Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Bristol, England

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

  • sbcallen Bruce Allen (@sbcallen) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia after nearly a year of repeatedly dropped internet service finally asked them to turn off their Wi-fi kit so can use my own. Basic connection fails, again, and nothing left for support desk to blame - challenge that if it’s not on the script then no help

  • sbcallen Bruce Allen (@sbcallen) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia long wait times 40+ minutes and no fix just another que and a recorded message that will be charged by ‘Virgin Gadget Rescue Team’!. Virgin sets new standards in Customer Service.

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Complaint should have been obvious from ALL the comms I’ve sent. Contracted TV, phone, unlimited BB £79/mth. Can’t get phone line (waiting 8 months) but £105 DDs taken each month. Truly appalling

  • mattyribbo Matt Ribbins (@mattyribbo) reported from Filton, England

    @virginmedia Wired. The issue isn't with my side of the network. It appears to be on the virgin side based on the router logs.

  • Georgebaker6969 George Baker (@Georgebaker6969) reported from Thornbury, England

    @james90147996 @JonBake45257780 Funny how they call themselves virgin yet they only ever seem to **** people over. 🤔 @virginmedia

  • chrisandobe Chris (@chrisandobe) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia please get the mobile signal better in fishponds Bristol

  • sbcallen Bruce Allen (@sbcallen) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia customers with difficult problems seem to be parked in telephone que until they go away. Really trying to work to Virgin. Still waiting 55 minutes bet they will just disconnect me!

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia stopped our DD because you take excess ££ from our a/c. Called lots of times, written 2 complaints, been promised it’ll be sorted but empty promises AGAIN absolutely by far worse customer service I’ve ever experienced

  • hisotalus Hannimal 🇪🇺🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈 (@hisotalus) reported from Bristol, England

    @Julie_B92 Especially when particularly young people might not be able to access internet for this kind of stuff on any other device than their phones. It’s so disappointing @virginmedia doesn’t reply to these tweets. I hope it’s an honest oversight and they’ll fix this.

  • shaner1989 Shane Richardson (@shaner1989) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia your support team are useless. 3 hours on calls today. I cannot get my time back that your operatives have wasted by hanging up or disconnecting 3 time.

  • suzyqc7 Suzy Evans (@suzyqc7) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia we've got ongoing issues with tv and broadband in BS7. Please sort it out. Loosing count of how many times this has happened over the last few months.

  • JimEBallantyne James E Ballantyne (@JimEBallantyne) reported from Bristol, England

    After another 30 mins on hold I’ve given up for today as you’re impacting my evening @Virgin @virginmedia @richardbranson Crap service 👎🏻 you never know who might be a returning customer in the future and this is such a poor experience #BadService #CancellingDueToPriceHike

  • LouRipley Louise Ripley (@LouRipley) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia absolute disgrace. Advise via Twitter to make complaint, logged 2-no response, called lots no joy, promises result in nothing. Absolute shambles. STAY AWAY peeps!! Sky a dream in comparison

  • charleebliss_ CHARLEE BLISS ® (@charleebliss_) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia please can you help me with my order!! Tried to ring your offices but rude and useless

  • mikelind2 Mike Lind 🦏 (@mikelind2) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia sadly having to post again. Home broadband down again. Your service is so unreliable it is useless. U have failed to provide a reliable broadband service and remain in breach of contract.

  • PayneTito Tito Payne (@PayneTito) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on with the service In the BS3 postcode area. I have no internet!!!

  • hisotalus Hannimal 🇪🇺🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈 (@hisotalus) reported from Bristol, England

    On top of this since I changed to @virginmedia last week, they have sent me a marketing text message almost every day (Sunday is the only exception). I can’t find how to opt out of these and not sure blocking my network provider’s number is a wise idea. Never have I this quickly

  • shaner1989 Shane Richardson (@shaner1989) reported from Bristol, England

    @vmbusinesshelp @virginmedia @vmbusiness Hi, I think the issue is sorted now. @virginmedia has helped. Shame the call centre is awful though.

  • CharHodkin Charlotte Hodkin (@CharHodkin) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia worst customer service I have ever experienced geeeez just what you want on a Saturday....terrible team...don’t do it guys 😂 #BransonHaveAWord

  • chefwonderwebb nick webb (@chefwonderwebb) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia why has it taken 32 mins on hold to cancel my subscription! I’m still waiting to talk to the person I spoke to 15mjns ago! Terrible service

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Danny_Lush Danny Lush (@Danny_Lush) reported

    @virginmedia Gone off at least 10 times since 0700hrs. Refund for all the days with disrupted service and fixed? no, just same old responses,not worth reporting anymore as last time I did (approx 4 weeks ago) was told it would be weeks before an engineer could come "because of the pandemic"

  • FPL_TheMak Scott (@FPL_TheMak) reported

    @virginmedia Called and told you guys can’t help and I should call Yodel myself to chase up… shocking service so far

  • CallMeKnnth Kenneth (@CallMeKnnth) reported

    @virginmedia I'm having trouble getting my credit refunded since I left Virgin to move into a new home. No one is replying to my emails.

  • davidmurtz David Murtagh (@davidmurtz) reported

    @virginmedia Done all that. The internet was down for about 4 hours from 8pm to midnight ish. Did all the checks that virgins website said. Went on whatsapp help which was down And when i eventually got on it at 9.55pm it said it was closed even though your website says until 10pm

  • FPL_TheMak Scott (@FPL_TheMak) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve just called and spoke to someone there who told me they cannot help and I need to call Yodel…. Who aren’t open

  • axela786 A (@axela786) reported

    @virginmedia It's is likely to go down again as it's already been 4x this week. I'm OK waiting tip 4pm it's just frustrating it happening most of the week and then being told it'd fixed.

  • trucker_butters Rob (@trucker_butters) reported

    @virginmedia if my contract runs out in February next year, do I need to give my notice to cancel everything in January? Or wait until the contract ends?

  • cschrissie Christine Smedley (@cschrissie) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 it down to the parents to replace th clothes as “ you should have been watching her more” well take it you have never tried to get an independent 3 year old and a pushchair out on the school run……the whole estate is a mess and no one at VM cares

  • KenHorizon1 Ken Healy (@KenHorizon1) reported

    @virginmedia all homes in Faithlegg Waterford without service at the moment. Cannot get any response on phone & online says no issues.

  • DannyC_95 Danny. (@DannyC_95) reported
