Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Bolton, England

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

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

    @virginmedia Yes currently showing resolution time of 0230 04/11 this is a really poor service it has been off for the majority of the day

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

  • JoshuaBurns Josh B (@JoshuaBurns) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia on my second week of being a first time customer with you and my connection has been down for nearly 10 hours now. What’s going on?

  • gamepopper Gamepopper (@gamepopper) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Oh, my bad. Apparently the wiring outside my house has a fault, someone did come last Monday to work on it,and someone was supposed to work on it for Thursday, but it keeps being pushed back (order ref 55230469).

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

    @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

  • SurrealPaulT Paul Terry (@SurrealPaulT) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia hi Virgin. We had an outage of broadband and TV services beginning 23rd Sept which lasted for 4 days. At the time we were told we would be compensated for this loss. As it hasn't come off our latest bill, how do we claim?

  • 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

  • Hasbullins Hazbullins (@Hasbullins) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia New call of duty released today and your Internet service is down. Are you taking the full piss out of me here? Wankers

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

    @virginmedia network down again in Heywood appalling lack of service yet again

  • Miniboom2 Rach (legacy fan) (@Miniboom2) reported from Salford, England

    Ah @virginmedia with this up and down service today you are really spoiling us!

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

    @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

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

    @virginmedia 2/2 who can I speak to as it was working fine on Friday until the issues that were nothing to do with me happened, so don’t see why I should now pay for a technician

  • JoshuaBurns 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.

  • 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?

  • agarnett Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

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

    @virginmedia well the woeful service in Heywood continues after “fixing” the fault this morning which resulted in me being unable to work from home the network has dropped again this evening absolutely shocking service

  • Lerounxi Reece Jordan Doonan, RN (@Lerounxi) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm if there’s active engineer trying to rectify the service outage Manchester (M30). Widespread issues reported according to your service outage on website ?

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

    @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  • pstock62 Paul Stockton (@pstock62) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in BL6 5RN, any idea's

  • X49841880 X (@X49841880) reported

    @virginmedia You’re also not allowed to breach a customer’s data and decide that you’re above #GDPR. Your deadlock letter ignores all these facts. Your deadlock letter has absolutely nothing of any substance and whoever wrote it, has definitely not listened to any calls I’ve suggested

  • vikkers14 Mark Vicary (@vikkers14) reported

    @virginmedia Is this just an IOS problem as I’m on a surface pro for work and not getting warnings .

  • X49841880 X (@X49841880) reported

    @virginmedia What good is posting on your forum when all you do is ignore the problem? @virginmedia had the absolute worst complaints resolution ever. Hanging up on the customer does not make the problem go away just because you can’t hear it anymore

  • DavidPriceCoop1 David Price-Cooper (@DavidPriceCoop1) reported

    @virginmedia Happy new year and thanks for another of what has become your standard £3.50 fee price rises in recent years for no better service and an appalling customer one.

  • X49841880 X (@X49841880) reported

    @virginmedia @Twitter Let this company get away with this criminal behaviour. I think they decided one morning that they wanted to pretend to be #gangsters and try to #extort me. It’s not fair of you to treat me like a spam account just for showing what these #criminals are up to

  • Harri_thesakura Harri (@Harri_thesakura) reported

    @virginmedia For the last few days no internet. Fix times come and go. And then get extended. Not great when we are all working from home. Signed up for updates and nothing. I have to keep checking myself. No issues with other service providers in the area. Very stressed, fix it?

  • joeneville_ Joe Neville (@joeneville_) reported

    @_ipengineer @forwardingplane UK v6 figures, according to google stats, have increased steadily since I've been watching them, over 36% now. BT & Sky rollouts are done. Virgin Media & others are a disappointment. Also, older BT homehubs not upgraded to support v6 though lines will (I think).

  • LimitedFragzVR LimitedFragzVR (@LimitedFragzVR) reported

    @danparker87 @virginmedia my internet with virgin has been playing up alot last week or so i was going to ring them today because its pissing me off tbh i pay monthly dont miss payments and still having issues i restarted my internet

  • thaildnxD Tyy (@thaildnxD) reported

    @virginmedia fix your internet ffs its been down for 3 days cutting out

  • chrisnparsons Chris Parsons (@chrisnparsons) reported

    @virginmedia There were queues hours long on the night with your call centres and I complained via Twitter to Virgin Media on the night. My Saturday night was already going badly due to your bad service, strangely I didn't also want to spend it waiting on the phone to a call centre.
