Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Runcorn, England

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

  • TimmyJ1972 Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia I’d love to hear from how I’m supposed to report an issue with my broadband. You can’t do it via live chat and seemingly not via the phone either as you’re “experiencing difficulties”

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I have a booster. It was sent to me last Spring because of previous problems with TV in this room.

  • lurkinhead Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @les_murray71 @virginmedia Still saying 12.05 on the app Lesley .... have they put that new estimated fix time out elsewhere? 😱

  • NdawanaY Ndawana Youngson (@NdawanaY) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Too many service drops. Engineer has been to properly to fix but this persists.

  • cambo691 Cambo (@cambo691) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @les_murray71 @virginmedia This and their woeful customer service is why we binned them off mate

  • cbray72 Christopher Bray (@cbray72) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I think so yes there's definitely a issue of some description as it keeps happening all the time

  • laineypb2109 Elaine Brown (@laineypb2109) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia 15% increase, don't think so mate. I'll be in touch via phone shortly with a cancellation notice. So much for long serving customer loyalty

  • lurkinhead Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia Okay, but with respect, the problem is your call centre say different stuff every time, which inevitably bears no resemblance to reality. Later, VM deny those conversations ever took place and there is no written evidence to back up what was agreed. That's what I am after here?

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia thanks for the awful internet service, f*cking useless you are

  • alandean1878 Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)

  • laineypb2109 Elaine Brown (@laineypb2109) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia sort your **** out. No service at all since half 8 last night. Wirral CH41 area

  • NdawanaY Ndawana Youngson (@NdawanaY) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia They worked on it, or so I thought. I was told they fixed some external connections issue (outside the house)

  • lurkinhead Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia There's no point raising a complaint is there, as you won't comprnsate? Other reputable oroviders offer a back-up 4 or 5g device to kick in if their main broadband goes down, to keep the service running. Not VM though - it's just all really poor customer service innit?

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia In this room have always had problems but just not like today. The router is just over 2 metres from box.

  • ZachcloseYT zach close YT 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 (@ZachcloseYT) reported from St Helens, England

    Before covid came you was brilliant @virginmedia but ever since then you have been really **** and if it not sorted by next Sunday we are leaving you it literally 2023 and you still got **** service

  • supergran22 Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England

    @virginmedia I'm not sure this is the 3rd box. It's the one with the router in same room. Re advice remotely got message saying problem could not be solved.

  • lurkinhead Martin Travis (@lurkinhead) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @BlaggerBly @virginmedia Seems to be Wirral wide at least, and I think Liverpool is affected too. VM should be massively compensating their affected customers for this, but they hide behind their terms and conditions where they only deem it reasonable to compensate if the outage last more than 3 days!

  • TimmyJ1972 Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia To be honest, the issue is an intermittent fault. My wife works from home and the broadband just drops out numerous times a day. Then comes back on. It’s only worthwhile doing a remote test if it’s when it drops out. Otherwise all will look fine

  • paulhooker4 paulhooker (@paulhooker4) reported

    @virginmedia No this keeps happening a lot been off since around 11am then just came back on and now off again this is happening too much especially as how much you are charging now virgin media service seems to be getting poor

  • AnnShortyGriff Ann Shorty (@AnnShortyGriff) reported

    @virginmedia My complaint was put in last week

  • dinozzo7600 immy7600 (@dinozzo7600) reported

    @virginmedia can I get some urgent support. Wifi keeps cutting out. Have been on the helpline so many times and they can’t fix it

  • stevedmurph Steve (@stevedmurph) reported

    @virginmedia A forum, are you serious. Omg this is the worst decision I have ever made. Roll on end of contract. The service is abysmal

  • alexds36 Alex Dawson-Smith (@alexds36) reported

    @virginmedia A full month without internet and I have just been told, for some unknown reason I do not qualify for the automated compensation scheme!! The customer service and assistance from Virgin throughout this period has been the worst i've recieved from any company i've dealt with!!

  • Astonn1995 Aston (@Astonn1995) reported

    @virginmedia I am downloading another browser to see if thats the problem

  • MBrentnall Mark Brentnall (@MBrentnall) reported

    @virginmedia I finally got a reply and then the agent went on a break! So not resolved 3 hours after starting. Now trying the cancel my services as so disappointed by the service. Used same service with Sky today and my (complicated) request resolved in 25 minutes.

  • KBEX999 K999🩺📸👁🎥👨🏼‍🍳🛒 (@KBEX999) reported

    @virginmedia #virginmedia I have been using virginmedia through the ages from 'Mercury' through Telewest, blueyonder etc. 30+ years. I note it to be consistent when a complaint is raised it 1) Takes ages to respond and 2) The response NEVER covers the actual complaint raised.

  • karan_1006 Karan Chandan(KC) (@karan_1006) reported

    @virginmedia Then why bother replying as you can't help! It may look good on @Twitter but it feels horrible I can assure you of that. I am on the call right now, just jumping from one team to another - moving home - Sales - installation. This is a rocket science which I am not understanding!

  • dleeayr Derek Lee (@dleeayr) reported

    @virginmedia Sent my details 2 days ago still haven’t heard a thing. Terrible experience since moving home and making the mistake of taking virgin as provider, cut off 2 weeks early, billed £168 incorrectly. Now that I have moved, only half a job complete. Awful customer services.
