Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Whitefield, England
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Whitefield and nearby locations:
-
Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?
-
Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England@virginmedia And our Internet is down again this morning! So because its intermittent we don't get compensation, tried to call, can't get through (have to do it on mobile, our 'landline' is now internet reliant!)
-
CLAIRE GROVER 🐝 (@ClaireabelleRed) reported from Bury, England@virginmedia Thanks for updating I've had my 82 year old dad on the phone as he only has the main tv channels so I guess its the same issue as the pixalation issues. I'll let him know
-
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.

Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia I spoke to your customer service team on 2nd January who advised all issues had been resolved and my sim card was being sent out by royal mail delivery. Even with any postal delays out of your control it seems odd that it hasn't arrived.
-
Nick Lowden (@nick_lowden) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia can’t get on service checker as app says it is out of service. Internet has gone down in M20 ?? When should it be fixed?
-
Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported from Dukinfield, England@virginmedia any idea when the outage will be sorted? I have work to do today
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.
-
Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace
-
David (@Aldehulme) reported from Oldham, England@virginmedia I need to speak to somebody regarding a broadband problem without you running a check that will cut me off the internet. How do I get past this to speak to a person?
-
Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Don't give me your copy and pasted waffle. You have done nothing to help. You have been an absolute thorn in my side! "I'm so sorry you feel this way" is such an outdated and terrible response from a marketing point of view btw.
-
Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, EnglandHi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?
-
kevin.james (@pillbo01) reported from Bolton, EnglandI have virgin media but they don’t have a Customer service that you can speak to. Or email I’ve had a problem for over a month since an engineer messed about in the box in the street. Picture on tv keeps pixilated.

Ducky 🇺🇦 🎃 👻 (@duckyblog) reported from Tyldesley, England@virginmedia Issues with all VM services in my area says expected fix by 4:40pm today.
-
🐝Louise🐝 (@louaze) reported from Manchester, EnglandSkysports app with virginmedia login hasn't been working today so having to old school "watch" via live updates here. HORRIBLE way to sit thru that 8mins!!
-
Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported from Stockport, England@virginmedia No they’re helping. But it’s VERYYYY slow. But almost there.
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia Will they help if the Wi-Fi is working at the time I call? Because my issue is that when it is working, your advisors consider their work done despite telling them that it usually doesn’t last. And invariable, it doesn’t.

Paul Stockton (@pstock62) reported from Horwich, England@virginmedia Internet down in BL6 5RN, any idea's

Cranberry Pointy Toes Kazi54 🌸🧚🏻🙂 (@KarenJukes2) reported@Benleo @SenseiBear44 @virginmedia They are awful !! I ditched them years ago for the most awful customer service !
-
Clareactually (@ActuallyClarex) reportedFk sake #virginmedia not working yet again. That’s made my mind up. Cancel it is.
-
Leon Spight (@leonspight) reported@Benleo Slim consolation however I’ve been a VirginMedia customer for 20+ years and other than a blip back in 2019 due to no fault of VM the service has been fantastic. But this isn’t good enough, come on @virginmedia do better
-
UAVHive (@UAVHive) reported@Benleo I have worked in telecoms customer service so can vouch for Virgin Media being (in my view) the worst in the industry. They billed me twice for a single month & made me pay for equipment I'd already returned. I was overjoyed to cancel.
-
Carl S (@screwy73) reported@virginmedia I no its not a fault free service but your faults are very regular as i said 3 to 4 times a week compared to once in a blue moon on a BT line , and when i do a check nothing wrong with my line , so it must be my router which works fine till you have a fault 🙄
-
D (@idczn) reportedThe only contract I ever signed with Virgin Media was in 2018, and it continues to this day. I have never changed or upgraded it; I only occasionally tried to report home network connection issues. It turns out that in November 2024, a two-year contract was accepted, which I only found out about in 2025 when I wanted to cancel their services. I couldn't leave them XD However, checking who did this on my behalf and when (because it certainly wasn't me) was impossible, as I had no way to log into my Virgin account Now I cansee- the accepted contract has different number? There is no any signature of mine- and information that was sent to e-mail: back then controlled by hacker
-
John Parsons (@snipsy1) reported@RobRollin2 @virginmedia Yes 2026 and only guarantee speeds for a wired connection. Signal strength has got lower with new routers generating extra revenue whilst customers suffer and pay
-
Shaun (@shauny67) reported@virginmedia @RobRollin2 If you have the 1gb they are free plus most WiFi issues are due to devices & not the service. Plus you can if want put in modem mode & use your own equipment
-
Rough Shuffle 🔀 (@Rough_Shuffle) reported@Benleo @virginmedia I recently had to contact them. Their CS is the worst ever experienced. It's like it's ran entirely by 12 year olds on work experience. I'm horrified at how bad it is. Initially contacted because of a litany of f'ups on their part. CS seems completely dethatched from the company.

Rob York (@BurlingtonBert0) reported@hamsterpranks @virginmedia Virgin - sucking the life out of humanity since inception. Thank **** I got rid years ago.
