Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Oakington and Westwick, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Oakington and Westwick and nearby locations:

  • GoMcMahon #LITFL (@GoMcMahon) reported from Saint Ives, England

    @BBCWatchdog can't believe you placed @virginmedia 4th in your comparison. Their customer service is the WORST! Non-UK based poor phone support, prices forever going up, and rubbish hardware.

  • DrWonkenstein 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿Angus🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@DrWonkenstein) reported from Burwell, England

    @virginmedia Yes I am, connected to the internet but it barely works and when it does is slow, download speed is 3mbps when it’s normally like 60

  • byron_hinson Byron Hinson (@byron_hinson) reported from Saint Ives, England

    @virginmedia Yes says 30 mins again. But the main status site says no issues.

  • ChrisRandWrites Chris Rand (@ChrisRandWrites) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia I realise Twitter is not the best place to have this conversation but your online agent couldn't organise any help ("the system won't let me") unless I found someone with a different laptop, so it seems worth a shot.

  • michelledh Michelle D Harris - Social Media (@michelledh) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @tumness93 @virginmedia Same - every year I get a fix date since 2013 - over ultisation and old equipment ... but I get discount ... so tell them and log it all.

  • GoMcMahon #DocMartin (@GoMcMahon) reported from Saint Ives, England

    @virginmedia I've read all the useless help countless times (in the hope that one day you actually include something useful). Yes, I've tried everything, and no it never resolves the issue.

  • GarethPJBaldwin Gareth Baldwin (@GarethPJBaldwin) reported from Hemingford Grey, England

    5th Day running, internet fail, on hold for FORTY MINS and counting , Virgin Media this is simply not good enough, keep taking the money but not dealing with issue #VirginMedia

  • Kimberley88 Kimberley Barnard (@Kimberley88) reported from Papworth Everard, England

    @virginmedia I was meant to have my virgin media installed back on the 23rd and it didn't happen due to a wayleave. Was told to leave it with you guys and you'd let me know. Its now the 4th October and still no communication from you at all. Very poor service.

  • Sibby_Sibthorpe Pete Sibthorpe (@Sibby_Sibthorpe) reported from Over, England

    @virginmedia I have been yes. WiFi service from router. I’ve rebooted several times.

  • pinski1_ The Fallen (@pinski1_) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia Still down, your website is still wrong.

  • GoMcMahon #LITFL (@GoMcMahon) reported from Saint Ives, England

    @virginmedia I have been a customer for 20yrs, have a minimal service broadband, tv and phone and pay £60/m. There's no match in current bundles. The nearest offer to new customers has more tv, less broadband but costs only £38/m for 12 months then £69 This is just wrong!

  • k10Aug karen mackintosh (@k10Aug) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @weemazsmith @virginmedia Oh god Maz, I left them 4 yrs ago, nothing but trouble & customer service were always rude & dismissive, I also found they were still taking direct debits for a mobile phone contract 2 months after it was terminated! Bin them!! Xx

  • k10Aug karen mackintosh (@k10Aug) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @weemazsmith @virginmedia Yes had that & it wasn't until I cancelled everything that I got the DD issue. If you don't want to leave them, ask for disconnection, they have a different attitude, but the issues re connection continued for me xx

  • byron_hinson Byron Hinson (@byron_hinson) reported from Saint Ives, England

    @virginmedia got problem with less than 1mb download speeds at the moment and service status test of equipment says that there is an issue that’ll be fixed in 30 mins. That was 2 hours ago and no improvement. Area 31

  • Sibby_Sibthorpe Pete Sibthorpe (@Sibby_Sibthorpe) reported from Over, England

    @virginmedia why can I never get through to your support team.

  • ChrisRandWrites Chris Rand (@ChrisRandWrites) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia No problem! Hub 3. Speed just not as hoped. It's some sort of street-to-house issue, acknowledged by a technician on a previous visit. Separate (Google) WiFi is rock solid.

  • Kimberley88 Kimberley Barnard (@Kimberley88) reported from Papworth Everard, England

    @virginmedia Thanks rung them got no answers but mostly that it sounds like no one is coming and then got hung up on. This sounds like the beginning of us not having the greatest service afterall

  • SJE1981 Stephen Edwards (@SJE1981) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @VoteBrexmas @Beckski93 @virginmedia To be honest, I tried speed running uncharted at the beginning of the year, still not completed it. Being a parent sucks at times.

  • Andrewocd Andrew Maynard (@Andrewocd) reported from Eltisley, England

    @JustisMatt @virginmedia @SkyUK You can get out easily. They haven’t performed their side of the contract so they have broken it .

  • pinski1_ The Fallen (@pinski1_) reported from Cambridgeshire, England

    @virginmedia Oh and as I'm renting I don't have a Virgin Home phone or account number. So that was a couple of minutes wasted to be told that there are no problems.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • PromisesRust Promises Rust (@PromisesRust) reported

    @virginmedia Anyway, would you tell me the correct contact details to escalate this to an official complaint as I asked three times in the whataspp thread and no-one gave us the info? I think the log of this thread needs to go to the regulator to see how bad it was.

  • PromisesRust Promises Rust (@PromisesRust) reported

    @virginmedia Cancellation could take a few seconds (a cancel button on virginmedia account page), a couple of minutes (an email address) so the fact that cancellation is such a long, expensive and painful process is a deliberate choice by Virgin. So they need to be stopped.

  • pxzpazpxz p a z (@pxzpazpxz) reported

    @virginmedia actually no, you shouldn’t be asking, it’s none of your business but since we’re here already: I can’t hear. gonna help me cancel it now?

  • EdwardcB1968 Edward Blunt (@EdwardcB1968) reported

    @SueSuezep @virginmedia ..? Poor customer services..?absolutely no loyalty to existing customers especially ones of 30 years.. new customers massive monthly savings on broadband, old customers pay full price

  • PromisesRust Promises Rust (@PromisesRust) reported

    @virginmedia .@ofcom must surely be aware how difficult Virgin make cancellation. All they need to do is require internet providers to have cancel button on website like almost all online subscription companies do. I can't even escalate to .@ofcom as Virgin refuse to start complaint process.

  • PromisesRust Promises Rust (@PromisesRust) reported

    @virginmedia Sure, we went through that for 5 hours, pinged between the same person more than once, security checked successfully multiple times until the final person decided we had failed the latest check and terminate the thread.

  • PaddyV4 Gerard Barden (@PaddyV4) reported

    @virginmedia Thank you - i appreciate the reply. Nonetheless there has been an intermittent issue for weeks, if not months. Given inability to fix this over that time, I’m honestly pretty low on confidence and you have this in hand.

  • fay_jon_ 🍃⭕️protector of frogs🍃 (@fay_jon_) reported

    @virginmedia had your customer retention team literally hang up on me when they said they put me through to the cancellation team? Spent an hour trying to get through, and now I have no way of actually cancelling my contract. Feel like I’m being mugged

  • Shogunduckula vincent ruscoe (@Shogunduckula) reported

    @virginmedia No error message, the app just closed down on all devices

  • ImogeenCooper 𝕴𝖒𝖔𝖌𝖊𝖓 (@ImogeenCooper) reported

    @virginmedia This happens at least once a week and nothing has been done. We have made phone calls etc. We want out of the contract if you are not providing us with the service we were promised by signing an agreement with you.
