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

  • HiDee_Lo Dennis C Chansa ( Dee-Lo) (@HiDee_Lo) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia is this the kind of bad service we now have to pay for? Charging us fibre prices but getting slow speed, can’t call the contact centre. Internet as slow as a sloth in TN233JA area This is very bad service

  • TheTestingMuse David Williams (@TheTestingMuse) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Having just looked at model photos it's the Hub 4 I have, set to Modem Mode. The connection drop problem is with the Hub itself (the solid white ring light then starts glowing to show it is "connecting"), so the connection drop affects both wired and wireless connections.

  • IamSarahJayJay SarahJay (@IamSarahJayJay) reported from Canterbury, England

    @virginmedia I forgot to screenshot it today.. But yeah it was showing up. Can't seem to get back on the account atm it's like it was down for maintenance. Will try later. Defo something on there though.

  • IamSarahJayJay SarahJay (@IamSarahJayJay) reported from Canterbury, England

    2. @virginmedia @VMHelpDesk no idea how to get into the account and claim it!! Can't seem to find my own account under either of my usual emails. Obvs I would like the credit as cash as I no longer hold a virgin media account so hoping customer service can help me locate it

  • JoTreCanterbury JannerJo 🦠💉💥 (@JoTreCanterbury) reported from Canterbury, England

    @tryingattimes @virginmedia 100% correct took ages to cancel my 80yo mum's service when my dad got vascular dementia. They sent me all sorts of patronising messages on here. All designed to extract money from vulnerable people. STEER WELL CLEAR!

  • ElaneSlade elane slade (@ElaneSlade) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia can anyone in the UK retentions department actually listen to a call and call a customer back? I've tried calling this morning to check progress after more than 2 weeks and the people answering the phone can't understand what I'm asking I've been hung up on 3 times

  • PinkSpag_Emily Pink Spaghetti PA Services Maidstone & S/Bourne (@PinkSpag_Emily) reported from Sittingbourne, England

    @virginmedia Morning! Still bad but worse on certain channels 😩

  • chinwah33 Braxton hix (@chinwah33) reported from Ashford, England

    Well laters #virginmedia I will be off to sky when the contracts up next month. Terrible service, no TV again today and yet you still call me everyday to get me to take out another contract.

  • Andyelufc AndyEpps (@Andyelufc) reported from Ashford, England

    with @virginmedia tv stations being down for most of the day apparently , I'm just glad that @LUFC are not on the box tonight.🤬⚽💛💙 #wouldnotbehappy

  • Chataranga Martin Holme (@Chataranga) reported from Kennington, England

    @virginmedia on top of hundreds of spam junk emails we have umpteen scam calls on the landline. Very day I am getting increasingly saddened by Virgin Media’s inability to stop scammers and spam flooding my system. Very expensive terrible service

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Yes have posted in forums - no response, called, live chats, SMS. full works. Engineers even told us prob is not at our property as far back as Oct/Nov and neighbours have same issue but nothing is done, call centre staff are rude and treat you with contempt. Ref is C0912202465

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Would rather you fixed the problem.

  • Chataranga Martin Holme (@Chataranga) reported from Kennington, England

    @virginmedia do you have ANY customer service people working? I have tried ringing you for the last 24 hours and constantly get a ‘ring back later’ message. The service these days is appalling. I sent a tweet yesterday that mentioned Amazon and they replied to me. Virgin didn’t!

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia December. Official complaint prior to that. Please read back through your thread, the broken promises and the lies then come back with a proposal to resolve.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Just wondered if I’ve waited long enough yet for anyone @virginmedia to care enough to respond to me? Still no forum response. Still not complaint response. Still line issues. Just lies from your SM team.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Still no response. 19 days and counting 🙄. It’s clear you’ve been lying to get rid of me. What are you going to do to resolve this issue before I contact ombudsman? A suggestion: you arrange for someone to contact me. By now it should be clear to you your support doesn’t work.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Your agent told me 72hrs. But then I was also told if I post on the forum I will get support. But we can all see how that has panned out. Just. Fix. The. Problem. Why is this so difficult? I guess copy/paste apologies are just cheaper than dealing with the real issues.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Last week after your call centre agent refused to escalate the 2months of issues highlighted in this thread.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia I get that. But several people on there have logged issues. I haven’t used that tool but try it. But issue is defo at your end as between outages speed/latency is brilliant and other people have same issue on street. That’s why I’m so keen to fix not leave as usually gr8 service.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Yes dropouts Ethernet and WiFi. To be clear that message was not our engineer. Just proof prob is beyond our home. That neighbourhood thread is 14 comments long! We’ve had 2 engineers out. Cable replaced and hub replaced. Problem persists. 4 dropouts this eve alone.

  • arnie1984 James Arnold (@arnie1984) reported

    @virginmedia It's a joke though, we pay for a service and it doesn't even run properly. I'd love to say it's only a one off scenario, but it's happened more this year than others. I'd swap provider if I could but Sky in this area just doesn't reach the same level as you when working.

  • arnie1984 James Arnold (@arnie1984) reported

    @virginmedia a little unhappy that my Virgin Media services have been down from around 0730 this morning and it shows it's not going to be resolved till tomorrow afternoon. My postcode is TW19 7HY. A little unhappy as we've been unable to use services we pay for due to WiFi.

  • ExN_SKRT Adam Damarell (@ExN_SKRT) reported

    @virginmedia 4 times in 6 days that both broadband and Tv have been down for extended periods of time. What on earth is going on at Virgin media? Happy to take my £70+ a month, will be claiming compensation.

  • LornieWillins Lorna Willins (@LornieWillins) reported

    @virginmedia please answer your phone I need help with my virgin media app

  • gary_mortland Gary Mortland (@gary_mortland) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin media broadband is useless. I’ve been without service since Saturday and still not sorted🙈

  • Farke_In_El Yorkshire Sherpa (@Farke_In_El) reported

    @virginmedia I'm specifically talking about the SkySports app being down?

  • remysosav 🇯🇲 Big Savo 🇧🇧 (@remysosav) reported

    Virgin media playing up once again lol. Cant even do my ******* course unless i burn my data. @virginmedia you lot are so absolutely ****.

  • DerekMo04274549 Well Fan (@DerekMo04274549) reported

    @virginmedia I urgently need help with virgin media services. Your “help” functions and automated phone lines make it impossible to speak to a human being.

  • Farke_In_El Yorkshire Sherpa (@Farke_In_El) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. Missed the cricket yesterday cos I couldn't sign into SkySports. Still the same today. Any estimated fix time as I think it might be a national issue and not just me.

  • Kemkerr Kirstie (@Kemkerr) reported

    @virginmedia Internet justcwent down. Tried using my virgin media status but got an error msg. Is there an outage in the SL4 area?
