Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Nelson, England

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

  • FloButcher84 strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia still no broadband in bb3 area since Thurs & update now says tomorrow for fix. Shocking customer service, why can't you tell your customers what is happening instead of saying an engineer is on the way on the updates, at least then we would know what to expect

  • jaswinburne1 James Swinburne (@jaswinburne1) reported from Silsden, England

    @virginmedia It’s technical issues with the broadband and network stability issues. No one wants to help, I’ve spoken to 3 technicians and no one has offered a resolution. Joke

  • FloButcher84 strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Yeah I've seen that already thanks, but it's not going to help the kids with accessing homework online. no I am not on a B account as of yet as I have only just started out in the last week 😑 but even if I was on a B account it would still be off so doesn't make any difference

  • Debbie_Cleo Debbie Ioanna (Author) (@Debbie_Cleo) reported from Queensbury, England

    @virginmedia honestly... your call centre/arranging anything is absolutely shocking. Twice had something arranged, twice its not happened and wrong things noted. Please sort out your call centre. This poor engineer has just turned into a complaints department

  • gazbullsfan22 Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia when is someone going to ring us back after the failure to apply the package to our account we sorted on the phone yet still hasn’t changed or a manager ringing back to deal with the complaint. Shocking services but soon quick to mailing bills out!

  • gazbullsfan22 Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia Service even worse you demand full payment and then will credit our account for your error and breach of contract! Your customers service staff rude! Demanding money before we can speak to anyone well I wonder what a solicitor would have to say with copy of the breached contract.

  • NJWesthead NJW (@NJWesthead) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia Broadband/TV outage until 2:35pm but can’t register a loss of service as page doesn’t load. On 4G so problem is with you. Why advertise you’ll compensate if there’s no way to get it?!

  • wightpie Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

  • MATTYB00SH 𝕄𝔸𝕋𝕋𝕐𝔹𝕆𝕆𝕊ℍ (@MATTYB00SH) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Yes it works on my phone browser, but not on laptop, so I'll just continue using that method, thanks. One more question; Why do your customer support agents ask for a security password that I use when speaking to an agent, despite being a new customer and haven't set this up yet

  • gazbullsfan22 Gareth Rider-Smith (@gazbullsfan22) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, we have been charged wrong for the past two months even though the account was clear when we entered a new contract with you, now we been challenging it since August! Told manager will ring and then they don’t and then you charge us wrong, and then to make your customer

  • braysoj1 Jonny Brayson (@braysoj1) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia why is the picture Quality so bad on the sky sports red button

  • wightpie Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant

  • jaswinburne1 James Swinburne (@jaswinburne1) reported from Silsden, England

    @virginmedia No one has offered a resolution. I have the same conversation time & again.... “I have reset your router”

  • WillBr1875 Will_BRFC.1875 (@WillBr1875) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia There isn't anything that could help with the problem because I don't fully understand what everything is or means etc It could do with a technician to have a look, something similar as happened before and you sent a technician out

  • FloButcher84 strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia bb3 area: internet has been down since yesterday morning & update it's not going to be fixed till tomorrow. I have a online business to run & kids need to do their homework online, can't stream any tv either. Can I ask what the issue is & why its taking so long?

  • braysoj1 Jonny Brayson (@braysoj1) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia internet gone down bd22 6hn

  • IamAbulShelby 𝔸𝕓𝕦𝕝|𝕊𝕙𝕖𝕝𝕓𝕪 (@IamAbulShelby) reported from Burnley, England

  • LovecloughKev Kevin Kitten (@LovecloughKev) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia Why is your WhatsApp chat so rubbish for the 4th time i have been kicked off. Terrible service

  • WainwrightDean Dean Wainwright (@WainwrightDean) reported from Accrington, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for fixing it this morning, I trust given I’d no service for circa 36hrs I’ll see a credit upon my next bill?

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • RecruitmentCopy Alasdair Murray - the Recruitment Copywriter (@RecruitmentCopy) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry to say it, but it's so difficult communicating with VM. The chat bot is awful, social media team can't access account details + you have a policy of threatening to put charges up out of the blue, only to actually offer a discount when someone can finally get through to you

  • Bob16051070 Fatboy Dreaming (@Bob16051070) reported

    @abdullahm3211 @virginmedia @SenseMakesNone Ok, so let's go more basic, has the Network team checked the changes implemented within the last 48hours? What information is coming back from the Network monitoring and management tools? What are the hypotheses?

  • MattFinite Matt Finite (@MattFinite) reported

    @virginmedia Looks like the issues are being resolved. Congrats. Everyone moaning about the outages, are you on a business contract with escalated support or just the usual domestic one? I retract all of this if it's just because some muppet spilled coffee on a server though!!

  • lokithomas2608 loki thomas (@lokithomas2608) reported

    @WestyCHC @chrismadine74 @virginmedia Check your emails. Don't be surprised to find one that says resolved. It wouldn't be and never was resolved but they get to close the case

  • PaulCha89812685 Happy to serve. (@PaulCha89812685) reported

    @SoniaPoulton @virginmedia Where's old Richard? He was never out of the media at one point now he's invisible.

  • JonesTheSteam72 CJ 🇺🇦 (@JonesTheSteam72) reported

    @JamesTurner37 @virginmedia Yes, widespread outage

  • HowardMarbles Howard Marbles (@HowardMarbles) reported

    @virginmedia There’s a regular problem with Virgin Media as my home just drops in and out almost daily?

  • BenW138 Ben (@BenW138) reported

    @CraigyBacha @FPLandSongs @virginmedia I only get 500 when I plug in to the router. Get around 200 on the WiFi signal

  • jamesdgreen02 jamesdgreen (@jamesdgreen02) reported

    @virginmedia Not just broadband. I lost phone signal so no phone calls no date broadband and TV

  • TinaMorley65 Tina Morley (@TinaMorley65) reported
