Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Manchester, England
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Manchester and nearby locations:
-
Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years. Is this how your treat your loyal customers?
-
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.
-
Martyn The Driver (@martyn_driver) reported from Rochdale, England@virginmedia after 26 years as a loyal cable customer it is time to say goodbye. It would seem that loyalty is not rewarded, and you don't want low use customers
-
Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia It works intermittently. When I speak to an advisor they fix the issue at that moment. Then, the next day it’ll cut out again and the process repeats. It was working when the engineer left, but it didn’t last 24 hours. Intermittent isn’t good enough. I rely on you for work.
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia It’s everything connected via Wi-Fi. I don’t have the connect app. I check for service status on your website and it usually says there isn’t an issue, but that doesn’t reflect my service.
-
David (@Aldehulme) reported from Oldham, England@virginmedia I need to speak to somebody regarding a broadband problem without you running a check that will cut me off the internet. How do I get past this to speak to a person?
-
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
-
🦔🦊Johnny1983 🦝🐱 (Big Animal Lover🐕🐶🐁) (@JohnnyDude1983) reported from Bury, England@virginmedia It's nothing you can help with on twitter unfortunately 😞.
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?
-
Alec Holloway (@HollowayAlec) reported from Stretford, England@virginmedia is unbelievable that our Internet is so poor, trying to contact someone via phone on numerous occasions waiting for over 45 minutes to speak with someone. Still haven't been able to get through to anyone.
-
Emily (@ErHes1997) reported from Timperley, EnglandHow can @virginmedia say "yes there's a problem in your area, we expect it to be fixed on Wednesday"... 5 days is a joke when you'll never see that money returned to you for lack of service provided
-
Martin Moscrop 🎺 (@martinmoscrop) reported from Salford, England@LennieThevan @virginmedia That sounds terrible Lennie. If you want to change a plan and save money they go out of their way to be unhelpful. However, if you want to spend more their customers service Is better.
-
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 👀
-
Dave (@bigdave22003388) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia im guessing technical support ain’t working ? Got no tv and can’t get any help
-
Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported from Stockport, EnglandBeen on a live chat to Virgin Media since 9:30. WFH joys. Not much work has been done. But got my bill down. #CozzieLivs.
-
Simon Manning 🇪🇺 #FBPE (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Will do. That was your cue to step in and offer some ‘customer service’ btw.
-
Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England@virginmedia Submitting a complaint will probably result in an apology at best. Given I pay £1k per annum for an unreliable service it’s time to look for an alternative provider who can offer a more satisfactory customer experience
-
Mike Chilton (@thechilledpanda) reported from Bramhall, England@virginmedia Unbelievable, you've sent me a dongle to connect a landline too the broadband on the 6th , so the phone line isnt going to work, though not much help on 150 as they abruptly cut you off. Website is also down.
-
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

Charmaine Rome (@eightieschick72) reported@virginmedia @epwhamilton @virginmedia Same issue here. Took 1 hour on the phone to Virgin to be told there’s an outage. No comment about it on your website. And no idea when it’s being fixed. Moved from BT 3 weeks ago for more reliable internet. Not impressed at all.
-
Mr H (@silestanix) reported@O2 @virginmedia not a fan of doing this but o2, you guys have made a holiday in the USA as difficult as possible. After many conversations with advisors on the chat I STILL CANNOT Make calls back to the UK from here in the USA. I'm a volt customer but will rethink this...
-
Rob Jones (@robhjones) reported@virginmedia I’ve only used iplayer since changing but it’s impossible to watch anything so there’s obviously some connection problem and extremely annoying as its in the evening when we watch
-
Mr H (@silestanix) reported@O2 @virginmedia ... Was here in April, no issues whatsoever ever. My account was under review for suspected fraud, this investigation was closed on Tuesday, it's now Friday and I STILL CANNOT get thru to family back in the UK because you're not allowing me to make calls...!!!
-
Keeleys Lettings (@KeeleysMaldon) reported@gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia I switched from Sky to Virgin, worst decision I ever made. All was fine until I renewed my contract, they overcharged me for services agreed and I even had it in black and white on a contract from them, multiple phone calls to India with no resolution. Buffers all the time too
-
Eddy James (@ImproperFooty) reported@gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Sky is awful. Treat their long term customers terribly. Was paying a fortune for sky sports & they pack it with you tubers. I'm not paying £80 to watch some **** I can already watch for free but don't! IPTV all the way now 👍
-
antony coyne (@Ant78uk) reported@virginmedia sort your payment page out on the app and online will you I can never get past the bank approval part for the last few months
-
Fed By Monkeys (@barneymcg999) reported@JonStone101 @virginmedia U need to threaten to cancel.
