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

  • Louisblack Louis Houghton (@Louisblack) reported from Hove, England

    Ugh, I really need to get off my arse and swap internet from @virginmedia to someone else. £50 a month is pretty damn ridiculous.

  • planetf1 Nigel Jones (@planetf1) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Though the annoying aircraft was that before Xmas we did a test which failed so got offered appt bit had to skip as away over Xmas. Back and still down (power light flashing green even after reset) and hub3 UI stats show no sync but test all ok

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia family recently got your services and are having a sound issue which looking online is a problem that’s been around a while but I can find if you ever published a resolution - sound on V6 box cuts out intermittently for a moment in Dolby Ditial Audio programs

  • JMOC89 James Crouch (@JMOC89) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia I haven't first time for that as its hard for me to find the time to sit in hold for an hour to get to anyone. I sent another complaint through your service and have the conf. Maybe this time I will actually get the call instead of expecting to waste more of my time

  • Shots_16 Shots (@Shots_16) reported from Lewes, England

    Your service is ******* shit. Stealing my money and leave me on hold for 45 minutes. I paid for a 12 month contract. I called up and cancelled 2 months ago. So why have I been billed £55 for the past 2 months WHICH IS MORE THAN I PAID DURING MY CONTRACT @virginmedia

  • CrossMediaNet Allan Cross (@CrossMediaNet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia no broadband or TV for five days. Recorded message on 150 says sorry for intermittent service. It's NO service. Can a human contact me please.

  • emxme Emma Mendes da Costa (she/her) (@emxme) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia As in the above tweets, @obscurenonsense has already been on the phone to your engineers for an hour. Our upload speed is close to zero, and there is a recurring network problem in our area. You have made working from home a complete nightmare.

  • JMOC89 James Crouch (@JMOC89) reported from Hove, England

    Imagine my second @virginmedia complaint almost 4 weeks without a response also. Its almost like they don't want to deal with it

  • EL_FLOREZ_ END OF LEVEL BOSS (@EL_FLOREZ_) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia I don’t have the number as it was withheld. But it was to our landline that no one has! Offshore from a busy call centre in India I think. Claimed to be looking after the lines and said our router had multiple errors (it has been slow recently) so sounded legit...

  • emxme Emma Mendes da Costa (she/her) (@emxme) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia After a total of hour and 15 minutes on the phone, @obscurenonsense was finally told that there is a known network issue affecting both wired and wireless devices in our area (BN3). We have not been given a time frame for its resolution.

  • planetf1 Nigel Jones (@planetf1) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia So knows need to call just odd behaviour and was hoping you get appt sorted yesterday. What did the broadband test actually mean if ok. Implies your network kit can access router which seems unlikely

  • mike_the_frog Mike Coombes (@mike_the_frog) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just been kept on hold for 40 minutes before finally speaking to a very rude and brusque operative who spent 5 minutes asking me to check the cables I’d already checked (I’m not stupid) before hanging up on me. Problem still not resolved. Appalling.

  • emxme Emma Mendes da Costa (she/her) (@emxme) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia Again, @obscurenonsense has spoken to your engineers already. It is a recurring, known issue that has stopped us working from home effectively. I feel like you haven't read our tweets properly.

  • CrossMediaNet Allan Cross (@CrossMediaNet) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia It’s day six without service. I have been speaking to your call centres who simply tell me what they see on their screens. These are the same messages that I’m getting via text. When I call 150 each day I get the same message saying normal service should resume by 4pm.

  • IAmKaneHuxley Kane Huxley (@IAmKaneHuxley) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia terrible, unproffesional service! Spoke to 3 different people nobody dealing with our request. Wifi delayed by 2 weeks, refused to be passed to manager TWICE & lied too then to be told we have no order! No sense of professionalism/customer service. Never use them!

  • mike_the_frog Mike Coombes (@mike_the_frog) reported from Shoreham-by-Sea, England

    @virginmedia He said that the box needed replacing but didn’t have time to do it. My TV is unwatchable and your customer service is shoddy.

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @virginmedia Hi - issue hasn’t resolved from reboot (didn’t appear to be an update). Also seeing very intermediate problems where programs freeze momentarily/blur (almost like on satellite when the weather gets in the way / when the hard drive was struggling to playback files)

  • priyadeshingkar Prof Priya Deshingkar (@priyadeshingkar) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia Broadband has been v slow for days and seems to be completely down today.

  • rafthemaster Richard Frame (@rafthemaster) reported from Burgess Hill, England

    @theTunnelBear is there an issue using your service on @virginmedia - first time using their internet and I can’t access your website and my bear won’t activate (HTTPS error is thrown rather than a direct blocking notification) think @ThreeUK are also blocking your website

  • JMOC89 James Crouch (@JMOC89) reported from Hove, England

    @virginmedia They found nothing and hung up on me. I don't think my opinion of a company has ever been changed so much as you guys have over the last few months. Submitted another complaint as I have to work to pay for your awful service

  • paulhsj Paul Johnson (@paulhsj) reported

    @virginmedia I was supposed to have had a call back at 9pm but didn’t get one. And we’re now being told that you have IT issues and we’ll have to wait 5 days for it to be repaired??

  • lynnepattison Lynne Pattison (@lynnepattison) reported

    @virginmedia I don't think we are going to get the link to work. I have restarted everything this morning, and things appear to be working, but one of the people I spoke to yesterday told me to reset the router, and now my network name has gone. Do I need to log in with the details from the

  • DukeOfHavoc Duke Of Anti-Growth Coalition (@DukeOfHavoc) reported

    @fxylxy Sorry, but I think it's likely you aren't getting your voucher. Community installed last week, went down after a day, took 5 days to fix, back down and told another 5 days. I'm cancelling. Far worse than Virgin media.

  • mc_guinness4 MacBeth (@mc_guinness4) reported

    @virginmedia don’t ask this company for any help with late payments and help if you’re struggling financially. Because they won’t help

  • ollygatorsmudge ollygator smudge Ailbhe Ni hEimhin (@ollygatorsmudge) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks but I'm beyond that now. So angry with the attitude of the agent and the poor service. All I asked for was a small gesture. Now all I can think about is leaving. Am looking at other service providers. I was on an 18 month contract and I want out if it now, not Dec 23.

  • ollygatorsmudge ollygator smudge Ailbhe Ni hEimhin (@ollygatorsmudge) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. The issue is resolved now, I hope. My annoyance with Virgin media is this, after putting up with poor service since moving into current home 3 years ago your agent on the phone effectively called me a liar. Refused to refund a small amount. I'm done now! Any ideas?

  • thebluemanc The Blue Manc (@thebluemanc) reported

    @virginmedia I would expect your team to be more aware of that then me. Another shortcoming from your customer service team not providing one I guess. Adds to the list of poor service already received @richardbranson come on man, I just want internet, why is it so hard to deal with your team

  • jonbrigdale Jon Brigdale (@jonbrigdale) reported

    @virginmedia I’m more worried it took 5 calls to get you to agree to send an engineer in the first place if I’m honest! Customer service has been non existent since Branson sold out

  • Rainbowspinning Rainbow (@Rainbowspinning) reported

    @virginmedia my mum signed up to direct debit payments via an agent to make it easier on her but it's been weeks and no payment has been taken despite the bill being due. Is this something to worry about? I don't want her service shut down for no reason.

  • amandachambersj Amanda (@amandachambersj) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks I’ll try ring after work what option do you suggest to say I’m ringing for on the automated service at the start as if I try to say I’m ringing due to broadband issues it doesn’t let me speak to anyone? Thanks
