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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • LeanneChapman81 Leanne Chapman (@LeanneChapman81) reported from Newhaven, England

    @SkyHelpTeam so having done every test under the sun and spending 1 hour and 20 mins on the phone to the ‘help team’ I’m still suffering with pathetic WiFi and have to wait till Feb 4th for a visit! @virginmedia hurry up and come to Newhaven! #notimpressed

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • marmite22 Jesse Baker 🇪🇺 (@marmite22) reported from Hove, England

    Work from home specifically to go on an all day conference call and @virginmedia goes down. Unbelievable.

  • 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)

  • 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...

  • 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

  • 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!

  • 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

  • mcoll72 Martin Coll (@mcoll72) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @virginmedia Poor handling of my complaint. Left without internet for 2 week when tried to move house with you. Was told that new address wasn’t covered when it was! took 2 days off work to sort! Compensation offered inadequate

    @virginmedia since Wednesday my WiFi and TV has been going off on a regular basis. It's happening again now. The fault status says there are updates being done but this was the same on Wednesday. I'm in Childwall, liverpool can you confirm there's an issue?

  • lilacjennie Jennie (@lilacjennie) reported

    @fkurfeefeesbruh @virginmedia I'm so angry. Keep being fobbed off on the phone. No TV service to one TiVo box since Thursday. They will soon chase if I delay payment won't they 😡

  • joolsparker Jools Parker (@joolsparker) reported

    @virginmedia Total customer service fail. FOUR HOURS on chat on Friday and still phone upgrade not sorted. Last agent was about to complete then said shift over & cut me off. Email to Head Office ignored. Is complaining repeatedly on social media the only way to get a response?

  • JohnSpiers5 John Spiers 💙 (@JohnSpiers5) reported

    @virginmedia no TV, phone or internet. Area 22 east London. Had better service during national outage. What's going on and what ETA?

  • wdwfan1973 Annabel 💙🎧 (@wdwfan1973) reported

    @virginmedia No it doesn’t at all, after I’ve done the checks it asks me if it fixed the issue and there’s no option for no, it just asks me to rerun the tests.

  • BenjiMaxwell Ben Maxwell (@BenjiMaxwell) reported

    @virginmedia We had issues when you turned our internet to force us to upgrade internet? Can’t wAit for your reply in 6 days

  • RonCharlton6 Ron Charlton (@RonCharlton6) reported

    @virginmedia We did but it seems to have disappeared over the last week or so, we did have some issues which resulted in my son losing two days work as he works from home, and since then it has not been same

  • carrienicholas9 carrie nicholas (@carrienicholas9) reported

    @virginmedia 3 days with no TV at all, been told it would be back on in 4 hours.That was yesterday lunchtime!This morning you sent a signal to my box to get it back on and still nothing!! I was even told not to ask for an engineer to come out and try to fix my box as I'd be charged £25.

  • LeighEmm1 Louise (@LeighEmm1) reported

    @virginmedia If everyone read their emails about outage then they shouldn't moan, another outage Tuesday 7th Dec, let's see how many people moan again.

  • JHippeh JustSoHippeh (@JHippeh) reported

    @virginmedia I cant even pay my bill, The site wont let me pay because there is "problems" and I cant call either because you guys spelt my security answer WRONG and wont change it every time I request it being changed and I can't even get in touch...
