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

  • MattyHankinson Matt Hankinson (@MattyHankinson) reported from St Helens, England

    @cathd100 @virginmedia I’m having the same issue! Annoying!!!!!

  • mrmrjarrold Matthew Jarrold (@mrmrjarrold) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia The main thing here is that not one person who I have come into contact with in your organisation wants to take ownership of the problem and try and resolve it which is the essence of customer service. It’s a massive fail.

  • Clare___bear Clare Bagan (@Clare___bear) reported from Kirkby, England

    @virginmedia just spoke to a lovely guy on the phone. However, I don’t understand how you can justify charging £40 + for a deal that is £32 online for a new customer. I’ve been with you 20 + years, nothing needs doing to the account. It’s already set up. No point being loyal?

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

    @virginmedia please provide a direct contact for complaints. Sick of the poor service and mistakes that I have had every month since joining you

  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Broadband and phone lines down in the L4 area yet again!!! I wish to cancel my contract early as you are failing to keep to your side of the agreement and provide a reliable service!!!! Piss poor

  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Broadband down completely. Need to work from home, what's going on.

  • gilliblogs Gill Lysons (@gilliblogs) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @yicker @virginmedia Had the same thing when my Gran was poorly, trying to explain to HMRC why they couldn’t visit her for an assessment - eventually I had to say “look, she’s dying” Bloody awful . Hope you’re ok xxx

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

    @virginmedia How many more times, the landline is NOT working (no dial tone).

  • 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.

  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @KindredUK @virginmedia The entire city it down it seems.

  • KStaff1878 KStaff (@KStaff1878) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginhelp @lisa_sandland @virginmedia It's not Lisa's fault, it's YOURS!!! The whole of a city is down

  • john_taxi ☺johnshere (@john_taxi) reported from Leigh, England

    @virginmedia We spend over £150 per month...We need help with our Virgin mobile account...The guy in India doesn't seem to understand

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

    @virginmedia please can I have a direct contact for complaints. I don’t want a generic email, I want someone higher to sort out the same issue I am having every month 😤😡🤬

  • Joanneincrosby Joanne Johnson (@Joanneincrosby) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia tried to contact Virgin media for days! We had no internet for last Saturday, Sunday , Tuesday in the area . You call and it will not let you contact to anyone as it’s a complex problem in the area. Anyone know a better provider I’ve totally had enough.

  • 1agsgsg John (@1agsgsg) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia live chat, phone lines no one answers all I want to do is cancel my service

  • lucindaduffy12 Lucinda Duffy (@lucindaduffy12) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @virginmedia Thanks Anthony did arrive but very late and well after our 'slot' - he was under the impression customer services would have let us know? Such a shame to have had to complain, as he was so efficient and sorted things for us. Communication is key though!

  • Kiefer1667 Marc Lancaster (@Kiefer1667) reported from St Helens, England

    @virginmedia how can we find out when you are transferring our mobile numbers to the vodafone network instead of ee?

  • BenjiMaccers Benji McLoughlin (@BenjiMaccers) reported from Haydock, England

    @JolyonMaugham @virginmedia @SP_EnergyPeople ongoing complaint since March. They are actually extorting me.

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

    @virginmedia No updated fix time, as it shows all services as green, and can't detect a problem. It asks us to phone you on 151 to do a little more "digging", but the phone line is DOWN. Oh, and the chatbot doesn't deal with landline issues apparently. Now what???

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

    @virginmedia This takes me through to a help and support page - what do I do next?

  • gwendy_vg Gwendy (@gwendy_vg) reported

    @virginmedia Disgusted by your service I switched to virgin media with the promise my friend who recommended me and me we will both will get £50 (for the recommend a friend scheme). This should has happened in July, but now December and we haven’t received it.

  • Lewishamdreamer Jason is on Mastodon 🏳️‍🌈🪷 (@Lewishamdreamer) reported

    @virginmedia Hi SL you shouldn’t be asking for full post codes publicly. I can’t fathom why you would expect that when every single service provider I’ve ever had doesn’t.

  • RobynMandie R M A (@RobynMandie) reported

    The most disgusting service from @virginmedia 🤮 I signed up to their Broadband Fibre on 8th Nov and have never had WIFI service! No engineer until 7th Jan!! Back to @SkyMediaUK I go 😡

  • naomi_de_peeved Naomi de Peeved (@naomi_de_peeved) reported

    @virginmedia @ODEONCinemas @virginmedia I cancelled my contract with you and you keep billing me, threatening me with bailiffs. Your customer services say I will continue to be billed until they take 30 DAYS to check the call records. How is this conscionable?!

  • SR_ARUN_ SR (@SR_ARUN_) reported

    @virginmedia The hub is cold Not even a bit hot. 4 days back it started to red light Only few times I receive internet service too. That too interepted service. If it bursts of catches fire 🔥 you have nothing to loose

  • GillCoates5 Gill Coates (@GillCoates5) reported

    @virginmedia Want to know how it’s gone? My landline phone cut out half way through the call…

  • UnwantedLife_Me Unwanted Life (@UnwantedLife_Me) reported

    @virginmedia They then doubled down on lying and said they get it sorted within 48 hours, but you guessed it, that was a lie

  • andyfilby andy filby (@andyfilby) reported

    @virginmedia And would like to use you guys and this is the problem, the fraudulent accounts are still within the virgin matrix and have been told that someone ftom virgin needs to call me to verify its me wanting the phone with u, but no one calls me

  • lucy_clark70 Lucy Clark (@lucy_clark70) reported

    @virginmedia as the service update isn't working on your website, I can't check if there's an outage in my area (E17, London). Certainly seems that way as no Internet...
