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

  • LovecloughKev Kevin Kitten (@LovecloughKev) reported from Rawtenstall, England

    @virginmedia Why is your WhatsApp chat so rubbish for the 4th time i have been kicked off. Terrible service

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Considering my router is a 1gbps it shouldn't be an issue. However even with wired it'll vary between 15mbps and 110mbps. However our average over a month is 53.6mbps, which is less than half the speed we pay for 😳.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia I have your smart hub 3, or as I like to call it the dumb dumb 3000. (It's struggles to broadcast a decent connection around a 2 bed flat, so it's been banished to modem mode. (Honestly, it's the worst router ive ever dealt with) 😳

  • wightpie Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia If does now. 12:00. That's 17 hours without service.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia @JTCHANGINGBIZ Whilst they provide a marginally better speeds than competitors their customer service is just non existent, until you say you're leaving..

  • wightpie Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England

    @virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

  • Baynesi83 bay (@Baynesi83) reported from Mellor, England

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Here she is again that glam Nan spouting bollocks that is instantly shot down by ordinary people who seem to actually know facts. She really needs to shut up or just read factual information instead of coming across as an incompetent muppet.

  • anthony_murphy1 Anthony Murphy (@anthony_murphy1) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia LS, I have and do regularly when ever it seems slow. It varies from 12mbps download to a maximum of 110mbps. However the monthly average is under 60mbps. Which falls well short of my guaranteed speed.

  • BAC64 BAC (@BAC64) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia sucks ol16 again. what is it I'm paying for. Its impossible to work and impossible to watch netflix

  • DougHall18 Doug Hall (@DougHall18) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia The worst possible service from your disgraceful company TV and broadband down 5 times over Christmas. No explanation, no apologies. Sod the fact that I can't wfh or watch prime time TV. Had enough, I'm leaving.

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0) (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Yet again an intermittent service in Area 20 BL1 2 this has now gone beyond a joke, paying for a service and not getting it

  • PIL0TPEDR0 Pete Best (Pil0t Pedr0) (@PIL0TPEDR0) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Still having problems there is a fault in the area, supposed to be fixed by 16:25 today, over 24 hours without Internet is a joke

  • salfordbeerfest Independent Salford Beer Festival 💙 (@salfordbeerfest) reported from Bolton, England

    @virginmedia Now showing estimated "fix" time of 16:00. 21 hours without "service". This. Is. Not. Funny.

  • GeoffEvansTutor Geoffrey Evans (@GeoffEvansTutor) reported from Bury, England

    Broadband DOWN two days last week then on for a day then OFF Today @virginmedia working from home on Monday in BL9- not good enough for what we pay!!!! #nothappy

  • els_photographs Emma L Strawbridge 📷🍓🎮🏳️‍🌈 (@els_photographs) reported from Bury, England

    @virginmedia the connection issues better be sorted by tomorrow morning, some of us need to work

  • CliveCrossley83 Clive Crossley (@CliveCrossley83) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia terrible service!! have been waiting for a response to our request to cancel services since yesterday lunchtime and unable to get through on the phone after waiting over 45 mins Internet constantly going off!!! ridiculous

  • laurenpoche Lauren🥃🎓📖 (@laurenpoche) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia no TV or internet all day. Even my phone internet been playing up, hardly had that as I'm on 02, which you are partnered with. 10am tomorrow it says to be fixed now, no other updates on the issue or help. Very poor.

  • LawAspi TheAspiLawStudent (@LawAspi) reported from Chorley, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, I've done all that (I'm a techy) it's why it's in modem mode and replaced with a capable router. The issue isnt the equipment it's the connection. Without the hub3 I can run upto 900Mbps download and 240mbps upload.

  • BCGolf2 BCGolf EDINBURGH (@BCGolf2) reported

    @virginmedia I am family of the account holder and as I did not have the password the call consultant would not help and again it was noted they still have no dementia flag on their account.

  • dragon15a Avril (@dragon15a) reported

    @virginmedia Why no letter? The email doesn’t explain the increase or break it down THAT’S WHY I’M ASKING!!

  • indanews11 Indanews (@indanews11) reported

    @virginmedia over 20 years and will be looking at cancelling that service too. Once I have cancelled all my accounts affiliated with Virgin Media, my next step will be to file a complaint with the financial ombudsman and seek compensation……

  • GM_Jordan GM Jordan (@GM_Jordan) reported

    After over 2wks of going round & round in circles with @virginmedia can anyone recommended a broadband provider that has good speeds & good customer service. Being #deaf I don't need a landline, but stable broadband is a must.

  • dragon15a Avril (@dragon15a) reported

    @virginmedia It doesn’t matter to what time you’re open, I never get to speak with someone!!

  • lou_hewett Peg Leg Lou (@lou_hewett) reported

    @virginmedia They didn’t suggest anything. I have tried all the tests through the Virgin Media app and have moved my router as recommended. It is mostly WiFi but sometimes impacts wired connections. There are no local issues.

  • PatsyORourke Pat O'Rourke (@PatsyORourke) reported

    @virginmedia over a week now despite contacting customer services: App not accessible CS2400 Sorry, BBC Launcher isn’t launching at the moment. Please try again later. If this issue continues, call 150 from your virgin media phone, What’s happening?

  • indanews11 Indanews (@indanews11) reported

    @virginmedia Your customer service personnel have threatened me with £250 disconnection fee. What about the £thousands I have paid over the 15+ years. It’s time a claimed some of that back and take my customer elsewhere. Vile customer service. Total vile.

  • Bo552023 Farooq (@Bo552023) reported

    @GrumpyBangali @virginmedia Bro, the issue has been going on since November. I keep calling them; they keep telling me someone will call back and they never do. I have nothing left to do than cancel my DD or switch suppliers.

  • N31L7575 NeilD (@N31L7575) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry but in a sector with much competition and when customers are being squeezed for every penny, I cannot see value in this. Think you may have lost a customer maybe 2 depending on what my elderly mothers account offers up. 1/2
