Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Westhoughton, England

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

  • _AdamGardiner 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.

  • duckyblog Ducky 🇺🇦 🎃 👻 (@duckyblog) reported from Tyldesley, England

    @virginmedia Issues with all VM services in my area says expected fix by 4:40pm today.

  • _AdamGardiner Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

  • DannyLannon dannyWAFClannon (@DannyLannon) reported from Wigan, England

    @Louisewafc @virginmedia Nice of Stoke fans turn up to support us

  • _AdamGardiner Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I have phoned you at least 10 times this week. I’ve had a visit from a technician. My Wi-Fi still doesn’t work. I rang up AGAIN in the last half an hour, after waiting for 30 mins to speak to someone, they said they had ‘system issues’ and hung up on me. (1/3)

  • tuite_liz 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.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

  • _AdamGardiner Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Have you just stopped responding now? Having some system issues?

  • SandyLindsay Sandy Lindsay MBE 🐝 (@SandyLindsay) reported from Sale, England

    Have @virginmedia gone down in South Manchester??? Been kicked off the wifi!

  • tuite_liz 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

  • _AdamGardiner Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I was also promised a call back from a manager within 24 hours on a phone call on Friday afternoon. I did not receive this phone call. This is absolutely disgusting and I expect something to be done. I rely on your service for my income as I work from home. (2/3)

  • nick_lowden 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?

  • _AdamGardiner 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.

  • JohnnyDude1983 🦔🦊Johnny1983 🦝🐱 (Big Animal Lover🐕🐶🐁) (@JohnnyDude1983) reported from Bury, England

    @bazza141 @virginhelp @virginmedia Join the club. I spent over 1hr 30 mins trying to get a issue resolved . I kept getting through to their over-seas call centres . It took almost 20 call re-tries to get through to a young lady over in Newcastle 😳😞. It's rediculous that they got call centres in 17 countries.

  • bludav_andrew 👽 (@bludav_andrew) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi, for the 2nd time it appears you’re trying to charge me for a call out when I wasn’t supposed to be charged, I’ve already called once about this and was told it was corrected but it’s happened again? I’ve had to cancel my DD until sorted as due to come out 2morrow

  • DaveGarside Dave Garside🇺🇦🇬🇧❤️ (@DaveGarside) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No. Tv is fine. I can access VOD such as Amazon Prime & Youtube no problem

  • _AdamGardiner Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia You’re not understanding. I do contact when the issue is happening, your advisor then fixes it, but it then happens again within 24 hours. I need a ‘once and for all’ fix. Not this whack a mole approach you’ve had so far.

  • _AdamGardiner Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia I also don’t need to monitor the quality of my broadband, I already know it’s awful. I don’t understand how that would help.

  • agarnett Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • gogs42 GEORGE (@gogs42) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t know what that is but have sent a complaint to the CEO because your comms team need to keep us customers informed of what is going on and updates should be done at night midnight- 6am when there is less usage.

  • RaeOfTheBooks Rae (@RaeOfTheBooks) reported

    Feels like I've spent the last 2 days trying to get @virginmedia to actually sort our issues. Tonight they are mainly enjoying keeping me on hold for 15 mins at a time then cutting off the call...

  • Qoo_Kumba Chris Welch (@Qoo_Kumba) reported

    @virginmedia So I thought if watch the game tonight and yet again the box is stuck in a loop. I've switched it off & on again but the pos still won't work. I'm done with this..I pay just shy of £300 pcm and get ****. Get someone to fix this ****

  • p_neale1 Paul Andrew Neale (@p_neale1) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin-you’ve done it again-since your failure to instal on 4/5 I have been in daily contact-I’m told that the work will be done on that day and I will be contacted-IT NEVER HAPPENS-I have no internet now &just received a text to say you’re putting me back to 31/5-unacceptable 🤬

  • p_neale1 Paul Andrew Neale (@p_neale1) reported

    @virginmedia This is the worst failure of service I’ve experienced from any company ever-Iwould never have considered t/f’ing to you if I’d had any idea that I would be misinformed EVERY DAY & be left with no service-I do a lot of work from home and rely on the internet-PLEASE HELP SORT THIS

  • Hammer1966 Paul (@Hammer1966) reported

    @virginmedia can someone help

  • ZoeEaster73 Zoe Easter (@ZoeEaster73) reported

    @virginmedia Why can't I get through to anyone to cancel my contract. You soon answer the call if I want to upgrade or add a package 🤬

  • BurnStephan Stephan Burn (@BurnStephan) reported

    @RaeOfTheBooks @virginmedia This is the main reason I cancelled my service with them. That and their flaky service.

  • jelly_eel Jellied eel (@jelly_eel) reported

    @virginmedia 41 days without any Virgin Media services and no-one from senior management is taking any responsibility for resolution. Virgin Media is broken

  • drwormau Andrew F (@drwormau) reported

    @virginmedia So how do I block spam calls on your network?
