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

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan 💙 (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    Been on hold to Virgin Media for over 30 mins. Internet has been so intermittent for months and this week is the worst I've ever known it. Impossible for me to WFH with it like this. Missing deadlines and not able to speak to service users. Beyond frustrating.

  • outspokenoneuk Marc Lloyd (@outspokenoneuk) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia How about I just pay when you fix all the issues? I’m sure that if I don’t fulfil my terms of the contract regards to payment you will disconnect me but you are ok to not provide me with internet or TV services that I pay for

  • Weirdyweirdtwit Simon Ritchie (@Weirdyweirdtwit) reported from Manchester, England

    Oh @virginmedia yesterday I upgraded my broadband speed for the kids & I to WFH effectively (double what it was) & sure enuff it’s now not working at all 😡 & been on hold 20 mins plus to a special tech line you bundled in for me ... kids next lesson in 10 mins!

  • LiamRLaverick Liam Laverick (@LiamRLaverick) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia No you’re alright,, literally the worst internet provider I’ve ever come across, will be leaving and moving to Sky tomorrow

  • Poetech3 Poe{t}ech (@Poetech3) reported from Bollington, England

    @virginmedia No, because complaining won’t get the b/b installed and faster. Install supposed to be happening tomorrow after letting us down on 7 Dec and all the talking etc in between. Feel there’s a absolutely no point complaining. We just want b/b and don’t want to go to Sky.

  • Poetech3 Poe{t}ech (@Poetech3) reported from Bollington, England

    @virginmedia No, because complaining won’t get the b/b to happen any faster. Install supposed to be happening tomorrow after letting us down on 7 Dec and all the talking etc in between. Feel there’s absolutely no point complaining. We just want b/b and don’t want to go to Sky.

  • benj_greenhalgh BG (@benj_greenhalgh) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @virginmedia Please could you provide an update as to why there’s no internet in the Wilmslow area again? I rely greatly on broadband to carry out my job, it’s unacceptable for this to happen without warning, time and time again, with no idea of when the service will resume.

  • Poetech3 Poe{t}ech (@Poetech3) reported from Bollington, England

    @virginmedia Have been texting that no since 09:30 - this is after countless message threads, call centres, live chats and everyone says what you are saying and passes me on. No offence, and I appreciate you’re trying to help, but I can’t have another hours-long thread or multi-day live chat.

  • MrMcSmee Martin McGovern (@MrMcSmee) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Do you not understand it is absolutely nothing to do with speed? It's the constant outages! Pretty easy to work out how that is useless to me. Also, yet another outage with fix time tomorrow. Pls don't reply with another useless generic response as they are no help at all.

  • cpiyush Piyush Chechani (@cpiyush) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia is there anything wrong with your services in Altrincham area? It’s been 36 hours of intermittent issues with broadband (fiber). Service status says everything is fine but laptops and phones are dropping off connections..

  • Josh_Deegan Josh Deegan 💙 (@Josh_Deegan) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Guys, this is happening again today and is worse than its ever been. There HAS to be something wrong with either the router or the cable, as I've done everything in my power to fix it. This is making my job impossible to do and I'm suffering with falling behind because of it

  • pete_vella Pete Vella (@pete_vella) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia yet another broadband install cancelled at the last minute. Spent 10’s of hours trying to speak to somebody and today I was assured that the service would be connected. Despicable company. Blame COVID all you like, but you’re just completely useless. OFCOM claim!!

  • JardineClifford Clifford Jardine (@JardineClifford) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia my package price has gone up again and I'm now paying almost twice as much as a new customer how do I leave without having to call

  • outspokenoneuk Marc Lloyd (@outspokenoneuk) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia are honestly useless! Rang with the same issue I think 12 times each time they tell me there isn’t an issue, like I’ve got time to ring and tell them issues that aren’t there! I’m tempted to just cancel my direct debit and go to sky

  • teesh69 ✨$ERENA✨ (@teesh69) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Thank you, but there is no point. I’ve spoken to 6 people who have all either lied or said they can’t help. Would be grateful to know why your company records calls but then refuses to listen to them though? Thanks

  • unlovedlongsigh Phil Samphire (@unlovedlongsigh) reported from Manchester, England

    @RabnawazA @virginmedia Yes my partners zoom meetings crash even though we got a 300 Mb line the Wi-Fi signal is not that great and we got boosters what we tend to do is use mobile data for the rest of us but we are in the fortunate situation that we can

  • JardineClifford Clifford Jardine (@JardineClifford) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia You have a covid notice saying don't call unless its an emergency so I'm using chat.... 13hrs later still waiting.... customer care and satisfaction has never been a strong point with virgin media

  • Woodylass Gemmalea Woodward 🐝 (@Woodylass) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia I recently put in a request to cancel my contract. The email is from an operative offering a good deal, but its asking me to call him on on his mobile as he's working at home

  • outspokenoneuk Marc Lloyd (@outspokenoneuk) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve got 3 separate issues! Nobody cares, I can’t use live chat coz that Isn’t working either! I’ve not had a stable connection for 24 hours, when it’s normally working I have to sit next to the router because the range is like 20 cm so I can’t use internet in any other room

  • cpiyush Piyush Chechani (@cpiyush) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Thought it was tough to connect to someone on phone (57 mins wait) and another 36 mins convincing your helpdesk colleague that there is a problem - they sent someone within 12 hours to check and that talented technician found and fixed the issue in 20 mins.. all sorted !! 👍🏻👍🏻

  • Shimmy_morris Shimmy Morris (@Shimmy_morris) reported

    @richardbranson you should be ashamed of yourself. You’ve created a company @virginmedia and your staff are rude. They outright lie. I have recordings proof of this and they are the worst most unhelpful people on the planet. Sort your companies out, I don’t care how big they are.

  • Reneildo Neil MacDougall🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Reneildo) reported

    @virginmedia Hi been with you for 8 years I think and despite numerous calls and complaints regarding no access to our account online due to yourselves taking the wrong email address down. Our contract is up again and will be leaving unless this is sorted asap

  • mark770 Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia An area outage with something your end caused my issue (no bband) to flag as being resolved at your end. That was not the case in slightest (still without bband) and the tech appt this morning being cancelled but no notification

  • deadlifecorps DEADLIFE (@deadlifecorps) reported

    @virginmedia no internet til 10am tomorrow. Your network is in the dark ages.

  • mistervickster Vignesh (@mistervickster) reported

    @virginmedia I have sent a text message. Hopefully they can help me out with this.

  • Alex_Sandro10 Alex Sandro (@Alex_Sandro10) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I hired internet on December 19 and the device was never delivered to route the internet, please help me

  • JamesWgaming James Webster (@JamesWgaming) reported

    Hey @virginmedia I have been having connection issues with my broadband for 2 months. All I keepbeing told is to rest the hub and it will be fine. Now you want to charge me for a new hub or a technician to visit?? Anybody actually want to help me ??

  • Skiddy140 Mark Allenby (@Skiddy140) reported

    @virginmedia I have now on several occasions tried to speak with a technical person to describe our wire stopping out in one room only every day. I was advised to redo my package!!! I was going to be charged for boosters!!! No one seems to want to help. Quite frankly it’s appalling.

  • Skiddy140 Mark Allenby (@Skiddy140) reported

    I would strongly suggest that Virgin Media retrain their customer service team(s) I have never experienced such poor customer service from any other organisation. There is a defined language barrier which in my opinion is at the root of this problem

  • BusinessBad4 Bad4Business (@BusinessBad4) reported

    @virginmedia No. No forums and no support. 191 send me to the shop, and the shop send me to 191. You wonder why nobody has a good opinion. You appear to have nothing in place when things go wrong. If 'Jean-François van Boxmeer' had the same issue, would you still be this poor??
