  • lbjdenny Leon Denny (@lbjdenny) reported from Ipswich District, England

    @virginmedia Issues have been far from fixed!! My router rebooted itself 5 times today. This is not acceptable when I could be working on customer systems attempting to support them with their IT when I can't even rely on my own ISP to deliver a decent service is embarrassing!

  • lukeredpath Luke Redpath (@lukeredpath) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia @ruskin147 It’s also affecting your 4G mobile data service so every time your broadband goes down so does the 4G and we lose all of our internet access.

  • Da_Hayts Mark Hayton (@Da_Hayts) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia suggest you get more technical support staff!! Second attempt to get support after being disconnect after an hours waiting in a queue😡

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Digi1701 Rob 🇨🇦 (@Digi1701) reported

    @virginmedia @lemonfreshrob This makes zero sense. A router is just a hub point for the devices that are connected to it. If the internet connection is down then yes ofc there will be no connectivity to the *outside* world, but devices connected to it should still talk—unless the router is config’d wrong

  • CoLRyWi Colin RylanderWilkes (@CoLRyWi) reported

    @virginmedia No but there never is, the hub still is getting nothing, tv is perfectly fine in all rooms, just the hub that’s getting nothing. It’s ridiculous. Think Virgin need to come out and install a cable just for the hub

  • GINDER57993461 GINDER (@GINDER57993461) reported

    @virginmedia Lost the will to live…pressed ‘I want to cancel service’ button and spoke to someone!!! Only took 3 days to work it out!

  • sielilley qwerty (@sielilley) reported

    @virginmedia So are you saying the area issues is resolved. I thought it was related to an underground explosion impacting the whole of south east London. All my neighbours are still not working also.

  • Heathermomo Heathermomo (@Heathermomo) reported

    @virginmedia How do you cancel a broadband contract? You've been charging me for 3 months since I moved to a different provider!!

  • shaunjames85 shaun (@shaunjames85) reported

    @virginmedia 21st really gonna take u 5 days to fix it. 5 days?????. What are you doing? People can’t go 5 days with no internet. Everything has to be done online nowadays.

  • lemonfreshrob Rob Morris (@lemonfreshrob) reported

    @virginmedia The outage has. I gather it's a problem affecting a lot of South London at the moment. But I don't see why I can't have a wifi inside my flat just because there's no connection to outside. Bad design of the hub.

  • beggs_russell Russell Beggs⚽ (@beggs_russell) reported

    @joebhoy08 @virginmedia Ended up calling again and actually got someone this time. I have to wait until Tuesday for a technician to come out. Pin hole reset is my last hope as advised by the call handler , I’m not putting any money on it working. Every 2-4 months there is an issue.

  • NeilSomerville Neil Somerville (@NeilSomerville) reported

    @virginmedia No issues there and says there’s no issues with my devices when a test is run.

  • Cliffyboy13 Nigel Cliff (Old *** With A Camera) (@Cliffyboy13) reported

    @virginmedia My 92 year old mother in law had had a letter saying that due to "maintenance" her phone may be down for 2 days and to make other arrangements. She has no mobile and that will also mean her alarm pendant will be down, how can she make other arrangements.
