Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Wrightington, England

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

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia It’s ok I’ve managed to get around my dad’s security question - it was an issue with the lower / upper case. I’ve updated his password and his email is now receiving emails on his phone and iPad - I think we’re ok. Frustrating that the live chat sent him around in circles

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia my dad’s email address has been hacked. VM says he has to re register his email address. He’s spent nearly 3hrs on live chat today trying to fix it. He’s 86 and relies upon his email to order from home. Can you please explain to me the process to correct this issue?

  • thereal_rookie Paul Rooke (@thereal_rookie) reported from Prescot, England

    @virginmedia Already checked, your website says we have issues. Just disappointed that I have missed what sounded like a good @F1 race

  • mrphilliptipton Phillip Tipton (@mrphilliptipton) reported from Haydock, England

    The interminable menus on the Virgin Media customer line lasted 3 minutes and 20 seconds just now, most of it being lectured on how efficient this would make my as yet unanswered call.

  • Miss_Defying Rebecca Harrisson (@Miss_Defying) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia Someone else has called me since and had said she's going to call me back and look into it. But I was just so frustrated with the way he spoke to me. I'm not one for just googling random sites but this was on one of your forums and it's the exact same issue!

  • charl_middo Charlotte (@charl_middo) reported from Liverpool, England

    @ThreeUKSupport hey 3, both me and my husband have 3G or below 90% of the day at the moment (5-6weeks now) and with @virginmedia also being down we can’t do anything, yet the network coverage says it’s fine… are there any issues in the L9 area for 4G?

  • Miss_Defying Rebecca Harrisson (@Miss_Defying) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia He said it '100% wasn't a porting issue' and that he would look into it but that wouldn't be the answer. Another lady called me later on a few times and asked me to call our land line on three separate occasions and she could call back to get the times. But haven't had a call yet

  • LeylandDavid David Gardner (@LeylandDavid) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia My landline phone has been down all afternoon in PR25 1UJ. Have any others complained about this issue, and if you're aware of the issue, do you have an estimated time for repair. Thanks in advance.

  • Miss_Defying Rebecca Harrisson (@Miss_Defying) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia Hi!! Just letting you know my land line issue still isn't fixed. Someone is supposed to be calling me back today. I'm really hoping they do. Just wanted to say thanks to Robert too for being so helpful. Despite this still driving me mad.

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Also I’ve just tried and it won’t accept the answers to the security questions - which are both ok. Can someone contact me to help me out please?

  • Andy_Dunbar Andy Dunbar (@Andy_Dunbar) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Is that minimum 12 months subscription or can I cancel at anytime?

  • gbam86 Graeme Bamber (@gbam86) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia @gbam96 Yes it has been cancelled now, it was the manner it took to get there! Nearly 20 mins of asking to cancel! he had a bad attitude. Very disappointed with the customer service

  • LeylandDavid David Gardner (@LeylandDavid) reported from Leyland, England

    @virginmedia Reported the problem yesterday after your response. Should have been fixed by 10am today apparently, but still nothing.

  • Miss_Defying Rebecca Harrisson (@Miss_Defying) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia hi!! We're having issues calling our landline from Vodafone mobiles. Have googled and it looks like it's a porting issue. But one of your technicians has just called and talked to me like I'm stupid and told me it's not. Can you help???

  • shellc11 michelle cunningham (@shellc11) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia can you please confirm how long my tv will be down WA9 area, its been off for over 36 hours 😳

  • Nathann_B Nathan Booth (@Nathann_B) reported from Liverpool, England

    Try to contact @virginmedia on there faulty mobile service or wifi but call keeps ending without me doing any thing

  • RayWaring Ray Waring (@RayWaring) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No nothing - no reference number. The inconsistency of service between live chat, phone and Twitter is mad. It doesn’t feel like you’re speaking to the same company

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

    @virginmedia Quite frankly sick of having to sort this out every month and spending my own time dealing with your errors

  • Miss_Defying Rebecca Harrisson (@Miss_Defying) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @VodafoneUK I'm not sure... as far as I can tell it's a @virginmedia issue. But you may be able to help. No one on Vodafone can call our virgin landline. It just beeps or says the number and code combination isn't recognised.

  • Miss_Defying Rebecca Harrisson (@Miss_Defying) reported from Ormskirk, England

    @virginmedia But on the online forum it says others have had the same problem and your technical department need to contact Sky and the line needs to be routed to you again as it's a porting issue. I can't see any other examination although I appreciate I'm not a technician.

  • Greyham94 Graham Tracey (@Greyham94) reported

    @virginmedia Are the customer care lines open today as I tried calling? That's why I came on here.

  • Originalclough1 Originalcloughie (@Originalclough1) reported

    @virginmedia I signed up to great offers and never received my 12 bottle Sid wine or money off. Emailed and tried to call but to no response. #liar #con

  • bunners81 Bunners (@bunners81) reported

    @AzureKishan @virginmedia @SkyUK That’s what I did never looked back broadband is quicker and more reliable with sky and I use more flexible apps for my tv ... saving me about £50 a month in the process

  • ras8519 Randa (@ras8519) reported

    @virginmedia Stay away from virgin media. Poor customer service (can't get through to anyone. Yes, covid has caused problems, but every other major service provider has provided a better customer service). Also, broadband connection isn't the most reliable.

  • GregBarnes2 (((Greg Barnes))) (@GregBarnes2) reported

    @virginmedia Your passing the responsibility of your company’s ineptitude onto me rather than communicating effectively with colleagues. I’ve not encountered anyone at VM who doesn’t effectively say “ I can’t help..talk to someone else”

  • SRJ90383018 SRJ (@SRJ90383018) reported

    @virginmedia Most horrible pple work for this ... they hang up in u when asking for help can’t w8 to leave them

  • BeardedOaf Barrington McGnads (@BeardedOaf) reported

    The only thing I hate about living I rural Norfolk, is the lack of Virgin Media. In London, it was the only service I would use and recommend. #VirginMediaSale

  • johnyq2509 john quilter (@johnyq2509) reported

    @virginmedia To put some context to this previously I had 350mb internet off you and consistently had 350 . I’m now paying for 1gb and have never seen it . The highest it has ever been is 650mb

  • Hadiisepic Hadi 🇱🇧🇬🇧 (@Hadiisepic) reported

    @virginmedia No it’s useless. We’ve cancelled our subscription anyway now, so congrats on loosing yet another customer
