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

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

    @virginmedia Internet gone again. Second time today. Bottom light goes white and starts flashing, then green and flashing. Then the arrows light up green and flash. I can’t get 24 hours out of this service. This isn’t what I pay for and it’s terrible service.

  • springviewer John Edgar (@springviewer) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia As per usual there’ll be no problems in the area, I’ll get told to unplug the box, then you’ll book an engineer for about 5days time, meanwhile the problem magically disappears #badservice

  • flux_blair Alex Downes (@flux_blair) reported from Liverpool, England

    Just had a call from @virginmedia asking me what I use my network for, how many devices I have on the network. Please mind your own business, answers to these questions can be used by OCGs to target my home and only call me if you really have to. Thanks

  • rian951 Rian Murray (@rian951) reported from Westhoughton, England

    @virginmedia Well unless you can help with a booster - customer services wanted £360 for an EE one! Most other providers offer WiFi Calling!

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

    @virginmedia You could at least have an option to call back customers rather than keeping them on hold. Again, this is really poor customer service.

  • Kimbow21 Mrs K E (@Kimbow21) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I’m not bothered now we have left . The guy who answered the phone couldn’t be less interested . Every thing he was saying was on a card . He was very un professional and didn’t understand English fully . So he can’t be bothered to help I can’t be bothered .

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

    @virginmedia And this is why I don’t bother calling you for the most part. The service desk where I work are in trouble if customers are on hold for 20 seconds. Virgin are a huge company and can’t afford a call centre where customers don’t have to wait 15 mins (so far) on hold.

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

    30 mins on hold to @virginmedia so far. Absolutely awful customer service. Again.

  • aish_a_ aisha (@aish_a_) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia u sent me a new router like a month ago and this connection is SLOWER than the router that was over 10 years old I’m basically sat on top of it and I’ve never experienced slower WiFi

  • CRMann78 NYPD Blue (@CRMann78) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Been with Virgin for 5 days of dreadful customer service, how can a mobile set up result in loss of all subscribed tv channels, held in queue for over an hour is the norm, will be cancelling my contract due to this total mismanagement #VirginMediaSucks

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

    So that’s @virginmedia cancelled off and their poor effort at a service. I had more reliable service with dial-up! Now signed up with @SkyUK and hoping they can at least provide me internet that I can use for a day without it going off constantly.

  • JoelLJelen JoelJelen (@JoelLJelen) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia it’s 2019, your online customer service is so poor and your offline telephone service saw me waiting 15 mins and still in a queue! Given up.

  • GrahamEdgington Graham Edgington (@GrahamEdgington) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia receive a final account for £63 and that would be the end of things. The final account never arrived however the outstanding account has been passed to BPOB collections who bumped it up to £269.96. I have paid the account off, so sincerely hope that Mr Branson 1/3

  • elisanarbs Elisa Narborough (@elisanarbs) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia no internet for two hours now: Wifi light green and base light is flashing green, service status in wa1 area said no known issues, please help!

  • BeStrongBolton Be Strong Daz (@BeStrongBolton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia an absolute shambles broadband service for the last 3 weeks and not scheduled to be fixed until 9th Sept 2019.

  • Kimbow21 kimberley Goodinson (@Kimbow21) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I’m disgusted I’ve been a customer for 15 years and more . You’ve put the price up by £20. The very unhelpful person on the phone offered me a £2 discount . Disgusting back to Sky .

  • GrahamEdgington Graham Edgington (@GrahamEdgington) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia My Mother in law recently went into care with the late stages of Alzheimers and as power of attorney of her affairs I have tried to cancel her phone contract however your customers service did not want to know. They marked the file closed and said I would 1/3

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

    Aaaaand @virginmedia broadband is down again. Useless.

  • spuddy1878 Neil (@spuddy1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Two different mobile phones and no joy at all. It’s picking up another WiFi signal from someone else but not from my home.

  • aish_a_ aisha (@aish_a_) reported from Bolton, England

    Virgin media is so ******* SHIT sick of this life

  • timney87 Ben Timney (@timney87) reported

    @virginmedia I've got WiFi blackspots appearing in my home that I never used to have, it's almost like the Hub 4 performance is deteriorating. One blackspot means my 2nd V6 box keeps loosing connection. The router hasn't changed location and no settings have changed.

  • 747Anj Anj ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 (@747Anj) reported

    @virginmedia I have spoken to 3 customer service agents all in your Indian call centre, some via mobile chat, some via web chat. All tell me sorry there is nothing they can do. Some give me false information such as I can get a free WI-FI dongle. All they are trained to do is provide excuses.

  • 747Anj Anj ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 (@747Anj) reported

    @virginmedia ..an adjustment of my initial bill due to the month’s delay in getting my service?

  • 747Anj Anj ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 (@747Anj) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, you did cancel my existing services because it was triggered by a landline number port, & I got a letter from TalkTalk confirming because of this, service will be cancelled on 20/12. However as it is Sunday, I cannot contact them. Am I entitled to auto compensation or..

  • barry_gelfand Barry Gelfand (@barry_gelfand) reported

    @virginmedia What is that going to achieve. No one wants to sort the issues out. How many people am I expected to talk to? You suggest I call one of the numbers, which area am I asking for?

  • brooklands911 tony (@brooklands911) reported

    @virginmedia No was meant to be here 17th between 8am-6pm and no tracking number given ,so that says to me you may have never sent it ,as if yodel would give a tracking number as soon as they get it

  • GerardD61075920 Gerard Dunne (@GerardD61075920) reported

    @virginmedia Also , my neighbours have virgin media with no issues and the scripted reply of “I understand” is so frustrating

  • mickdahood Ian Larke (@mickdahood) reported

    @virginmedia Good morning. I'm sad to report that it started dropping out again this morning. The router has 3.0 HUB on the bottom there is a light bluish light on the front of the router. When it drops out. Hope this helps you diagnose my problem. Regards Ian
