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 Okay, but with respect, the problem is your call centre say different stuff every time, which inevitably bears no resemblance to reality. Later, VM deny those conversations ever took place and there is no written evidence to back up what was agreed. That's what I am after here?
-
Stuart Wilks-Heeg (@StuartWilksHeeg) reported from Seaforth, England@tonymc39 @virginmedia Really, truly shockingly terrible.
-
Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England@virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently
-
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
-
Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England@virginmedia Just wifi, the phones tablets tv all just going off randomly. I have now booked a technician but I have been doing the troubleshooting for 2 days and its saying the issue is being fixed. Its only today they have said to send a technician
-
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.
-
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!
-
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.)

James (@jgrailpics) reported from Liverpool, EnglandCompletely pathetic useless company @virginmedia Every single day there's some sort of problem EVERY SINGLE DAY Can't wait til this contracts over, after that in a bit useless crap
-
John Kelly (@John_Kelly17) reported 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.
-
DRood 🏳️🌈🎗 (@DoctorRood) reported from Chester, England@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.
-
Kevin Saunderson* (@kevsauno) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia hello, issues with TV and WiFi in Liverpool L12 area this morning. No issues showing on the app. Tried all the usual stuff but still no connection.
-
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
-
Gareth Hughes GBC TV (@GarethWHughes) reported from Roby, EnglandHas virgin media gone down? #virginmedia @virginmedia
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia I have a booster. It was sent to me last Spring because of previous problems with TV in this room.
-
Nicola Bates (@Nicolajb87) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia can you help my mum and dad they have had no telephone line since yesterday. The internet also went off but that seems to be back on now. It’s vital we get the phone on asap
-
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)
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia I'm not sure this is the 3rd box. It's the one with the router in same room. Re advice remotely got message saying problem could not be solved.
