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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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?

  • 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?!

  • 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🙄🙄🙄

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 😡

  • 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?

  • _dannygreen Danny Green (@_dannygreen) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down in PO5 in Portsmouth. Your own status check service doesn't even seem to work either. What's going on.

  • rachee_lou Rachel (@rachee_lou) reported

    @virginmedia No I haven't, I will do that but i shouldnt have to resubmit my 3 complaints - can you just fix the website please?

  • PC75UK Paul Cooke (@PC75UK) reported

    @virginmedia I renewed for 1gb broadband that is worse than the slow speed. I also agreed £49.50 and you gave me free SIM card (which I won’t be using but that was the deal) I now see you are charging me £49.50 on one DD and £10 for o2 on another DD. The sim was meant to be free.

  • avenger_grey Jedi Avenger 🖤✊🏿🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦♿💛 (@avenger_grey) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi constantly drops, at least once a day. I'm paying you nearly £70 a month for high speed but it never gets any where near it. I'm paying for a service I'm not getting. Can't get through to tech support.

  • Mike87794888 Smiley Mike (@Mike87794888) reported

    Can someone from Virgin Media please contact me. My contract is about to rise astronomically and I want to cancel my renewal. I can't get hold of anyone via the website. Cheers!

  • Ronkabet Ronkabet (@Ronkabet) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, usual issue i get every year where our wifi stops working properly. Can you send a new router please. I have rebooted/checked firmware and changed channels. It's a known issue. What details do you need?

  • iTechPro2012 Gareth Sibthorpe (@iTechPro2012) reported

    @virginmedia Ok that’s fine, i’ll give your customer services another call and explain i’ve spoken to you about it.

  • RodriguezMayn J Rodriguez (@RodriguezMayn) reported

    @virginmedia After you announced the fault. You scheduled it for today as the problem was meant to be fixed yesterday. Apparently it's going to be fixed on the 19th now

  • radioasahartz Chris Bolus (Radio Asahartz) (@radioasahartz) reported

    @andyfinlay07 @virginmedia Trouble is, no other provider can even match that half speed in this area. #rockandahardplace

  • Jessica42437038 Jessica (@Jessica42437038) reported
