Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Runcorn, England

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

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

    Aaaaand @virginmedia broadband is down again. Useless.

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

    @virginmedia You could at least have an option to call back customers rather than keeping them on hold. Again, this is really poor customer service.

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

    @virginmedia Internet gone again. Second time today. Bottom light goes white and starts flashing, then green and flashing. Then the arrows light up green and flash. I can’t get 24 hours out of this service. This isn’t what I pay for and it’s terrible service.

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

    So that’s @virginmedia cancelled off and their poor effort at a service. I had more reliable service with dial-up! Now signed up with @SkyUK and hoping they can at least provide me internet that I can use for a day without it going off constantly.

  • JE_Boland Jane Boland (@JE_Boland) reported from Seaforth, England

    Been on hold @virginmedia for 25 mins- now on 3rd call and nearly 2 hours. Shocking customer service. Making my decision to leave that much easier.

  • flux_blair Alex Downes (@flux_blair) reported from Liverpool, England

    Just had a call from @virginmedia asking me what I use my network for, how many devices I have on the network. Please mind your own business, answers to these questions can be used by OCGs to target my home and only call me if you really have to. Thanks

  • BarryWalters7 Barry Walters (@BarryWalters7) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia yet again our home phone line is not working, can you please let me know when I can expect to have it in working order as per our contract

  • Lyntrick L҉y҉n҉n҉ K҉i҉l҉p҉a҉t҉r҉i҉c҉k҉ (@Lyntrick) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia IT says there's no issues in the area, the speed test was done wirelessly. I have the hub in the same place I have always had the modems, hubs in. This issue has been ongoing ever since I received the newest hub. All wires are in tightly so it's not that. I have a new phone too

  • spuddy1878 Neil (@spuddy1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Two different mobile phones and no joy at all. It’s picking up another WiFi signal from someone else but not from my home.

  • elisanarbs Elisa Narborough (@elisanarbs) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia no internet for two hours now: Wifi light green and base light is flashing green, service status in wa1 area said no known issues, please help!

  • JE_Boland Jane Boland (@JE_Boland) reported from Seaforth, England

    I have been on the phone with @virginmedia for nearly two hours and am no closer to getting my problem solved.

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

    @virginmedia And this is why I don’t bother calling you for the most part. The service desk where I work are in trouble if customers are on hold for 20 seconds. Virgin are a huge company and can’t afford a call centre where customers don’t have to wait 15 mins (so far) on hold.

  • leighwynne33 Leigh Wynne (@leighwynne33) reported from Seaforth, England

    @micramanic @virginmedia @ThreeUK I had weeks without it because of box outside. The connection had de-ttached and thats why rounter wasnt pickin up signal

  • rayjono50 Ray Jono (@rayjono50) reported from Seaforth, England

    Just been holding on the phone for over 30 minutes to speak to a "human being" from Virgin Media" I lost the will to live and hung up. Will call tomorrow to tell them I will be leaving sick of their poor service.

  • scoobyjue julie hennelly (@scoobyjue) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia this company is an absolute joke. This is like 6 engineers numerous phone calls’ complaints. Can’t get them to call us back. Paying for service that doesn’t work!

  • JoelLJelen JoelJelen (@JoelLJelen) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia it’s 2019, your online customer service is so poor and your offline telephone service saw me waiting 15 mins and still in a queue! Given up.

  • Lyntrick L҉y҉n҉n҉ K҉i҉l҉p҉a҉t҉r҉i҉c҉k҉ (@Lyntrick) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia So it's not the devices. As I say it's only since this new hub. All I get when I ring customer services is run these tests etc equipment working fine but there must be some underlying problem somewhere

  • scoobyjue julie hennelly (@scoobyjue) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia hardly got no service. Rang and complyyet again. Then been told our wiring was wrong and has been for for nearly a year since installed. Gave us excuse after excuse. But still paying full price Engineers been out twice to do new wire. We have put complaint in and

  • scoobyjue julie hennelly (@scoobyjue) reported from Seaforth, England

    @virginmedia and still waiting. Internet keeps going off. Can’t leave because still tied into a contract yet we still have to pay for service we can’t use! #joke

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

    30 mins on hold to @virginmedia so far. Absolutely awful customer service. Again.

    @virginmedia terrible internet quality on the highest speed plan with intermittent connections through the day (sw7)

  • vmbusinesshelp Customer Service (@vmbusinesshelp) reported

    @virginmedia @shombell hi, I am sorry that you are having issues with the service, can you tell me are you still experiencing this? if so can you please provide the full post code, via a DM @vmbusinesshelp with the information. many thanks

  • richardslater Richard Slater (@richardslater) reported

    @virginmedia there is also a "Security Question" which isn't the same as the "Memorable Security Word" it seems - to the best of my knowledge I never set a different "Security Word" - I use a password manager so I store all of this information as I sign up.

  • FPLTrap FPLTrap (@FPLTrap) reported

    @virginmedia my wifi has just gone out and I have restarted it and it’s still not working

  • Grahamthecabbie Graham Long (@Grahamthecabbie) reported

    @virginmedia It’s awful. The wifi drops out and when I call 150, it’s an automated service offering me a text message with a link. What’s the use of a link when I can’t access the internet because your wifi is down? 🤔

  • KatNatHill Kat Hill (@KatNatHill) reported

    @virginmedia It only tells me what the service checker says. It’s been happening every day for a week now. Seems to get fixed and then goes off again the next day

  • davidwaddington David Waddington (@davidwaddington) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. Your speeds have been terrible in the SG2 area for the last two days. It says everything is fine but 4mbps download on a 200mbps is not fine. Please can you investigate?

  • itsjustvix ItsJustVix🧁 (@itsjustvix) reported

    @virginmedia We've enquired but never had a real answer why! So our houses were built in 2016.. Numbers 1-53 on the street can have virgin and 80-onwards can. But numbers 55-79 (the new houses) can't!

  • garyrudd2 gary the cab (@garyrudd2) reported

    @Grahamthecabbie @virginmedia Had virgin wi fi absolutely crap , buffering all the time , replaced with BT not had a problem

  • GamingDad18 StoryTime (Coming Soon) (@GamingDad18) reported

    @virginmedia That screenshot was wireless my friend. But wired is only piping out 14mb. I've reset the hub and done every fix I know but it's not improving sadly
