Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Bristol, England

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

  • garethbalmer Gareth Balmer (@garethbalmer) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia All good now - there were some power issues in another part of Gloucester that seemed to be causing the V6 box at our house and a few friends to restart. Very odd

  • RajnishRazdan Rajnish Razdan (@RajnishRazdan) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia it’s amazing isn’t it - you never pick up calls or cut me off so I go to your site to change my package as you’re charging me for things I don’t have and amazingly your live chat button doesn’t work either.

  • nongrockle Trevor Whiteman (@nongrockle) reported from Bristol, England

    @JuanaWhiteman @virginmedia Zero customer service

  • bethkorf Beth Ryan (@bethkorf) reported from Kingswood, England

    @virginmedia Its done now but fairly sure it shouldn't take your agents 45 mins to cancel sky and bt sports and change the TV package to the basic. Maybe more training or better systems are needed. Just saying Sky took about 3 minutes to cancel BT sports for me a year or so ago #competitors

  • tuco_tuco WE ARE TUCO (@tuco_tuco) reported from Bristol, England

    Wow @virginmedia really can't sort their stuff out.......HELP its a joke

  • Bristolvor Ivor the Vorlord (@Bristolvor) reported from Bristol, England

    @KGravil @virginmedia Service?

  • RajnishRazdan Rajnish Razdan (@RajnishRazdan) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia If you’ve got something positive to contribute DM me, like getting someone to call me. Why would I remember the details of 2 hours that I will never get back

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

    @virginmedia That's a shame. Virgin SIM card was so much better and better customer service. I will probably change to a different phone network as soon as I can

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

    @virginmedia hi I need help. I'm not able to call or text so I can't even call virgin media for help.

  • dave_backwell David Lloyd (@dave_backwell) reported from Backwell, England

    She tried to complain, but got nowhere. This month her contract expired, so she tried again. Yesterday she spoke to a customer service guy @virginmedia who was very surprised at what she had been told back in July. He told her to contact the house moving dept, who'd refund her

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

    @virginmedia I been with virgin for years and last month was put on the new virgin O2 SIM deal. I'm already looking forward to when I can cancel the O2 SIM only part. Couldn't get any help with O2 but luckily the person at virgin helped me.

  • gman7634 graham monks (@gman7634) reported from Patchway, England

    @virginmedia It's fixed now and it was a problem in the box down the road, almost 24hrs to fix it is a bit of a joke thou 🙄🙄

  • dave_backwell David Lloyd (@dave_backwell) reported from Backwell, England

    Appalling customer service thread to follow about @VirginMedia. 6 months ago my partner and I moved in together. We were both customers with @virginmedia but for obvious reasons decided we only needed one account in our new house ...

  • carolgladwin Carol Gladwin (@carolgladwin) reported from Nailsea, England

    @virginmedia Had real problems with the service web page.. took an age to load and then chucked me back a page! Our service is back now.

  • gman7634 graham monks (@gman7634) reported from Patchway, England

    @virginmedia you said you know what the problem is but no one is working at the box!!!! Part 2

  • Superstan_92 J Stan (@Superstan_92) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Multiple problems when moving home. Now we have been told we won't have anything installed until 31st December when we moved in on 29th November.

  • chloehester Chloe (@chloehester) reported from Bristol, England

    Why does @virginmedia online chat never work?! Its a nightmare trying to get through on the phone 😭 I just need to change my package ffs.

  • bethkorf Beth Ryan (@bethkorf) reported from Kingswood, England

    Wow @virginmedia you've out done yourself, 45 mins and counting to cancel sports channels for mum after dad passing away all with an agent #shockingservice

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

    @virginmedia If it's better customer service then that would be better than having to be with O2

  • DollyDeluxe Angel Eyes #FBPE 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧ (@DollyDeluxe) reported from Patchway, England

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 And that is why you are known as the most stupid MP ever

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • mvrander mvrander (@mvrander) reported

    @maxray @virginmedia Small print at the bottom says you can cancel your contract because of the increase any time before mid April. Think we'll be leaving

  • H1GH_GR4DE Mr Pink (@H1GH_GR4DE) reported

    @virginmedia No flashing lights, the network was viewable. Rebooted it, didn't help. Just randomly started working again now.

  • JonathanOPrice Jonathan Price (@JonathanOPrice) reported

    @MartinSLewis After problems I've been having in trying to port the number over from @virginmedia to @bt_uk I'll be doing the switching myself in future. Asking companies to do it on my behalf is an headache.

  • petefinn2013 Pete Finn (@petefinn2013) reported

    @O2 can someone please tell me how I cancel the sim card via @virginmedia that I never wanted in the first place

  • JimSymonds Jim Symonds (@JimSymonds) reported

    @virginmedia so despite 2 promises in writing from your customer services that the dangerous manhole cover would be fixed by lunchtime today, no-one has even been to look at it. Are you just waiting till someone is seriously injured?

  • Droosaid D Wailer 🟠 (@Droosaid) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve spoken to someone, the box is broken. They’re sending a new one. Quite why I had to jump through hoops and get fobbed off, told to go online to do diagnostics which is hilarious as there was no connection. Your whole help system is unfit for purpose. I doubt we’re renewing.

  • MikeBDunne Dunney 🇺🇦#DontBeABystander (@MikeBDunne) reported

    @Jopey__ @virginmedia @SnoopDogg In fairness to them, they seem to have sorted that problem.

  • mariapage Dr Maria Panagiotidi (@mariapage) reported

    @virginmedia I cancelled my account... you confirmed... and now it looks like it's still going and you want me to pay for next month!!! WTF

  • GwIadysStreet Elizabeth (@GwIadysStreet) reported

    @virginmedia What a rubbish service !! we had a new box fitted today in front room and now the box in the back room says there’s a problem with our account@. The new box is working well.

  • xueshang Tweetledumb (@xueshang) reported

    @virginmedia my TV still is not working after 5 weeks. They said the outage since midFeb. would be fixed, by 16th March, then 23rd, now 30th. (Engineer came yesterday the fault is unchanged.) VM haven't called, texted or written.
