Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Oldham, England

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

  • AckersStorm Chris Atkinson (@AckersStorm) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia when will the broadband issues be fixed properly in my area?

  • sharper76 Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve just connected a new router for faster speeds and it isn’t working. I’ve called up and your customer services person who told me contradictory information, put me on hold and then hung up on me.

  • sharper76 Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No it’s not, and it has now transpired that your customer services agent told me a direct lie that there was a fault in my area when there is not. Someone else has now booked an engineer to come out - next Wednesday. I can’t even have my heating on as that’s controlled vía wifi

  • mark001282 Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I spoke to your customer service team on 2nd January who advised all issues had been resolved and my sim card was being sent out by royal mail delivery. Even with any postal delays out of your control it seems odd that it hasn't arrived.

  • SiManM20 Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @nrgloz @virginmedia Your paying 75% of what we are for 35% of the d/speed there. Neighbour has just switched to Brsk - it’s full #fttp so 1Gb both up/down rather than the 52Mb UL Virgin offer via DOCSIS. £40pm

  • johnsonhomes2 johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Her phone like works at the moment because she has power but not in a power cut. This is one of the issues set out in the email which VM requested I send on Wednesday

  • nathangreen101 Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    Hi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?

  • mark001282 Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia you have caused me nothing but hassle for months now. Your customer service team are completely useless.

  • sharper76 Smyth Harper 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🇺🇦☘️ (@sharper76) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia In the orders and appointments section it says there are none. The text I have received confirming the appointment and threatening me with a £25 fine is different to the one offered to me by your customer services.

  • johnsonhomes2 johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia If that was the only issue than yes that would be the logical next step. But as you’ll see from the previous tweets and email sent on Wednesday it isn’t. All the issues need dealing with in the round or otherwise I’ll have to cancel and go back to sky.

  • EdwinDa18453545 Edwin Daniel (@EdwinDa18453545) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson @VirginMediaCC unethical practice & worst cust serv.after 50 days of total loss of service and no resolution and taking 52 pounds for that period from me now they are denying compensation as well as refund of monies taken.

  • mark001282 Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia As I say. I don't like publicly shaming a company that was once good. But your customer service is an absolute disgrace

  • johnsonhomes2 johnsonhomes (@johnsonhomes2) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia The guy I spoke to at VM yesterday said that she wouldn’t be eligible for a “disabled” phone line to be installed because it wasn’t claimed when they dug the front garden up 18 months ago. We were never given this as an option at the time, if we had we would have insisted on it.

  • anttaylor23 Anthony Taylor (@anttaylor23) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia The what's app line is fine, your advisers don't seem like they want to keep me as a customer. Well not for a decent price anyway 👀

  • Laura_May_Ness Laura May (@Laura_May_Ness) reported from Manchester, England

    Hi @virginmedia I have just moved into a new apartment where Wi-Fi is included. I have registered as a resident and I have received a pre-contract email but no account number and I am unable to connect to the Internet. Can you help me set things up?

  • roslers_vest Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England

    @bluecitygirl232 @virginmedia I had the same issue with them in December always down not reliable couldn’t WFH so binned them off went to BT and fingers crossed not had an issue to date

  • mark001282 Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Don't give me your copy and pasted waffle. You have done nothing to help. You have been an absolute thorn in my side! "I'm so sorry you feel this way" is such an outdated and terrible response from a marketing point of view btw.

  • mark001282 Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    Every time speak to @virginmedia @Virgin customer service I die a little bit inside #emogirl

  • mark001282 Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years. Is this how your treat your loyal customers?

  • bigdave22003388 Dave (@bigdave22003388) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia im guessing technical support ain’t working ? Got no tv and can’t get any help

  • mattylynn79 Matt Lynn (@mattylynn79) reported from Hillingdon, England

    @virginmedia been waiting 5 days for a call back about my package now. Rang 3 times and each time they have “guaranteed” a call back within 24 hours. I know we are in a pandemic but quite shocking customer service

  • Titch17 XxTrishxX (@Titch17) reported from Perth, Scotland

    @virginmedia AR Thank you however this is not helpful. We need someone to take ownership which equates to excellent customer service

  • bubspinki Deborah Smith (@bubspinki) reported from Banstead, England

    @virginmedia Well not sure what to say contacted you for help and no further forward .... spent numerous minutes tweeting u and nothing sad times when all I want to do us make sure my mum is ok 👌🏼

  • x_graciee 🏳️‍🌈ɢʀᴀᴄɪᴇ ⁷ - #Bʟᴍ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 (@x_graciee) reported from Bedworth, England

    virgin media need to fix their wifi. absolute shite! of course it’d go down in the middle of the night when nobody can help 🙃😴 @virginmedia

  • burgess32 helen burgess (@burgess32) reported from Harlow, England

    Absolutely disgusted that @virginmedia feels it’s ok to cancel installing my nans landline not once but twice and give a new installation date of 10th September. For a landline she desperately needs for an emergency pendant.

  • canadianweeg Kris Schimmel (@canadianweeg) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @virginmedia down again

  • sparkymcgrath70 Right Beer Right Now (@sparkymcgrath70) reported from Bromley, England

    @virginmedia really need some help here. Internet has been patchy for the last few weeks to say the least but the past few days has been almost non existent. Called helpline followed advise, reset router etc, no joy! Making home schooling for my kids impossible, please help!

  • x_graciee 🏳️‍🌈ɢʀᴀᴄɪᴇ ⁷ - #Bʟᴍ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 (@x_graciee) reported from Bedworth, England

    @AdwFifa @virginmedia yup. box keeps flashing the green WiFi symbol, piece of ****😩

  • 87Patthehammer Patrick (@87Patthehammer) reported from Belfast, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia I absolutely detest your broadband... your online app... your website... your stupid wee robot questionnaire thingy, it’s as useful as a glass hammer 😡🤬
