Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Barnsley, England

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

  • AnnielizzieSten
    Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia It’s strange because the online help claims there’s no problem but the phone says there’s a major problem in the area. Perhaps the online help needs updating because it’s no help at all

  • andyksheffield
    Andy Kershaw Media 🎙 (@andyksheffield) reported from Sheffield, England

    @StueyDay @virginmedia @lionsgateplusuk The service is awful and customers find it too hard to get a prompt response. Last time this happened it took at least 8-10 emails before they got past the automated letter asking me to switch off, reboot and check all the connections.

  • VanceBulla
    V-Bull (@VanceBulla) reported from Brampton Bierlow, England

    @virginmedia Faceless customer service. Can’t live chat, can’t chat to anyone on the phone. All they want to do is send you a text or a link to their website. Poor. What am I paying for? Certainly isn’t customer service

  • Koko__Johnson

    Virgin Media have the worst customer service in the world

    @virginmedia I hung up the call, rang back and spoke with a lovely man. Reset my email, password and answered all my quedtions. All the men are when you call, the female was awful. But thank you for the response

    Coincidence that BT & EE has been selling broadband all day in area and now my @virginmedia is down.

  • Bexwa
    Rebecca (@Bexwa) reported from Dewsbury, England

    @virginmedia The TV that it glitches on cant reach the box to get it wired in (but its only 10 ft away) I can't hard wire my laptop in. It goes off all the time! And then keep texting me saying you are coming for the WiFi pod after speaking with customer service. Im paying a fortune for this

  • Churchill0782
    The Churchill (@Churchill0782) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I've checked and definitely not entitled due to the amount of days with no service. Like I said, a good will gesture. People who are working from home haven't been able to work for a start. Only been with you a few weeks and have nothing but issues.

  • AnnielizzieSten
    Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia It’s fine here but earlier in March we were left without any service for days at a time . The reason given was service upgrades. Ring them on 150 for an automated update

    @calvg @virginmedia Thank you 🙏 Stop blaming us and be responsible for your crap connections

  • jamiewhalley87
    Jamie Whalley (@jamiewhalley87) reported from Wakefield, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to your cancellations department since Saturday. In total, I have been on hold for 3 hours. 1 hour intervals before you cut me off. Your txt service is SH*T. Your agent introduced himself as working for Three, before he disconnected

  • TezzaBelle88
    Terry Hague (@TezzaBelle88) reported from Sheffield, England

    Anyone else’s @virginmedia WiFi down ?Mines been down nearly 24 hrs 🥲

  • Helen_Claire71
    Helen-Claire Stone (@Helen_Claire71) reported from Sheffield, England

    @virginmedia’s customer service is appalling. 3 hours to respond to a message has to be the benchmark for worst practice. Last weekend it took them 27 hours to sort out cancelling my account. Absolutely hopeless.

  • SBOmad
    Adam Hutt 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@SBOmad) reported from Swinton, England

    @virginmedia Broadband went back down for me around 16:30 and no internet etc and like others your website is still failing

  • AnnielizzieSten
    Rt. Hon Annie (@AnnielizzieSten) reported from Sheffield, England

    @PaulbernalUK @virginmedia I can’t help with that. Good luck.

  • popsgolf
    Andrew Poppleton 💙 (@popsgolf) reported from Wentworth, England

    @O2PriorityUK I’m struggling to connect with app. I’m a @virginmedia account holder. Initial you sent me a code but via my mobile. Now my phone number is placed in the box it doesn’t recognise it. Help?

  • 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.

  • 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

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia I was with virgin media for nearly 10 years, zero issues! Always got the speeds advertised, tv was also decent.

  • 54JohnBull
    John Bull (@54JohnBull) reported

    @DeviateDefiant @virginmedia @MoneySupermkt It's a stupid system where every time you have to threaten to cancel, and eventually even that becomes a waste of time.

  • daveyhub
    Daveyhub 🎧 (@daveyhub) reported

    Why is the tv channel 5 so quiet ? @channel5_tv I’m watching through virgin media tv box. Same as Netflix that really quiet too compared to all other channels/apps ? Is it a @virginmedia broadcasting issue ?

    Michael Anderson (@Michael45048695) reported

    @Simon_Whale @virginmedia Virgin are terrible to try and talk to about any problems, i got really lucky and ended up talking to a member of the board who corrected it for me despite another board member trying to reverse it.

    @sephiroth17181 @virginmedia Worst customer service systems and people I've ever had the misfortune to have to contact but thankfully there are now other fibre providers on my street whose service is me reliable too
