Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Islington, England

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

  • afturain Allison (@afturain) reported from West Molesey, England

    @virginmedia deny one of the passwords I gave is correct. Their systems are appealing. As is customer service. Don't use Virgin Media. No good reasons for why their practices are in place.

  • skipratmedia craig burston (@skipratmedia) reported from Kidbrooke, England

    @virginmedia We know of an issue in your area that results in loss of service [...] you may be eligible for bill credit if your service isn't restored within two full working days.” I don’t know about bill credit but I massively need to work from home today.

  • afturain Allison (@afturain) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia They know they're taking to the right person because of all the other details, too. They are deliberately making it difficult. If I wanted to buy more from you there would be no problem.

  • Aiel_warrior Amir Sharabi (@Aiel_warrior) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia why is it so difficult to speak to someone and then when you do it’s an impossible mission to get anything sorted - worst customer service I’ve seen in a while.

  • Nica Nicole Mezzasalma (@Nica) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia And if the issue is more@complex than originally thought, I should be informed and not keep having to waste even more time chasing information from you. It’s really not good enough.

  • AndyHowe17 Andy Howe (@AndyHowe17) reported from Croydon, England

    So @virginmedia have refused to get an engineer to me today to fix their problem outside my house, which has cut out my internet and TV services. I have not got many followers but if anyone can retweet this example of disgraceful service I would be grateful.

  • threestain threestain (@threestain) reported from Tooting Bec, England

    @virginmedia Yep it’s broken in my area. Might get a fix tonight. Perhaps

  • EranE1980 Eran Edry (@EranE1980) reported from Camden Town, England

    Hi @virginmedia . Since 5pm I've probably had a total of 3min of working internet in the flat - where I work. Full time. I'm aware there's an ongoing problem in the area (N19 5HY) but the fact is I have lost hours of work over this and I'm not happy. Awaiting your reply. Thanks

  • dranand2812 anand j (@dranand2812) reported from Chigwell, England

    @richardbranson vry sorry to say tht virgin media communication to th customers been very poor. I hv been awaiting new broadband connection fr a while, vry frustrating indeed. #acc813439502 site id 22

  • ruskin147 Rory Cellan-Jones (@ruskin147) reported from Lambeth, England

    Labour plan involves spending £20bn on rolling out a full fibre broadband network to all by 2020 - then providing free service to every home and business. But not clear where that leaves Virgin Media, TalkTalk etc

  • AndyHowe17 Andy Howe (@AndyHowe17) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia my internet and TV are down and seems like a supply or hub problem. Just called your call centre for help and I appreciate they have a script to follow but no help whatsoever. Earliest they could offer an engineer was tomorrow evening when we are not in!

  • g_davep davep (@g_davep) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia #sw16 #broadband poor service can you confirm if you have resumed normal service the broadband is down since yesterday sw16 4sd

  • brazenprods brazen productions- jules hussey (@brazenprods) reported from Camberwell, England

    The first thing I have to do when I come home is time WiFi off on my phone cos @virginmedia is soooooo bad.

  • threestain threestain (@threestain) reported from Tooting Bec, England

    @virginmedia sadly broken in sw17 too...

  • lizmcdonnell1 liz mcdonnell (@lizmcdonnell1) reported from Lambeth, England

    @virginmedia are there problems in the Sw17 area

  • semcglone Stuart McGlone (@semcglone) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia internet outage for the second time in a week. It’s not like I’m paying £93 a month now, wait...huh

  • BarryDanser BarryDanser (@BarryDanser) reported from Brentford, England

    @virginmedia system. Had gone down here in W10 your website shows no problem. Always the same. Phone service rubbish #badservice #poorquality @GripeO_Feed @GripeO_Outreach

  • AndyHowe17 Andy Howe (@AndyHowe17) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia Well I am not being patient and will be taking my custom elsewhere. This is your issue outside of my house and I am not getting the service I am paying for so will look elsewhere for someone who can provide a proper service!

  • skipratmedia craig burston (@skipratmedia) reported from Kidbrooke, England

    dear @virginmedia your internet connectivity is broken.

  • nlpedwards Neil Edwards CQ (@nlpedwards) reported from Richmond, England

    @virginmedia so, having been on hold for 25 minutes, then cut off, called back on hold for a further 15 minutes... cut off again. Your customer service is atrocious... I can hear @SkyHelpTeam beckoning... they were crap, but they were never this shit.

  • jamie3984 jamie hayward (@jamie3984) reported

    @virginmedia what is the quickest way to cancel… Terry the triage bot has informed me the wait is over 4 hrs, you don’t have a human I can talk to apparently? I can’t get through on the phone! seriously your service sucks.

  • JohnMor97232403 John Morgan 💙 (@JohnMor97232403) reported

    @virginmedia One very extremely annoyed virgin customer, I cannot rate your broadband services and fixing in the issue. Still intermittent issues with broadband outage. Feel I have been mis-sold a service that you can’t supply.

  • _kayleighsutton Kayleigh (@_kayleighsutton) reported

    @virginmedia We just closed our account and switched providers. The lady was quite unhelpful and was asking me to put my computer into safe mode although I explained the computer wasn’t wired up or switched on. I was told the reason for the poor service was due to the Xbox…

  • gleesooon JG (@gleesooon) reported

    @virginmedia every week I'm suffering 1 to 2 days of no Internet with constant faults. You services won't help and keep going to error pages. The service phone number keep saying they don't know what's wrong and havnt provide any solution - what can I do

  • therealgreggbro Gregg Bro (@therealgreggbro) reported

    another day with @virginmedia internet issues... does your internet even work?

  • AudreyBlyth Annie blyth (@AudreyBlyth) reported

    @virginmedia so day 2 of no services , tell me why I cannot speak to a real person...site tells me there is an issue, next minutee no issue... come on , I work from home...broadband is essential! I pay you for a service...you broke your contract by not providing that .

  • damonc81 DamoC (@damonc81) reported

    @nolsw @virginmedia Call back and try to connect as a new customer..bet that works

  • AleexJ Alexandra Jowett (@AleexJ) reported

    @virginmedia And also customer service multiple times

  • Redskinblack Derrick Williams (@Redskinblack) reported

    @virginmedia I suppose using customers is cheaper than using network monitoring tools.

  • Zicer2 Z Icer (@Zicer2) reported

    @virginmedia I'm trying to cancel my services with you. I'm not able to get through, can I cancel via Twitter?
