Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Edinburgh, Scotland

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

  • Graemereaper Ricky Goold (@Graemereaper) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia It seems that the issue already reported is to do with BBC Scotland HD, while my issue is that my signal on BBC1 HD keeps breaking up briefly every 30 seconds or so. It's mostly an audio drop out for a split second.

  • LTJ_79 Karan Lamb (@LTJ_79) reported from Mid Calder, Scotland

    @virginmedia I have tried to phone for technical help, sky sports channels not on other room boxes how is this fixed, I pay for full package 😠

  • Polybandit Beachboy (@Polybandit) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    It's ironic that Virgin Media manage to **** so many people at once. We just want internet.

  • kari_mcburnie Kari McBurnie (@kari_mcburnie) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @virginmedia The link is no good! I’m not a customer, please can someone message me for my contact details to get this rectified. This has been going on for months now.

  • Glam_Rach Rachael Santangelo (@Glam_Rach) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia She doesn't have another handset.. I'm at work and she told me when I called her. Her account is showing online as over the limit when she doesn't have one. And for the second time how would she speak to you over the phone with no service and I can't as not my account

  • Graemereaper Ricky Goold (@Graemereaper) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia So, I clicked on the link and it says only that there's an issue with BBC1 on On Demand or Catch-up. I try to run a test to show something else is wrong, but it produces an error message that something went wrong. It's been like that for months at least for that test page.

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    @virginmedia You need to increase the infrastructure in the area to address the problems, you’ve not needed to and got away with out it as there has never been competition until now

  • derek_forbo1974 Derek Forbes (@derek_forbo1974) reported from Kirkcaldy, Scotland

    @virginmedia left us hanging again with network failure! Moving from @sky was the worst mistake ever

  • bdavidhogg B. David Hogg (@bdavidhogg) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    We were given a four hour window from @virginmedia to come and fix our internet and they didn’t show. Unacceptable 😡

  • Scottyboy10 Scot Carrick (@Scottyboy10) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia broadband goes down all the time in EH11 postcode and now today tv signal is cutting out. Get it sorted!

  • piltonjambo Kenny (@piltonjambo) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Sorry but thats nonsense. Point out ANY existing customer changes/deals that save your loyal customers as much as new customers. I've been a customer for a long lot of years and have yet to see any customer loyalty being rewarded in the same way as these deals for new customers.

  • jillheartsnyc Jill Robb (@jillheartsnyc) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    Trying to watch via catch up on #stvplayer via @virginmedia #tivo is nothing short of torture. Super slow responses loading / between menus, buffering and you can’t fast forward adverts.. really need to catch up with the times, customer viewing habits and expectation

  • therealmuncie Graham Muncie (@therealmuncie) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    11 years a Sky customer not one issue, reluctantly have to cancel due to no signal in new house so set up with @virginmedia big mistake numerous errors and have had to contact them 4 times in 3 weeks. Customer service is null a complete shit show of a company!

  • gm8arv David Taylor (@gm8arv) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @bsamikey @virginmedia Yes, I had three weeks of very slow connection, all because they changed the head-end and never noticed older modems were also in need of changing! Great connection, lousy customer service.

  • andrew_kemp Andrew Kemp (@andrew_kemp) reported from Currie, Scotland

    Finally some competition to @virginmedia ‘a shocking internet service in my area! @bt_uk are finally doing #FttP been a long time coming... 14 years of mediocre internet service soon coming to an end!

  • NeilsonJustin Justin Neilson (@NeilsonJustin) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia very I happy with my current issue, I have been charged £80 for a contract with has been changed without my knowledge even though I spoke to an agent about 3 1/2 weeks ago and sorted my contract out and it was around £52 a month, now being told that no record of this

  • therealmuncie Graham Muncie (@therealmuncie) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    11 years a customer with Sky not one single issue, have to mobe to @virginmedia due to house move and have had to control them 4 times in 3 weeks. Shit show of a company.

  • kari_mcburnie Kari McBurnie (@kari_mcburnie) reported from Dunfermline, Scotland

    @virginmedia despite contacting you and reporting an issue, no one has contacted me. Your contractors have laid tar over my drains. This is now 8 weeks on and still no further forward.

  • jillheartsnyc Jill Robb (@jillheartsnyc) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia No I haven’t.. not sure much can be done. I can’t have a V6 box as you won’t allow me to use a different broadband service (I don’t pay for my current broadband..) so I’m stuck with aging technology of TiVo 😞

  • Turgenev_red Stan W Mack (@Turgenev_red) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland

    @virginmedia Hi, I am trying to logon to My Virgin Media, but my password is rejected. I then follow the reset password instructions -and enter the correct details for the secret question and then my account details - it gets rejected - can you please help

  • Di4nn3 Dianne Marchant (@Di4nn3) reported

    @virginmedia I have done that. I have spoken to the so called 'technical team' and they didn't even know about the issue or what I was talking about! Even though you play an automated message about complex on going issues. Nothing makes a difference.

    @virginmedia @SteveMo85793304 I have never received any notifications about issues, upgrades, etc. So to state you 'normally' do that is an out right lie!

  • mohawkal OnYourMarxGetSetGo! (@mohawkal) reported

    I'm paying @virginmedia a bunch of cash every month to provide a terrible and unreliable service. Their website doesn't work so I can't even get tech support. Can't wait to cancel.

  • Ang272 Ang (@Ang272) reported

  • hayleyed74 Hayley Edwards (@hayleyed74) reported

    @virginmedia internet used to be good but now you can just have 2 devices connected before it goes ridiculously slow or packs up altogether. Even worse when PS is connected!! Can’t use it in another room!! And why is the my #virginmedia not working?? Cant check my bill or anything

  • beasknees81 Donna B (@beasknees81) reported
