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

• 
  Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported 41 seconds ago 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!

  @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.

  @virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.

  @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.

  Andy McGill (@andrewjmcgill) reported 28 minutes ago 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!!!!

  Andy McKeown (@AndyMcK1982) reported 28 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  @virginmedia @virginhelp We have just signed up for a broadband/phone package. We were recommended by a friend. They never gave us a code though as they are a pensioner. We were told to simply give her details in but the operative would not accept. Can we still get a code after?

  @virginmedia I never expected any engineer, because I'm aware it's an outage that affects a lot of people. But your CS responses could be a lot better.

• 
  Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported 32 minutes ago from Haydock, England

  @virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way

  John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported 34 minutes ago 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.

  Jamie McLoughlin (@jmcloughlin) reported 34 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  Anyone having @virginmedia issues in Liverpool area? Our TV has been showing static for the past half hour.

• 
  James (@jgrailpics) reported 37 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  When will I be able to go just one single day without @virginmedia failing, cannot wait until next year when the contract is over, increase the bills but reduce the service to next to nothing?

• 
  Mark Langshaw (@MarkLangshaw) reported 40 minutes ago from Liverpool, England

  @virginmedia Hello, my broadband was supposed to be installed on 6th Sept but your engineer only did half a job and ****** off. When I call up to find out when you're coming back to finish my installation, I can't get a straight answer and nobody calls me back! Shite service!

  @virginmedia Hi, will this continued investment mean finally getting signal in my area? It’s a central area and the signal is awful. Thanks

  @virginmedia yeah did that. it says all fine. no issues .... yet a quick scan of social media ( not using virgin broadband obviously, reveals there's an outage in my area .... perhaps you should move your status checker to another provider? It's going to 24 hours apparently. great service

  @virginmedia I’m completely disgusted. You hounded my 80-year-old mother with repeated calls until she cancelled her existing contract,only to then refuse to provide the new service. Why were no checks done upfront? You’ve now left her with no contract. Completely unacceptable.

  🏃‍♀️ 💯 Di Brander 💯 🏋️‍♀️ (@DiBrander) reported 15 minutes ago

  Disaster has struck the Brander household. The internet is down. Virgin Media said it could be up to 24 hours til they find/fix the fault. This is when you realise that the internet makes everything work, or not work.

  James Prosser (@buzzkilljames) reported 19 minutes ago

  @virginmedia I've requested to return equipment multiple times through chat bot but the promised return pack never arrives. Please can you help me receive one?

• 
  A.Brown (@_DundeePerfect_) reported 20 minutes ago

  @paulveness1974 @virginmedia I think that many peoples problems stem from using wifi, everything I have connected to the Internet, TVs and PC are hard wired, i never have a problem. I remember I used the Smart TV features once, never used it since, I press somethings it's instant not sat waiting to load.

• 
  Man in Black 2125 (@In2125) reported 20 minutes ago

  @virginmedia love to but unless you're gonna send a fleet of engineers to fix the issue i don't really see how dming will help. but just for the fun of it i will. standby. incoming

  @virginmedia Awful company. I'm leaving as soon as my contract is up.

  @y_alibhai @virginmedia What makes you special? Nothing especially after your comments on that poor baby and his caught and convicted killers! I’m guessing your award wasn’t for reading the room? You should never be seen on screen again
