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

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia That’s where I started, two days ago. The live chat sent me over to the WhatsApp service, so I wouldn’t be ******* waiting on my phone etc. I’ve given my details so many times, I practically know my account number by heart now. If you look through the chat history, you can see

  • twiddlemeister Dave/Давид 🇺🇦 (@twiddlemeister) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia All status checkers say no outage reported, which is rubbish because I know of at least 4 people who have reported issues in this area.

  • dublinelaine Elaine (@dublinelaine) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia tried all day to get through on phone to discuss end of contract notification. No joy. Left on hold and then cut off. How do we get to speak to someone. Shocking service.

  • dublinelaine Elaine (@dublinelaine) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Done that. Have been in a queue since 8.30am. No joy. Do we have to spend the whole day like we did yesterday trying to get through? Never come across such shocking service from any company before

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Then please at least have the grace to tell me so. I’ve been a customer so long you’d think I might be due some support, but this last year has just been dreadful. I’ve taken a phone contract I don’t want and been unable to get explanation for billing variances. It’s just ****.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Sorry. I was ******* emailing you my complaint. I am available now, if this is just the five minute process I was promised. I simply just want to get this dealt with…

  • izzwoz Warrenesco Jacksonovakov (@izzwoz) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @iainmcm1 @virginmedia They cut two of my calls off after just over 1hr. 8 hours on WhatsApp yesterday and Retentions never responded. Back to back of queue today. Disgraceful

  • RHJOfficial яєαℓιѕт נανѕтαн 💻🖱 (@RHJOfficial) reported from Oldham, England

    I don't WTF your customer service team are doing, from transferring me to the moving team, then being transferred to cancellation, then put on hold twice, now it looks like I'm being transferred back to the moving team. @virginmedia - shambolic!

  • Joe95976011 Joe (@Joe95976011) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia worst customer service ever

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’m hoping to speak to the movers team on WhatsApp. I’ve now had an actual human being the line, who says I’ll be connected soon. But that’s what the messages about have said every time. 🙄 I can book in for 1.30 on Monday, but I’ll cancel if I speak to someone sooner, ofc

  • dublinelaine Elaine (@dublinelaine) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia On phone now since 0830 this morning. Still on hold. Also tried on what's app. Still waiting to be put in contact with an agent. Shocking service

  • Natterback Mrs Jordan -Johnson (@Natterback) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia and once again we have no Internet services. This is without doubt a terrible service.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia than it’s worth, even after being with your service since it launched.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia This the second time I’ve been on hold for an agent today. Just started the third time. I’d also note, in the bottom message, there is no ‘handy link’. There never is. I may have had that message more than ten times now. I just want to tell someone our new address before we move

  • twiddlemeister Dave/Давид 🇺🇦 (@twiddlemeister) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Yes it’s an outage and not an issue with our modem, or else others wouldn’t be affected. I’m on your business line, and whilst I appreciate that might not be something you can look at directly, it’s clearly an issue that needs resolving for everybody.

  • Natterback Mrs Jordan -Johnson (@Natterback) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia the advert offering new customers Superfast Broadband for £20. Is it not right that you take care of your loyal customers first, those that have been with you for 10 years plus. Considering the energy situation it would help.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia And I’m at the limit of my stress capacity. Please let me tell someone our moving date and transfer our services, or cancel my contract. I’m tired of this now. I really am genuinely sick of this, to the point where it’s impacting my health. If you don’t want my custom…

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to do this via WhatsApp for three days now. I’m in a never ending loop of getting to the point where I’m referred to a agent, in the queue, & a couple of hours later, I get asked if I’m moving house, and the whole process starts again. It’s has just started again

  • izzwoz Warrenesco Jacksonovakov (@izzwoz) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia Seems your business model is never answer when someone wants to leave. 8 hours on WhatsApp yesterday totally ignored by Retentions. Queuing on phone again 30min probably get cut again after 1 hour.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Altho, I’m not sure how I would cancel it…

  • gazsax Gary Saxby (@gazsax) reported

    @virginmedia hi guys can you confirm if you are having any broadband issues in the SM4 postcode. Your email says it’s fine then issues then fine again.

  • MueenPasha5 Mueen Pasha (@MueenPasha5) reported

    @virginmedia I am contacting them through Whatsapp, as my previous experience calling is that I will wait ages to get through, then the advisor will hang up or disconnect the call either by mistake or because they don't want to deal with the matter.

  • lns2022uk LN Complains (@lns2022uk) reported

    @virginmedia Maybe i'm getting old before my time, but when I was younger and infact worked in call centers myself, when someone said "can i speak to a manager" they could speak to one on that call not wait 72 hours to speak to them. In what world is that good customer service?

  • leonspight Leon Spight (@leonspight) reported

    @virginmedia Hi there what’s the issue in TW12 as all services TV, phone and broadband have been down since approx 10am. Also the Virgin Media mobile service appears to be impacted as well as services are running very slow?

  • CreasyEmma Emma Creasy (@CreasyEmma) reported

    @virginmedia Just adding to issues for my complaint to CISAS - promised a web chat at 6, shock I’ve been sent nothing

  • Robert_spyhack Robert_spyhacker (@Robert_spyhack) reported

    @chrishenry88 @virginmedia There’s a good chance of recovery. message me @Robert_spyhack on Twitter or insta would help you recover you account.hit me up.

  • BatgirlRocksxo Gem (@BatgirlRocksxo) reported

    @virginmedia No, didn’t know there were issues in the area. A lot of households in the area lost wifi around 9am this morning, which is when this “work” began, supposed to have finished by 3pm but we still can’t get online. Router is solid green line or flashing green line and green arrows.

  • BarrySalkin Barry Salkin (@BarrySalkin) reported

    @virginmedia Because you’d not want to be sure to give correct info on notice to disconnect in a thread about customer being given incorrect info on notice to disconnect… Folks who didn’t have any other option for TV (if reasons not to have a Sky dish) and/or folks who previously only (1/n)

  • Seb_lr Seb (@Seb_lr) reported

    @virginmedia adopted a new sales technique? Placing orders on my behalf without myself explicitly confirming if I’d like to proceed, then calling to fix the issue and being told I can’t cancel it…

  • TomFoolerySays Tom Parker (@TomFoolerySays) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry but that's unacceptable, I've now got to call you for the 18th time to sort the same issue. I've lost days of work, money and patience down to this. I expect my broadband to be fixed tomorrow and a reimbursement of my funds.
