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

  • Lara__1302 LaraB (@Lara__1302) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia It’s for mine and my daughters mobile. Been going on now for 2 days. Can’t make or receive calls. Been into Virgin store today and they gave me a new sim. But couldn’t help with checking to see if there were issues in my area.

  • mikelynch7 mike lynch (@mikelynch7) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia It was my partner who tried calling. She eventually got through but received no help at all. We’ve emailed Tom Mockeridge tonight so hopefully this will go through the executive complaints process

  • juiceterry87 Greg R (@juiceterry87) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia @wendyjhunter It should be free anyway, if you're promising a service you're responsible for fixing any fault with it

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia I have tried EVERYTHING to speak to a human however the automated rubbish doesn’t let me get there. It just tells me there is a problem that you are trying to fix. Clearly I am aware there is a problem and has been for sometime I have done all usual diagnostics my end

  • jameze1992 James Marshall (@jameze1992) reported from Oldham, England

    Good grief.. First experience with @virginmedia was like pulling teeth. They'll need to sort their customer service out FAST before other providers catch up with speed 😂😂

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    Pretty ironic when the @virginmedia Service Status page doesn’t work.

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

    @virginmedia Take this morning for example. You could have checked on previous interactions. But because you couldn’t be bothered, I’ve had to explain again. So. Take that as another example of how poor both your customer service team are and you, individually..

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia OK I am getting mad 🤬🤬🤬 This has been my problem I CANNOT GET THROUGH TO A HUMAN BEING. Everything is automated. When I try to call it goes round the houses and then the call drops. #lostacustomer #igiveup

  • sazzlepants76 Sarah Owens (@sazzlepants76) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia 5 sets of staff been to my property now (my broadband install date is today). 30 mins waiting on the phone and still no resolution. Now my pavements being dug up! I’ve lost faith already 🙈

  • mikelynch7 mike lynch (@mikelynch7) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia presenting barriers to cancelling after contract has expired! Appropriate notice provided. On hold for 40 minutes to get through told to call back! Barriers to cancelling, especially where a customer could be financially vulnerable is wrong! Great business practices

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

    @virginmedia Still on the phone. Just found out the eng that was supposed to come today to fixed the frayed cables outside was a no show. Also all my smart lights have stopped working meaning the local network (not broadband) has gone down. Finally you’ve agreed to issue a deadlock letter.

  • wlasinclair Wendy Sinclair RN (@wlasinclair) reported from Hindley, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve tried a few times but I keep getting cut off when they don’t know how to deal with the query. I’ll keep trying and maybe someone will be able help!! Thank you 🙏

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @blackheartorch @virginmedia 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 is all I have to say right now. Just want to talk to a human and not deal with an automated service x

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    Dear @virginmedia I don’t want an automated response, I want a solution. I have had intermittent internet access for 4 WEEKS and have had ENOUGH. I want to speak to a human being, can I have a number to complain to please #crapservice

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia So it looks like the router resetting was the start of a bigger issue. Router appears to be having issues again. Your diag service thinks the router is switched off but it certainly isn’t.

  • lorraineayrton Lorraine Ayrton (@lorraineayrton) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Estimated fix time, it’s been going on for 4+ weeks and yes that is the number I am calling. It reset everything and did tests and currently running HOWEVER the next drop will be 5pmish as per the norm. It last went off at 14:53. I need a human being & cant speak to one

  • Lara__1302 LaraB (@Lara__1302) reported from Abram, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t but now that I have a link I will try that. Fingers crossed they will be able to resolve the issue

  • LeanintoDesign John Grimshaw (@LeanintoDesign) reported from Oldham, England

    @fittdr @virginmedia I'm hearing good things about @Plusnet on the customer service side, but it's the TiVo I'd miss, we are seriously considering @NOWTV broadband and TV as we already use them for sky movies but need to investigate if we (the wife) can watch @emmerdale and @LoveIsland 🤣🤣

  • DagsJT Darren Thomas (@DagsJT) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia So service resumed around 3pm with an email confirming it. In the last 5/10 mins the wireless connection keeps disappearing off. It’ll return for a second or two, then drop again. Unsurprisingly your status checker says there isn’t an issue despite there clearly being one.

  • BrightLitegames BrightLightGames (@BrightLitegames) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Incident report, sorted now, 3 hours later. A mornings work lost.

  • Nicolanoodle Nicola Fish 💙 (@Nicolanoodle) reported

    @virginmedia Just rang this number and there are no issues in my area. So just us......

  • 12thmanstjohns 12th man footy (@12thmanstjohns) reported

    @virginmedia U replied last time I tweeted then eventually said u can’t help at your end as you don’t have access to people’s accounts .you gave me a phone number to ring which was obsolete .

  • JonSEO Jonathan Cook (@JonSEO) reported

    @mrspenceresq @virginmedia When Virgin Broadband is working it’s very good but from my experience with them if you get a fault it’s a complete nightmare trying to get them to fix it. For that reason I wouldn’t go back to them. Had been a customer for over 10 years!

  • StaceyJane_xx Stacey Craft (@StaceyJane_xx) reported

    @virginmedia No one can help then, maybe this is something I should take to the media instead.

  • DurzoBlades Dave (@DurzoBlades) reported

    @virginmedia Well. After each visit, the net would work without issue for that day then the next day it would be back to being an issue, I had to reset my router 6 times yesterday, day before that I pin reset it 2 times and normal reset it 4 times and it hasn't worked at all.

  • JamesMarriott James Marriott (@JamesMarriott) reported

    @virginmedia I’m waiting on a new cable arriving to see if that resolved the problem. So, no, not yet

  • ChrisShearwood Chris Shearwood (@ChrisShearwood) reported

    @virginmedia No not yet. Just needing to cancel as have moved to a new property without virgin media access and I’m out of contract now.

  • DigitalDoodler Chelsey (@DigitalDoodler) reported

    @virginmedia Yes :( We have lost our 5g signal and 2g is slower than ever and drops out intermittently. I waited 1h20 on my final call last night (out of 7 attempts) to be cut off because you'd shut!

  • andyroocraig Andy Roo Craig (@andyroocraig) reported

    @havefuncreating @virginmedia I think I need better boosters. The problem is largely from my front room downstairs to my home office upstairs. If anyone can suggest boosters that work better than the ones @virginmedia provide, that would be helpful and I'd happily spend the money! ;-)

  • Greig_M Greig MacBride (@Greig_M) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, I have no service would be to put it boldly - 2 accounts migrating into 1 account but both accounts disconnected and left with no Internet, cannot speak to anyone to understand how Internet will be restored at property - we were assured when completing no loss of service
