Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Manchester, England

  • barrys59
    Barry Slater (@barrys59) reported from Barton upon Irwell, England

    @virginmedia still no service M27. 4th hour! Rubbish!

  • _AdamGardiner
    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.

  • OldhamBradd
    Bradley Smith (@OldhamBradd) reported from Oldham, England

    Not another outage? #virginmediadown #VirginMediaoutage @virginmedia

  • SiManM20
    Simon Manning 🇪🇺 - SiManM20@mstdn.uk (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia are you down again in M20? Hub flashing red again.

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

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

  • roslers_vest
    Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia Submitting a complaint will probably result in an apology at best. Given I pay £1k per annum for an unreliable service it’s time to look for an alternative provider who can offer a more satisfactory customer experience

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

  • Scarlet0Pimp
    Liam 🐀 (@Scarlet0Pimp) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia hello, can you please fix the broadband in the sk11 8aa area once and for all. It was down yesterday afternoon, just gone down today and down last week. Clearly there is some Faulty hardware that needs replacing. How can people work from home with broadband like this

  • MCR_ADM
    Adam🍺 (@MCR_ADM) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia No they’re helping. But it’s VERYYYY slow. But almost there.

  • dantheman8t5
    Daniel McDermott (@dantheman8t5) reported from Dukinfield, England

    @virginmedia any idea when the outage will be sorted? I have work to do today

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia You’re not understanding. I do contact when the issue is happening, your advisor then fixes it, but it then happens again within 24 hours. I need a ‘once and for all’ fix. Not this whack a mole approach you’ve had so far.

  • louaze
    🐝Louise🐝 (@louaze) reported from Manchester, England

    Skysports 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!!

  • roslers_vest
    Scott Moseley (@roslers_vest) reported from Rochdale, England

    @bluecitygirl232 @virginmedia I had the same issue with them in December always down not reliable couldn’t WFH so binned them off went to BT and fingers crossed not had an issue to date

  • Karamonkey1
    Weirdly even older fan (@Karamonkey1) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia And the sum total of welcome texts I received during my 7 night stay in Jamaica was 189. I never moved from the same hotel. I often got 4-8 texts whilst sat at the same restaurant table or in my room. @virginmedia get your act together

  • _AdamGardiner
    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)

  • tuite_liz
    Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

  • blokealex
    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.

  • Kellywalsh758
    Kelly Walsh (@Kellywalsh758) reported from Stockport, England

    @virginmedia Iv asked lots of questions that have gotten me no where. To be hung up on over & over. They gave me a date of 17th December for it to have it installed no reasons as to why nothing explained I just think it’s a joke and the costumer service is dreadful. To have to wait 6 weeks!!

  • _AdamGardiner
    Adam Gardiner 💙 (@_AdamGardiner) reported from Sale, England

    @virginmedia Have you just stopped responding now? Having some system issues?

    @virginmedia inc movies & sport & 1gb broadband all for a lady who has never used either and only sends the odd email . We have just spent another evening waiting another missed call and still no response to an email we sent a couple weeks ago . This is all causing her distress .

  • strikecenter147
    Banshee (@strikecenter147) reported

    @Benleo Ben bring up your hub on virgin media I guarantee you it’s been hacked and you get a warning. This is happening all over London and I can’t get anybody to help me with it. Bring up your own Virgin media hub and you will see what I mean.

  • ErmitoF
    Ermito Fernandes (@ErmitoF) reported

    Frustrating internet outage all day from @virginmedia while neighbors stayed connected! 😡 ​Had to cancel crucial work meetings and risk client deadlines with zero proactive suppor from service provider. ​Anyone else experiencing selective blackout?

  • thedazdanks
    Darren Danks (@thedazdanks) reported

    @virginmedia I’m sure I’m not the only one who doesn’t have their phone next to their hub. What if an elderly customer has phone and hub in separate rooms but need the phone as part of their care and wellbeing. Would your advice still be to just move one of them?

  • StephenOld
    Stephen Old #FBPE (@StephenOld) reported

    @thenorth4theeu @virginmedia Who id you change to? I have had enough of Virgin. My internet works but the landline has not worked for months. It is impossible to get help from them.

  • HippieSmel48310
    🏍️ TThe Smelly Hippie ✌️ (@HippieSmel48310) reported

    @virginmedia @bexholloway Your broadband is ******* garbage, 5th outage this week, absolute trash.

  • QuanTuM_kL
    K (@QuanTuM_kL) reported

    @JJMootts @virginmedia I don't get why everyone moans, been with them for nearly 20 years and might have had 3 issues, it's almost never down, the internet speeds are far beyond what any other provider can do, although the others may have finally caught up, for years it wasn't close.

  • gideon_

    @virginmedia another broadband outage in North Manchester?? At what point are we legally allowed to leave contract due to the amount of issues? Please advise

  • weyland76
    m a t t (@weyland76) reported

    .@virginmedia my TV box will not record anything. Every recording says "recording failed due to a technical issue" but I have no idea what that issue is?

  • TheWayWeWillBe
    The Way We Will Be (@TheWayWeWillBe) reported

    @virginmedia so cross with you again today Not only is the broadband up and down as usual (but tests show fine) but you won’t allow me to log in from my Apple Mac and you won’t allow me to update parental controls Useless
