Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Wigan, England
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Wigan and nearby locations:
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke
-
owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia We have. Multiple times. Your agents don't know how to help. Spoke to 3 different people. I'm getting contant update emails. I don't need to check the service. I know its down. This is beyond ridiculous. I work from home, I can't do my job because of your terrible service.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Telling me an engineer will come next week now, not good enough. Waited in all morning for one that never came and still no service.
-
Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia The nightmare continues!!! Buffering is now a way of life for us. As is watching any programme on a streaming service in short two minute bites!
-
Gary Banks (@GaryBan47314801) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia This is not the first time. The service the last 12 months has been shocking And now you're asking for the over the top increase in monthly payments 😡😡😡
-

-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia I totally agree, unfortunately this is not something you have been able to arrange for me for the last 3 months either. 👍 What's the solution?

-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia No, they just left. Rang your customer service they are now telling me the problem is internal. I’ve had no internet since July, no tv since August. It’s beyond a joke now. 5 visits I’ve had.
-
Graeme Radebe (@Radebreast) reported from Ormskirk, England@virginmedia what have you done to the Sky TV app - its constantly buffering and showing error messages. Just awful service. Please can you get this sorted ASAP please.
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.
-
Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England@virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently
-
John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported from St Helens, England@CruisingTheCut I’ve had very few issues with virgin media - depends if you need TV though. Otherwise I’ve heard very good things about over the air using the three network or EE.
-
Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England@virginmedia Been signed up to a contract I specifically asked not to be. Unable to get through on the phone and your online complaint submission form does not work. Can someone please contact me urgently
-
Emma (@EmmaZhaan64) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia according to your representative my wifi is working perfectly and I don’t have any issues! That’s a bit odd considering I no service what so ever!
-
CryptoDan2k (@CryptoDan2k) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia Are you wanting me to comment in the broadband section? Can you explain the benefits of this as you won't send an engineer out if there is an issue constantly in the area and your tech team are already aware of it, plus I have the ofcom complaint aswell?
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.
-

💜🐝 (@cmairsy) reported@Marie_0612 @virginmedia Nope absolutely didn’t bother trying to keep me as a customer even though I’ve been with them for years. Got some good offers from others online so their loss! Shame but I guess it’s modern times no customer care but glad you got some!

Michael Portal (@Mortalportal01) reported@virginmedia @O2 Hi. In this instance speaking through Virgin Media, it was set up without my knowledge and without a written or verbal contract. I am in the middle of this mess now and have looked a complaint. Thank you
-
Michael Portal (@Mortalportal01) reported@MartinSLewis Hi Martin. Are you aware of the scam between Virgin Media and 02? They hound you with calls, set you up as an existing VM customer, and then unknown to you, you have an 02 threatning letter asking for £30 a month. This was not agreed to or even known...help 🙏
-
standfreered (@standfreered1) reported@virginmedia is this acceptable treatment of your elderly customers? You have sent, twice, pre contract documents, today, offering her the service for £49 per month
