Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Manchester and nearby locations:
-
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.
-
Chris Atkinson (@AckersStorm) reported from Middleton, England@virginmedia when will the broadband issues be fixed properly in my area?
-
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.
-
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.
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia I also don’t need to monitor the quality of my broadband, I already know it’s awful. I don’t understand how that would help.
-
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
-
Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England@virginmedia network down again in Heywood appalling lack of service yet again
-
Nathan (@nathangreen101) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, EnglandHi @virginmedia is there a particular reason your engineers phone to say they are here but never actually turn up?
-
🐝Louise🐝 (@louaze) reported from Manchester, EnglandSkysports app with virginmedia login hasn't been working today so having to old school "watch" via live updates here. HORRIBLE way to sit thru that 8mins!!
-
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 👀
-
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.
-
Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Yes, tried last night and your service status page was actually down. Today I checked and it showed no issues, I run the diagnostic and no issues either. Came back up late this afternoon.
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia I was also promised a call back from a manager within 24 hours on a phone call on Friday afternoon. I did not receive this phone call. This is absolutely disgusting and I expect something to be done. I rely on your service for my income as I work from home. (2/3)
-
officially Gaynor Austin 💙 (@birdflu_7) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia I have numerous emails of my complaint , all of them paying lip service so to speak .
-
Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England@virginmedia Will they help if the Wi-Fi is working at the time I call? Because my issue is that when it is working, your advisors consider their work done despite telling them that it usually doesn’t last. And invariable, it doesn’t.
-
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
-
Hannah Tompkins (@he_tompkins) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia my broadband was “delivered” today by Yodel but the package is no where to be seen and wasn’t attempted (I’ve been in all day waiting). I can’t get any help from them, please help!! 😭
-
alex. (@blokealex) reported from Manchester, England@virginmedia Complaint is about billing after cancellation, your staff refusing to process my request to cancel and being told a different thing every time I call back… it’s been awful.
-
Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported from Dukinfield, England@virginmedia any idea when the outage will be sorted? I have work to do today
-
Carol Rowles (@CallyRaven) reported from Westhoughton, England@virginmedia I seem to be the first one to report them, still saying intermittent problems in my area. Can't get to speak to anyone on phone, I rely on the Internet.

Ken Bar Low (@OldPeopleFine) reported@Dearme2_ You think when you hit rock bottom things can only get better but then your house burns down and virgin media take you to court for non payment of your wifi
-
Wolf Matt (@WolfMatt1987) reportedAfter trying to buy the mosesvhrgovic pvp @virginmedia. ive been told from 3 of your support that the boxing is cancelled tonight due to tge fighters being sick. When questioned about this they said this is the info they were given Wtf is going on
-
Marina Robb (@MarinaRobb) reported@MelJanie @virginmedia Tellingly, the engineer who eventually came out (I'd already cancelled the service) said they still had to fit the back up line as they'd been fined £28 million by the regulator. Appalling customer service though.
-
Monty Kumbulla (@KumbullaMonty) reported@virginmedia What are the chances of a very-light-use customer that has been with you for THIRTY YEARS getting a deal at the same cost as a brand new customer?
-
Helen Bailey (@helenbaileyuk) reported@virginmedia neither myself nor my husband have received any emails today (we have ntlworld email addresses) and even ones we've sent to ourselves from other accounts haven't come through. Is there an issue with emails?
-
Nick Morris (@nickjmorris_3) reported@virginmedia no tv or broadband all day in WD5 area. Called customer services who told us it would be fixed at 2:30am. That’s not good enough. Please can someone contact us to let us know how to get online sooner?
-
Steve Kelly (@kellyokid) reported@MelJanie @virginmedia I was with Virgin for years but got treated like a piece of crap on their shoe with multiple issues so I’ve left! Customer service is non existent! They just don’t care!
-
Escape to the Garden (@JanetsEscapades) reported@virginmedia I have recently closed by Broadband account. I returned your equipment on 25th August 2026. I have an in-post receipt. However, your email is no reply & there is no contact phone number for customer service? I am now getting further emails about returning this!
-
Declan Carty (@declancarty) reported@IrishTimes Perhaps someone like the excellent Patrick Freyne might investigate why, after all these YEARS, Sky subscribers in the ROI cannot get ITV channels, whilst Virgin Media customers have no probs in doing so. Is it still supposed to be a ‘rights’ issue ????
-
antony coyne (@Ant78uk) reported@virginmedia I'm guessing it's a @virginmedia issue coa it's only that channel when the same program was on sky sports main event it was fine is also fine on the sky sports app
