Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Widnes and nearby locations:
-
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.
-
Ducky 🇺🇦 🎃 👻 (@duckyblog) reported from Tyldesley, England@virginmedia Issues with all VM services in my area says expected fix by 4:40pm today.
-
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.
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.
-
Carpo (@Carpo_vp) reported from Chester, EnglandAh another day of piss poor service from @virginmedia 0 Internet connection since 6am.... Thanks Branson 😒
-
Andy McGill (@andrewjmcgill) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia I have been without broadband all day, a day after you sent me a letter about price increases, an increase for what, even poorer service!!!!
-
Gareth Hughes GBC TV (@GarethWHughes) reported from Roby, EnglandHas virgin media gone down? #virginmedia @virginmedia
-
Ndawana Youngson (@NdawanaY) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia They worked on it, or so I thought. I was told they fixed some external connections issue (outside the house)
-
Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England@DoctorLemma Well done . Always had great service from @virginmedia just cant afford them anymore.
-
Stuart Wilks-Heeg (@StuartWilksHeeg) reported from Seaforth, England@tonymc39 @virginmedia Really, truly shockingly terrible.
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia In this room have always had problems but just not like today. The router is just over 2 metres from box.
-
Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Yes I’ve been told this before… yet it never happened when my bill was generated. Let’s see eh..
-
Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England@BlaggerBly @virginmedia Seems to be Wirral wide at least, and I think Liverpool is affected too. VM should be massively compensating their affected customers for this, but they hide behind their terms and conditions where they only deem it reasonable to compensate if the outage last more than 3 days!
-
Tony (@AckerHeron) reported from Liverpool, EnglandHi @virginmedia, my dear old mum has been on the phone for 20 minutes because her broadband has gone down. Your advisors keep saying to reset the hub and disconnecting before it's sorted. Any ideas? Still using the crap one you sent years ago despite her recontracting
-
Cambo (@cambo691) reported from Birkenhead, England@les_murray71 @virginmedia This and their woeful customer service is why we binned them off mate
-
Andrew (@andym1908) reported from Warrington, England@skytv @skytv . I am disappointed with your customer service and technical team . They have disconnected my sky viewing card . Why ?. I want rectifyying ASAP . Or shall I just cancel my subscription and go over to virgin media
-
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.
-
Ian Hawksey (@ShanklyBob77) reported from Aintree Village, EnglandAbsolute nightmare trying to watch @SkySportsF1 on my phone because of how poor @virginmedia are especially since merging with @o2, used to just put email and password in, now going around in circles with same message asking me to verify email link and switch, very poor practice.
-
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.
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

Sam (@sjr23) reported@virginmedia Useless. Moved house and sent self install kit. No socket. Fine. Help me then. Nope I’ve sat on hold three times for an hour so and then cut off and their chat bots also just keep cutting me off. I’m paying to be ignored for help a service that doesn’t work!
-
Chris Hobbs (@obbsie) reported@punjabihammer @virginmedia @SkyUK Thanks. Virgin customer service seems in meltdown at present.
-
Sam Reynolds (@samr_1986) reported@virginmedia I joined in Dec 2025 at £23.99 a month and my broadband price has already increased in April 2026 after only a few months. I’m really disappointed with how quickly the advertised price changed. Can someone review my account and help with a better deal please?
-
NoBotsForSupport (@NoBotForSupport) reported@mumherts @virginmedia Bot support is a very real frustrating issue today. I am a dedicated account to protest the incompetent support system. I hope we get the real human support back where it is needed. #NoBotsForSupport Tag/Mention me for repost.

-
Chip Lewis (@crispinlewis) reported@virginmedia @ChiBkSequels Hey Virgin media, I need to cancel/renegotiate my contract. 30days notice is due at latest next Friday. Do I have e to send you a letter of cancellation or can I actually speak to a human to discuss reduced services/broadband only option, before it’s too late?
-
nicky kaleniuk (@nickytrickster) reported@virginmedia urgently trying to get through to customer services as my emails have gone down and was on hold with the most annoying music, and then was cut off dead at exactly 2 hours.
-
Coops (@dancooper05) reported@virginmedia I need to raise an urgent complaint regarding a door to door seller. I’ve been on hold for an hour & DM not answered. Can I get an email address or contact number please?
-
Paul Caley (@PC_ale) reported@virginmedia the people on web chat not working today? Been getting the still in a queue message for almost the last hour and a half. Is it to raise a complaint? So who do talk to raise a complaint about raising a complaint, as the method to raise a complaint is not working!
