Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Wrightington and nearby locations:
-
Tom Rushton (@tomrushton88) reported from Haydock, England@virginmedia Don't use this company its disgusting and disappointing the way they treat customers. Been trying to sort my contract out for 3 months now while they rob my money, create contracts that I've not agreed to and cancel complaints that I've raised.
-
owen southworth (@obpls1995) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia can you explain why the moment I told your staff over the phone that I was disabled they decided to speak to me as if I was an idiot and then tell me they can't help me because I can't spell out my password despite telling them 5 times what the password was.
-
Paul Regent (@PaulRegent1) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia no internet available in Bolton - must be an outage as, although coverage is very poor, it isn’t usually this poor!!
-
BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England@virginmedia please sort out the issues with the WiFi, Internet, broadband or whatever the term us these days. It is constantly slow or not working. Having to use mobile data is not an effective substitute for the service I am paying for.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Yes, this has been going on now for months. Was just on to your team to cancel, they hung up on me. I’ve never known a more woeful service. They are quick enough to take payment every month for a service I’m not getting.
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia my interest been down for a whole week. Call centre staff don't know what to say. An engineer has been on site every single day apparently. Can someone fix my internet. I pay £52 a month this is beyond a joke. I've used all my 4g& bought a ****** dongle just to WFH
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia We have. Multiple times. Your agents don't know how to help. Spoke to 3 different people. I'm getting contant update emails. I don't need to check the service. I know its down. This is beyond ridiculous. I work from home, I can't do my job because of your terrible service.

GreenWasBlue (@GreenwasBlue) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia I've tried the online help to no avail.Just going round in circles. How do I get to book a visit by a human being?? 😡
-
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
-
Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia I also play Destiny 2. I thought it may have been their servers but my boyfriend doesn't have the issue.
-
Bert Nash (@BertNashCha) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV any help/advice on moving house. Want to stay with Virgin but can't speak to anyone and the home move team have said they've cancelled the policy? 3 days trying to speak to someone.
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia Yeah.. apparently its down in WN1 but nobody is telling me what's wrong or how long it will take. I need Internet to work.
-
Keith Bolton (@KeithJBolton) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia Done all that and booked an engineer for Friday but just had a text saying my engineer is on hold while investigate a network problem affecting services
-
Ian Hawksey (@ShanklyBob77) reported from Aintree Village, EnglandAbsolute nightmare trying to watch @SkySportsF1 on my phone because of how poor @virginmedia are especially since merging with @o2, used to just put email and password in, now going around in circles with same message asking me to verify email link and switch, very poor practice.
-
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
-
strange little Flo (@FloButcher84) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia bb3 area: internet has been down since yesterday morning & update it's not going to be fixed till tomorrow. I have a online business to run & kids need to do their homework online, can't stream any tv either. Can I ask what the issue is & why its taking so long?
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia are an absolute joke. Was told to call back at half 6 and guess what? They’re shut! And again, no engineer visit. Getting cancelled 1st thing in the morning. Over a month of total loss of service, piss take. #avoid
-
Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia I never have any issues when it comes to my laptop, though. Just my PS5
-
🥔 A bean has no name 🥔 (@ylilxanoi) reported from Wigan, England@Virgin #virginmediadown Virgin media is an absolute bag of ****, pass it on
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia They’ve been today apparently to do the repull and nothing has changed. Still no service. I won’t be paying this month as I’m not paying for nothing.
Virgin Media Issues Reports

-
Malcolm Sillick (@Malcolm_Sillick) reported@LeilaniDowding @EE Lellani, it's not just EE, it's everyone. Even those on cable (Virgin Media) still have to have the phone plugged into the router. Seems like a good idea, until you get a power cut (which can be supported by a back-up battery, which is NOT given as standard) If the internet goes down, then so does your phone. Great if you have a mobile, but if you live in an area with a poor mobile signal, so reply on 'Wi-Fi calling' in the house, then when the internet goes down, you also have no mobile service. It's called progress!!
-
SK (@s4m1rk23) reported@james_bull8 DM me my brother works for Virgin media - he’ll put your whole package down guaranteed (internet + TV Package). Your getting scammed 😭😭
-
Tom J Jarvis (@TomJJarvis) reported@virginmedia I was sold Gig2 2Gbps symmetric in June. The upload was never delivered at the contracted speed. After three separate calls got nowhere, your Faults team corrected it, then applied a £6/month surcharge for the speed I had already bought. 1/
-
Declan Carty (@declancarty) reported@IrishTimes Perhaps someone like the excellent Patrick Freyne might investigate why, after all these YEARS, Sky subscribers in the ROI cannot get ITV channels, whilst Virgin Media customers have no probs in doing so. Is it still supposed to be a ‘rights’ issue ????
-
Paul Hulse (@paulpresenteruk) reportedDear @virginmedia I upgraded my package last night to add TV yet I wish to cancel this change due to the price for existing customers which is nearly double to what a new customer would get… I have tried to contact through various methods to cancel.
-
mmhmm (@xhatne) reported@Johnty14 @virginmedia Easy solution here, someone should invent a method to get the leaflet through the door, so it ends up in the house, but passers by can't see it so it isn't obvious that nobody is home.
-
Stephen Maddock (@stephenm68) reportedDay 35 of absolutely no services from @virginmedia and no useful information about when/if the outage in our area will ever get fixed. Let’s hope that @guardian Consumer Champions will look into this - I’ve just written to them. @Ofcom
-
Martin Whelan (@mairtinofaolain) reported@PaulOBrienKil @VirginMediaNews @VirginMediaIE Currently swapping to Digiweb for broadband. Customer service seems to be their thing. A sales rep from Eir annoyed me with his pushiness, and Virgin Media ain't that great a price anymore
-
Dermot Carmody (@DermotCarmody) reported@virginmedia hi. Your phone service and chat service are both failing after I input my account number.

Dr Peter Dilworth 💙 #Woke #GTTO 😷 Blue Tick👀 (@PeterDilworth1) reported@virginmedia please help these people out. You are now aware of the situation and are not providing the service you are being paid for.
