Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Sunderland Bridge and nearby locations:

  • VictoriaBarry82 Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia I’ve looked & it’s no help

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

    @virginmedia fully and reasonably, the agent response was "oh okay" and put the phone down. How do I make a formal complaint about the atrocious service you guys offer? (2/2)

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

    @virginmedia hey virgin media - when I'm told a final figure on my account and find out the agent lied and gave me a higher figure and then your complaint team tell me not to worry it'll be sorted. My contract finished on 30/3 but you've still taken a full month's payment (1/2)

  • beck5ter Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @beardedian @VirginMediaCorp Then again I wouldn't expect anything less from Virgin Media. The only thing that is stopping me leaving them is losing my emails. Going to look into an alternative solution to that problem tomorrow

  • modelnicola Nicola (@modelnicola) reported from Peterlee, England

    @VirginMediaCorp @virginmedia paperwork completed by my other half for court. Not a single follow up from Virgin. Please RT what a shambles this company and their contractors are. Accepted fault for damage at the time but won't pay up for repairs. Spread the word. Retweet this!

  • mark770 Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia My issue is bband been down since Thursday night and Friday a tech visit for this morning between 8 and 12. Due to an outage at your end, the visit was incorrectly cancelled as your records showed as "now fixed". We didn't find this until contacting yourselves after 12 today

  • VictoriaBarry82 Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia M125, it’s terrible, it’s always going down, if we are both wfh we need to turn any devices off to be able to use our work laptops

  • mark770 Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia JS, have you taken the time to read the thread through? It would appear not as your previous colleague intimated that you would be looking at auto-comp issue when I notified you that the issue had been resolved though you mentioned nothing about that.

  • mark770 Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia how can you justify levying £25.00 charges if fail to cancel a "now resolved" tech visit but you fail to reciprocate the gesture when YOU cancel a visit and fail to notify the customer with the cancellation being due to an "outage" at your end? Shambolic&insulting

  • Tanya_M_S Tanya ❤️🤍 (@Tanya_M_S) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia sky red button not working again. 😕 sort it out 🤬😡😡😡😡

  • beck5ter Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Question?? how long before Virgin Media shuts down your email if you leave them?? @VirginMediaCorp

  • mark770 Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia An area outage with something your end caused my issue (no bband) to flag as being resolved at your end. That was not the case in slightest (still without bband) and the tech appt this morning being cancelled but no notification

  • modelnicola Nicola (@modelnicola) reported from Peterlee, England

    @virginmedia Frustrating it had to come to this when an internal investigation would easily reveal that your contractors removed struts designed to secure the fence. Now having to pay court fees to remedy an issue created by you. It's a sham. I guess you hope most people back down.

  • KeithRwc Keith Dawson (@KeithRwc) reported from Washington, England

    Looks like @virginmedia are again trying to take Netflix payment that should already be included in my Volt. This is disgusting behaviour having already spoke to them previously!! Anyone else having similar issues?

  • VictoriaBarry82 Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia The link asks me to log in which I do, then it shows me my contract etc, I can either fill a form in for someone to contact me but I’ve did it before or it shows the complaint as been closed

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

    @virginmedia great service NOT! Called yesterday to disconnect and was blatantly given incorrect information by the chat agent. Had a call today from another retention agent asking how he could resolve the issues so I explained what happened. (1/2)

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

    @virginmedia any chance we'll get reimbursed for the service outage in the TS20 postcode? 2 days we've had a fault

  • VictoriaBarry82 Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @virginmedia Yes that’s fine, I offered to send it back but I was told to use it until the call was listened to. Can you check on the progress of the complaint

  • ema_neale emma (@ema_neale) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for your reset help earlier it worked, unlike waiting 10 hrs for someone to finally respond to me again via WhatsApp. I was told that there were no offers for current customers yet your website states otherwise!

  • AlanHewitt10 Big Al H (@AlanHewitt10) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia how do you have the front to increase my bills by nearly 20 percent and yet your service has been awful lately. In the morning my tv broadband and landline is going. And my mobile will not be renewed.

  • Hamiyd6 Hamiyd (@Hamiyd6) reported

    @virginmedia The service is disgusting

  • krissladewski Kris Sladewski (@krissladewski) reported

    @virginmedia I got an email saying that it will be with me in 3 days but I’m already Virgin Mobile customer. Last time I upgraded I didn’t get new sim, sim only deal changed to the new one. I also got a text saying “You've upgraded! You can start enjoying your new package from 02/12/2022.”

  • tisha_temmanuel Tisha Emmanuel (@tisha_temmanuel) reported

    @virginmedia Installation postponed again on last minute. They comfortably send a delay email with ‘apology’ mentioned multiple times. I have been continuously following up with customer care to ensure that the installation will happen this time, and they were always affirmative

  • TastyFudge2021 Tasty Fudge (@TastyFudge2021) reported

    @virginmedia @virginhelp I'm still waiting on a 48hr diagnostic review from virgin so hang fire on this till I get a response

  • Janet__Tennant Janet Tennant (@Janet__Tennant) reported

    @virginmedia totally the worst customer service on the planet, no respect, no loyalty and a total bully just spoke with me

  • chaswhiskey ChasW 🇺🇦 (@chaswhiskey) reported

    @virginmedia More crap from customer service today. Still issues 4 months in. Still can't get resolution, still being overcharged, still can't access the 'new' account that was set up as moving home blew their system up. Manager call back promised-still nothing. Rubbish company.

  • stuartfox56_fox Stuart fox (@stuartfox56_fox) reported

    @virginmedia 11 days without service been give a £5 good will credit and still not working. Have had a virgin technician out yesterday and 2 workers from KIER today. Still no Internet service

  • krissladewski Kris Sladewski (@krissladewski) reported

    @virginmedia Sure, I called Virgin Mobile yesterday and upgraded my contact and since then I can’t get signal, connect to data or do anything else that requires connection to the network.

  • DbaseJim Jim Taylor (@DbaseJim) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks for the response. I have since spoken to your pre-install team who have advised that the service is good to go but the kit has dispatched but no-one knows where it is. Happy to wait until after the weekend when they said they will update me.

  • samnetik SamNetik (@samnetik) reported

    @virginmedia so after being on hold for 4 hours to set up my house move, turns out it wasn’t done, then after 3 phone calls today wifi is still not working and I’ve been told to waiting until Tuesday for an engineer to look at it.
