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

  • SharBella72 Bella (@SharBella72) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia internet is down, again in Sunderland area.

  • maxinetennet74 Maxine Tennet (@maxinetennet74) reported from Walker Gate, England

    What will it take for @virginmedia to actually sort out an account after a bereavement??? 3 months later, endless calls and empty promises. Continued anxiety and distress for an elderly woman is not the bereavement service I’d expect. Appalling.

  • CazzaW CazzaW (@CazzaW) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Wakey wakey @virginmedia shoddy service not to update a LOT of the UK on broadband problems

  • CazzaW CazzaW (@CazzaW) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @virginmedia down in Newcastle? How am I meant to work?

  • classicm Mike Moody (@classicm) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia All my tv, broadband and phone services are down. Nobody available from Virgin to help. Done all the usual checks and still off.

  • 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?

  • pearceswan David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia If there is any tools that you can suggest I use to solve my issue it will be greatly appreciated, I don’t mean to mean in your position but I just would like to know exactly what you can do SHAW at the end of the day I’m assuming you’re going to tell me to go to technical help

  • pearceswan David Pearce (@pearceswan) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried to use the add-on service as being a broadband customer I’m able to download to the O2 app however I cannot sign in as I do not have a mobile number and it will not accept my landline, can you help

  • 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!

  • benrelton ben (@benrelton) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Broadband is down in our area, but can’t register loss of service on the website - just won’t work. Any ideas? @virginmedia

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

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

  • PaulCraig24 Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia She has tried but every time they say they can’t help if she hasn’t got her password! Can I chat to someone about this as there are personal issues. I understand that this may be difficult as it is not my account. Thanks

  • 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.

  • TheFraserPorter Fraser Porter (@TheFraserPorter) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia twice in 2 months that my hub 5 has completely gone down with a flashing red light and won’t work, I’ve had to book a technician for it both times. Costs too much for this to keep happening!

  • 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!

  • 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

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

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

  • 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

  • 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

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

    @virginmedia Out of contact & another £8 was added. My account for the free booster another complaint was logged. But no one has called me back. Can u DM me to have a look into this

  • Scarlett1881 Scarlett (@Scarlett1881) reported

    @virginmedia Is there any reason it’s taking so long and I’m getting texts daily pushing it back 1/2 days everytime? Is it even being worked on? 10 days with no wifi isn’t right, I’m paying for a service you’re not providing

  • clairewhyte12 claire whyte (@clairewhyte12) reported

    @virginmedia internet keeps going off and status page says no problems when initially clicked on, it then says intermittent signal when doing a check? 3 days now. When is it going to be sorted???

  • TCloudscaper The cloudscaper (@TCloudscaper) reported

    @virginmedia @555Husker Virgin Media has promised to fix my broadband since the 15th day in, day out, empty words. They cut my wire and left. Still no service, no fix, just promises. This isn’t acceptable. #VirginMedia #BroadbandFail

  • mickharkin68531 mick harkin (@mickharkin68531) reported

    @brakusmc @virginmedia @SkyUK I would expect so much more from a business broadband service

  • brakusmc The REAL Ric Jones (@brakusmc) reported

    At this point, I'm certain @virginmedia is just a ploy to get me back in the office. My phone is on WiFi but the app says I'm not. Awful signal in my home office & when they tell me to order a pod, the link doesn't work. Even though it was slower, I shouldn't have left @SkyUK

  • KatieMcElhoney 𝐊𝐀𝐓𝐄 🌺 (@KatieMcElhoney) reported

    @virginmedia swapping over to yourselves has been such a mistake & it seems so immoral keeping us in our contract when you can’t provide the speeds we have paid for. 15 years with @O2 and they’ll be losing me as a customer too because your merger insinuates you both think it’s OK

  • JohnYani John Yani (@JohnYani) reported

    @c3llc0de @shangoman @virginmedia VirginMedia beats OpenReach in fibre coverage. And is cheaper. The problem is either aggressive sales or a leaky customer database.

  • Kazzaaaaah Kazzaaaaah!! (@Kazzaaaaah) reported

    @bobwootton @virginmedia My broadband is off too (nothing new there). Service check no help - all it wants to do is run a speed check which doesn't work because I'm not online! TV has an amber exclamation mark too but that's working fine. Hope I'm online by am or I'll have to pay to go into the office

  • DanEmsman Dan Emsley (@DanEmsman) reported

    @virginmedia I've had broadband for just over a week as a new customer. It seems to be working fine apart from a small dropout last weekend except for my Sky Q TV box. It cannot hold a connection so can't watch any on demand TV. I've tried various things based upon online advice

  • ruchillbhoy79 Tommybhoy79🍀🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽ (@ruchillbhoy79) reported

    Hey @virginmedia get your internet issues sorted in the Uddingston area! Been faulty for months now.... we're fed up paying you lot a lot of money for a shite service! 😡🤬 Time to look for a switch I'm thinking and I won't be the only one I bet!
