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

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    Life as @virginmedia customer.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Still no response. 19 days and counting 🙄. It’s clear you’ve been lying to get rid of me. What are you going to do to resolve this issue before I contact ombudsman? A suggestion: you arrange for someone to contact me. By now it should be clear to you your support doesn’t work.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia so am missing the football again - about the third time now in about 6 weeks. Engineers have replaced all cables and router but refuse to accept it’s a network issue. How do I actually progress this or speak to someone who cares?

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia December. Official complaint prior to that. Please read back through your thread, the broken promises and the lies then come back with a proposal to resolve.

  • Chataranga Martin Holme (@Chataranga) reported from Kennington, England

    @virginmedia on top of hundreds of spam junk emails we have umpteen scam calls on the landline. Very day I am getting increasingly saddened by Virgin Media’s inability to stop scammers and spam flooding my system. Very expensive terrible service

  • lewis_adam_ Adam | Lewis (@lewis_adam_) reported from Ditton, England

    @virginmedia Tbh just looking in to cancelling the current package, nothing but ongoing problems with Virgin Media and impossible to talk to someone on the phone without going on hold for hours and even they they can’t resolve issues. Issues stemming back 5years now! 😠

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Still keeps going off. Has been like this for months now. Has gone off twice this evening. Can’t get hold of anyone. Self service goes in circles. Just need to speak to someone who will listen to the issue. It has to be network level. 2 engineers have confirmed our setup is fine.

  • RichAlStanley Richard Stanley (@RichAlStanley) reported from Maidstone, England

    Have paid £26 for HD live download and quality is terrible @virginmedia. Its pixallating and freezing @SkySport. Is this going to be sorted out? Why is there no message on screen explaining theres a technical problem ?

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia I get that. But several people on there have logged issues. I haven’t used that tool but try it. But issue is defo at your end as between outages speed/latency is brilliant and other people have same issue on street. That’s why I’m so keen to fix not leave as usually gr8 service.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Just wondered if I’ve waited long enough yet for anyone @virginmedia to care enough to respond to me? Still no forum response. Still not complaint response. Still line issues. Just lies from your SM team.

  • elise_john85 Elise (@elise_john85) reported from Maidstone, England

    Awesome, so effectively @virginmedia raise current loyal customers prices to fund the discount new customers can get in their sale. Roll on buying my own house and not being tied to them anymore. 12 years of this crap!

  • SETimberDamp South East Timber & Damp (@SETimberDamp) reported from Maidstone, England

    Hanging on now for over an hour to @virginmedia after being sold a router for a new flat that I told them had a BT phone socket. Trying to #cancel as landlord wont have additional sockets. Lady put us in hold/SILENT for 55mins - they are hoping we disconnect. #virginmedia

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Yes have posted in forums - no response, called, live chats, SMS. full works. Engineers even told us prob is not at our property as far back as Oct/Nov and neighbours have same issue but nothing is done, call centre staff are rude and treat you with contempt. Ref is C0912202465

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Your agent told me 72hrs. But then I was also told if I post on the forum I will get support. But we can all see how that has panned out. Just. Fix. The. Problem. Why is this so difficult? I guess copy/paste apologies are just cheaper than dealing with the real issues.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Yes dropouts Ethernet and WiFi. To be clear that message was not our engineer. Just proof prob is beyond our home. That neighbourhood thread is 14 comments long! We’ve had 2 engineers out. Cable replaced and hub replaced. Problem persists. 4 dropouts this eve alone.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Last week after your call centre agent refused to escalate the 2months of issues highlighted in this thread.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia Would rather you fixed the problem.

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia This is the exact problem. Your agents deny there is an issue in the area. A recent social media post revealed many people in our neighbourhood have the same issue. All your agents want to do is ‘send signals’ to our router and restart our router. Nobody taking issue seriously.

  • Chataranga Martin Holme (@Chataranga) reported from Kennington, England

    @virginmedia do you have ANY customer service people working? I have tried ringing you for the last 24 hours and constantly get a ‘ring back later’ message. The service these days is appalling. I sent a tweet yesterday that mentioned Amazon and they replied to me. Virgin didn’t!

  • mrjcgoodwin Jonathan Goodwin (@mrjcgoodwin) reported from Ashford, England

    @virginmedia No not aware of status line please advise. No interest in community support forum. This is an issue with your service and equipment. Needs proper support.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • DurzoBlades Dave (@DurzoBlades) reported

    @virginmedia There has been some improvements. It used to be that the net would be down for hours and I would need to reset the router a few times until I get connection, now I don't have to do that as much but I still have to reset the router at least once a day now since the repairs were(1)

  • Craig_Gsxr Craig (@Craig_Gsxr) reported

    @michael_P_C_ @cafrinh @virginmedia Guess I'm lucky then as I've never had problems with mine. I'd love to bin them off as they ain't the cheapest but tried most the others and the service on this area for them was piss poor

  • ukparky parky (@ukparky) reported

    @virginmedia well thats a great answer. was hoping someone could say well we will look into the price for you. just an address to cancel eh. virgin you suck!

  • liamscannell Liam Scannell (@liamscannell) reported

    @virginmedia Cant speak to a actual human when calling! 2 hours on hold to be cut off! Great customer service! Shocking!

  • DolphinShaving Dolphin Shaving Ltd (@DolphinShaving) reported

    @virginmedia Just got cut off after an hour and a half of being bounced from department to department in my attempt to cancel my Virgin subscription for home phone and broadband, the level of incompetence is near criminal. @richardbranson

  • FBois29 Dwaine Pipe (@FBois29) reported

    Can somebody at @virginmedia please tell me how I can speak to an actual human being about my broadband issues. I am constantly being redirected to help pages and not to a customer service advisor. This is not what I am paying for.

  • DurzoBlades Dave (@DurzoBlades) reported

    @virginmedia Done. When I have issues with my net now the lights are all on, it doesn't look like there is an issue, if there was then one light would be glowing yellow rather than blue but now there isn't any change to the lights on the router even if there was an issue.

  • peterhkirk Pete Kirk (@peterhkirk) reported from Ballyclare, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I accept more customers are working from home including myself however after a year I would expect a company such as @virginmedia to adapt and do everything within their powers to improve their service, not worsen!!??

  • seekay8 Chris Knott (@seekay8) reported

    @virginmedia Ok so a couple things, we changed the account password yesterday afternoon, the agent could deal with my call due to systems down, when I rang back later the automated system didn’t recognise the new password so not sure it has been changed

  • ItsGaryC Gary Cross (@ItsGaryC) reported

    @virginmedia spent 3 hours on hold the last 2 days to be hung up on every time! Good service!
