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

  • shackmeister Jeremy Shackleton (@shackmeister) reported from Croydon, England

    Dreadful sales call from @virginmedia. I need broadband, Sky & BT sports. Best deal requires having a load of unwanted extras apparently. No attempt to qualify my needs just clearly underpaid & commission desperate sales staff relying on a very bad script. #badservice #badselling

  • sospainter 🅿🅰🆄🅻 🅲🅾🅻🅻🅸🅴🆁 (@sospainter) reported from Whyteleafe, England

    @virginmedia I’m currently in a WhatsApp message with customer relations. I say that, they responded almost an hour ago.

  • KikassP 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.

  • muzzlejuice Steve wilson (@muzzlejuice) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia I'm trying to cancel as I'm moving and asked for confirmation which was not provided , the duty manager refused to speak with me when I tried to escalate

  • MSROPER10 S (@MSROPER10) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia Its magically started to work on ethernet but it's not giving out a WiFi signal? What is going on?

  • KikassP kikassPhotography(official) 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@KikassP) reported from London, England

    I've just had to suffer the same 4 songs,1 a poor cover of 'Where my Rosemary goes', on a loop, in 2,45 mins of waiting for @virginmedia to pick up. Within 10 mins of engineer fixing fault, its playing up again. Its also the end of my contract so I want to deal with it.

  • _RhysThorne Rhys (@_RhysThorne) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia have to be *the* most unreliable WiFi providers. 2 days with no internet and it’s still not working!

  • edshots the world's most copied Edward Moore (@edshots) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia failed to turn up today for the rearranged date they couldn't make two weeks ago. Just turn up tomorrow, I shouldn't need to call you as it'll be the Edward Moore in Croydon you let down today.

  • RobertSSmith66 Robert Smith (@RobertSSmith66) reported from Sutton at Hone, England

    @virginmedia any chance you can get your website to work? Change Package Chat does nothing! Links sent via mail do not work! Hyperlink sent by text doesn’t work! Call centre (working from home in India?) worse than useless! Ever heard of Customer Centric design? #Useless

  • KikassP kikassPhotography(official) 🇬🇧🇺🇦 (@KikassP) reported from London, England

    Please @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.

  • blue_murdock Ritch Zablan (@blue_murdock) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Hello.. wifi has been mostly down since last week. Been resetting several times a day. What is going on in SE22 area?

  • KnowlesyCPFC AK (@KnowlesyCPFC) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia your internet service has been atrocious in the CR8 area today. Any particular reason why?

  • pauldee74 Paul Dwyer (@pauldee74) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia @YodelOnline again day 3 of waiting for package spoke on webchat kept getting told its coming today + check tracking but tracking saying was delivered yesterday! another day wasted and taken off work yodel please help! I just need to know its coming today and a time

  • Veganforever67 Vegan join the PCS Union (@Veganforever67) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia I think I may actually be free from #Virginmedia at last other times I phoned up I got someone who just basically lied to me and extending my contract but this time I phoned up to cancel the contract and actually spoke to a very nice man so hopefully it's all done

  • feyipuk Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia I'm sorry for the two poor support staff who are trying to sell us new remote controls, routers and O2 sims - for more money - till we hit the nuclear option and say we're leaving to get what we're asking? We're loyal customers; why does it need to get to that?

  • pauldee74 Paul Dwyer (@pauldee74) reported from Grays, England

    @virginmedia hi nope just saying unavailable at this time which is no help! working all week so now have to plan to work from home incase the update is its coming tomorrow!!! was all going good just yodel a nightmare! when there updated at 21.15 last night it said 15.00! so lied there!

  • marianmartinart Marian Martin (@marianmartinart) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia the WiFi here has been awful for the last few months, we've been on the same router for twelve years now, is there anything you can do to help?

  • edshots the world's most copied Edward Moore (@edshots) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia The next slot was 28th April which I would not be in and so have taken 5th May. A loyal customer of about 12 years this a complete let down after arranging today from a previous cancellation on your company's part.

  • marianmartinart Marian Martin (@marianmartinart) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia It says there aren't any known issues but we have been struggling with it for the last few years - the service is just getting worse!

  • Veganforever67 Vegan join the PCS Union (@Veganforever67) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia #virginmedia spoke to a very nice lady today from Virgin media who wanted to know why I was leaving Virgin after 10 minutes of me complaining on how bad Virgin has been extending my contract and all sorts of things she did apologise but I said it wasn't her fault

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • JagReel JagReel (@JagReel) reported

    @vmbusiness Disappointed in the fact that I’ve sent a complaint nearly 2 weeks ago and yet to be followed up. Sent another complaint on Friday and again yet to hear a response. Also dm’d you and again no one followed up. Appalling service from @vmbusiness to customers!

  • LeeMathurin1 LeeMathurin (@LeeMathurin1) reported

    @virginmedia You guys told me to cancel the contract you guys couldn’t fix the cable in 30 days. That’s a fact. If I’m being told to find other services you think that would be fixed in 30 days??

  • Kaybeexx Kirsty Baxter (@Kaybeexx) reported

    @virginmedia Is anybody able to help I cannot get any internet other than 3G which is very slow. I had o2 before so know it’s not normally like this

  • BATC_London TonyM (@BATC_London) reported

    @virginmedia You know what I mean. Not a link to chat. A link here - for me to cancel my whole package.

  • VanyRichardson Vanessa Di Renzo (@VanyRichardson) reported

    I'd love to change broadband, but I haven't got a clue if another one is actually better. I'll have to think about that. Virgin media is ok, but it has its issues.

  • KMckee01 Dad (@KMckee01) reported

    @virginmedia It should be now. I had a 1.5hr call to virgin to try to fix this. They are investigating and trying to sort the issue. 3 calls, 2.5hrs so far, and nothing fixed.

  • EpletsEssex EP Lets #RejoinEU #FBPE 🇪🇺 #FBproEU (@EpletsEssex) reported

    Been trying to contact @virginmedia since 14:05 today - come on, you can't be that busy....Obviously customer care is of no concern...

  • DonnaAuthor Donna Douglas (@DonnaAuthor) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve told three people on the phone I want to cancel. I’ve put it in writing that I want to cancel. But instead I’ve been told I’m now on a more expensive package. I don’t understand. Why can’t I cancel at the end of the month?

  • DonnaAuthor Donna Douglas (@DonnaAuthor) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve given up calling after hanging on for 40 minutes each time. But I’ve just received an email to confirm that my £81 per month package has been changed to £104 per month! I just want to cancel from the end of the month. That’s all. Why is that so hard?

  • EamonnD94186497 Eamonn Doherty (@EamonnD94186497) reported
