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

  • coachdancad Dan Cad (@coachdancad) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I rebooted it yesterday and a number of times previously. I’m now in receipt of a Cat. 6 Ethernet cable which has improved wired speeds - I’d suggest these should come as standard - but wireless speeds are still slow and unreliable.

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia And the problem yet again wasn't solved over the phone. Wouldn't admit who cancelled or why. Did admit could identify 'frequency issues' Company full of ignorant eejits

  • lestervose ann (@lestervose) reported from Haydock, England

    @virginmedia I have no internet connection WA11, checked area status (through mobile data 😏 thankfully can rely on 3 mobile) which reports no issues. Well there is...as per usual. Please help

  • DCBlue11 Dave Carson (@DCBlue11) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia I'm sorry I disagree it's @virginmedia broadband not Samsung broadband! So it is a @virginmedia issue .I don't pay Samsung for my Wi-Fi.

  • JonGre69 Grolshy (@JonGre69) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia ****** Taliban getting WiFi signal in caves in Afghanistan and I can’t get a signal in most rooms in my ****** house

  • DJGlassBack PENALTYPOOL (@DJGlassBack) reported from Liverpool, England

    Why is my wifi not working yet again @virginmedia beyond a joke now

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia TBF, I have been trying to get to the solution for over a week. I have other things to do you know...🤨

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

    @virginmedia It was an account pretending to be yourselves, trying to phish for info. Reported it to Twitter. The account viriginmeida has been suspended. #regards my issue. Your black spot spotter is not great if a black spot is so black that I get no WiFi

  • MsLucyOpenshaw M S L U C Y 💟 (@MsLucyOpenshaw) reported from Bolton, England

    It’s a bloody good job I don’t rely on the internet to make a living because the connection with @virginmedia is shocking and I’d be skint. But I am skint from how much we pay for this shit internet.

  • radio_caroline Trains (@radio_caroline) reported from Haydock, England

    Virgin media broadband fails again telephone and broadband went off around 2pm still no service not two months goes by without it failing think twice before you sign up

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia Sick and tired of this now. Acknowledged there was a problem, sorted it*, asked me to monitor gor a week and if not working they'll then send a man out. *still happening ffs

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia The issue has been constant for 2 weeks. Option 2 at the second press is when calling about an account different to the one I'm calling from.

  • coachdancad Dan Cad (@coachdancad) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia No reported issues. Used the guide before - it’s why I moved the router. Poor signal is because I moved the PS4 5ft across the room. But it’s less than 5m away from the router in a straight line - obscured only by the floor and the tv is sits next to.

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    So. I've now had 3 @virginmedia techies in 2 days tell me they've resolved my issue. That remains to be seen. It in no way excuses the engineer no-show 🤬🤬🤬

  • DCBlue11 Dave Carson (@DCBlue11) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Re: Wi-Fi cutting out, exclamation mark .Samsung blame your hub @virginmedia blame Android 8.0.meanwhile my service gets worse with no solution in sight. #frustrated

  • Knitswithbeer knitswithbeer🐝 (@Knitswithbeer) reported from Euxton, England

    @virginmedia There are a couple of threads I've contributed to. I'll try to post the one I looked at this morning and posted the same comment I tweeted. My point is that it shouldn't be a one at a time fix.

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

    @virginmedia Rebooted, changed channels, sometimes get a bit of 5ghz, but really not high quality signal, stuttering video playback.

  • dbrindle92 David Brindle (@dbrindle92) reported from Liverpool, England

    @AdamWether @virginmedia @O2 For what you pay them you should be able to get signal on the moon

  • Lisa_P117 Lisa Patel (@Lisa_P117) reported from Horwich, England

    @virginmedia epic broadband, crap TiVo ... shocking my box every couple of weeks / less doesn’t work and I have to restart. The package I pay for isn’t value for money and calling up to report issues is painful, 35+ mins I was on for last time!

  • DCBlue11 Dave Carson (@DCBlue11) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Yes it's the same problem

    @virginmedia And no one could have told us that 18 months ago? Please can you tell me how I can make a complaint. This isn’t satisfactory
