Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Blackpool, England

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

  • NowHearThis1 Steven Michael Macdonald (@NowHearThis1) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia Can your company please start putting out adequate information directly to your customers please, instead of assuming we should go looking for answers. Believe it or not people deal with the truth far better than these days would tell us. Why is the network failing?

  • aptyson1960 Alan Tyson (@aptyson1960) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia I did and they couldn’t do anything. I’m very disappointed that not even going just broadband could reduce anywhere near new customers. My car insurance has to match new customer deals. You should do the same.

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia This help page just walks me through what I've already done, it doesn't show me how to reset the pod

  • The_dadblogs The Dadblogs (@The_dadblogs) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia Yeah we're just going to wait yet again for you to "fix" the problem, not holding my breath! And yet you chose to address this and not the rude customer service I received 🤔

  • docherty53 Andy 'life is short' Docherty (@docherty53) reported from South Shore, England

    Morning @virginmedia I know it's not your fault but communication is impossible so I have turned to Twitter for help. Have you any idea when @YodelOnline will get their act together as we have been wasting days off waiting for important packages from you?

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia please can I have a direct contact for complaints. I don’t want a generic email, I want someone higher to sort out the same issue I am having every month 😤😡🤬

  • franners82 frances whitehead (@franners82) reported from Garstang, England

    @virginmedia can you help me verify my account - not receiving any emails…

  • llloydman lisa lloyd (@llloydman) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia Is there a problem ? No virgin media here

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia I’ve contacted after last months bill and the bill before and before….I get told that I won’t be getting chased for the difference but I don’t understand why you just can’t get it right and fix it

  • NowHearThis1 Steven Michael Macdonald (@NowHearThis1) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia Internet back up now. Don't have a problem with either maintenance or an unavoidable fault, I just wish you'd send out an SMS or something to inform customers of why, and for how long. Otherwise you get people just sat waiting and none the wiser.

  • SammyKnowlesX SJK (@SammyKnowlesX) reported from Banks, England

    @virginmedia please provide a direct contact for complaints. Sick of the poor service and mistakes that I have had every month since joining you

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @MeNigeStew I'm with @virginmedia suffering for decent coverage in parts of the house & despite trying a pod (which has yet to work btw) wifi extenders (which fight with the main router) & 2 engineer visits I'm still suffering. Having full TV as well not sure how broadband price breaks down

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia Tried them all over 18 months. Short of moving the router, which imo will shift the issue from one room to another, there's not a lot else open to me according to your representatives. We work from home and my wife uses all her mobile data every month as a wifi hotspot

  • sean_wilson87 Sean Wilson (@sean_wilson87) reported from South Shore, England

    Once again @virginmedia your internet connection drops as soon as we get bad weather. Lost count of the amount of times this has happened, and with the amount of money I pay you nothing happens to stop this happening again. Shocking service. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

  • M4rtinBooker Martin Booker (@M4rtinBooker) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson how bad are your installation teams in Blackpool! They can’t even put a cable in the ground in 6 weeks at my property, think somebody needs to check on your engineers to see what they do all day! #busydoingnothing #virginmedia #broadband 👎🤬

  • NowHearThis1 Steven Michael Macdonald (@NowHearThis1) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia @Mikeper81999705 This is what I'm tweeting about. It's no information that the internet is down, I know my internet is down. Customers for some odd reason, might want to know why??

  • NowHearThis1 Steven Michael Macdonald (@NowHearThis1) reported from South Shore, England

    @Jack173_ @virginmedia The service has been truly awful for a week now Jack, you'll probably find it's nothing to do with your end. This is exactly what I'm talking about. If someone takes your road up, you get a notice. If Virgin fibre goes down or someone just pushes the wrong button, it's all meh

  • The_dadblogs The Dadblogs (@The_dadblogs) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia Clapping back, finally got some *****, now please go fix the Internet!

  • mgsevs sevs66 (@mgsevs) reported from Kirkham, England

    @virginmedia @Piethagoram How about maintaining free roaming charges then seeing as you've hiked the cost of using your service

  • aptyson1960 Alan Tyson (@aptyson1960) reported from South Shore, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed that being a customer for nearly 25 years doesn’t warrant any discount but being a new one did. Bye bye I’m off to @bt_uk

  • Madrilleno1 Madrilleno 1 (@Madrilleno1) reported

    @virginmedia What exactly is this mysterious “problem” which keeps repeating itself?

  • Subsonic_tv Subsonic (@Subsonic_tv) reported

    @Pijinnn_ @virginmedia I had the same issue with VM when my contract came up for renewal. I basically ended up telling them what I was gonna pay or I'd leave. Ended up paying about £42 for 500mbps

  • WeeBeenieBash BeenieBash (@WeeBeenieBash) reported

    @virginmedia My elderly, blind mother has had no landline since Monday. We were told that it was a fault, would be sorted by 11pm. Phoned back on Tuesday to be told she has been disconnected!? Getting nowhere on the phone and she now has no means of contact with anyone. HELP!!!

  • neilorpen neil orpen (@neilorpen) reported

    @LeePartridge16 @virginmedia The solution must be to move to a competitor

  • verochance Veronique Chance (@verochance) reported

    @virginmedia Internet still down in Waterloo. When are you going to fix it?!

  • Davidp1103 Davidp (@Davidp1103) reported from Snodland, England

    @virginmedia @LeePartridge16 A particularly poor explanation. What you really mea n is that you only offer attractive prices to grab new customers but have little regard for customer loyalty. That's why I left @virginmedia too

  • mehmetakduman Mehmet Akduman (@mehmetakduman) reported

    For the 4th time in since Tuesday, my internet is down. How difficult to fix your services @virginmedia?

  • dodefyvie dode (@dodefyvie) reported

    @virginmedia I actually had one of your customer service agents hang up the phone on me yesterday! Appalling service!

  • AuditorsReality AUDITOR OF REALITY (@AuditorsReality) reported

    Thought @virginmedia had gone down again. Rather, it was the cat whilst sitting on my laptop had surreptitiously activated airplane mode... She can also take screenshots.

  • debbie36242381 @debbie (@debbie36242381) reported

    @virginmedia Virgin is the worst Internet provider in the UK. If I don't get my Internet you won't get your direct debit.
