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

  • M0BPQ Steve Bunting (@M0BPQ) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia Sadly the service is rubbish again today after a couple of ok days.

  • M0BPQ Steve Bunting (@M0BPQ) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @HavocTechie @virginmedia Thanks. Router has been rebooted and factory reset. I installed a wired Lan in lockdown 1 to solve poor wifi but unplugging that switch and going straight into the router doesn’t work either. Now no service at all. 😩Again.

  • andylockran Andy 🏊🚴🏻🏃 (@andylockran) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia my internet appears to be down, and your status page appears to suggests it’s up. Any idea if there an issue? E11

  • shaomeeng Shaomeeng (@shaomeeng) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia Your agents promised respectively on feb 13 and mar 6 to get back via writing; sadly I’ve heard nothing from them. You are unreliable and time wasting and now would cut off the service again due to another ‘outstanding’ bill

  • andypurbrick Huey Morgan Gluten Freeman (@andypurbrick) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia It now says that there's a known fault in my area that will be fixed today. So, why did Mark say it was planned maintenance to be resolved on 24th and why wouldn't he share the number without closing my complaint?

  • andypurbrick Huey Morgan Gluten Freeman (@andypurbrick) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia I was told by Mark in your call centre in the Philippines that this was planned maintenance and my connection will be down until 24th - I wasn't informed this was going to happen. I need broadband to work from home 🤷

  • shaomeeng Shaomeeng (@shaomeeng) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia Apart from saying sorry, can you genuinely do something to help customers ?

  • M0BPQ Steve Bunting (@M0BPQ) reported from Walthamstow, England

    I’ve had awful internet speeds for a couple of weeks from @virginmedia . (<10MB on a 200MB plan) Their call centre has said this is due to an upgrade that will take a week to complete. Which ISP do I move to?

  • casterazucar Caster Azucar (@casterazucar) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia hi team, after the latest router update, none of the devices in the house can hold a consistent signal, constantly getting full signal with an exclamation (!) - any ideas on what's going on?

  • andypurbrick Huey Morgan Gluten Freeman (@andypurbrick) reported from Walthamstow, England

    Morning @virginmedia, your famously unreliable but expensive broadband service is down in Walthamstow (again)

  • andypurbrick Huey Morgan Gluten Freeman (@andypurbrick) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia He also refused to give me another Virgin Media telephone phone number to contact unless I closed a complaint that I wanted to make about this

  • M0BPQ Steve Bunting (@M0BPQ) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia The VM app says no service problems but I have 8MB download tonight on a 200MB service. Lots of disconnects today too. Calling 150 results in them telling me to wait for it to get better.

  • shaomeeng Shaomeeng (@shaomeeng) reported from Walthamstow, England

    VirginMedia used to have an executive team which were willing put things right by hearing customer complaints, investigating them, and providing fair solutions. Is that team still available? @virginmedia

  • shaomeeng Shaomeeng (@shaomeeng) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @BruceBa06826486 @virginmedia Why would virginMedia CEO hire the bullying to treat the customers like this ?!

  • lotfredjanlee Lee Gildersleve (@lotfredjanlee) reported from Watton at Stone, England

    @virginmedia my WiFi is so bad that come 7pm we have to switch it if on our phones and use our data. I’ve just tried to book a service call only to be told I can’t as they are doing work on our area and it will automatically get cancelled. It’s been bad for a year now!!!!

  • KBHeadteacher Keith Barr (@KBHeadteacher) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia any chance of connectivity @KenderSchool ... ? Any help would be welcomed, please...

  • andypurbrick Huey Morgan Gluten Freeman (@andypurbrick) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @virginmedia How can I speak to someone in the UK to make a complaint? Worth noting I'm out of contract and can switch away from Virgin anytime I like

  • tufnelljimmy James Anderson 🏛 (@tufnelljimmy) reported from Islington, England

    @virginmedia I’m afraid your service status is wrong. There is a problem and my broadband speed is a fraction of what I pay for.

  • shaomeeng Shaomeeng (@shaomeeng) reported from Walthamstow, England

    @BruceBa06826486 @virginmedia Really cannot understand why virginMedia has selected to lower down its customer service quality? What did it get, a cheaper labour ??

  • AdiStaempfli Adi Staempfli (@AdiStaempfli) reported from London, England

    I understand it takes time to replace fibre optics. I don‘t understand why @virginmedia sends out messages that are plain wrong. My connection is not working, has not been working ever since Tuesday evening. Is this to avoid having to pay back customers?

  • _woody4444 Antony (@_woody4444) reported

    @virginmedia Tried all that it’s an absolute disgrace loyal customer for years then treated like crap your only interested in getting paid other than that your not bothered I want calling from the uk by someone who speaks English is that too much to bloody ask for

  • AndreaSMaguire Andrea S Maguire (@AndreaSMaguire) reported

    @virginmedia I had no tv at all since around 11 am today and internet is playing up all afternoon. No way to contact you by phone as your lines are busy. How long do you plan to keep your customers without service?

  • KroniiiX KroniX (@KroniiiX) reported

    @virginmedia I demand compensation on my next bill. Hundreds of tv channels not working and my TiVo box won't get an internet connection

  • revie1973 Julie 🏆💛💙🤍 (@revie1973) reported

    @hockeypucky @GBarfoot1 @virginmedia It’s appalling service full stop! Won’t be renewing my contract

  • Gigglingchick Lindsey Stevens (@Gigglingchick) reported

    @virginmedia outage link says channels like itv, BBC1 have been restored but I have no channels to watch on my tivo box & it won't connect to the Internet either. It just says "failed whilst negotiating" it's very frustrating seeing as this has been going on for 6 hours now. 😕

  • SefaMelamet Sefa Melamet (@SefaMelamet) reported

    @virginmedia TV service getting worse by the hour @virginmedia now only BBC1 available . Working TV channels decreasing by the hour. No On Demand, no Catch-up tv etc When can I expect normal TV service to resume @virginmedia The afternoon is virtually over

  • Robwhitt07 Rob Whittington (@Robwhitt07) reported

    @virginmedia The service from you is always terrible. Our Wi-Fi is continually dropping out all the time, tv packages are massively over priced. Will 100% be moving to Sky or BT in the new year!!
