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

  • andygent Andy Gent (@andygent) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia No, none at all, your service status has no known issues in the area. She has been on live chat with one of your colleagues and an engineer visit has been organised. Very frustrating as she is working from home

  • john_glos John Pickup (@john_glos) reported from Bishop's Cleeve, England

    @virginmedia Sadly no upgrades. Shame as my broadband etc I’ve been with for 26 years with few issues

  • ricoedd Neil Richardson (@ricoedd) reported from Cheltenham, England

    Virgin media broadband down again!!! #virginmedia. Need to move to other provider.

  • serebro333 K (@serebro333) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia hey, quick question, is your latest hub any better i.e. offers better strength/coverage than @SkyHelpTeam hub? I ask as we have two @ring doorbells some distance from the current hub and connections are awful. Contract almost up and it’s decision time 🤔. Thx

  • richkean Richard Kean (@richkean) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia I have tried to cancel as you are not at my new build and your staff have hung up on me 4 times. @BBCWatchdog please help me. I’ve heard virgin are difficult to get away from.

  • FasbytesReality 𝗙𝗮𝘀𝗯𝘆𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 (@FasbytesReality) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia Doh just booked a technician and the status page now updated to say there is a service area fault . Do I need to cancel the technician ? Or will that happen automatically?

  • Davinci9999C Dave.C 🏴‍☠️#FBPE #Rejoin (@Davinci9999C) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia More.. every time.she.calls she has to explain it over and over. No one seems capable of recording the issue and passing it to someone who can sort it out. It is stopping her access her social media as the email if linked. Cannot see incoming Bill's etc.

  • maiellamipiace maiella (@maiellamipiace) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    Oh @virginmedia why bother sending emails with customer satisfaction surveys attached when you have zero interest in taking any notice of what your customers think? If you had, you'd listen to our complaints instead of squeezing as many £££ as possible out of us before we cancel!

  • Foxelms Margaret Joseph 💙 (@Foxelms) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia Thanks! Working in the garden at the moment but will try later. It’s very frustrating to be moved fro operative to operative and then disconnected. Probably because they couldn’t deal with the issue. Not good for your image.

  • Hannah_S39 Hannah ❤️ (@Hannah_S39) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia need to sort out their signal issues because I’ve practically had no WiFi on and off for like 3 weeks what a joke! My dads not happy when trying to work from home 🙄

  • wild_original Original Wild (@wild_original) reported from Churchdown, England

    @virginmedia Had an email to say my Netflix A/C has been cancelled even though I’ve paid you my subscription - no one on live chat for almost an hour now to help - anyone there?!

  • the_fbpe Lord Lefty cultural attachè for Gloucestershire (@the_fbpe) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia I want a monitored email address, I couldn't even sign in to my online account tonight

  • john_glos John Pickup (@john_glos) reported from Bishop's Cleeve, England

    @virginmedia No issues but as I said it’s Vodafone they’re well known for being rubbish round here .

  • john_glos John Pickup (@john_glos) reported from Bishop's Cleeve, England

    @virginmedia Every call I make I can barely hear the other person. Happens all the time. Poor reception constantly . Because you align to Vodafone they’re hopeless round here .

  • maiellamipiace maiella (@maiellamipiace) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia I already did your survey but you knew what I thought when you tried to force me to take on an 18 month contract after my original one ended. You treat customers like a cash crop. I make sure to tell everyone not to use you. You could have kept my business when I move but not now

  • iemhouston EMMΛ (@iemhouston) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @aliward_96 I’ve never got on with them in the past, poor service but Virgin Media isn’t in my area apparently as I did try and check 😑

  • the_fbpe Lord Lefty cultural attachè for Gloucestershire (@the_fbpe) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia OK thanks I pay £110 a month for my service as someone who subsists on a pension and disability benefit this is a big commitment and yet every time I pick up the phone to you I am lied to, for example we are receiving a lot more calls than usual, this is a permanent refrain

  • 1grahamfletcher Graham Fletcher (@1grahamfletcher) reported from Cheltenham, England

    @virginmedia in light of the outage issues today, can someone get in touch with me tomorrow as I want to cancel my contract and move to @skytv and use their Sky Glass technology

  • the_fbpe Lord Lefty cultural attachè for Gloucestershire (@the_fbpe) reported from Brockworth, England

    @virginmedia OK will it be possible to go DM as I don't think twitter needs to know my issues

  • maiellamipiace maiella (@maiellamipiace) reported from Gloucestershire, England

    @virginmedia Oh please. Of course it wasn't resolved - unless you mean, did we get to keep taking your money for a service you don't want? Here's a thought: how about NOT holding long-standing customers to ransom by tying them into new long contracts?
