Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Wigan, England

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

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  • tuite_liz 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

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting

  • SmithysMaud 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.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia 2/2 who can I speak to as it was working fine on Friday until the issues that were nothing to do with me happened, so don’t see why I should now pay for a technician

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia is honestly the worst company for WiFi

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.

  • Billzy79 Billzy (@Billzy79) reported from Liverpool, England

    @Jacedafaceis @virginmedia Yes. Been out to lake district, and 4G mobile phone signal was quick and more reliable than the broadband. And people thought it was normal.

  • agarnett Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • 92Tevs Thomas Evans (@92Tevs) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia do you want the prize for the shittiest broadband ever or would you like to fix my internet service?

  • NatashaVic Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

  • pstock62 Paul Stockton (@pstock62) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in BL6 5RN, any idea's

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

  • tuite_liz 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.

  • skinga S C King (@skinga) reported

    @virginmedia They called me once before this message. And no I won’t be calling them today on my weekend and wait 30+ mins to not have this resolved again. You have the details of my complaint. Fix it.

  • HarryBrent Harry Brent (@HarryBrent) reported

    @virginmedia I’m don’t expect you to be a faultless service. I expect you to try & right wrongs wherever you can & however you can to your paying customers. *Your* problem is costing me time, money & potentially my job, and you won’t do anything to help. Shambolic service, I’m afraid.

  • jamesesh James Eshelby (@jamesesh) reported

    Looking to upgrade to Virgin 360 as well as getting the WiFi boosters that the app tell me I need and can’t do either. Initial set up of virgin was great customer service after has been shocking even before the pandemic. @virginmedia sort it out

  • CeriAnnMW Ceri-Ann Morgan (@CeriAnnMW) reported

    @virginmedia What a joke! Worst customer service EVER! And I still don’t have a TV service despite paying over £60 a month for it!! I could scream!! So frustrating!!!

  • Varcs73 Paul Varcoe (@Varcs73) reported

    @virginmedia It is a total loss of service since Wednesday morning, not intermittent. For 5 days. How are we supposed to work from home? When will this be back on? I am never getting any answers or help from virgin with this

  • Azherd_ SVY Azherd (@Azherd_) reported

    @KhorriFN @virginmedia So bad 20 percent constant and lagging

  • Azherd_ SVY Azherd (@Azherd_) reported

    Thiss **** packet loss is letting me down so badly **** wifi @virginmedia

  • HarryBrent Harry Brent (@HarryBrent) reported

    @virginmedia You have given me zero reason to stick with Virgin, I’ll be cancelling my subscription immediately. A truly awful response.

  • BaZerKaa 𝕁𝕠𝕤𝕙 (@BaZerKaa) reported

    Virgin Media are honestly one of the worst providers in the UK, good speeds but I’d rather have BT and get consistent internet than speed that cuts out because of complex issues in the area. ******* hell.

  • Andrewroysmith Andrew Smith (@Andrewroysmith) reported

    @virginmedia No, that's nonsense. It was fixed and now it's down again. This has been happening for months like I said previously. Stop making excuses.
