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

  • KeeganBig Frank Keegan (@KeeganBig) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia no service from 2nd box so phoned customer service. Automated voice says text with link will be sent. Call ends. Text arrived. Pressed link takes me to page which says that link isn't working. Customer service is a joke.

  • adam__moore Adam Vials Moore (@adam__moore) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia No @virginmedia it seems like a local box issue (maybe a line / router - diagnostics suggest not) - but it's not the first time this week, and my 10 year old is now pretty good at fault diagnosis due to the frequency of the failures...

  • waveyjane Jane Vickers (@waveyjane) reported from Birkenhead, England

    @virginmedia your customer service use to be the best hence I’ve stayed for 25 years. Today I have been queued for over 3 hours talking to a BOT. Shocking service.

  • SteJoycey10 Stephen Joyce (@SteJoycey10) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia Yeh if I want to sit in a queue for hours then get through to someone with no really English language skills! Virgin great when it works and awful if you ever have a problem ! Why don’t you call me?

  • rmcc01 Rick McCann. Esq (@rmcc01) reported from Roby, England

    @virginmedia Of course I have, says issue found, but I want to know how long before its back on

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I've checked the service status yesterday and twice today. I have screenshoted the result in my earlier tweet on this thread. What do I do now?

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Done that and it says no known issues. Why have you cancelled our engineer visit tomorrow. Please help

  • lucindaduffy12 Lucinda Duffy (@lucindaduffy12) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @virginmedia Thanks Anthony did arrive but very late and well after our 'slot' - he was under the impression customer services would have let us know? Such a shame to have had to complain, as he was so efficient and sorted things for us. Communication is key though!

  • SteJoycey10 Stephen Joyce (@SteJoycey10) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia paid £27 and the fight is ******* freezing wtf

  • claimsseven Stephen Smith M.D (Manic Depressive) (@claimsseven) reported from Seaforth, England

    Thanks @virginmedia for a wasted 5 minutes with one of your ops tonight, trying to flog me your 360 service which I didn't need or want. Can you just get your ops to cut straight to chase in future, instead of me telling them that I'm not interested 5 times!

  • MJPArmario Marcas Seán Pádraic Ó Donnċú (@MJPArmario) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia worse customer service I’ve ever experienced . Write to me and give me a number to contact and here I am on hold for 15 minutes . No messaging , no digital or chat options to resolve . Need someone who knows we’re in 21st century looking at your service model .

  • john_taxi ☺johnshere (@john_taxi) reported from Leigh, England

    @virginmedia We spend over £150 per month...We need help with our Virgin mobile account...The guy in India doesn't seem to understand

  • AMEB62 AME (@AMEB62) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia complaint about customer service and nuisance calls being received with no one on the line. Told I had been emailed to follow up complaint but no emails received. Appalling customer service #poorservice

  • KeeganBig Frank Keegan (@KeeganBig) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I am getting no service via the 2nd box whatsoever. The box light does not change from red. Tried switching off at the wall. Checked leads & have swapped over HDMI lead all to no avail.

  • Clare___bear Clare Bagan (@Clare___bear) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia just spoke to a lovely guy on the phone. However, I don’t understand how you can justify charging £40 + for a deal that is £32 online for a new customer. I’ve been with you 20 + years, nothing needs doing to the account. It’s already set up. No point being loyal?

  • mrmrjarrold Matthew Jarrold (@mrmrjarrold) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No I just need someone to take ownership of the problem and sort it out

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hi John, I did that yesterday & the result was Virgin booked an engineer to attend Monday. However you texted this morning saying due to issues you had to cancel the Engineers visit that was booked for Monday. No further update or comms were given. What do we do? PLEASE HELP

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hi Guy's, we've had no broadband for 36 hours now and you've just text to say you've had to cancel our engineer call tomorrow! What's going on? No broadband and no communication

  • 1agsgsg John (@1agsgsg) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia live chat, phone lines no one answers all I want to do is cancel my service

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

  • Jodiefraser5 Jodie fraser (@Jodiefraser5) reported

    @virginmedia How can I cancel my services if I am unable to get through on your customer service number and yet that is the only option you give to cancel my account with yourselves?!

  • VickyHannabuss VickyHandlebars (@VickyHannabuss) reported

    @virginmedia are you and husband ffering any discount for pupils having to work at home on your fibre? Terrible terrible connection. Can’t even get a signal I’m next room!

  • mikeperrin58 mike (@mikeperrin58) reported from Egham, England

    @virginmedia Yes I have tried this but it keeps saying incorrect details and we are not the only people with this problem

  • sam99283880 sam (@sam99283880) reported

    @virginmedia It seems virgin media can’t help at all!!

  • FuriousBlorgon A Furious Blorgon (@FuriousBlorgon) reported

    @virginmedia How do I remove TV channels from my package via your website? I can't see any obvious options and calling the customer services line just tells me you're too busy and hangs up on me

  • kjaymcf Kirsty (@kjaymcf) reported

    @virginmedia You seemed pretty blasé about the poor service for most of today though? When I pointed out you were charging me £52 for cover that doesn’t allow me to take video calls your SM rep just suggested I pay MORE for boosters to fix YOUR poor service. It’s incredible.

  • romroc1 . (@romroc1) reported

    @virginmedia probably the WORST customer service of ANY company! The pits

  • kmdp99 Katie Pagett (@kmdp99) reported

    @virginmedia renewed my contract 07/01 (58 mins) to get an email 08/01 to say it is going up by £3.50 pcm 01/05. Called to cancel, on hold for 65 mins and get cut off. How do I contact you to cancel?

  • RussTaylor83 Russ Taylor (@RussTaylor83) reported

    @virginmedia It’s an automated bot service. I’ve requested to speak to an agent via txt but being perfectly honest, I don’t hold out much hope based upon past experience....apparently in another queue anything upto 4 hours. So that’s 7 hours including calls today. Shocking.

  • AWhitehouse24 Alex Whitehouse (@AWhitehouse24) reported

    @jamesemmett13 @virginmedia Are they raising your prices? They’re raising ours and told us we can cancel, so absolutely will be doing that
