss + inaccuracies of account data. Eon has abandoned its in-house systems but the fraud continues

  • dXbriscoe David Briscoe (@dXbriscoe) reported

    @virginmedia So what are you going to do about it? That’s the issue. An apology is worthless at this stage.

  • EmmaRoland3 Emma Roland (@EmmaRoland3) reported from Firhouse, Leinster

    @virginmedia I joined you for a €30pm deal. You just sent me a bill for €239 this month. I contacted your customer care team about this 2 weeks ago and it’s still not solved. How dare you... sort it out today. Don’t ever attempt to go near my bank account for an unagreed amount

  • JoshKenny95 Kenny 🤪 #BlackLivesMatter (@JoshKenny95) reported

    @virginmedia Yes and it was never addressed. Raised the complaint 3 times now and I haven’t received a call back or any follow up on either time. I rang today and got told a manager would call back in 2/3 hrs... that was 5 hours ago at 10am this morning..

  • AlanHill92 alanthetaxidriver (@AlanHill92) reported

    @virginmedia Any updates on the fault in the G82 area. Phone line still not working

  • George_AdamG Adam (@George_AdamG) reported

    @virginmedia There are no issues in my area but my wired connections are crap as well.

  • dovermonkey Kirk Hughes (@dovermonkey) reported

    @virginmedia Not that I was aware of. I've asked them to pull the call last Friday but being told conflicting information. 72 hours to pull and 30 to 40 days lol. Why was the complaint resolved if not resolved to a satisfactory level for both parties.

  • MRed78 Devils Advocate (@MRed78) reported

    @virginmedia You con my mam into a package she doesn't want & then expect me to sit on hold while I talk to a 'kin bot? Top customer service!

  • w123ckc Chris Chatfield (@w123ckc) reported

    @virginmedia It is now my 13th day of having no broadband or TV. I have finally been able to talk to a manager, who couldn’t re-connect me. My problem has now been “escalated” to a senior manager. Again nothing has been done or resolved. #virginmediauseless

  • gwfvrowell Garry Voss (@gwfvrowell) reported

    @virginmedia So what about intermittent service which is just has problematic? Or extremely low speeds, some days I am getting latency in the 100s of ms
