Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Runcorn and nearby locations:
-
Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England@virginmedia I'm checking online and it's saying there is an issue with the TV, but saying broadband is fine. I've had constant disconnections throughout the day for 2 weeks now. It works for a few minutes then goes off. What is going on?
-
Emma Latham (@EmsydilemsyL) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia advice please! I’ve been a customer for over ten years and am also an o2 customer and my account is now going up by another £12 per month on a pretty basic package! Phoned twice and been told that someone will get back to me with a new price package - still nothing
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Telling me an engineer will come next week now, not good enough. Waited in all morning for one that never came and still no service.
-
Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia It says there's no issues at the moment, but I'm only getting 13mbps.
-
DRood 🏳️🌈🎗 (@DoctorRood) reported from Chester, England@virginmedia What does Virgin do for disabled people, when their internet goes down?
-
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”
-
Lee (@Crosby71) reported from Seaforth, England@_Ludachris @virginmedia Not any more, got **** of them ages ago
-
Mark Langshaw (@MarkLangshaw) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Hello, my broadband was supposed to be installed on 6th Sept but your engineer only did half a job and ****** off. When I call up to find out when you're coming back to finish my installation, I can't get a straight answer and nobody calls me back! Shite service!
-
Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia If my bill went down with my speed, I wouldn't mind.
-
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.
-
Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England@Sarahlw_95 @virginmedia Sarah I wouldn’t bother with WhatsApp, I’ve been speaking to various people for over a month on there trying to sort my incorrect bill. They just tell you it’s resolved when it isn’t. Scandalous service.
-
Jack Kelly (@realjackoh187) reported from Widnes, England@virginmedia Just wifi, the phones tablets tv all just going off randomly. I have now booked a technician but I have been doing the troubleshooting for 2 days and its saying the issue is being fixed. Its only today they have said to send a technician
-
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!
-
Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia thanks for the awful internet service, f*cking useless you are
-
DM 🦌 (@DaveMbootlebuck) reported from Litherland, England@virginmedia Mine has just gone down now. I can’t ring via the virgin phone because the phone is connected to the hub.
-
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?
-
Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England@virginmedia Trying to make a complaint - signed up to a deal I clearly asked not to be. Your website doesn’t work and can’t get through on the phone. Can someone please dm me with a way to speak to someone urgently

Cambo (@cambo691) reported from Birkenhead, England@les_murray71 @virginmedia This and their woeful customer service is why we binned them off mate
-
James (@jgrailpics) reported from Liverpool, EnglandCompletely pathetic useless company @virginmedia Every single day there's some sort of problem EVERY SINGLE DAY Can't wait til this contracts over, after that in a bit useless crap

Margaret Miller (@Margare87468895) reported@gnh_Eastwall I hear this poor girl is 18! I'm doing jail for life if it was my 18 year old daughter ! I'm so ******* angry ! Why is this being swept under the carpet? RTE ? VIRGIN media? Main stream media ! ??????FFS 😡😡😡
-
RyanCartier (@RyanCartiers) reported@virginmedia No, that has resolved nothing. A fundamental change to actually learning to provide timely customer service is required. 6 min. to schedule a call back 20 min. later - approx. 30min lead time Pick up phone and resolve issue <5 minutes. who needs math class?
-
Ryan (@SarkySodRyan) reported@virginmedia And given I'm already annoyed - don't ask me if I've switched it off and back on again. Of course I have. It still doesn't work.
-
RyanCartier (@RyanCartiers) reported@virginmedia The delayed call back does not change corp. #customerservice practice or reduce long lead times plaguing @Bell - ANSWERING customer calls when called is needed. - Stopping the use of unproven AI. - Address consistent #customersupport deficiencies reported online.
-
Dipu (@dipu412) reported@IainSankey @virginmedia Had same issues. Have kept land line, Minimum TV pkg & B/Band. Renewal in April Next yr. TV package is going. Do not need to pay for it. If reasonable reduction not offered I will have to look elsewhere. VM is overrated and expensive.
-
Si Smith (@sjslfcforever) reported@virginmedia @CliveR39 Any chance you can fix the issue of the football being 30 seconds behind on a so called live game. Thanks in advance
-
JC (@Ahwellnevermind) reported@IainSankey @virginmedia They’ve been like it for years. Deliberately make it difficult for customers to leave. Terrible company
-
Reeni 🇯🇲 (@__neerihs) reportedI had no service on my Virgin Media for a weekend. So now I’m getting credited £30 😌
-
emma_tr4_rhinos🦏🇬🇧 (@emma_tr4_rhinos) reported@virginmedia @kathleenp442 Not everyone as apps they pay for skysports on TV expect it to work thts two days in a row when is the expected fix
-
Jambo (@The_real_Jambo_) reported@virginmedia @alexand979677 I had no TV service for 16 days during the worldcup. Eventually fixed it and they refused to discount my bill because I still had internet. Been with them for nearly 7 years, renewals up soon and the best price they can offer is £15 DEARER than my current price.
