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

  • metallicnat Natalie Timmons (@metallicnat) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia You repeatedly confirmed the arrangement with me and will not reinstate my services despite the assurance that payment in full - not a happy customer #VirginAreDisappointing

  • Yippers Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have done all of the above. Issue here is that this it is affecting other VM customers as well, all of us are using your WiFi! Please check your community forum and you will see there are a lot of posts about the same issue. Resolve this ASAP or consider reimbursement.

  • metallicnat Natalie Timmons (@metallicnat) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia so yesterday services restricted despite arrangement in place. Spoke to your customer services and services reinstated. Then this morning been restricted again despite arrangement - getting sick of this nonsense #notgoodenough #nosealofapprovalhere

  • robpearson8 Robbb ♛ (@robpearson8) reported from Filton, England

    @virginmedia Yeah have the useless app and have spoken to your useless help staff, maybe send an engineer round or refund us seeing were meant to get over 300mbps

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

    @virginmedia How about calling someone by an agreed time to resolve a long term issue. Everyone for @virginmedia please check out CISAS

  • Yippers Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia No issues with speed at the moment. This is a comparison to what I was getting earlier when I was still using Sky. I’ve had Virgin installed since then.

  • littletinaob Tina Ransom (@littletinaob) reported from Clevedon, England

    @virginmedia am paying for pay boxing but have no sound!!!! Please help asap

  • Yippers Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England

    I’ve been on your community page and seen a lot of VM customers have also posted the same issue with no resolution or response from @virginmedia! You need to sort this out - using mobile data instead of WiFi is not what I signed up for.

  • Yippers Amy (@Yippers) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Yes it’s still happening this morning. It’s a permanent issue whenever I go on Instagram. A lot of users have brought up this issue already on the internet, but I can’t find the solution. I can’t continue to switch over to my mobile data just to browse that app!

  • jakepjohnson Jake Johnson 🚲🇪🇺 (@jakepjohnson) reported from Easton-in-Gordano, England

    @RichWalker15 @paul_smortions @AsACyclist @Scoodles64 @grfirestorm @fathead1987 @HylandIan @virginmedia You *are* using it though. It’s how the internet gets to your house. It’s “line rental”. It’s an infrastructure charge for using the cabinets and lines etc to deliver the service (separate cost) to your house.

  • xcbushy sarah bush (@xcbushy) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia absolutely disgusted with you, wait all afternoon for an engineer which you so say booked, to not turn up, an absolute shambles of a company, customer service is shocking 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

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

    @virginmedia 1. Get your team to honour the price agreed on a call 2. call back a customer @ agreed time rather than not at all. How about that as a starter 4 10

  • robpearson8 Robbb ♛ (@robpearson8) reported from Filton, England

    @virginmedia I don’t want to make a complaint just fix our internet x

  • GregDawes38 Greg Dawes (@GregDawes38) reported from Patchway, England

    @virginmedia Follow our local facebook pages in Bristol people constantly asking if anyone elses virgin media/broardband is down again. Become a running joke locally

  • metallicnat Natalie Timmons (@metallicnat) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia thanks very much! We have been loyal customers for eight years and you granted us an extension with a promise to pay and now you’ve restricted our service two days before deadline for payment really really disappointed!!!

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

    Yet again @virginmedia absolutely appalling customer service, by far worse organisation I’ve ever dealt with. They lie, they cheat, they rip from your bank account, no protection at all!!!

  • leedumble Lee (@leedumble) reported from Avonmouth, England

    @virginmedia internet piss poor most expensive package WiFi piss poor customer service shit don’t understand what a shock can you reset and wait 3 hours 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

  • robpearson8 Robbb ♛ (@robpearson8) reported from Filton, England

    @virginmedia Yes and I’ve contact your “help” staff but they were useless

  • bubbles010689 ibubbles12 (@bubbles010689) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Too late for that. My opinion is set. Awful service and a pain.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Foshiznik Simon Chamberlain (@Foshiznik) reported

    @virginmedia customer service is the worst I’ve ever experienced. An hour and 17 minutes on hold for a basic question your apps could answer. Just because a customer is locked into a contract they have to pay no matter how awful the service for, doesn’t mean you can ignore them.

  • AlisonFindlay Alison Findlay (@AlisonFindlay) reported

    @virginmedia impossible to watch tv this evening as internet keeps going down. Please advise when the problem will be fixed. Your site says 12 noon on 12th but wfh tomorrow!

  • CandiceHarriet2 CandiceHarriet (@CandiceHarriet2) reported

    @virginmedia absolute joke! Prices going up sorry think ill find someone better to go with cause im not paying for something that never bloody works! Internet is absolutely c*** 🤬🤬🤬🤬

  • b__s1n B S (@b__s1n) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, no faults found. It’s the black spots which is the problem. The app doesn’t support hub 4 so I’m unable to order boosters via the app

  • ska407284861 ska.4 (@ska407284861) reported

    @virginmedia No, I havent received anything. They dont even update my status. It says they need more info for my address while they didn't even try to deliver to start with. And obviously I cannot talk to anybody as theybare always busy or down..

  • KatiePeskett Katie Peskett (@KatiePeskett) reported

    @virginmedia I had no service from day 1. VM spent 3 weeks trying to sort it out but couldn’t. Yes I returned the equipment months ago

  • GreenwoodUlrike Ulrike 🇩🇪🇪🇺🇬🇧 (@GreenwoodUlrike) reported

    Complex problems in our area with @virginmedia for 2 weeks on amd off now. Can't even get through to a person on the phone

  • BeckyRenton Becky Renton (@BeckyRenton) reported

    @_spearie @virginmedia I’m having this same issue! Says the hub is fine but it clearly isn’t. I need it for work tomorrow!

  • SajMughal92 Uncle Saj (@SajMughal92) reported

    @virginmedia It's now 2048hrs and my Internet and TV still aren't working. The service checker says it would be fixed by 8pm. What's going on?

  • N1kylee Nikkie chauhan (@N1kylee) reported

    @virginmedia yet again having horrific internet issues due to this ISP. Please sort out the service in which I am paying for and you are failing to provide to the expected level for which I am paying for.
