Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Manchester, England

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

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia That doesn't tell me anything. Just that the engineers ".. are working hard to fix it....." The service has been down since 7 last night. And no idea when it will be fixed. With zero redress after 4 incidents in a little over a week. Poor.

  • carlroach Carl Roach (@carlroach) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia The problem is not my broadband or home service, it is the mobile signal where I work. I can not use the VM app as this requires data to validate the SIM, how else can I contact customer services directly?

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank I've switched the router to Modem to get the signal to the 2nd floor loft. Allied to the self installed mesh network, that works well. The signal isn't now the issue. Being without services from @virginmedia 3 times in just over a week, is.

  • cooper_jackie jackie cooper (@cooper_jackie) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia unhappy I have to wait until next Thursday for someone to come fix 2 of my 3 tv boxes because of the outage they had on Thursday just gone. Customer service is not very good and nobody seems to listen given the amount of calls I made to them . Not happy

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0)💙 (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia How long before the Internet problem is sorted out in the BL1 area going to take?

  • DebbieG_EA Debbie Grimshaw 🐝 (@DebbieG_EA) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia what is going on in the M34 postcode? Slow internet speeds and unreliable connection for the past three weeks now. Virtually impossible to work from home 🤯

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Now showing estimated "fix" time of 16:00. 21 hours without "service". This. Is. Not. Funny.

  • carlroach Carl Roach (@carlroach) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia Hopefully. I realise that these things can be complicated and stuff does go wrong. It is the fact that there is no effective way of communicating with you as a customer that upsets me r most. It makes me feel that I am really of no value to you.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia ANOTHER outage in BL4 9LR area? Are you kidding me? That's the fourth in just over a week. And the second today!

  • cooper_jackie jackie cooper (@cooper_jackie) reported from Manchester, England

    @lilacjennie @virginmedia Totally agree. Been with them for years and treat customers really bad.they only care about the money. See how they get on when I cancel my direct debit. Bet they will soon be on the phone trying to get payment

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

    In 10+ yrs of having #virginmedia this is only second time TV service has been down. The broadband meanwhile is up n down like a dog at the fair

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0)💙 (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia BL1 2NJ Still having problems with disconnecting and connecting, been like this for 4 hours. I have reset my router numerous times

  • BeefyBlueBanana Beefy Blue Banana (@BeefyBlueBanana) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I've had someone else helping me on the post and the upstream/downstream/networklog is showing a very noisy line. The BQM looks really bad.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia If does now. 12:00. That's 17 hours without service.

  • carlroach Carl Roach (@carlroach) reported from Middleton, England

    @virginmedia I am fully aware of this webpage, if you follow through any of the options to get information or FAQs, but no way to actually connect with VM directly. I recently used the complaint option but just got a vague response that didn't help me with my concerns.

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @johntweedie @frednfrank @virginmedia It may be 30 years old. Strangely, with BT (Cable), Sky (wired), never had issues.

  • BeefyBlueBanana Beefy Blue Banana (@BeefyBlueBanana) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia No use whatsoever I'm afraid. @virginmedia connection still completely unusable. Virgin contact number still not working. How am I supposed to get this sorted??

  • ThatGirlKatie80 Katie Mallon (@ThatGirlKatie80) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia expect a call from me tomorrow cancelling my service. Third time this week now with the same Network Availability error. Right in the middle of a film. Tired of rebooting. Bye #virginmedia, hello #SKY 👋

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

    Its been a pain in the *** with broadband down all day working from home. But now no Joy of Painting with Bob Ross! It's not the despair that gets me down, it's the hope #virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia @stewartbowie4 I'm afraid this is the new Virgin. Absolutely shocking customer service. I've been lied to and have numerous complaints in at the moment

  • mariahtiamay mariah (@mariahtiamay) reported

    @virginmedia my WiFi hasn't been working for over a month and I can't find how to get an emergency engineer to come out

  • monk_charlie Charlie (@monk_charlie) reported

    @virginmedia Our house pays for fibre 200 but two of the rooms in the house don't get a reliable signal at all and considering we pay £37 a month I would've thought it should work

  • Ankeet4 Ankeet Dhanji (@Ankeet4) reported

    @virginmedia It says no network issue found but I’m having issues

  • WayneAllert Wayne Allert (@WayneAllert) reported

    @virginmedia That's impossible to use. I sign in and you've cancelled that so I can't sign. I can't use the phone, again cos it's cancelled. It's the worst customer service page I've ever used

  • Biffash82 Ash Preston (@Biffash82) reported

    @virginmedia is that **** the person behind Twitter doesn't even know there's a problem. What ever you reply with. We have already checked. No offence to u either. It's just the way it is

  • PaMcGarry Paddy McGarry (@PaMcGarry) reported

    @VirginMediaIE Hi Virgin Media, I tried ringing 4 times today to see if I can get someone to fix my internet...can you please let me know how I can get in touch with someone who can help?

  • katheri23524514 kittykat (@katheri23524514) reported

    @virginmedia what is happening? We have had intermittent service for weeks/months, always worse in the evening. Your link tells me everything is fine but it's not. Please sort it out.

  • mimms1013 Miriam (@mimms1013) reported

    @virginmedia 2/2 The guy said the contract page on my online account is auto generated, even though I'm on a rolling 30 day contract. Which, for customers, is very confusing. He said to ignore it, but the issue is a contract shouldn't be generated when it's not valid.
