Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Wrightington and nearby locations:
-
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
-
Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, EnglandSince I moved, the @virginmedia connection has been terrible. I’ve had an engineer out, had a booster put on, been told on numerous occasions to reboot the hub. This shouldn’t be needed. Their website is horrendous to use and largely involves linking to help guides 1/?
-
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?
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@virginmedia Thanks. Very frustrating and time consuming. Spent whole afternoon trying to sort it. Twitter not really the best way to resolve issues especially with an 82 year old.
-
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.
-
sarah (@ms_sasmassey) reported from Preston, EnglandHi @virginmedia I've been having TV issues for a few days today is really bad missing channels - error code W02, and intermittent pictures on others
-
Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, England@virginmedia It’s an ongoing issue and an engineer is due out on Thursday but today the internet decided it didn’t want to work on my laptop
-
🥔 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
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia All the while taking my direct debit payments for a service I am not getting
-
LeChonk (@J_w_D94) reported from Horwich, England@virginmedia Hi, I'm tweeting from the device I'm having connectivity and signal issues with, I've looked on the website and it's not stating if you're having network issues or not.

-
Anthony Murphy (@anthony_murphy1) reported from Bolton, England@virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.
-
Maureen StewartJones (@supergran22) reported from Eccleston, England@VirginMedia Received message. Now not accepting my email address. I have one only. My problem is with the remote control which is activated by pressing 2 buttons when they light up. Have had nothing but trouble with one remote for one TV. Your communication us not helpful.
-
Lindz Devine (@LindzDDub) reported from Wigan, England@virginmedia I have to say your Internet connection is ridiculous... for months on end, it's been shocking. I'm sick and tired of resetting my hub, I shouldn't be having this issue. Never had so much issue for the years I've had you and now, the past 6 months, I'm paying monies…
-
patricia foy (@PattipooFoy) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia No TV from 23rd December till 29th! Got a new box fitted, okay for about a week then started playing up again! Spent 3 hours on the phone Thursday night trying to sort to no avail...need an engineer to come out again...but no idea how to arrange!! Terrible service 😑

David Lewis (@DG_Lewis) reported@virginmedia - resorting to contacting you here as other channels have failed to help me get a connection to your services even though neighbours have it. Please reply in direct message - thank you
-
Andy Nicholls 🫧⚒️✝️ (@andy_nicks60) reported@virginmedia Haha what a crap company trying to palm stuff off to customers that they don’t want as opposed to accommodating them, good riddance hello Sky

Gary Jackson 🇺🇦 🍻🎙📻 (@Gary_P_Jackson) reported@JFab208 @virginmedia 28 August according to service status
-
Evelyn Taylor-Williams (@EvTayWill20) reportedDear @virginmedia WHY has my tv package and WiFi gone down? Can't even get BASIC channels #VirginMedia
-
johnhughes (@JFab208) reported@virginmedia @CliveR39 In the mean time you could go and watch the matcb in person despite the fact we’ve paid for a tv service you’re not providing
-
Olive (@nongnangning1) reported@IainSankey @virginmedia I never pay more than £23 for my Virgin internet. Whenever my "special offer" runs out and they want to increase my bill, I just tell them i'll leave then and they relent...
-
Captain_red_waffle (@Cptredwaffle) reported@virginmedia 3rd street-wide outage this year in LS6 tonight. Surveyors have confirmed my property is infra-locked with zero Openreach/Altnet access. Virgin holds a total monopoly here, yet the local street infrastructure is failing. Shambolic really, I need this escalating.
-
Mo (@Notts52) reported@virginmedia DM about what? From my post you have my details, the situation that repeats and repeats and repeats. None of this happened until VM decided that you would make changes for better security by having the VMO2 p'word. Is this problem just us or are others affected? #virginmedia #O2
-
Swindon! (@swindon124759) reported@virginmedia when is the issue with sky sports plus due to be fixed? It’s been going on for ages now and I would like to know a fix date please. Thanks.
-
Ryan (@SarkySodRyan) reported@virginmedia you've sent me messages saying you'll charge me for not sending back my old box.... Despite me telling you the new one doesn't work. This is what it displays. Tried calling your customer service number and - as always - I can't get through Any idea what to do? R
