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

  • JoeHolmes1994 Joe (@JoeHolmes1994) reported from Leigh, England

    @virginmedia I need to cancel a engineer appointment for Wednesday. I’ve already been on the phone 40 minutes and I’m not waiting any longer especially after being told ‘we’ll prioritise you’. Please cancel it otherwise it’s a pointless trip for your engineer

  • Kayls3457 Kayleigh Speakman (@Kayls3457) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia I appreciate that, however, this is not the first time and I'm guessing it won't be the last. Praying a lot of money for a service that doesn't work!

  • Allenwalkden Woggy (@Allenwalkden) reported from St Helens, England

    .@virginmedia it's Christmas Eve and your crappy internet is down again, can't stream any films, been shocking service all year

  • josie_allan Jo Mclaughlin (@josie_allan) reported from Horwich, England

    I’m not sure how we could overcome WIFI access but surely there is a way that friendly bods @SkyUK @virginmedia could support to stop children missing out on remote teaching - digital poverty sucks

  • LiamRLaverick Liam Laverick (@LiamRLaverick) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia literally THE worst internet provider. Nothing but trouble since we switched from Sky. Engineers been out twice and still losing connection constantly. Had to turn off the WIFI to even tweet this 😡

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Sigh. Yet another @virginmedia broadband issue where it’s gone down. Again. Feels like this is a monthly thing now.

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia You are not listening. I understand it fluctuates. What I mean is why have I had an acceptable 300meg signal for 11 months & now it’s dropped to below half that? 4 phone calls & two technician visits can’t sort it???? I want what I had!

  • wilsonbecks1 Rebecca Wilson 🌈 (@wilsonbecks1) reported from Bolton, England

    I would be grateful if someone from customer services at @virginmedia could contact me regarding the lack of service received since moving over to @virginmedia

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia I had a problem a few weeks back and couldn’t get through to you because of the queues, I expect it’s the same now. I should learn my lesson and move to another provider I think.

  • AndyMcK1982 Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia The technician came on Wednesday & did a wired connection test. We are only getting 180meg which is terrible considering we are paying for 300meg! My children can’t get a signal at all whereas they were fine before! Two visits and still not resolved!

  • emma1995_louise emma louise crowther (@emma1995_louise) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia desperately in need of some help

  • GeoffJonners Geoff Johnson (@GeoffJonners) reported from Bolton, England

    Any chance you can sort this picture issue out @virginmedia

  • mallen_87 Matt Allen 🔶 (@mallen_87) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia I would like to cancel my services with you. When I go online to do this I’m directed to call in. When I call in the IVR directs me online. Can you help?

  • PammyVegas21 Pamela Lavell (@PammyVegas21) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia I was going to go to a better provider but was assured that the price was guaranteed until May 2021. You have broken the terms of the contract AGAIN. How many mature citizens who aren’t as computer savvy get ripped off by you? How is this being allowed to happen? Shame on you

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia It just says it looks like I can’t get on the internet and it recommends an engineer to come out. On the FOURTH OF JANUARY. During a pandemic when I’m working from home. I left @virginmedia because your service kept dropping, some things never change.

  • Bolt100Wands boltonbwfc (@Bolt100Wands) reported from Bolton, England

    Once again @virginmedia tried to ring you but your customer care is shocking. I know of over 100 people plus in the Bolton area with continuing pixelating on ur TV Service which means you cannot watch TV! This needs sorting ASAP! Shocking service and unacceptable with what I pay!

  • Shinpad11 Mackie 🇪🇺🌹☘️🇸🇱 (@Shinpad11) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia yet another day blighted with intermittent connection. What on earth is happening with your broadband service? Woeful. #Wigan

  • Bolt100Wands boltonbwfc (@Bolt100Wands) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia an absolute disgrace all night the pixelating of every channel on our boxes plus all Bolton the same! Service Status saying nothing wrong! Sort it Virgin! We pay for a service!

  • emmawinstanley1 emma2511 (@emmawinstanley1) reported from Aspull, England

    @virginmedia finding it very difficult to get through to someone to discuss technical support please help

  • Kayls3457 Kayleigh Speakman (@Kayls3457) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia Again fully appreciate and understand that. However, elderly vulnerable person has to rely on this service and it is intermittent and not reliable

  • alison59307514 alison (@alison59307514) reported

    @virginmedia No I haven’t received any notification of this at all. Can you let me know who is able to help me please? Your call centre advisor said I should use the online chat function but I tried this for hours last night and didn’t get a reply.

  • specialarks Raul (@specialarks) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the generic responses. However, I would specifically like to know the details of the fault in my area. I’m not concerned about all the other issues you are having. Again, who can call me and explain to me what is going on. not interested in generic or redirections.

  • LordMole Gary (@LordMole) reported

    @virginmedia Is it a forum or a help desk?

  • zdlifestyle_ ZDLifestyle (@zdlifestyle_) reported

    @virginmedia And saying we can’t do anything- awful customer service - even the advisor after reading my notes said I don’t know how are still calm - I have put in official complaint to who virgin media is regulated by - thank you and enjoy your day !

  • AllotmentOwner Jason Johns (@AllotmentOwner) reported

    @virginmedia It went down yesterday afternoon for 20 minutes, then went down again in the evening and has only just come back. Had no internet or tv since about 9pm last night

  • LordMole Gary (@LordMole) reported

    @virginmedia This has been ongoing for ages. But the worst thing is the lack of customer service. Having to take to social media to get any contact is terrible. But hey, you want to increase my bill for a service that I am not really receiving, so there is that.

  • LordMole Gary (@LordMole) reported

    @virginmedia If you read the messages above, surely@you realise that I have been trying to do this. Perhaps rather than throw responsibility back at me, virgin could take ownership of the problem their service and be proactive?

  • Elizabe37899475 Elizabeth W (@Elizabe37899475) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, its still not working. I'm not a happy customer especially as I've had notification that my bill is going up by £4 a month... Time to switch as I'm out of contract

  • andy00169146 andy (@andy00169146) reported from Spelthorne District, England

    @virginmedia Dreadful customer service. Like others, waited nearly an hour on the phone only to get mucked about because I couldn’t instantly recall the name of my package. No help at all, representative wouldn’t transfer me and hung up.

  • EndeanJeff Jeff Endean (@EndeanJeff) reported

    @virginmedia No they don’t answer, have to say your customer service is appalling
