Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Portishead and North Weston and nearby locations:

  • rjgux Richard George (@rjgux) reported from Kingswood, England

    @dangerous_85 @virginmedia I really don’t see the point in the service checker. There’s clearly an issue but still says ‘No known issues’. Rediculous

  • amias Cut and Pastryarch (@amias) reported from Bristol, England

    @albanwr @cybergibbons I don't use any of my Samsung TVs smart features and deny it network access for that exact reason. But my virgin media V6 box and Netflix account are happily sending sweet something back all the time.

  • Bridgey21 Emma Blackburn (@Bridgey21) reported from Backwell, England

    @virginmedia my WiFi is not working despite paying someone to install it and about 7 hours of troubleshooting so far. One of your agents was helping me and was supposed to call me back 25 minutes ago but hasn’t yet and booster issue still not fixed

  • bobktheking Bob Krysiak (@bobktheking) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia I have had a terrible experience with Roshan technical support at virgin media. After reporting a fault with my WIFI network three times, he put the phone down on me. These technical support people are arrogant rude and not helpful at all!

  • AdamLee2011 Adam Lee (@AdamLee2011) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia there seems to be an issue with tv and broadband in np20 area. Please sort it out, I’m missing the football #virginmedia #fault

  • cymboi MH 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺 (@cymboi) reported from St. Julians, Wales

    @virginmedia I’ve said this more than once before on here and I’ll say it again. VM broadband is crap!! Their Wi-fi is shi., keeps cutting out yet they promise it is better and stronger. Don’t believe it!! The old router was far better than this rubbish!!!

  • DigitalJonathan Jonathan Phillips (@DigitalJonathan) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia To repeat, your service drops for a few minutes a day. By the time I check, it’s back. It absolutely frustrates me. On Tuesday, 4mins *just as I needed to start a Skype w a customer*. > 2

  • DigitalJonathan Jonathan Phillips (@DigitalJonathan) reported from Bristol, England

    Hey @virginmedia - down again. No. You DM me. You fill in your form. You call an engineer. I’m extremely tired of shit service. I’m running my business hotspotting from my @ThreeUK iPhone while your broadband does... oh I dunno.

  • OfficialCurtiss Curtis_Tyler (@OfficialCurtiss) reported from Cwmbran Central, Wales

    @virginmedia have got to be the worst company to go with for broadband. Paying the “best broadband “ yet it drops every week. Trying to order a booster is a ******* nightmare , absolutely joke, shouldn’t even left SKY. Tamping 😡😤

  • xChuChux911 Hi, call me Chu x (@xChuChux911) reported from Bristol, England

    @NightAtKendalls @virginmedia Actually my whole electrics cut out x

  • iantosh4 Ian McIntosh (@iantosh4) reported from Newport, Wales

    @virginmedia Very frustrating as seem to just go around in circles with the same issues! Could you arrange for someone to call 2mo to discuss and resolve please (Save me calling and waiting again)

  • olikend oliver kendall (@olikend) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia also was offer a system that would improve the WiFi in the house. The netgear pl1000 arrived yesterday and doesn’t give me@any further WiFi coverage. It just extends the network. I only have the one router..

  • DigitalJonathan Jonathan Phillips (@DigitalJonathan) reported from Bristol, England

    God you’re hopeless @virginmedia . If I was as poor as you, I’d be out of a job. Broadband down again in BS6. Just another irritating 7mins. Never long enough to fill in your engineers form.

  • iestyntdavies Iestyn T Davies (@iestyntdavies) reported from Newport, Wales

    Just been told by @Bluebells048 that I need to ring @virginmedia customer services ... for the 2nd time today - epic fail again people!

  • CGBadley Chris Badley (@CGBadley) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Yea, yea. I’ll just carry on being a long term customer mug until my year’s up thanks

  • mikelind2 Mike Lind 🦏 (@mikelind2) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia - your pathetic service continues. Please get your customer service team to respond to my complaint URGENTLY. 706480004

  • olikend oliver kendall (@olikend) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia Thanks the router was out next to the tv by the outside wall, so we’ve never been able to use the WiFi in other parts of the house. It really only works well in that room.

  • DaveWilliams159 discodave (@DaveWilliams159) reported from Patchway, England

    @virginmedia had the phone disconnected on me 4 times already this morning trying to speak to your complaints team for over 2 hours today!! Shocking service 😡

  • slip_rehill slip_rehill (@slip_rehill) reported from Bristol, England

    @virginmedia thanks, we'd checked that already and no issues. we have tv back but no on demand or broadband yet.

  • rimibar ɹɐqᴉɯᴉɹ (@rimibar) reported from Bristol, England

    I ask to speak to a Manager, you put me straight through to a line that says it's now closed, call back tomorrow. That's 32 minutes of my life wasted. Bad service, badly trained call centre staff, not happy @virginmedia

  • wardy_uk Nick Ward (@wardy_uk) reported

    @virginmedia 2 hours waiting so far to ask why I’m paying for a service that’s almost 2 weeks late being activated - is this acceptable?

  • JWilliamsKunt John Williams (@JWilliamsKunt) reported

    I hope @VirginVoyages are better than their internet service. #virginmedia

  • Ellpeegram Michael Phillips (@Ellpeegram) reported

    @virginmedia This morning I saw a message that I need to download an update of Virgin Mobile Network software, clicked & it didn’t download..can’t find the notification anymore, mobile network all flat on my phone, I can only make wifi calls

  • KirkbyScouser *KirkbyRedScouser⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (@KirkbyScouser) reported

    Turns out the white cable coming from the back of the Virgin box the splitter had loosened🥴 apologies for my recent rants ( your service is still below what’s expected from a high end business. @virginmedia

  • marty18519068 marty (@marty18519068) reported

    @virginmedia after 2 hrs phone w/ virgin, rebooting, etc no solution & they said red light means nothing. I am 80 yrs and alone. if there's a fire, etc virginmedia is directly responsible. i have recorded it all. this cannot be right, much less humane

  • Skibird217 Tigerfeet💙 (@Skibird217) reported

    @virginmedia It’s been saying there’s no known issue but we have a dead line, it’s been logged and a manager was meant to call us back earlier but maybe his phone is broken too! 😜

  • leeezemak the anxi3ty (@leeezemak) reported

    Of course virgin media is down during the recoupling #loveIsland

  • Digger525 Andy Hill (@Digger525) reported

    @virginmedia TV and Broadband not working called to report fault and told that Techician needs to call, promised it would be tomorrow but now told not til Monday. Wonder how long it would take @SkyUK to come and install? #crapservicevirgin

  • mdbethell_ Matthew Bethell (@mdbethell_) reported

    @virginmedia Internet down completely again, twice within a month. Surely we are liable to leave with the inconsistent service?

  • Skibird217 Tigerfeet💙 (@Skibird217) reported

    @virginmedia It’s a pity that your call centre didn’t know what was going on but thanks for the update … hope it’s not as long as my landline which is still broken a week on!
