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

  • torisprung Tori Sprung (@torisprung) reported from Liverpool, England

    @SkyHelpTeam We haven’t been booked in. Following some quick and informative enquiries, @virginmedia can install a new service in 3days; yet, a @SkyUK engineer can’t come out to us for over a week? When we pay a monthly small fortune, this all feels like terrible customer service

  • HellsbellsO Helen Walsh-ONeill (@HellsbellsO) reported from Widnes, England

    @virginmedia hi are tv and phone line are not working can you help WA8 8BS

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

    @virginmedia There’s no known issues. I shouldn’t have to spend 30 mins on hold trying to get through to you to have an issue corrected that hasn’t been done as part of my contract agreement. Shouldn’t you be able to call customers when you have an agent free who can make outgoing calls?

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia are your call centre staff ***************? Ones just been an idiot to me sounded like he couldn't be arsed while ones just sent me down a line that rings out constantly for 20 minutes. Both asked me different security questions and one flat out refused

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

    @virginmedia I get the same result hard wired with Ethernet too. It’s not a wifi issue. Also I’m not sure how wifi would decide to ignore an increase in speed and decide to limit itself to the old speed coincidentally. Someone on your end hasn’t enabled the faster speed to my property.

  • XCharlotteJadeX CharlotteJadeDuffy❀ (@XCharlotteJadeX) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia please can someone help me cancel my contract, I move house in a few weeks and have been trying to get through to you many different ways with no luck for over a month now, I need to sort this ASAP, thanks

  • philtrucker1510 Phillip (@philtrucker1510) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia any chance sorting out your internet issues in bromborough / Eastham it's a joke told you have sorted out the chip playing up yet loads locally still having problems

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

    Need to cancel my @virginmedia contract as the price is going up but the only way to cancel is by phone, with up to an hour queue time. Brilliant.

  • Nathann_B Nathan Booth (@Nathann_B) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just told told by one some in your team that, there trying to educate me and that I’m rude. After I asked to speak to there manager because they wasn’t getting the reason of my call today

  • psanders1976 paul sanders (@psanders1976) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia Any chance you firm of cowboys answering the phone to your customers , absolutely disgusting customer service keeping people on hold for over an hour then cutting them off

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

    @virginmedia Hey @virginmedia , can we arrange you to call people back rather than sitting in a queue listening to terrible music and running up mobile bill costs?

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia That's mental, the options for the departments don't make sense either. To change your package, moving home or thinking of leaving us press 4.I press 4,how can I help you, thinking of leaving you, we can't do that here we will have to transfer you to another department.**** off

  • Nathann_B Nathan Booth (@Nathann_B) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Well I was meant to be getting a phone back at 1 to speak to the manager, because of how one of your customer service spoke to me earlier on but no phone call

  • steveeades Steve Eades (@steveeades) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia Carried out the tests and internet now working but seems slow. Also there is an error noted on the Samsung set top box?

  • RagnarokAhead Technical Issues ☭ (@RagnarokAhead) reported from Runcorn, England

    Imagine my shock that @virginmedia has absolutely shafted me yet again and gone down. Can't believe I'm paying for this, utter incompetence

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia Exactly the same happened to me just, even had one of the call centre staff say I would've get a dead line when I told her I definitely will. She still transferred me down a dead line. Got told that changing provider isn't a good enough excuse to leave. Its my choice! 😡

  • steveeades Steve Eades (@steveeades) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia why is my internet not working again? WA7 4RF postcode please advise.

  • AntSweeney Unbearable for the foreseeable 🏆 (@AntSweeney) reported from Warrington, England

    @ThirdUncle2 @virginmedia I probably would have given them the benefit of the doubt and stayed on when moving house but they can **** off. Hope you have better luck next time 👍

  • philtrucker1510 Phillip (@philtrucker1510) reported from Birkenhead, England

    Your customer service is shocking @virginmedia

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

    Nearly a week after signing up to a new contract with @virginmedia they’ve still not upgraded my speed to what we agreed to. Their Twitter support refuses to acknowledge the issue and my complaint hasn’t been picked up yet. I guess they don’t care once a contract is agreed.

  • Katee_Mx Kate (@Katee_Mx) reported

    @virginmedia I would prefer a call back, I don’t see why I should spend money to get in touch with you about your poor service?

  • elah_john John Elah (@elah_john) reported

    @virginmedia Again. It isn’t specific to your Twitter feed. I am complaining about your entire customer service operation. This response is just typical of virgin media not listening to customers.

  • Goforit2050 Barber Graham (@Goforit2050) reported

    @wickerbill4 @MartinSLewis @virginmedia Call to cancel as I did and you get a better deal

  • ShaneMa40337472 Shane (@ShaneMa40337472) reported

    Ladies and Gentlemen, when dealing with @virginmedia, please keep all your emails as proof. So they can't **** you the way they tried to *******.

  • AlanRosenbach Alan Rosenbach (@AlanRosenbach) reported

    I’m leaving @virginmedia having given notice to move to a new provider and suddenly my internet connectivity is not working. What is the matter with you people?

  • RecruitmentCopy Alasdair Murray - the Recruitment Copywriter (@RecruitmentCopy) reported

    @matt_timson @virginmedia Agree. Their online chat's not working and on the page that mentions a 'what happens next' section and to 'see below', there IS no below section!

  • MattYoudale Matt Youdale (@MattYoudale) reported

    Just saved £28/month on my home broadband! Shame I had to go to the trouble of calling @virginmedia to wring it out of them (they were telling us it was going to be £62/month from April)

  • aviosAdventurer Avios Adventurer 🇬🇧🇿🇦🇹🇷🇰🇭 (@aviosAdventurer) reported

    @virginmedia I am a customer of yours. So far so good, but if you decide to put prices up, my hands are tied. You’re the only full fibre providers in my area, so I’d have to leave for an inferior service if you put prices up

  • dalotos Clan MacArthur (@dalotos) reported

    @virginmedia @TheBHF @O2 Customer care is appalling and trying to leave is a terrible customer experience. You can't cancel contract online. It has cost me hours (days for a confirmation email) and once you get through to the disconnection dep. (3x), there's no guarantee you won't have to go do it again.

  • f1cowboyman Mr F1Cowboyman (@f1cowboyman) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam This doesn't make a lot of sense. It IS advertised as UHD as all live F1 sessions are advertised as UHD. Also given that it IS in UHD on Virgin media implies a technical issue with SkyQ. Remind me why I'm paying a premium for all live F1 sessions in UHD? Very very poor
