Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Widnes, England
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Widnes and nearby locations:
-
Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England@virginmedia There's no point raising a complaint is there, as you won't comprnsate? Other reputable oroviders offer a back-up 4 or 5g device to kick in if their main broadband goes down, to keep the service running. Not VM though - it's just all really poor customer service innit?
-
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?
-
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!
-
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?
-
Cambo (@cambo691) reported from Birkenhead, England@les_murray71 @virginmedia This and their woeful customer service is why we binned them off mate
-
Chris Wright (@ChrisWAzure) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia The guy was the most arrogant person I've ever spoke to in CS, retentions is meant to be the end of the line, if it was my service and not my wife's 93 year old nan i'd have cancelled the contract. I asked to speak to a manager and was told "managers don't speak to customers"....

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!
-
Amanda Ralph (@aralph50) reported from Liverpool, EnglandPlease sort this out. You charge enough, surely we are entitled to a service that actually works??@virginmedia #virginmedia

phil61efc (@MirLADas) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia what’s going on virgin no tv since Friday morning told 5th now 6th no messages nothing paying for nothing compensation rates garbage nothing should take this long with a company like virgin L4 area
-
Mick Mc 23 (@Mick_McIver1984) reported from Kirkby, EnglandAnyone else useless @virginmedia gone down got no internet house is in melt down
-
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.
-
Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)
-
Mark Langshaw (@MarkLangshaw) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Was Thursday or Friday but you never call me back when you say you will, so I'm not confident it will be completed unless I keep chasing it up.
-
Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England@virginmedia Visit was fine replaced wifi. I was never out of Internet completely like it says only your compensation page, but it was equally as bad since my step daughter had online training to do which couldn't be done at all. My children also were not able to do homework.
-
Bootle Bucks (@BootleFCBucks) reported from Liverpool, England@JamesSymes8 Virgin Media. It keeps going really bad.
-
Elaine Brown (@laineypb2109) reported from Birkenhead, England@virginmedia 15% increase, don't think so mate. I'll be in touch via phone shortly with a cancellation notice. So much for long serving customer loyalty

-
Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England@virginmedia To be honest, the issue is an intermittent fault. My wife works from home and the broadband just drops out numerous times a day. Then comes back on. It’s only worthwhile doing a remote test if it’s when it drops out. Otherwise all will look fine
-
Jemima (@JemimaCamhs) reported from Garston, England@virginmedia Hi, will this continued investment mean finally getting signal in my area? It’s a central area and the signal is awful. Thanks
-
Christopher Bray (@cbray72) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia I think so yes there's definitely a issue of some description as it keeps happening all the time

Escape to the Garden (@JanetsEscapades) reported@virginmedia I have recently closed by Broadband account. I returned your equipment on 25th August 2026. I have an in-post receipt. However, your email is no reply & there is no contact phone number for customer service? I am now getting further emails about returning this!
-
Helen Bailey (@helenbaileyuk) reported@virginmedia neither myself nor my husband have received any emails today (we have ntlworld email addresses) and even ones we've sent to ourselves from other accounts haven't come through. Is there an issue with emails?
-
Irate_Jobbie (@Irate_Jobbie) reported@AwTroon Many, many years ago, I called virgin media to tell them I was leaving. They asked why, I said you don't offer value for money anymore. Sorry you're leaving but that is the best price, you already have. It was expensive. No problem, bye now. Next day, virgin cold calls me. Asks me to confirm who I am. I said no, you are calling me, you should know. Guy was annoyed as he was phoning to offer me a better deal. I said fine, I'll call the same retentions team I called yesterday to leave and I'll know it's actually virgin. He got angry, said they can't offer discounts, only he could and if I didn't confirm my details, he couldn't give me the offer. I just told him I could no longer do business with virgin due to such poor security procedures. He seemed very angry about the fact I wasn't willing to give personal identifiable information to a stranger cold calling me. Never paid them a penny again.

BB (@TheWazzo) reported@virginmedia @FredWhitbread You didn’t need to send your standard reply, everything you needed to know was in Fred’s post, he’s trying to help you.

Expanse Consulting Ltd (@ExpanseCon) reported@MartinXTweets @VodafoneIreland Not a vodafone issue. Looks like a core switch failure, optical cross-connect fault or other fault inside one of the central carrier-neutral hubs. It has dropped interconnection across multiple fixed ISPs (Virgin Media, Eir, Siro, NBI) simultaneously.

Crystal Q (@MizzCQ) reported@virginmedia LION S1, E4 appears to be @NatGeo LION S1, E1. Can you please fix this.

Jenny Do Nascimento (@jdonascimento) reported@virginmedia I moved house on August 28th and Virgin has been unable to connect my internet service. It's terrible service; I've wasted hours talking to them with no results. #Sutton #England #SOS
