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

  • krisminime Kristoffer Tsinontas (@krisminime) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia This texting service is absolutely dire. Random disconnects. New people don’t have the chat history. Being passed between dependents constantly leading to 10+ hour waits. I don’t want to sit on hold on the phone. Can someone DM over Twitter instead?

  • skulkinloafer The SkulkingLoafer (@skulkinloafer) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been waiting since 15:30 for someone to come back to me via your chat service. You claim it allows me to get on with the rest of my day but it also means it takes me about 3 days of dedicated screen time to get a response?

  • endaburke81 Enda Burke (@endaburke81) reported from Manchester, England

    Blimey yet again @virginmedia is down in Manchester :-(

  • wesleypearce Wesley Bennett-Pearce (@wesleypearce) reported from Salford, England

    Hey @virginmedia - third long-term outage in as many days in my area. What is going on and why is it impossible to talk to someone? Each time you triumphantly announced it’s fixed, something else breaks? This is unacceptable and your comms with customers is poor. #virginmediadown

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    Hi, it's Virgin Media. We've put your service visit on hold while we investigate a network problem affecting your services. We'll update you when this is fixed. 3rd time in a week @virginmedia 3rd time in a week

  • sibley14 Sibley14 (@sibley14) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia Can’t stay connected if there’s no signal! #Stockport #virginmediadown

  • WrenJohn John Wren (@WrenJohn) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia going from bad to worse, trouble with new Hub 4, now tried for two days to get engineer to attend and sort out the faulty phone line for an elderly. & vulnerable relative, appallingly bad customer service, all they do is blame Covid. They are a complete disgrace!

  • niallbrown23 ıllıllı ℕ𝕚𝕒𝕝𝕝 𝔹𝕣𝕠𝕨𝕟 ıllıllı (@niallbrown23) reported from Marple, England

    @virginmedia Used another computer just seems to be a chromebook issue

  • beefstock3 colin paul henstock (@beefstock3) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia so I pay £140 per month for your gig 1 broadband yet it’s been slow for last 3 weeks and the last 24 hours I had no internet full stop so how will you resolve this please.

  • Cuttsrich rich cutts (@Cuttsrich) reported from Tyldesley, England

    Mmm @virginmedia wifi down again for the third day in over a week. Any chance anyone can help here

  • DallasCowboysMV Michael Vix (@DallasCowboysMV) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia internet down for me. Your tests keep failing and now it’s telling me you can’t run anymore tests until tomorrow. Engineers visit page crashed as well 😡

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja (@CurryInTurry) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia It's £10 pm extra. I'm pleased with it just wish you could sort signal out where I live. Hope when swap to 02 your signal will be better

  • twiddlemeister Dave (@twiddlemeister) reported from Cheadle Hulme, England

    I think @Cosatto_Tweets has to have the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. And I’ve rung Virgin Media a fair few times.

  • j_roddy Jane (@j_roddy) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has replied to me, very poor service to a customer that has been with your company for 15 years

  • bigghandsltd Jon Rebbeck (@bigghandsltd) reported from Manchester, England

    Dear @virginmedia I contacted you over 9 days ago, you quickly responded to take my complaint off social media but didn’t reply to my response. Your service is diabolical! £55 per month for a poor #broadband service @VirginMediaNews #ripoff @BroadbandCensus

  • CurryInTurry DJ Nerja (@CurryInTurry) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia Virgin TV Go app on Android still down. One week now. This is not good. Missed loads of stuff when out and about. And yes I have uninstalled and reinstalled on multiple devices!

  • RaivisOlehno Raivis Olehno (@RaivisOlehno) reported from Middleton, England

    Really bad customer service from @virginmedia . Was told that manager will call me within 1 hour. As expected, nobody called. Overcharged me and refusing to refund.

  • Mrs_H_Clifford ♥ Hayley Clifford ♥ (@Mrs_H_Clifford) reported from Mottram in Longdendale, England

    @virginmedia absolute disgrace rearranged 2 installations now. Been over 2 months now. Excuse after excuse. This is how you treat new customers??!! Disgrace

  • j_roddy Jane (@j_roddy) reported from Urmston, England

    @virginmedia who do I complain to for poor customer service? The consultant laughed at me, spoke over me, told me to stop talking and then put the phone down on me...I think you need to address your customer service training.

  • WrenJohn John Wren (@WrenJohn) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia You cannot try to say that leaving an elderly vulnerable person in their eighties for so long without a telephone is acceptable, nor is trying to make COVID an excuse. @virginmedia are failing in their responsibilities. Hub 3 worked fine Hub 4 will not, poor tech by you?

  • Malcy7 Malcolm Saunders (@Malcy7) reported

    @virginmedia just wondering why you didn’t respond to one of the hundreds of tweets last night regarding the problem with the boxing? Awful customer service???

  • Da_MalonNFT Da_Malon LT 🌘 (@Da_MalonNFT) reported

    @discord down? Or is my internet bugging ******** out again @virginmedia

  • 2WB10 2WB (@2WB10) reported

    @Rory4Spurs @virginmedia Nope. They installed my equipment on Thursday said it’s all done and left but it doesn’t work. I’m going in circles on the phone and their WhatsApp chat. They either cut me off or ignore. I’ve disconnected it all and it’s sitting in the box. Great start for a new customer!

  • BethNunnington Beth Nunnington🦩 (@BethNunnington) reported

    @virginmedia Hello, it’s currently down 🙁. It came on intermittently last night but was mainly offline

  • stephwales_ Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England

    A week of no issues after a month of next to no tv and now it starts all over again. I have sound and the guide but just a black screen on every channel. So glad my contract is up, deffo going to be leaving this time. Waste of time and money!!!!! @virginmedia

  • dancopestake Dan Copestake (@dancopestake) reported

    @virginmedia - since moving to your 200mb Fibre from BT fibre last month I have been inundated with connection dropouts. This is severely affecting my ability to work from home efficiently. Please see a paste of the network log from my router just this morning below:

  • kyle_W87 Kyle (@kyle_W87) reported

    @virginmedia how do I get a refund for the fight last night? The "technical issue" you had means I missed some of the undercard

  • Miss_Alaynius *tuts loudly* (@Miss_Alaynius) reported

    @virginmedia my WiFi is intermittent, followed instructions to restart my rooter, but why does it take such a long time to reconnect to the WiFi? It’s over 40 minutes now and still flashing Green. Your app says there’s no problem in my area. I never understand this.
