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

  • hall291 Pauline Hall (@hall291) reported from Halton, England

    @virginmedia how am I supposed to run an online tutoring business from home when your system goes down twice in a day ? #payingmorebutgettingless

  • JemimaCamhs Jemima (@JemimaCamhs) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia Hi, will this continued investment mean finally getting signal in my area? It’s a central area and the signal is awful. Thanks

  • TimmyJ1972 Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia To be honest, the issue is an intermittent fault. My wife works from home and the broadband just drops out numerous times a day. Then comes back on. It’s only worthwhile doing a remote test if it’s when it drops out. Otherwise all will look fine

  • TimmyJ1972 Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia I’d love to hear from how I’m supposed to report an issue with my broadband. You can’t do it via live chat and seemingly not via the phone either as you’re “experiencing difficulties”

  • J0er_82 Jo3r (@J0er_82) reported from Garston, England

    @virginmedia whys your Internet ****?? Never works when I want it to

  • DoctorRood DRood 🏳️‍🌈🎗 (@DoctorRood) reported from Chester, England

    @virginmedia I never expected any engineer, because I'm aware it's an outage that affects a lot of people. But your CS responses could be a lot better.

  • DoctorRood DRood 🏳️‍🌈🎗 (@DoctorRood) reported from Chester, England

    @virginmedia What does Virgin do for disabled people, when their internet goes down?

  • Simonrob1984 Simon Roberts (@Simonrob1984) reported from Saughall, England

    @virginmedia why is the service down in Chester area? #virginmediadown

  • bikbee ikkivllattun (@bikbee) reported from Chester, England

    No Wi-Fi internet in my area @virginmedia man down apparently 🙄@O2 signal **** … not sure what they’re excuse is 🤔😳….So I’m roaming round with my phone in the air hoping to get lucky 🍀 😳😩

  • Carpo_vp Carpo (@Carpo_vp) reported from Chester, England

    Ah another day of piss poor service from @virginmedia 0 Internet connection since 6am.... Thanks Branson 😒

  • TimmyJ1972 Tim Jackson (@TimmyJ1972) reported from Garston, England

    @Sarahlw_95 @virginmedia Sarah I wouldn’t bother with WhatsApp, I’ve been speaking to various people for over a month on there trying to sort my incorrect bill. They just tell you it’s resolved when it isn’t. Scandalous service.

  • perry_shoemark_ Perry (@perry_shoemark_) reported from Abenbury, Wales

    @virginmedia Have already cancelled my account after going round in circles for months. My first complaint was closed without anyone looking into it. Raised another one which I still haven’t been contacted about. Crazy

  • perry_shoemark_ Perry (@perry_shoemark_) reported from Abenbury, Wales

    For the sake of your sanity.. avoid @virginmedia like the plague. The worst customer service on the planet. Two months and still no broadband install. Jokers

  • MissDonnaCooke Cookie (@MissDonnaCooke) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia @its_coco_do Well I've clearly been forgotten conveniently after calling telling an agent I want to cancel my order and being cut off. Promised a call back. Nothing. Every time I call I get dropped. Ridiculous

  • MissDonnaCooke Cookie (@MissDonnaCooke) reported from Runcorn, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia sorry really trying to be chill but this is horrendous customer service. Cut off after 40 mins, call back which I answer immediately and cut off again. No further attempt from your team to contact me. I've told them i want to cancel my order can you please confirm?

  • SATempest Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Heswall, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your reply. I appreciate that but I’ve already raised the issue and was told I would be called back today, it’s now almost 5pm and I’ve not heard anything. I appreciate you might be busy but your customer service is shocking, as always…

  • SATempest Sam Tempest (@SATempest) reported from Heswall, England

    @virginmedia is it possible to DM someone to cancel a contract? I’ve been on hold for 45 minutes, finally got through to someone who said it’s not within their remit, transferred me to another department and now the line is silent and I’ve been waiting almost an hour!???

  • tomjoneschester Tom Jones (@tomjoneschester) reported from Saltney, Wales

    @NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 You really do thrive on misleading the British public, don't you? What an awful Cabinet we have governing us...

  • lucylou582 Lucy (@lucylou582) reported from Chester, England

    @virginmedia He’s reported it, and told his manager. Why on earth would you not send someone to fix it

  • lucylou582 Lucy (@lucylou582) reported from Chester, England

    @virginmedia so you booked an engineer to come and fix the cable, yet the engineer has just arrived and can only look at the job! What an absolute ridiculous way of working. I told you on the phone that wire had been broke, why send someone who can’t complete the job!

  • moodykels Kelsey✨ (@moodykels) reported

    @virginmedia Hi my Virgin Media Broadband has been down all day and all I get is check back in 24h on the website?! Not any information ?

  • morse64 ian Morson (@morse64) reported

    @virginmedia what an absolute joke... cant access online due to this new Virgin media / O2 login. I do not have access to the email account and rang customer services to change it. Still no joy

  • rockorstone rockorstone (@rockorstone) reported

    Is anyone else having problems with virgin media this year, so poor and it has gone down again estimated fix 6 aug!!!! #virginmedia

  • scaramanga3ball Real Reptilian💙 (@scaramanga3ball) reported

    @virginmedia What's happening virgin media? Can't gain access to my account because you've decided to make me link it to an O2 id account, I'm not at O2 customer. What is the point of offering a service which clearly doesn't work.

  • Sherl06303 David Holmes (@Sherl06303) reported

    @virginmedia I don’t think I have the time and dedication needed to be a Virgin Media customer any more. Sky beckons.

  • womaninblue1050 Marilyn (@womaninblue1050) reported

    @AlisonLMercer @O2 @virginmedia Yes there are loads affected. There’s a Facebook group specifically for problems with Virgin and this problem is highlighted significantly.

  • womaninblue1050 Marilyn (@womaninblue1050) reported

    @virginmedia @chaitu99 Unbelievable that it’s taking so long. The trouble shooting step in your link is saying to register for a Virgin Media account but we already have an account.

  • mjaanensen mjaanensen (@mjaanensen) reported

    @virginmedia please can someone contact me. I no longer have access to the e-mail address associated with my account, therefore cannot login to my virgin media and cannot change the e-mail address associated. Help! Also your internet is awful at the moment but can't run any tests

  • Christo24382100 Christopher Aveyard (@Christo24382100) reported

    @virginmedia Believe it or not, still no change. It says that the email linked to my account is [object OBJECT] so I can’t link it to my virgin media 02. I’ve told god knows how many advisors this and no one is helping. I’m getting tempted to cancel and go back to sky

  • Christo24382100 Christopher Aveyard (@Christo24382100) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been with Virgin Media for two weeks and haven’t been able to log into my account, I’ve spoken to so many advisors who tell me to wait anywhere between 24-72 hours and try again. Terrible costumer service so far, no one seems to have a clue what they’re doing.
