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

  • gsolomonphoto Garry Solomon Photography (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia chat service is down, no one to answer technical calls, a website that sends you round and round in circles! Is it at all possible that someone is still working who can solve my broadband issues before I cancel my direct debit?

  • Bobby_Dazzler68 Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia hi, do you have online chat available for problem solving?

  • gsolomonphoto Garry Solomon Photography (@gsolomonphoto) reported from Rushden, England

    @virginmedia My broadband fluctuates, but even when I’m getting above 200mbps WiFi , my Ethernet to the back of the house is 5-10mbps. I’ve done all your tests, but read lots of comments that this is due to the virgin hub. Can you find a solution so I can work from home please!

  • erikalesleyneal erika lesley neale (@erikalesleyneal) reported from Rothwell, England

    @virginmedia Hi I was wanting to cancel my order because I have changed my mind

  • Bobby_Dazzler68 Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, have done that, found a blackspot but won't let me order, refers to online bot chat that cannot help either. Can't get through via phone

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I have sent text messages to the number you provided on here, and I last spoke to several customer representatives on 26th January, then asked to speak to a manager, was put on hold for 50 minutes, then you cut me off/the line went dead. So, nothing has been resolved.

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia Tried this 3 times today. It will not submit my complaint. Very handy.

  • stephylouise Steph (@stephylouise) reported from Desborough, England

    @virginmedia why is it impossible to get to speak to an actual human being? We've been trying to get through to cancel our landline for months and get nowhere. Led round in circles until eventually the call cuts off. Can anyone help?

  • SophieRebecca93 Sophie Stewart (@SophieRebecca93) reported from Corby, England

    Really @virginmedia been on hold for 40mins for you to terminate the call due to “technical difficulties”! What surely you knew that when we called! Your customer care is shocking 😡

  • RichardPFisher Richard Fisher (@RichardPFisher) reported from Wilby, England

    Yay! @vmbusiness has **** the bed once again, third time in a week. Going to have to put a smart switch on it so I can remote reset the router.

  • stephylouise Steph (@stephylouise) reported from Desborough, England

    @virginmedia Would we be able to write to that address if we only wanted to cancel our landline? We currently have a TV package which we want to keep.

  • Privatenugget2 Privatenugget (@Privatenugget2) reported from Irthlingborough, England

    @tiff_tv @TalkTalk That's not bad tbh i have rung virgin media been on the hold for over an hour then they just cut me off🙄🙄🙄

  • Bobby_Dazzler68 Darren Carson (@Bobby_Dazzler68) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Basically on 500mb package but getting below half of that speed. Tv service poor as on demand constantly drops out, ave twice during a film.

  • cazzlar1985 Cazzlar!! (@cazzlar1985) reported from Burton Latimer, England

    @virginmedia @peterlealfc That link doesn't work!

  • liamtheking Liam King UK (@liamtheking) reported from Oadby and Wigston, England

    @virginmedia Horrific broadband speeds, and even worse customer experience, being passed from pillar to post, continually repeating security questions, going through the story each time and being disconnected thrice in one day, without a single courtesy call back. No worries, BT’s gain

  • Just_Woodbridge Justine (@Just_Woodbridge) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @virginmedia I thought my issue was resolved yesterday, but today I’ve had an email saying something different. I text the number again, at 11.28am, the bot replied but nothing since then?!

  • Wee_Linz_ 👸🏻 Queen Wee Linz 👸🏻 (@Wee_Linz_) reported from Corby, England

    @virginmedia Hi, as a family, all 4 of us are having problems with the mobile network. This has been ongoing for a few weeks and despite assurances that the problem is being fixed, it clearly isn't. This is frustrating and we are not getting the service we're paying for.

  • trushar108 Trushār Patel (@trushar108) reported from Wellingborough, England

    @Virgin @virginmedia @richardbranson Dear Virgin Media, unlawful pretending fraudulent callers keep ringing us about a nonsense router signal issue and hacked IP network? Can you please implement preventative measures to protect vulnerable community members living in the UK. Thx

  • toneconsultancy Priti Joshi (@toneconsultancy) reported from Oadby and Wigston, England

    @virginmedia we have been getting intermittent WiFi and issues with security for the last 4 weeks . What is the problem ? Le24fy

  • markaugustus99 Mark Augustus (@markaugustus99) reported from Burton Latimer, England

    @virginmedia I have been having broadband issues for over a month. I have been on hold to the call centre for over 45 minutes now trying to get help. Is that normal waiting time?

  • jacub32 Jake scullion (@jacub32) reported

    Ive retweeted loads of people co plaining about @virginmedia and could have carried on for hours! Absolute worst internet providers out there! Our internet very rarely works and they do absolutely nothing other than try sell us boosters and say “we never guaranteed the speeds”

  • vik_c Victoria (@vik_c) reported

    @virginmedia I understand mistakes happen, but when this is frustrating enough for a customer, to have no one with a sense of urgency to put things right is frustrating to say the least.

  • onearmedjohn Onearmedjohn (@onearmedjohn) reported from Gillingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had two lengthy phone calls with your ‘technical support’ people; it briefly got quicker then stopped working completely. On their instructions I’ve changed some settings on my router which apparently may take 48 hours to fully take effect…

  • Frankel_20 Frankel (@Frankel_20) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for your prompt reply John, the automated service explained the issue in my area and expected fix deadline. An explanation is almost as pleasant as the fix itself. Great service, I appreciate that.

  • Vipzrs Cam 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@Vipzrs) reported

    @virginmedia yeah ive tried its multiple times and just doesnt work.

  • KimeCurran Kim Curran (@KimeCurran) reported

    My @virginmedia has been down all day and it says till 10.30. No TV to unwind after long day. 😭😭😭

  • ParattiNo1 Lesley (@ParattiNo1) reported

    @virginmedia NTL Yes and its still not working on the computer, phone or your website. Which is atrocious.

  • jacub32 Jake scullion (@jacub32) reported

    If anyone is thinking about a broadband provider stay as far away from @virginmedia as possible! The broadband constantly goes off and all they say is its all good in their end! I pay £41 a month and it doesnt work! Absolute shocking provider! Never again am i going with these

  • alexmurray12 Alex Murray (@alexmurray12) reported

    @virginmedia Checked all the ‘services’ you have to offer for testing issues and they all say there is no issue! All the while my internet is dropping out every 2minutes! Reset the router, turned it on and off again, all the same result - terrible internet.

  • JustSniperSal SAL (@JustSniperSal) reported

    @virginmedia The WiFi booster is faulty. I’ve been told that it’s not your problem and I must pay more money to get the newer version as this ones discontinued! I’ve only had it for 2-3 months!
