Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Colne, England

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

  • ianlumsden Ian Lumsden (@ianlumsden) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get through to customer service for the past two days, the call is usually immediately rejected or I am told the call waiting time is an hour. I have had enough and as soon as I get through I am cancelling my account. 😡

  • PamThornes Pam Thornes (@PamThornes) reported from Greetland, England

    @virginmedia She is in the process of cancelling but made her decision. The boxes were removed by your engineer although customer services said they were not, but they were. And Virgin about 18months ago charges her £31 ish twice then upped it to £45, £46..

  • matt_stanny Matthew Stansfield (@matt_stanny) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia @virginhelp any chance you can sort the internet issues in BB11, it’s a nightmare at the moment!

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia because you are providing a service that doesn't work, i presume i can leave without a fee

  • bazza_bee78 🚩Bazza B 🏴 (@bazza_bee78) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Waiting on an engineer now, none available until Saturday pm. That will be over 3 days without any service.

  • jodavidson65 Jo D #KaftrioNow (@jodavidson65) reported from Nelson, England

    @virginmedia very poor of you

  • Logical1966 Aaron (@Logical1966) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia sorry this was for your service provider @YodelOnline not you

  • matt_stanny Matthew Stansfield (@matt_stanny) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia It says not on there but when I call the support number there is a recorded message saying there is an issue and engineers are working on it.....been same all week.

  • hossfitt Paul Cartwright (@hossfitt) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia hello area 14 is there an issue as had no internet since 2pm I have all the checks etc 5 times I can't book an engineer so normally an issue, I work from home not ideal and no way of watching TiVo either without internet

  • hossfitt Paul Cartwright (@hossfitt) reported from Keighley, England

    @virginmedia I have contacted live chat just now outage apparently estimated fix time 14th June rediculous that can't watch TV or work from home

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia Came back on early hours this morning but it's been awful for a while, same as the rest of my family I'll be leaving without a cancellation fee tomorrow

  • Dazmac1882 Daz Mckavett (@Dazmac1882) reported from Burnley, England

    You've out done yourselves today @virginmedia It's usually poor but your broadband today has been on a completely different level of poor

  • Chunkandchops Chunknchops (@Chunkandchops) reported from Greetland, England

    @virginmedia hopeless service, internet useless...if someone monitors this site can they please explain how we get an engineer to come and sort the problem out

  • mooseandme1 Moose And Me (@mooseandme1) reported from Great Harwood, England

    Cracks me up that the main feature of BT’s internet provision currently being advertised is that it breaks! And you can book a slot to fix it Why not invest your advertising budget in stopping it from breaking? Not to be smug but (touch wood) @virginmedia has never conked out!

  • gsouthy gsouthy_25 🏆 LIVERPOOL FC 👊🏼 (@gsouthy) reported from Great Harwood, England

    @virginmedia How are things?? Footpath left full of mud. Having to clean footwear off or remove before coming into the house! The whole length of the footpath in front of the houses where your workers have been is a disgrace. Not even rain has washed it clean!! Terrible standard of work! 😤

  • scottboyle6 scott boyle (@scottboyle6) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia the worse customer services ever! Passed to 4 different departments for 15 mins only to be cut off.

  • Sam_yates4 Sam Yates (@Sam_yates4) reported from Old Laund Booth, England

    @neilayates @virginmedia I believe they were the "3rd Party" that also caused the Microsoft 365 outage which killed our session yesterday!

  • Hizz67 Richard Hizzard (@Hizz67) reported from Greetland, England

    I now have more than16 hours wasted with @virginmedia trying to contact them to resolve an issue. Beggars belief how bad they are when the fault is on their part. Best I cancel contract as clearly not delivering their part 🤬

  • bazza_bee78 🚩Bazza B 🏴 (@bazza_bee78) reported from Burnley, England

    @virginmedia No mention of any temporary resolutions or any form of compensation for the loss of service

  • nevynxxx nevynxxx (@nevynxxx) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia I understand your call centres are suffering, but 2 hours for text chat support and a phone line that 4 menu levels deep hangs up is not good enough. Massively annoyed and time wasted.

  • KateKtam Kate (@KateKtam) reported

    @virginmedia It won’t run the test because there’s NO WI-FI!!!! I give up, this is awful.

  • patrickseurre patrickseurre@mastodon.social (@patrickseurre) reported

    ISPs seem to enjoy charging a loyalty tax to UK customers by periodically raising prices based on little more than the length of time the service has been paid for. Now on top of that @virginmedia are increasing my price by £7pm. Disgusting.

  • AlexB_Bacon Alex Bullard (@AlexB_Bacon) reported

    Cancelling Virgin Media broadband is like running a call centre gantlet. Incessantly asking needless questions, transferred to multiple people, ID checks each time, eventually they let you cancel... Having to phone to cancel things you can buy in 1 click online should be illegal.

  • MarkIGibson Mark Gibson (@MarkIGibson) reported

    @virginmedia Would this be relevant if the issue is with the connection rather than the router? It's the same router that we had before the move and it never dropped

  • _AshConnolly Ash Connolly 👋 (@_AshConnolly) reported

    @virginmedia your customer service is probably the worst I've experienced. My inet was supposed to be installed on the 02/01, then moved to 28/01. Now installed, it still doesnt work. The cable to the house needs replacing. Ive been told it will take 2 months until it is fixed.

  • _AshConnolly Ash Connolly 👋 (@_AshConnolly) reported

    @virginmedia And will require a new installation, which doesn't make sense since all install has been done. I was also told by my virgin advisor that to speed it up, I should search my area for virgin installers, and then ask them to do me a favour and come fix it. It's pretty ridiculous.

  • andyy Andy Young (@andyy) reported

    finally able to switch away from Virgin Media and it's the same feeling of freedom as the day we first bought a house and knew we'd never have to deal with renting from a landlord ever again

  • KarenCrookshank woolNfluff (@KarenCrookshank) reported

    @virginmedia No. The password doesn’t work. There are still people on the forums whose issues have not been resolved.

  • MarkIGibson Mark Gibson (@MarkIGibson) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, think we've found out what the issue is. The engineer that fitted the connection has left the hatch open and cabling exposed on the pavement - so any movement looks like it drops the connection

  • AngieE11a Angela kavanagh 🇿🇲 (@AngieE11a) reported

    @virginmedia I have tried using that link before and my account cannot be located! With the same customer number and area code I was emailed by yourselves! And YES I have raised several complaints over the last few weeks. To be honest I don’t feel like you are helping me at all!
