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

  • lesley_win Lesley Wintle (@lesley_win) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia You need to keep your service status page updated. I checked that first, no issues apparently, then did the 10 min test, still not working so contacted you to be told there's a fault - very frustrating to be told to check the service status but it's incorrect!

  • SheridanAlcock Shez 🐾 Ⓥ (@SheridanAlcock) reported from Manchester, England

    Day 2... No services from Virgin Media! Still fixing the problem.. that's 2 days we are not paying for 😡😡

  • DidymusBrush Paul Holmes (@DidymusBrush) reported from Manchester, England

    Recently moved from a city centre apartment to suburbia. Had to lose my ever reliable @Hyperoptic connection for a @virginmedia package. Been working from home a few days in the last fortnight and it just likes to randomly cut out for periods without reason. JOY.

  • lesley_win Lesley Wintle (@lesley_win) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia @tricky1966 I have this problem too - see my tweet. Your service status doesn't mention this fault - I have been informed by your messaging service it will be fixed by 12th August!!!! 4 days!!!

  • djleumas Jon Samuel (@djleumas) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia That never happened. Just received an email stating that my online form had been received and it wa with the resolutions team. Apparently my complaint was never received as it doesn’t show on my account, yet I have email confirmation it was, although no contact from resolutions

  • MollyPipping Moll (@MollyPipping) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia still not working! Done another reboot, pinhole reset. Been waiting on the phone for another 30 minutes with no answer. Website still says no problems. Will 100% be leaving your services after this awful performance and lack of communication around a problem

  • MollyPipping Moll (@MollyPipping) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia my TV and WiFi hasn’t recovered from a power cut earlier today (SK8). Done all normal checks/ procedures. Been on hold 1.5hours. Everyone in area having same problem and being told there’s ‘nothing wrong’. Nothing logged on postcode error website. Awful service!!

  • rach_griff RACH / ♡ 🐝 (@rach_griff) reported from Middleton, England

    Day 4 of Netflix not working on @virginmedia !!!

  • lesley_win Lesley Wintle (@lesley_win) reported from Salford, England

    @tricky1966 @virginmedia 12th August is the estimated date for it to be fixed! Service status page duesnt show this at all! I have had to contact them today

  • allensmith566 Allen Smith (@allensmith566) reported from Bolton, England

    Properly raining. I hope my @virginmedia engineer can sail through and fix my TiVo box 🌧

  • MollyPipping Moll (@MollyPipping) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    @virginmedia Still not working after pinhole reset. No tv and green bar flashing on router. Spending silly amounts on data in an attempt to contact you when I already pay a lot of money each month. Next door just told it will be fixed Monday. unacceptable service!

  • rossmitton84 Ross Mitton (@rossmitton84) reported from Bolton, England

    @David4Charnock @virginmedia Ha ha!! You’re getting help off my issue!! On hold for over an hour and live chat keeps disconnecting as no advisors are available!!

  • Sex_chameleon Foxy stoat (@Sex_chameleon) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Because that's something you should have offered 4 months ago before the endless hour long phone calls, not something you should have offered only when I went though 3 different people to cancel. I also can't take a day off work for an engineer during August.

  • PelosiSte SP (@PelosiSte) reported from Stockport, England

    @SkyHelpTeam it’s a bit of rain, yet my tv has gone off. Amateurs, never happened with @virginmedia

  • Alison_hh Alison Hesketh-Holt (@Alison_hh) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Media. I've never experienced such awful customer service in all my life!! If this isn't resolved I will be going to the national press. It seems a lot of people are experiencing the same problem. Your company should be ashamed of themselves!

  • tjane44 Tracy.💗. &hubby.😍 x (@tjane44) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Rebooted, and been on services, says no problem but there is no Wi-Fi or phone..

  • Oh_Hello_Studio Sandy (@Oh_Hello_Studio) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia Yes, rebooted as per advice we receive every time 😒 We've experienced the same issue repeatedly since the "Intelligent Wi-Fi" upgrade. Repeated outages however status always reports that there is no issue.

  • allensmith566 Allen Smith (@allensmith566) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Engineer came and replaced my box. Excellent service and I am a happy customer 👍

  • Alison_hh Alison Hesketh-Holt (@Alison_hh) reported from Manchester, England

    @mascotmike @virginmedia I'm fuming with them. I have never experienced such awful customer services in all my life. We're going to cancel with them and go to the national press if they can't prove the "so called phone call". I think half their customers have similar problems.

  • shaunbentley Shaun (@shaunbentley) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Trip haziest outside my house cables running to next door which were supposed to be temporary, unstable service, rattling router, some of these issues have been resolved. Others haven’t. I’ve asked for final response but no one will talk to me about this.

  • a7powell andy (@a7powell) reported

    @virginmedia I’m with you.....520mbps to my router...only 110mbps coming via WiFi with a range of about 6m.....awful awful service 😢 I’ve spent 6 hours today in total trying to fix it, no compensation, no fix, only been hung up on three times...I didn’t even shout or swear...#snowflakes

  • frenchbaguete69 Antoine (@frenchbaguete69) reported

    @virginmedia why is the TiVo box down in WF17 ? Error code W02 % V53 ? Restarted the box and the router to no use . Website isn't showing anything as down as well

  • mowatb Barry Mowat (@mowatb) reported

    @Obvcop @HarisA1995 @virginmedia Yeah I was told an engineer was there, then they proceeded to hang up on my for no apparent reason. Once the dust settled I'll be cancellingni think. I've had enough of virgin especially at the cost they charge.

  • wotsithead1 Keith J Hudson (@wotsithead1) reported

    @virginmedia another weekend where I can’t watch what I want but still have to pay full price. Virgin is really poor. Total crap.

  • wotsithead1 Keith J Hudson (@wotsithead1) reported

    @virginmedia Crap.

  • jackandcordelia samantha (@jackandcordelia) reported

    @gomonline @virginmedia Oh my gosh it’s really shocking, it s not right what’s happened - mistakes happen but when they’ve been told and they do it any way and then even worse on top of that they were rude and insulting to your neighbour ! I’m really angry on your behalf ! I hope it gets sorted quickly

  • wotsithead1 Keith J Hudson (@wotsithead1) reported

    @virginmedia utter crap.

  • jpjasonpeter Jason Peter (@jpjasonpeter) reported

    What crap service from Virgin media, been on phone over an hour, still not spoken to a human being!!

  • RenegadeR0SS Ross 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@RenegadeR0SS) reported

    @virginmedia Yes. It's everything. Neighbours are experiencing constant drops and loss of service as well over the past couple of weeks. There seems to be an issue in the area that is only ever temporary fixed.

  • NJA92 Nathan Auty (@NJA92) reported

    @virginmedia the service is a joke. No BBC working at all. Restarted box 5 times checked every connection. 3rd time we’ve had problems this month. Starting to wish we’d stayed with pricy sky 🙈 I guess you pay more with them because it works..
