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

  • _JennyMcKiernan Jennifer McKiernan (@_JennyMcKiernan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Your complaints team appears to have lied to me. They've failed to register my formal complaint about harassment & what appears to be a criminal data breach. This is all over a router that was returned a year ago. Can you help?

  • mfearonmusic Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I called again on Saturday to resolve this again and I was told this was a crazy amount of discount and that any TL or manager would find it difficult to approve. After hours on the phone and all Managment unable to help, I’ve now been advised to make a complaint.

  • mfearonmusic Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Then I noticed that I was missing the children’s channels. I called and got it sorted but I was told the new bill will show as £150 odd but not to worry a manager will be applying discount, that never happened.

  • jazzyrath3 Jazzyspurs (@jazzyrath3) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia your broadband service has been s**t the last 4 days in the BT8 area. Any chance of a fix as I am trying to work from home and having to use hotspot on my phone to ensure I can stay online. A trip to BT when my contract is up.

  • DrRichCollins Richard Collins (@DrRichCollins) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia hi, how do I escalate a complaint through customer service please? New service connection as of Monday... tv service still not working despite 2 calls (and v long waits) to customer service number. Not happy and considering cancellation.

  • seansteenson Sean Steenson (@seansteenson) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Ive had some scary experiences with customer service but as always @virginmedia always take the Oscar for worst customer service performance. #virginmedia

  • bobobalti Bobo Balti 🎩 (@bobobalti) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @br_Fk5 @virginmedia Having same issue with Sky at in laws.

  • Pascalstil Pascal Stil (@Pascalstil) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia The housemate who's connection it is has been in contact many times, apparently on Monday he was told permission was needed from the account holder of the new connection, who jas not been contacted about that, and it also sounds too stupid to be true

  • Pascalstil Pascal Stil (@Pascalstil) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Nice nonsense answer. One of our connections here in the house has been down for two weeks because a second connection was added, this ome is all on you

  • DrRichCollins Richard Collins (@DrRichCollins) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Thank you, but any chance you might actually try to resolve the issue rather than just redirect me to policies?

  • deewoodvalemufc David Simpson (@deewoodvalemufc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia your broadband is a heap of **** . Cakesmackers

  • DAVIDBUZZ2904 DAVIDBUZZ2904 (@DAVIDBUZZ2904) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia But you haven’t offered me a better deal I’ve contacted you and nothing but if I leave you and join back I can get the deal it’s a bit stupid I might just go to someone else if you can’t price match your own deal

  • ianmoran Ian Moran (@ianmoran) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    So is YouTube buffering a thing now ? Running Speedtest on my Apple TV i get 330/40 with Virgin Media and yet pretty much all videos will initially have buffering issues

  • DAVIDBUZZ2904 DAVIDBUZZ2904 (@DAVIDBUZZ2904) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia So if I left virgin mobile I could get the deal but it I stayed a virgin i whould have to pay more why can’t you price match yourself it’s stupid when I can go to a price comparison website and get cheaper for the same company

  • DrRichCollins Richard Collins (@DrRichCollins) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Two calls to 150 left me with little confidence that issue would be resolved. Neither seemed to know what was going on... VM have my number so I would appreciate if someone with some technical knowledge could call me. You’re currently not providing the service I’m paying for

  • mfearonmusic Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    Imagine being miss sold a product and no manager can resolve the issue, even after a month!, shocking @virginmedia #virginmedia

  • mfearonmusic Michael Fearon (@mfearonmusic) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia And I was also advised if it wasn’t resolved soon I should show the contract agreed to ofcom. Hopefully you can fix this or escalate it, thanks.

  • lilmissymoo90 Lauren Blair♥ (@lilmissymoo90) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia how does one get a newer router does one have to leave and come back in the future ? My wifi is awful just ordered wifi extenders but we get like 35mbs upstairs on a 350mbs package :)

  • deewoodvalemufc David Simpson (@deewoodvalemufc) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

  • JaneHolohan Jane Emir Holohan (@JaneHolohan) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

  • peejaydee70 Paul Docherty (@peejaydee70) reported

    @virginmedia Are you threatening me now? This is intolerable. I am being passed from pillar to post. I have been round the loop twice already today. 'It's the Movers you need.' 'No, sorry, we're the Movers, we can't help you with that.' The links are worthless, they lead only to the phone no.

  • jadegarratt1 Jade Garratt (@jadegarratt1) reported

    @virginmedia I've tried via another browser and I can't log into the account because I don't know my password (this is what I'm trying to reset!) - at this rate I'm going to need to just cancel the direct debit as I can't get hold of you to update it. Please could you help?

  • GoatGoodman22 Saul “The Goat” Goodman (@GoatGoodman22) reported

    @virginmedia not gonna lie, right now your broadband sucks. Absolute pants.

  • SimonJo85317638 Simon Johnson (@SimonJo85317638) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, but whenever I try to get rid of it they tell me it's cheaper to keep it than a package without it. I'm paying £20 odd for nothing. If you can help me reduce I would be grateful.

  • flynnthedoglong David Long (@flynnthedoglong) reported

    @virginmedia No. Given up. WhatsApp was no use either. Now back on the phone attempting to cancel Virgin media. No doubt will take me (you) all afternoon

  • rickross1212 Rick Ross (@rickross1212) reported

    @virginmedia No I never received email that complaint was logged 🤯 he gave me the reference number which I quoted further up! It’s also been over 48 hours since complaint we raised 🤯reference c-19062234

  • TheGuillo1 TheGuillo (@TheGuillo1) reported

    @virginmedia They’ve had technical issues for two days now… I would like to speak with one of your team to ensure I’m not getting charged until the broadband is live because I don’t want to be paying for no service due to your chosen courier’s issues

  • CEOBLACKKINGS BLACK KINGS CLOTHING (@CEOBLACKKINGS) reported

    @virginmedia it is getting ridicules Wi-Fi down again!!

  • Mousse670277685 Mousse (@Mousse670277685) reported

    @virginmedia Ok I try this morning but they really didn’t understand what was the problem seem that I just waste time there is something else I can try to do

  • INEya_veganfood RJ Buddha (@INEya_veganfood) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @KarenWolman @virginmedia absolutely horrendous customer service.
