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

  • cathgray23 Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia We got the first bill, the customer service guy was still answering my calls and he promised we wouldn’t be charged for TV. We were! Our next bill still has TV on and he is not replying to emails, texts or voicemails. One of the reasons we agreed to switch was personal service

  • Pontemiller Nick Lawton (@Pontemiller) reported from Knottingley, England

    I think very soon I'll be saying 👋 to @ThreeUK and 🤝 to @virginmedia...over the last couple of years, the signal has got increasingly worse. I have just bought a new phone, but the problem persists...really unhappy.

  • chococlaire77 Claire Stewart (@chococlaire77) reported from Sheffield, England

    Well @virginmedia what a waste of our time today,we booked an engineer in the time slot 8-12,and nobody arrived I’m afraid.Tried contacting you,and can’t get through...can anyone help?

  • GaryFretwell1 Gary Fretwell (@GaryFretwell1) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I appreciate your advice, but rather than ask fellow customers for a fix I’d rather hope @virginmedia trained staff would be able to rectify this issue. I’ll try the forum, but this is not the way to run a business….@Ofcom

  • ReeceBryan94 Reece Bryan (@ReeceBryan94) reported from Wombwell, England

    @virginmedia how do we get the new wifi extender pods or a new Virgin Hub? Our wifi signal and speed changes dramatically between the front and back of the house, the coverage is dreadful

  • pidgpie Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

    Virginmedia on form again check my status no tv no Internet gets worse everytime it's down

  • goonie2008 Andrew Lee (@goonie2008) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia @O2 Its definitely you lot Robin as your broadband service was a disgrace when I moved to you and I had to pay out for cancelling contract early. If this is what’s to come O2 then you will a customer of over 15 years.

  • ollieinleeds Oliver Dean #TeamLH (@ollieinleeds) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia you must have the most unreliable internet service in the UK. Several times a year it goes down for a full working day. Again today, "Unplanned Outage" yet your van was here within seconds. Unplanned my arse. Compensate my loss of earnings! #poorService

  • pidgpie Chris,,,, (@pidgpie) reported from Rotherham, England

    Virginmedia Rotherham some with no internet and no TV known issues in the area 6pm fix time

  • John_murphy1 John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.

  • DaveFincher1984 David Fincher (@DaveFincher1984) reported from Mirfield, England

    @virginmedia currently getting a spinning blue loading circle when trying to access the YouTube app via my v6 box. Any solution you suggest? Been like it for a few days now.

  • parky1021 simon parkinson (@parky1021) reported from Barnsley, England

    @virginmedia WiFi constantly dropping out. How do I fix this plz

  • leannerains Leanne Rebecca (@leannerains) reported from Sheffield, England

    @SkyHelpTeam went to renew our sky package and they quote us £99 for new package deal bye bye sky il cancel our sky package and go somewhere else and maybe try @virginmedia #ripoff

  • cranworth791 Sam Millington (@cranworth791) reported from Rawmarsh, England

    @virginmedia Yeah that’s fine, or just a phone number / person to deal with? It’s my parents business and they have their property engineers coming out to view the issue on Monday. I assume they will be in touch themselves regarding the issues. Luckily it’s just rain water, and not sewage.

  • Sheffield_Boy Marc Riley (@Sheffield_Boy) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia got a flashing Internet light on router that won't go away so my WiFi (and therefore TV/ streaming etc) not working. Tried rebooting, resetting, the works. Online help / faq no help. Are there any issues?

  • Ray_Lennox Tom Clark (@Ray_Lennox) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia what is going on with WiFi in Sheffield. It’s been awful for weeks

  • cathgray23 Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England

  • zackwynj zack jones (@zackwynj) reported from Mirfield, England

    why’s my wifi still **** @virginmedia

  • cathgray23 Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia The mobile no. of the customer services chap who sold us the package. I’m not bothered about the phone line I just don’t won’t to be paying for TV we don’t have and I can’t phone virgin without my phone line or I’ll be charged.

  • cathgray23 Catherine Gray (@cathgray23) reported from Horbury, England

    @virginmedia We discussed the Oomph package which I initially agreed to then changed my mind within the 14 days, informed the customer service guy, by phone, text and email, he said he would cancel. The engineer came and documented that TV had been refused and therefore didn’t install

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • UKPassivhaus UKPassivhaus.com (@UKPassivhaus) reported

    @virginmedia 18 months of regular 75 minute phonecalls complaining about you overcharging, manager finally refunds me as I closed my account. 6 months later? Still arguing regularly with a foreign call centre who apparently never have a manager present. Where's my £168 please?

  • StarmerGone #PreventStarmerPM 🇵🇸🇺🇦🇪🇺 #GeneralStrike (@StarmerGone) reported

    @virginmedia If you think I'm accepting a more than TWENTY EIGHT PER CENT increase for the same service, you must be on drugs!

  • bts_views Stewart Walker (@bts_views) reported

    @virginmedia - experiencing intermittent broadband, advised outage and scheduled fix is 29/3 - 6 days from now. Pretty poor show esp with price increase imminent

  • jgoldingay James goldingay (@jgoldingay) reported

    @virginmedia It’s basically a speed issue and the lack of signal in the rest of the house. We only have the lounge that has signal (where the router is). We are toying with the idea of a mesh system to solve the latter, but only if the first issue is solved

  • UKPassivhaus UKPassivhaus.com (@UKPassivhaus) reported

    @virginmedia I am currently in a webchat that is taking a very long time. I would like a phone call from the English manager who issued the refund as I am tired of arguing with people who don't understand what the problem is because English is their second language. I've had 18 months of it.

  • Maria_Manninen Maria Manninen (@Maria_Manninen) reported

    @virginmedia I have checked several times today, this is the latest. At moments it claims there are no issues, at moments it gives an estimated fix time but is it has been constantly changing the last two days I don’t have much confidence in what it says

  • 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?

  • Evs74Alex Alex Evans (@Evs74Alex) reported

    @virginmedia a 21% price rise?!! Are you sure? And then offer “help” including payment plans or “reviewing” my package. We’re done.

  • HayleyBelfast Hayley Allen (@HayleyBelfast) reported

    @virginmedia Can I get out of my contract due to poor service. It’s always been bad but significantly worse/ non existent since change to O2

  • ErichtJohn JohnBoyle (@ErichtJohn) reported

    @virginmedia. My parents live in their own home and you provide their landline service (I manage their account because of their age - 97 and 96). I’ve been away but discovered 2 days ago their phone is ‘number not recognised’. I cannot contact you neither can my sister.
