Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Manchester, England

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

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

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

  • birdflu_7 officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia If you want I can send pictures and ALL THE emails .I don't have the time to keep discussing the same situation with yet another virgin media support staff . My time is precious.

  • 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?

  • 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

  • Woolfie30 Howard Woolfenden (@Woolfie30) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia yet again my Internet isn't working. 18m on the old Internet and not one outage. now on the new and 'improved' service and yet another outage, so many outages already.... come on sort it out I'm paying good money for this......

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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?

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

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

  • birdflu_7 officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported from Manchester, England

    @MartinSLewis I'm not sure if you can help me but here goes , in August I ended my contract with @virginmedia & to cut a long story short they still owe me £87 .+ They sent me a cheque in my maiden name so I returned it with a second copy of my marriage cert same as in 2015 1.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • SiManM20 Simon Manning 🇪🇺 #FBPE (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Will do. That was your cue to step in and offer some ‘customer service’ btw.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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 👀

  • DanStratford84 Dan (@DanStratford84) reported from Wandsworth, England

    @emotionalprawn @SkyHelpTeam @virginmedia We use virgin and have no issues at all

  • DukeOfBelmsford Alan Tracey (@DukeOfBelmsford) reported from Totton and Eling, England

    @virginmedia yet again, your company are overcharging, after cancelling our broadband (something we didn’t ask for), then reinstating at a higher rate. On the phone to Reece/Rees, he says WE have broken contract.

  • OliverMcGrath Ollie McGrath (@OliverMcGrath) reported from Barnet, England

    @virginmedia Our set up day was this week then you told us our street doesn’t have virgin so it would be delayed slightly. You delayed it almost 2 months. Then when I tried to cancel you said it could be installed next week but that was lie. Then you kept calling to sell another deal

  • Eurovisioned Alec Parkin (@Eurovisioned) reported from Manchester, England

    Two months to respond to my complaint @virginmedia. Two whole months. Still no resolution. Shameful.

  • pamelawhite1981 Pamela White (@pamelawhite1981) reported from Paisley, Scotland

    @addiej27 @virginmedia Nope they said it would be 24-48 hours. Longer than it took to cancel my account

  • andycno1 Andrew Clarke  (@andycno1) reported from Lisburn, Northern Ireland

    Have had the phone sent back once and now two weeks later still awaiting a pack to send it off again. Been told just to go to @Apple and been hung up on twice. Hundreds of pounds a month being paid to @virginmedia and not even a hint of customer service!!!! Disgusting

  • varney1987 James Varney (@varney1987) reported from York, England

    My buffering problems have reached their peak and now my internet just isn't working. When I renewed my contract I upped my contract so i would t have any buffering. @virginmedia #WasteOfTime #WTF

  • AleeOwnzz Alee (@AleeOwnzz) reported from Stoke-on-Trent, England

    @toastwiz @virginmedia Gotta be a pretty big issue to take 10 days Jesus

  • Lainey_Smiles Lainey Smiley⚫ (@Lainey_Smiles) reported from Castlereagh, Northern Ireland

    @virginmedia Nope, very happy with my Virgin broadband, been a customer since you were Cabletel, wouldn't go anywhere else! Thank you, L 😀

  • LStacey Lee Stacey (Pilchard) (@LStacey) reported from Bournemouth, England

    @virginmedia I think you have misunderstood my intent. I am telling you that your user experience is poor. I’m not reporting a disruption in the service, I am criticising it. Also, I am a customer, not a beta tester.
