Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Thornaby-on-Tees and nearby locations:

  • Gurudarlington Guru Boutique (@Gurudarlington) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia The number I wanted to retain is at my private address not my work address which is shown on this Twitter account. I doubt the number is still live with BT and I feel let down.

  • Arcamede Adam Cree (@Arcamede) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia are you having any issues in the North East at all? Our Internet has been awful for the past week!

  • stelambert1977 steven lambert (@stelambert1977) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia why is the red button not working tonight for sky sports?

  • Gurudarlington Guru Boutique (@Gurudarlington) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia I’m the home owner Beryl Hankin, and was told the phone number would stay the same when I changed. I queried this with the Virgin engineer who rang Virgin and assured me it was in hand. That was weeks ago but it never happened.

  • werbedoyle gary doyle (@werbedoyle) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia hey hey virgin media wifis down. Your web site says it fixed ????

  • Christo72210007 Chris Christopher (@Christo72210007) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Aaarrrggghhh, red button not working on Sky Sports tonight any idea why?

  • gaznolan Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @beardedian @virginmedia @O2 Set up fee and possibly extra for the service you'll have before the next DD comes out?

  • rachsclarke rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia can you confirm your sky sports red button will be working tonight for the Boro match as there is always problems with it, as if it’s not I’ll purchase the match with a different provider instead. Plenty of notice here for an 19:45 kick off

  • wicks_michael Michael Wicks (@wicks_michael) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia what’s going on with your website unable to access via my O2 or Vodafone mobile network. No problems with any other websites 😡

  • TownsJake JAKE (@TownsJake) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia has the worst customer service by an absolute stretch, been trying to sort my broadband and tv out for about 6 hours

  • NotEnoughTECH Mat⚙ (@NotEnoughTECH) reported from Ingleby Barwick, England

    Hey @virginmedia what's your support email address in the UK? Your website is absolutely useless in that regard

  • citamo Chris #FB #ProEU#Rejoin#BLM#GTTO,NHS 💙 (@citamo) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia @justwearmasks Instead of employing robots in your impossible to contact call centres and ripping of the public for your shareholders, set up a proper system of customer care which is accessible, helpful, considerate and capable of fixing customer problems quickly and competently.

  • Thejollyevfan The Jolly EV Fan (now living up in the North) (@Thejollyevfan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia DM me so I can give contact details. Don’t think it would cause a problem but I’d worry about affecting neighbours services or possible future services should we come back to you.

  • Jim_Gardner_ Jim Gardner 🇪🇺🇺🇦 (@Jim_Gardner_) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @SimonMarksFSN Ironically it's the only streaming service of the latest to launch I considered subscribing to here in the UK because CNN removed itself from Sky and Virgin Media when Warner announced its own streaming platform. I hope it now comes back, although it never left LG's WebOS IPTV.

  • chlowilson__ Chloe (@chlowilson__) reported from Redcar, England

    Virgin media wifi is down again.. surprise, surprise

  • rachsclarke rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia You realise we’ve already missed 35 minutes of this 90 minute match? Are you going to be refunding customers due to your inconsistent service

  • rachsclarke rachel (@rachsclarke) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Thanks, do you have an ETA of when you’re issue will be resolved? Many of us could of purchased this game with a different streaming service if we knew you would be having the same issues with red button as per usual

  • werbedoyle gary doyle (@werbedoyle) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia every month I make the same bloody phone call, you are thee worst company ever !!! Customer service is appalling over charged massively for four months,IS any one out there !!!

  • TownsJake JAKE (@TownsJake) reported from Darlington, England

    @virginmedia No i just been disconnected so this is another 2 hours wasted, i just want to cancel my services now

  • stelambert1977 steven lambert (@stelambert1977) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Finally red button service working on Virgin. Only missed half of the @Boro match!! ;however commentary is from the Blackburn match. #PoorService #virginmedia

  • harr12878071 Jim Harris (@harr12878071) reported

    @dundee8cologne1 @ChrisN1978 @virginmedia It’s also a service and if you charge people for a service, when that service is not available (for any extended time) then you should be reimbursed. Technological or not.

  • DocCotton4 Doc Cotton (@DocCotton4) reported

    @virginmedia @PaulStokes_ Internet is still down in Newcastle, can’t get through on phone or response on here

  • BradTRC BradTRC (@BradTRC) reported

    @jackgregory8976 @virginmedia @KatieXKathryn I’m not even a customer anymore, my uncle is but I cancelled mine 6 months ago for the constant issues, but it is still ridiculous that in the 21st century there are constant issues with Virgin Media.

  • 0r9anic Jam (@0r9anic) reported

    @virginmedia My service is fine. But why not integrate SIM or similar into routers, with 02 or whoever, for backup connectivity. SIM could filter spam too when router is online.

  • KathyMi25429227 Kathy Miller (@KathyMi25429227) reported

    @virginmedia No I'm not wasting my time and if you checked I have reported issues by phobe and via Twitter. I will leave as you know there have been issues and you ought to refund your cudtomers...we pay a lot and you do not provide a service nor act decently

  • hayleyed74 Hayley Edwards (@hayleyed74) reported

    @virginmedia It seems the 'outage' deleted the network settings on the tivo box. Reentered them & it solved the issue. Might be worth mentioning it to other customers so they can fix their issue. I did put a tweet out this morning explaining what I did & might help

  • draculasho Bing bang bong (@draculasho) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia I've been trying all morning to reach you about an issue I'm experiencing with my WiFi and have had no luck. Your customer service skills are absolutely appalling. I had my services turned off but paid my bill 9 hours ago now. What is going on?!

  • DennisReid7 Dennis Reid (@DennisReid7) reported

    @virginmedia @FemninkTattoos Are we going to be refunded for the loss of service? We pay for an expensive service that was not available and should be compensated

  • wlivermore1973 WAYNE (@wlivermore1973) reported

    @KatieXKathryn @virginmedia Can somebody please contact me so I can cancel. I wouldn’t normally bother but it’s not about yesterday the service has been rubbish for a while now and I want out.

  • Wenxue2222 Brigantian in Exile (@Wenxue2222) reported

    @virginmedia I'm just a little confused as to how the power supply to your entire national TV service links into the function of your website, which was down too. Also no backup power supply for either of these things? Usually a server hosting a major commercial website would have that.
