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

  • scottboyle6 scott boyle (@scottboyle6) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia the worse customer services ever! Passed to 4 different departments for 15 mins only to be cut off.

  • nevynxxx nevynxxx (@nevynxxx) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia I understand your call centres are suffering, but 2 hours for text chat support and a phone line that 4 menu levels deep hangs up is not good enough. Massively annoyed and time wasted.

  • gsouthy gsouthy_25 🏆 LIVERPOOL FC 👊🏼 (@gsouthy) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia How are things?? Footpath left full of mud. Having to clean footwear off or remove before coming into the house! The whole length of the footpath in front of the houses where your workers have been is a disgrace. Not even rain has washed it clean!! Terrible standard of work! 😤

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    Cracks me up that the main feature of BT’s internet provision currently being advertised is that it breaks! And you can book a slot to fix it Why not invest your advertising budget in stopping it from breaking? Not to be smug but (touch wood) @virginmedia has never conked out!

  • SamMcCartney Sam McCartney (@SamMcCartney) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @Craig273 @virginmedia No. I just want to cancel sky sports as for £31.75 a month I don’t get the use out of it. I was lied to saying it would affect my package discount. I already get BT sport for free and if Amazon will be streaming more it’s pointless

  • Logical1966 Aaron (@Logical1966) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia what the hell is the point of not having a team available for broadband faults but you can send a link to log on to your website- I can’t access your website because I my bloody broadband isn’t working are you stupid or something 🤬🤬🤬

  • btownofficial_ officialBtown (@btownofficial_) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia why is it taking so long to sort out the fifa issue it’s *************** everyone who are on VM and want to play futchamps why can’t you give us a time scale on when it should be ready @NepentheZ @Itshaber @Marshall89HD

  • courtsthomasx 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐚 (@courtsthomasx) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia My Broadband has been down for quite a few days now. I have no received any text updates and would like to speak to somebody with regards to down time and to get an ETA of when it should be back up and running.

  • FunnyTrickster Vincent Brindle 🔶🌍🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@FunnyTrickster) reported from Burnley, England

    @jmtb18 @virginmedia @Virgin_Victoria Issues in Burnley too. It's been up and down like a yoyo. TV box light keeps flashing too.

  • subz_1 𝑺𝒖𝒃𝒉𝒂𝒏 🇵🇸 ⏱ (@subz_1) reported from Accrington, England

    At this point I don’t know whether my snapchat is down or my WiFi is aids #virginmedia

  • xNasminx Nasmin Shabir ♡ (@xNasminx) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia Yes I always use the service status tool... But still signal is constantly dropping, which results in resetting the router . Not happy to say we pay £45 a month for just broadband alone and can hardly get online most of the time... It's frustrating

  • SmartCoffeeOff1 Dave R (@SmartCoffeeOff1) reported from Blackburn, England

    What do a pay for, I'm trying to watch football on now TV and losing Internet all the time, pay for a top package and **** service, @Virgin #internet #virginmedia #broadband

  • scottburnley scott mitchell (@scottburnley) reported from Colne, England

    @virginmedia can someone please get in touch with me has your broadband after 7pm is absolutely crap and I've totally had enough of it now

  • jodavidson65 Jo D #KaftrioNow (@jodavidson65) reported from Nelson, England

    @virginmedia very poor of you

  • NickyRobbo80 Nicky (@NickyRobbo80) reported from Blackburn, England

    If 2020 was an Internet provider it would be @virginmedia Solve the problem of losing IP address by restarting router. It was restarting the router that caused it. Restarted anyway and now the router won't connect to the Internet and all devices say no IP address #stressed

  • HolGaffneyx Hol (@HolGaffneyx) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Still nothing, we were told 24 hours and they would call but still no call, wondering if you can tell me how long this will take? Cause I'll cancel and go elsewhere

  • djbowers14 D J Bowers (@djbowers14) reported from Great Harwood, England

    Moved from @skytv to @virginmedia after 8 years and being a VIP customer with Sky. Poor service and a huge increase in price. Lost a longstanding customer. Now to try Virgin Media and see how this goes.

  • Logical1966 Aaron (@Logical1966) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia sorry this was for your service provider @YodelOnline not you

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

    Switching broadband providers from Virgin Media to Sky is proving to be such a bad decision while trying to work from home these last 5 weeks. Multiple connection drops every morning. It's a poor situation when tethering to your phone data is far more reliable. @SkyHelpTeam

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia you’ve sent me an outrageous bill with £35 in charges that you said you were waiving. Non of your call centres are open (undertandably) I cant get text support & there’s no other help available. You are going to bill me £120 for a £50 service and I can stop you.

  • JaneJjmack Jane Mackenzie (@JaneJjmack) reported

    @virginmedia And the whole process with the stupid Bot has started again this morning despite being in a queue for an agent last night

  • san2710 Alexandra Stevenson (@san2710) reported

    @virginmedia I've been trying to get my landline sorted for over 2 weeks now cant get anyone to help or sort it I've put 2 complaints in and heard nothing and also been on this to ask for CEO name and email address as BIG SUPRISE..NOTHING. still paying for a service I haven't got!!!

  • jezpetty Jez Petty (@jezpetty) reported

    @virginmedia @VirginMediaCorp Credit where it’s due. Broadband went down last night. Easy to log issue on app, immediately given choice of slots for an engineer today or tomorrow. Engineer Andrew was quick, polite and had sorted it by 12.30pm. Amazing service 🙌👌👏

  • ZoeVPinder Zoë victoria (@ZoeVPinder) reported

    @virginmedia No it says there isn't. I have to check it a few times a day on day because the wifi is so poor and it always says the same thing. We book an engineer, they say it's fixed, it stops working and so it goes round in circles without any improvement.

  • emmacooray Emma Cooray (@emmacooray) reported

    @virginmedia I have followed all the checks online and there seems to be an ongoing issue which isnt being resolved

  • Blue_Bitz AntiDote (@Blue_Bitz) reported

    @flavafecit @LozzaFox @virginmedia Yes it does. It’s untrustworthy and patronising when a company gives them a fake name. What if we want to make a complaint about them, as is often the case when they rigidly stick to a script? “Sorry sir, there is nobody called Trevor working here”

  • ScottC1988 Scott (@ScottC1988) reported

    @virginmedia Been trying to talk to someone on the web chat for a week and never get through to anyone!

  • Frankieabroad Frankie Belle (@Frankieabroad) reported

    @virginmedia Hi John- sorry to follow up but I’m still having wifi issues for the 3rd day in a row. Wifi was down last night and again on and off this morning. Service status says broadband is fine and I’ve rebooted and reset many times. Any ideas? Cheers

  • BobbyB1981 Rob Blackett (@BobbyB1981) reported

    How can I cancel my services without waiting on the phone over an hour @virginmedia ?

  • K69DJANDARTIST K69 ArtistandDJ (@K69DJANDARTIST) reported

    @virginmedia please please please you advise on the website to ring you. I want to speak to someone about termination. The website just sends me in a never ending loop with no number to ring
