Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Islington, England

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

  • drewerydyke Drewery **** (@drewerydyke) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia I called to register the fault but that is not an option that is available. So Virgin recognises a fault; customer just cannot register it. Flawed, no? #virginmediadown No wonder #VirginGalactic can thrive. Clever.

  • eatcheeselouise MarshmallowMedia (@eatcheeselouise) reported from Camden Town, England

    @virginmedia This has been escalated for 5 months now. Your escalation team dealing with emergencies doing nothing. Can anyone else help on this matter ?

  • shaspi Sharon Spiteri (@shaspi) reported from Tottenham, England

    @virginmedia There’s a problem in the area apparently which is due to be fixed by 3pm. Thanks for checking.

  • damienk11 Damien Kelly (@damienk11) reported from London, England

    @virginmedia broadband service in Greenwich London is shocking, hasn't been working for 1 week now and when I've rang customer services multiple times, all they try to do is up-sell me on their other more expensive packages. Terror to think we pay for this service!!!!

  • Dee03616 Dee_dee03616 (@Dee03616) reported from Croydon, England

    @virginmedia I seem to be having very slow connection?

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @O2 Yes, the wifi isn’t working due to technical issues with @virginmedia and I need to leave the house for @O2 to work.

  • scottyboy1973 Scott Brindley (@scottyboy1973) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down in multiple homes on my street. I was told by your support you don't monitor your endpoints? Shocking if true!

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia VM I’ve not had any internet for 24hrs now!!! I can’t get access to a customer service rep on here who actually do something about it and all I’ve had it a BOT on repeat on WhatsApp!! Can you sort this issue out!? It’s 24hrs now!!

  • drewerydyke Drewery **** (@drewerydyke) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia That is the box that appears *after* clicking to register loss of service. See top line:”problem registering loss of service”. System apparently designed to avoid and flaws being found in it. Old capitalist adage:”the provider is always right”😜😎

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on??? I don’t have any internet since morning? And it’s affecting my mobile phone in the house!! I had to leave the house to use mobile network to work! Rubbish service! That’s the problem when 2 service providers - O2 & VM joins force! #virginmediadown

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia I have NO INTERNET NOW FOR OVER 36hrs!!! VM you’ve been promising to sort it!!! What a freaking useless network provider!! It’s a joke! I’m sure your competitors are laughing right now!

  • drewerydyke Drewery **** (@drewerydyke) reported from Hackney, England

    @virginmedia Tx. What is reason for London N16 collapse of service? Your team must know that it exemplifies routine unreliability & less-than-promised bandwidth; calls into question willingness / ability to deliver service. Time to switch?

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Pls don’t take this personally but honestly it should be in your policy that customers reps should read treads before relying!! I’ve mentioned before - I’m deaf! I CANNOT make phone calls! That’s why that stupid BOT robot is demeaning and frustrating for ppl with limitations!

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia And what’s so annoying is that for some reasons it’s seems to be affecting my mobile network because even though I’m not connected to the wifi @O2 doesn’t works in the house and I’d need to leave the house and move further down street for the #O2 network to work and reply!

  • louisemirwitch Louise Mirwitch (@louisemirwitch) reported from Hounslow, England

    @virginmedia My husband has had no email since 15.11 today. Nothing on phone or tablet. Mine is ok. All he gets is a box asking to sign in which pops up repeatedly. No webmail access and can’t set him up on my device. Help

  • Robertjp0121 Robert Józef (@Robertjp0121) reported from Ealing, England

    @virginmedia issue with Router (wifi) — no internet and intermittent connection; pls fix this bloody issue!!!!

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia And before you asked me to ask someone else to make the phone call; I live alone so no I can’t get someone to help make the phone call!

  • SOCYearwood Son of Carl 🇧🇧🇯🇲✊🏾💙 (@SOCYearwood) reported from Harrow Weald, England

    @Hyperoptic #10YearsOfHyperoptic Virginmedia and BT couldn't provide a reliable service. Hyperoptic could.

  • kaybaka Kay Bak (@kaybaka) reported from Camberwell, England

    @virginmedia Yeah?! I hope you can resolve and repay the works and fees I’ve missed as well because of lack of internet on both my mobile network and internet because of @O2 and #virginmediadown

  • ChaTheGrace Charlene, RN 🌻 (@ChaTheGrace) reported from Tottenham, England

    @talk2GLOBE really? even if I am here in London and my service provider is VirginMedia? Lasing ka o bangag?

    @Mazstrict @virginmedia Three hours I was holding Friday, four departments, passed from pillar to post only to be cut off at 2 hours 57 minutes. Their service is atrocious.... Switched to Sky

  • boxer_junior Rocky Boxer Junior - MMA (@boxer_junior) reported

    @virginmedia ZR as I said poor customer service. You win. I did not want the virgin tv fixed as it’s rubbish and I can live without it. You’ve bored me to death. The internet coming into my home is poor. I’ll carry on paying for the internet that doesn’t work. Don’t bother answering.

  • Ban_Ana_Smith Ana Hernandez (@Ban_Ana_Smith) reported

    @virginmedia I have currently been an hour and 15 minutes on the phone trying to get hold of movals and disconnection team and they keep sending me to customer services. I can't spend my whole evening on the phone!! 😭

  • uncle_honka Honk (@uncle_honka) reported

    @virginmedia can you tell your resolution team that complaint reference C-2112201227 isn't resolved, cos apparently me emailing them 3 seperate times to tell them it wasn't and asking for a deadlock letter to send to the independent adjudicator gave the impression it was.

  • c_r_shaw Christopher Shaw (@c_r_shaw) reported

    @virginmedia Ah. Heading for day 5 then. The latest update we have is: We have identified the problem and an engineer is on their way. The estimated repair time is now: 14/02/2021 18:15:00. The Virgin Media Team.- ID: F008795191. Best wishes, the Virgin Media Team.

  • Justonebob Bob Condick (@Justonebob) reported

    @virginmedia so I've tried to cancel for 2 weeks now and you won't answer the phone, not in contract so just going to cancel direct debt, that cool?

  • twinbabbas TwinsD (@twinbabbas) reported

    @virginmedia what a disgraceful service my phone service and broadband was cut off in less than a day leaving us with no services at all because we asked to go over to BT.

  • AndrewKrisman Andrew Krisman (@AndrewKrisman) reported

    @virginmedia hi Virgin Media, I’ve spent over an hour trying to cancel my broadband account via phone and internet and finding your customer service impenetrable. I know I’m not a celeb, but can someone help me close my account!!

  • H7Factualist Harjinder Kalsi (@H7Factualist) reported
