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

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Hi. We had to cancel our move due to a situation beyond our control, and contacted you to confirm this, and cancel the installation at the new address. Today, we’ve woken up to no services and found we’ve been disconnected. We need our phone and broadband urgently. We are…

  • BertNashCha Bert Nash (@BertNashCha) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV any help/advice on moving house. Want to stay with Virgin but can't speak to anyone and the home move team have said they've cancelled the policy? 3 days trying to speak to someone.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I have been told that: “Our wait times are very high at the moment due to an unprecedented demand to speak to the team & we are experiencing some issues with our internal systems.” What if I call and am on hold and miss an update on WhatsApp? Or email…

  • RHJOfficial яєαℓιѕт נανѕтαн 💻🖱 (@RHJOfficial) reported from Oldham, England

    I don't WTF your customer service team are doing, from transferring me to the moving team, then being transferred to cancellation, then put on hold twice, now it looks like I'm being transferred back to the moving team. @virginmedia - shambolic!

  • dublinelaine Elaine (@dublinelaine) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Done that. Have been in a queue since 8.30am. No joy. Do we have to spend the whole day like we did yesterday trying to get through? Never come across such shocking service from any company before

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Where is my payment for inconvenience, for stress and for lack of adequate customer support? I hope you will not be charging me for today, since you’ve provided me with nothing but stress. I am tired, I am ill and I am profoundly frustrated with this whole situation.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I’ve explained my issue. I don’t see how being on a queue on the phone is going to be any improvement. I just don’t see it as acceptable that there is no customer support available online until tomorrow. It’s not like I have anything to discuss. I just want my services back on.

  • dublinelaine Elaine (@dublinelaine) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia On phone now since 0830 this morning. Still on hold. Also tried on what's app. Still waiting to be put in contact with an agent. Shocking service

  • izzwoz Warrenesco Jacksonovakov (@izzwoz) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @iainmcm1 @virginmedia They cut two of my calls off after just over 1hr. 8 hours on WhatsApp yesterday and Retentions never responded. Back to back of queue today. Disgraceful

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia You’ve just told me you can’t chat until 1.30 tomorrow. But I don’t need a chat. There’s nothing to discuss. You have shut down my services in error, and I need them restored. Hopefully before 5.30 when the people I need to speak to finish for the day.

  • izzwoz Warrenesco Jacksonovakov (@izzwoz) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia Seems your business model is never answer when someone wants to leave. 8 hours on WhatsApp yesterday totally ignored by Retentions. Queuing on phone again 30min probably get cut again after 1 hour.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I need these services back today. I needed them this morning, when I was not receiving emails that I needed to respond to. I needed to know that you were going to do this, and when it was happening. I am under monumental stress and you’ve just cut out account off, for no reason.

  • BertNashCha Bert Nash (@BertNashCha) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Tried that many times. Not working within 3 days. Can you call ME instead to arrange? If not, cancelling service.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedialife @VMSolutions_ I just want reconnecting, and I want someone to recognise that we should not have been disconnected, and treat this with some urgency. Or even acknowledge that it needs resolving, and that you have some concern for my situation and the stress it is causing.

  • RHJOfficial яєαℓιѕт נανѕтαн 💻🖱 (@RHJOfficial) reported from Oldham, England

    @virginmedia So why hang up? What was the purpose of the call?

  • dublinelaine Elaine (@dublinelaine) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia tried all day to get through on phone to discuss end of contract notification. No joy. Left on hold and then cut off. How do we get to speak to someone. Shocking service.

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia I have an auditory processing disorder that can make dealing with things over the phone difficult. I am using your WhatsApp service as this was recommended to me by yourselves to avoid being ******* in long queues in the phone. I just want my services back on. That’s it.

  • davideyres David Eyres (@davideyres) reported from Oldham, England

    More @virginmedia woes, ever since Feb I've been messed about, lied to and overcharged! Can't wait for next year so I can cancel and leave! #virginmedia #rubbish

  • essers Esjay (@essers) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia This should have been simply and readily resolved, as soon as your error was brought to your attention. Just because I can’t afford to pay for the top tier of services doesn’t mean I don’t matter as a customer. A very long term, loyal customer, I would note.

  • BertNashCha Bert Nash (@BertNashCha) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Poor. Very poor. 3 days trying, being on hold, being assured return calls, moving home team have to speak to Netflix team (don't even have it), then being told it's cancelled and being give packaging instructions. Ridiculous, wanted to stay with you.

    @virginmedia When I put my postcode in it says no issues, when I test my hub it says there is intermittent connectivity in my area. I've tried this a few times and now it says there's an issue with my connection and need to check again in 24 hours

  • jessrider14 Jessica Rider (@jessrider14) reported

    @virginmedia yet again another evening of constantly disrupted internet and TV coverage. Why is this continually happening yet never see anything in the way of compensation and you actually tried to make me pay double per month for the same service?! #shitshow #unacceptable

  • shitehead_ anxious millenial ******* (@shitehead_) reported

    @rahim94 @virginmedia I’m out of contract but Mine was seven quid fella. Price gouging at its absolute worst. Shambolic

  • CRISPdotTV CRISPdotTV LET'S GET WET (@CRISPdotTV) reported

    @virginmedia hey guys, my Internet provider is showing as BT. I do have a BT connection at this property too but I am 100% confirmed as connected to my VM router. It appears to be the reason I can't get above 40mbps. Please help/save me
