Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Prescot and nearby locations:
-
Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia And the last complaint I raised over this got cancelled because it didn't have any details to the complaint even though all the messages are there to see through your WhatsApp service but the retentions team can't see that or deal with the complaint or help in anyway way
-
Laser Lux, Wigan. (@TheWiganParky) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia It says there's no issues at the moment, but I'm only getting 13mbps.
-
Ian Hawksey (@ShanklyBob77) reported from Aintree Village, EnglandAbsolute nightmare trying to watch @SkySportsF1 on my phone because of how poor @virginmedia are especially since merging with @o2, used to just put email and password in, now going around in circles with same message asking me to verify email link and switch, very poor practice.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.
-
Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Sorry I really don’t get it. A few hours ago I was told that your team would investigate etc. Now you’re telling you don’t have any access so I’m left to hang on with no one from VM being able to update me. Is that it?
-
Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia Don't use this company its disgusting and disappointing the way they treat customers. Been trying to sort my contract out for 3 months now while they rob my money, create contracts that I've not agreed to and cancel complaints that I've raised.
-
Elisabeth Hilton (@elisabethhilto4) reported from Lowton, England@virginmedia Been signed up to a contract I specifically asked not to be. Unable to get through on the phone and your online complaint submission form does not work. Can someone please contact me urgently
-
Alan Dean (@alandean1878) reported from Roby, England@virginmedia Everything struggles to stay connected to the Internet. Mobiles, laptops, the TV's. I'm not sure if the speed is an issue as I haven't checked it. (I'm not sure how to.)
-
Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England@MarkKav15119614 @virginmedia Well my bills ain't getting paid today so will get charges, anything i try to do on apps / chrome not working, twitter on and off

-
Josh (@Parleyyyyyy) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia I’ve just done that. If you watch the video though you’ll see it doesn’t even let me get to the login page. As soon as I click on virgin media customer it tries to take me to a website & then closes down
-
IanRob79💙 (@IanRobEfc1878) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia your red button service is absolute dogshit you either get the wrong commentary or it doesn’t even come on! 🤯🤬

murf (@JohnMurphy9172) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia Just managed to get hold of someone, and apparently after over 10 years of no problems I now need WiFi boosters at an extra cost to myself all of a sudden, they couldn't tell me why just trying to squeeze more money out of me
-
Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia I have to say your Internet connection is ridiculous... for months on end, it's been shocking. I'm sick and tired of resetting my hub, I shouldn't be having this issue. Never had so much issue for the years I've had you and now, the past 6 months, I'm paying monies…
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia It’s to our address, we need a full repull and was told it would be done within 48hrs. This issue has been going on for months, they were just telling me to reboot the hub.
-
DM 🦌 (@DaveMbootlebuck) reported from Seaforth, England@virginmedia No. Can’t get through. I’ve just submitted a complaint
-
Lesley Murray (@les_murray71) reported from Wallasey, England@virginmedia Thats just an update to say they are dealing with the issue, people want to know what the issue was and why it is taking so long to repair, there is a continuous extension to repair time and your customers at least deserve detailed information
-
Nicola Bates (@Nicolajb87) reported from Liverpool, England@virginmedia can you help my mum and dad they have had no telephone line since yesterday. The internet also went off but that seems to be back on now. It’s vital we get the phone on asap
-
Jemima (@JemimaCamhs) reported from Garston, England@virginmedia Hi, will this continued investment mean finally getting signal in my area? It’s a central area and the signal is awful. Thanks
Virgin Media Issues Reports

-
Sheps (@ShepsSW19) reported@virginmedia no Internet or WiFi for 6 weeks. Spent 12+ hours on the phone to customer services on numerous occasions. Promised a cable installation on 3 seperate occasions now, not once has someone turned up. Lies. Broken promises and woeful customer service. Not good enough 😡
-
Stephen Old German - English Translator (@old_stephen) reported@virginmedia You don't have nearly enough proper shops, or even telephone help lines, where I can get help with your products. Now you have made it even more difficult for me to log into my account online. What is the point of being a Virgin customer?
-
Sam Greenland (@SprocketEtQuill) reported@virginmedia Another Virgin Media engineer came out again to bury the cable from house to street. The cable is now in trunking over ground and the internet service was severed. You have said it will take yet another on-site engineer to fix the connection and left me without a connection for the week - until an engineer is available. You have, however, paid £100 towards the cost of the alternative internet provider. Your logic was £30 for data (on a #GiffGaff SIM card which I chose) and £70 for a dongle. I bought a £120 4G modem for external use that connects directly to my #Unifi switch on WAN2, bypassing your hub altogether and giving a connection back to my whole house rather than just one computer with a USB port. Given it's taken since November to bury this cable, I'm not convinced tomorrow's engineer will be able to fix the connection or bury the cable. We will see how the day unfolds. Your contact centre staff all aim to be very helpful, and your service (when it's working) does provide a decent connection most of the time, but your implementation is lacking.

Steve Furniss (@SteveFurni7742) reported@virginmedia Having spent 90 minutes awaiting a call at 8am without any response this morning & viewing your very poor chat bot service, i have to say your customer service is now the poorest ever from an existing customer of over 30 years. I will try again on sunday to resolve my issue
-
Kevin Burke (@kevin0403) reported@virginmedia can you tell me what your issue is? Over a week to try and speak to someone and no further forward, currently been in a queue for over 3hrs?
-
Samina Masood (@Samina_masood3) reported@VirginMedia We’ve had complete loss of internet since 2/5/26 due to broken cable, yet no proper fix or technician visit despite repeated promises. Instead, you sent someone to “clean router” & logged it as speed issue not total outage. This is unacceptable. Plz resolve urgently.

Mr Onion (@DanielRobe94975) reported@virginmedia Why can't I login in. In a constant verification loop between the website and my email address.
