Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Wrightington, England

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

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Could the problems in the area have caused damage to the equipment? As it was working fine before. Do I get compensation for all this time as the earliest appointment is Friday 14th?

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia Nobody can help me, they just keep asking for patience. They’ve had since august to fix it. It’s unacceptable.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 3 x engineer visits, each time telling me there’s a blockage. Why does nobody fix it? I can’t even get through to cancel my services and get a refund for the direct debits I’ve paid when I’ve had zero service.

  • SmithysMaud 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.

  • pstock62 Paul Stockton (@pstock62) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia Internet down in BL6 5RN, any idea's

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    Day 42 of no service from @virginmedia. Engineer meant to be coming again today, think I’ve more chance of a unicorn showing up to be fair. 🦄

  • agarnett Adam (@agarnett) reported from Wigan, England

    @virginmedia Is there any way to tell if there are signal issues in your area? This says i should get 4g indoors and outdoors, i dont though i can barely access mobile internet from my house. Last 3 months have been awful

  • tuite_liz 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

  • 92Tevs Thomas Evans (@92Tevs) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia do you want the prize for the shittiest broadband ever or would you like to fix my internet service?

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia my internet has been down since Friday afternoon. I was told it would be fixed in 24 hours, the time has since changed and is currently at 8pm this evening. I work from home so need my internet back up and running before Monday morning. This is disgraceful

  • Robertlfc_ Rob (@Robertlfc_) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia is honestly the worst company for WiFi

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia Can you check that I will be receiving a credit on my next bill as it has been down since Friday afternoon and I don’t think it will be fixed by 12pm today, I think that time will get changed again.

  • SmithysMaud 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.

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting

  • BooCavapoo BooCavapoo 🐶 (@BooCavapoo) reported from Penwortham, England

    @virginmedia No, that's not possible as the yoga device does not have wired port. The WiFi just needs sorting out. Its been terrible for weeks @virginmedia

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia I first informed Virgin Media that my internet was down via online chat on Friday afternoon. Will this have automatically been the time when my loss of service was registered as at the time the advisor said it would be fixed in 24 hours?

  • tuite_liz Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England

    @virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke

  • SmithysMaud Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia 38 days after the repull should’ve been done? You think that’s good customer service?

  • NatashaVic Capitã Nat (@NatashaVic) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Can I speak to a human, please? It’s impossible to speak to anyone here. I paid for my bill via bank transfer more than a week ago and it hasn’t been registered. Phone service is not recognising my password and I can’t find a live chat.

  • BillEvenson ß¡|| Evenson (@BillEvenson) reported

    @mrtonylee @virginmedia Put in your own WiFi router. Although, then when it goes down it's your fault

  • ConorJShields Conor #Shielding (@ConorJShields) reported

    @virginmedia Just had half hour with “retentions dept”. Couldn’t find email that I sent 2 weeks ago during 14 day cooling off period. Said the “website was down”. Couldn’t directly email customers any more. Couldn’t say why no sim sent, yet now being charged by O2. Told me to try web form (1

  • orangens70 orangens (@orangens70) reported

    @virginmedia Thats fine but if somebody comes on and tells me Virgin are soo much better than Sky i will cancel the contract straight away, you may be quicker but your wifi and customer service is dreadful

  • JDasivla jean-luc dasivla (@JDasivla) reported

    @virginmedia Shame that you don’t install in areas with no issue after issuing a contract and after area manager says can’t see no reason to install! Very poor that you don’t want new business!

  • andrew_will77 Andrew (@andrew_will77) reported

    @tasty_mia He'd never heard of Virgin media broadband had he

  • ConorJShields Conor #Shielding (@ConorJShields) reported

    @virginmedia Through you as part of new contract. That’s not the issue. It’s the hours wasted trying to talk to someone, or writing a complaint, that never arrives. Or trying to cancel a contract within 14 days because of overcharging.

  • cjames2606 Corey James (@cjames2606) reported

    @virginmedia I work from home so I’m unable to get someone out to visit. Besides, if there is no issues with my hub what’s the point in someone coming out?

  • pearcematt Matt Pearce (@pearcematt) reported

    @virginmedia need to speak to someone via email or live chat. reset password is not working for mobile account and message is not arriving via mobile as i have no servic e (i am in singapore).

  • ConorJShields Conor #Shielding (@ConorJShields) reported

    @virginmedia Why would I do that when no guarantee that it would reach so-called “customer relations”. Then said she’d disconnect service! Utterly ridiculous. Been with Virgin 15 yrs+. Deeply regret renewing contract last month. Shockingly poor customer relations.

  • emmalporter Emma 📸 (@emmalporter) reported

    Hi @virginmedia - is there an issue with emails, not received any for two weeks!
