Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Preston, England

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

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia also run tests. All came back fine. Significantly below minimum guaranteed speed. Average 20mbps. Disappointed that I was promised a call and never got it. Been on hold too long. Appalling service.

  • stu_nico Stu Nicholls (@stu_nico) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    So the lack of response and the fact there is no online option to manage my BT Sport subscription means I have no option to choke up the call lines.. So much for easing the burden and stress on the customer service teams you employ @virginmedia @Virgin

  • typicalgrill Jen (@typicalgrill) reported from Preston, England

    @EyeIzMoorey @cakemog @virginmedia Can confirm virgin are bags of shit. Great when it's working but if you experience a problem. Good ******* luck., 🙃

  • ciaranharkin ℂ𝕚𝕒𝕣𝕒𝕟 (@ciaranharkin) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia hi really need to cancel my broadband account with yourselves but i cant get thru and been ringing for the past couple of days. My new bill has come out (which is extortionate) i was told i could cancel before this but its proving difficult

  • alwalsh72 Andrea Walsh (@alwalsh72) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia we cannot report because everything is down. It's up and down the whole of the country

  • trev0rj0nes trevor jones (@trev0rj0nes) reported from Southport, England

    @virginmedia still no contact. Help me out here will you

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia spoken to your “customer service”. Advised that promises for call back on live chat cannot be traced and nothing they could do. The call centre apparently has no record of live chat conversations. Advisor seemed to blame me! For a media company very poorly connected

  • EmilyMc767 Emily (@EmilyMc767) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia It’s a media account, but it was more about the quality of the call. It’s not the way to treat a customer. Thanks

  • McGovernDanDan Danielle Hickey (@McGovernDanDan) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia The worker who was in charge told me the complaint would go to him so basically it was a waste of time. I have complained but I’m not confident in your processes 😡

  • Dannymaddog Danny McKeown-Henshall (@Dannymaddog) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @PeterBayliss @Ofcom Must be a local issue for you - I’ve been relying on @ThreeUK for broadband as my @virginmedia 100mbps fibre line has been epically slow even phone calls made on Wifi calling are bad, switch to mobile and it’s perfect 👌

  • deankamitsis Dean Kamitsis (@deankamitsis) reported from Preston, England

    Hey @virginmedia I’m going round the bend trying to cancel services with you for over a week now. I’m deaf so can’t call, I’m not receiving responses via SMS or Live Chat. No emails, nothing.

  • Nicole_Baker NicoleMichelleBaker (@Nicole_Baker) reported from Whittle-le-Woods, England

    @virginmedia Hi Ty 4 the reply. Very frustrating when I'm using data at home just to receive watsapp messages. i spoke to someone yesterday afternoon. Some settings were changed & was promised it would elevate the problem, but as I described to the chap on the phone this will not rectify it.

  • Libra_Comms Ali Gudgeon ✍🏻️ (@Libra_Comms) reported from Preston, England

    Debating whether to switch from @virginmedia to @skytv after being told I can’t get new deals as I’m a loyal customer of 9 years. They’ve also put the price of my package up twice in the last 8 months 😬

  • ewart71 Jim Ewart (@ewart71) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia It’s not fixed yet @virginmedia still intermittently losing internet won the wired connection also on demand still not working without dropping out and encountering errors - get it fixed as we are sick of paying you top end broadband for nothing

  • HeywoodNick Nick (@HeywoodNick) reported from Preston, England

    @virginmedia I cant sign into virgin go....trying to watch the football tonight...but says it cant sign in now and to try later....please help...

  • dave6018 David (@dave6018) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia I will know more later when champions league football is on, but after a while on 4k the box will crash and reboot its self , but just replaced the hdmi cables so I will see how it goes, but normally I cant fault your service

  • dave6018 David (@dave6018) reported from Penwortham, England

    Wow @virginmedia love how your retention team just put the disconnection through and never offered me any thing to even try and convince me to stay

  • HelenLloyd66 Tweety Pie 🐥 (@HelenLloyd66) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia My internet and TV has been very spasmodic for a few weeks now which is annoying however it has and been down now for 24 hours. I am highly vulnerable and cannot leave the house no TV no internet this is not a service

  • dave6018 David (@dave6018) reported from Leyland, England

    @factuk @SkyUK @virginmedia @Facebook Thanks just annoys me, I pay for full tv service and idiots reselling mean I have to pay more for my legal services

  • aboardy Alison Boardman (@aboardy) reported from Walton le Dale, England

    @virginmedia reported slow speeds on Sunday. Promised a call back between 2 and 4 hours. Not received. Not getting the minimum guaranteed broadband speed yet paying in full. Proving difficult to speak to anybody. You appear not to care. #poorcustomerservice

  • SidwellMichael Michael Sidwell 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 (@SidwellMichael) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 Upon receipt of my copy of complaint email, saying complaint closed, I immediately replied saying complaint isn't closed. Not surprisingly, I 've never received a response to my reply.

  • carlpem Carl Pemberton (@carlpem) reported

    @O2 @virginmedia They won’t stay connected with an o2 sim - worse…network….ever…. I got an 02 SIM card with my VM deal so swapped from Virgin mobile. It’s shockingly bad.

  • carrih001 Honor Carrigan (@carrih001) reported

    @virginmedia Agreed to a new virgin package but not happy with it as change was never explained. I’ve complained 5-6 times, no one gets back to me and then it says complaint resolved. I’ve called again today and another complaint is going to be registered. Why is this happening!

  • FredJ64 Fred Jewsbury (@FredJ64) reported

    @AmazonUK customer service is very good! @virginmedia have a lot to learn!! Give them a call….

  • AndyrooSC AndyrooSC (@AndyrooSC) reported

    @Dangerous180 @virginmedia Yo im in Derby too DE24 same here how long it been down for you bro?

  • nativetiger73 Cr@ig C 🦊💙🦊 (@nativetiger73) reported

    @virginmedia 7 days with no service after a botched home move. 6 days of calls each ending telling us that we will have internet the next day. Now told that it will be another 4 days for internet and 11 days for TV. Not good enough and can't even speak to a manager. Shocking

  • ShirleyGriffit9 Shirley Griffiths (@ShirleyGriffit9) reported

    @whippletom They are total charlatans. I phoned to cancel my contract on 7 September. @virginmedia ignored it. After 3 letter and countless phone calls and WhatsApp chats they have today sent me a bill for service ending 11 Nov. I disconnect it myself 14 Oct in the middle of this saga.

  • Lioris_13 Just call me Lio (@Lioris_13) reported

    Bravo @virginmedia your support staff have turned a simple contract renewal into 8 days of stressful phone calls where each new person flat out lies. I just can't.... I'm trying to renew my contract is all.

  • DanielJL98 Daniel (@DanielJL98) reported

    Paying for 500 and down and 40 up and I’ve been getting 50/60 down and 15 up for the last few days @virginmedia you guys are a joke

  • KayWorboys copy by kay (@KayWorboys) reported

    @virginmedia another Friday and more internet problems!
