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

  • Craigsheesh Craig Taylor (@Craigsheesh) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia had an absolutely waste of time phone call with Jay from your customer service today. Been with yourselves for 9 years and he was not prepared to assist me in the slightest to try and work out a better deal. Clearly customer loyalty means nothing to you.

  • nina95020657 nina (@nina95020657) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @riddmj @virginmedia I’ve also tried making a complaint online and it won’t send that either so you can’t do anything online or on the phone so if you cut people of what you going to do then just apologise. Because it’s not fair if you do actually do that.

  • Rebecca_GMFC Rebecca Thompson (@Rebecca_GMFC) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia ridiculous service, constant no internet at home and affects more than one of us!!! Someone dm me and get this sorted, absolutely fed up

  • robmcg6 Robert McGowan🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@robmcg6) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia shocking service,on hold for over 30 minutes to speak to someone about my tv package.then they hang up. Time for a change after more than 10 years you would think they value your business 😡😡😡😡😡😡

  • Rebecca_GMFC Rebecca Thompson (@Rebecca_GMFC) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia @stumcc761 Service is always shocking🥱

  • BarrosLXXXIX Lee Barros (Fotze) (@BarrosLXXXIX) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia Can I change my direct debit date, I have had no response from the text message service and calling up is pointless as they are closed. If not I'll just cancel my Direct Debit and pay you on my new chosen date.

  • Rebecca_GMFC Rebecca Thompson (@Rebecca_GMFC) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia @stumcc761 Service is always shocking, fed up with it 😒🥱

  • Miss_Grundy94 Miss Grundy (@Miss_Grundy94) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia my internet and TV connection did not work at all the full day yesterday and it is still not fixed. Could you advise me what the issue is and when it will be fixed please? G83 area in Scotland.

  • M1SSes0 Lauren (@M1SSes0) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia The service page is unavailable! It’s giving an error message. And I cannot face an hour on hold on the phone again.

  • bolton2710 Steven (@bolton2710) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia two days in a row broadbands gone down.

  • EwanMcElroy Ewan McElroy (@EwanMcElroy) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    Virgin media has to be the worst internet out there

  • Miss_Grundy94 Miss Grundy (@Miss_Grundy94) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia Yes it said there was an issue and a technician would fix it at 3 separate times yesterday and it’s still not fixed today. This happens a lot yet we still pay our full bill, it’s not ideal.

  • Tumsh41 Kevin (@Tumsh41) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @Aaroonio @virginmedia Not working this morning here.

  • Miss_Grundy94 Miss Grundy (@Miss_Grundy94) reported from Alexandria, Scotland

    @virginmedia any idea when the network will be available in the G83 area again? Our TV and internet have been off all day.

  • Tumsh41 Kevin (@Tumsh41) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia After 40 minutes our television service via @virginmedia was restored. It was quite a lengthy update though

    @virginmedia I’m doing it on my mobile via my mobile network

  • M1SSes0 Lauren (@M1SSes0) reported from Greenock, Scotland

    @virginmedia 18.40. I got a text saying service was fixed and if I was still having issues to switch it off for 30 minutes, I left it off for 45.

  • EstebanRum Stephen (@EstebanRum) reported from Dumbarton, Scotland

  • Lennon068 lennon33 (@Lennon068) reported

    @virginmedia internet down, rang service number. HUB fine, now been told to wait 24hrs. Why is it going to take 24hrs, also why does your broadband status say there are no know issues when clearly there is.

  • afnw35342 Alex Fleming (@afnw35342) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia Trying to sign up for Volt but you’re weblinks send me in circles & you’re digital assistants are no help. What else can I try?

  • tailsinge Sen 🌻 (@tailsinge) reported

    Virgin Media doing work that takes the internet down, during work hours from 9-3, without notification. Its not like a ton of people work from home at this point!! Worst UK ISP honestly.

  • j1ggy_j jiggy jai (@j1ggy_j) reported

    @virginmedia Also what you forgot to mention is that if I call the 0345 number from a virgin landline it’s chargeable. Which I found out at my own expense. These issues were previously reported. What more am I ment to do ? Your company has really dragged me down.

  • John_Ogden John Ogden (@John_Ogden) reported

    Hey @virginmedia if there are no issues in my area, why don’t I have internet & why are there 2 virgin media guys ripping cables out the box on the street? 😡🤬

  • GorillaHeadz Gorilla Headz (@GorillaHeadz) reported

    @virginmedia Terrible. Still down. Got a meeting in 2 hours that I’ve had to cancel so now losing money too.

  • AdamJukes Adam Jukes (@AdamJukes) reported

    @virginmedia What’s the point of providing a Twitter service if you are then unable to have the right people check/report potential system issues which affect your company’s income?
