Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Saltburn-by-the-Sea, England

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Saltburn-by-the-Sea and nearby locations:

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Service back after a engineer visit last night, with another coming again today. After being with Virgin for years, the Tv and internet service these past 6 months has been poor, surely I should get a reduction on my bill.

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia I’m not going to waste time in doing that, I’ve worked in telecommunications, I know how your process works, I also know you’ll try and pass the book to customers before taking blame because the tiniest speck of dust can effect my WiFi signal. So it’s fine.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @grimegran You have been awful since the lockdown, yet I keep seeing these hopeful ads that just wind me up as anyone currently on you service knows that it is currently a joke. Yesterday was the first time since the lockdown started that I didnt lose connection at all or have router fail

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia shock as broadband is down again. Yet you’ll still expect full payment from everyone.

  • wanaldinho wayne burnett (@wanaldinho) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia come on guys internet still not working in Middlesbrough

  • Bradley_19_ Bradley Osborne (@Bradley_19_) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @RunnerVi @virginmedia Use their email/live support found on their website.

  • wywilko Wendy Wilkinson (@wywilko) reported from Loftus, England

    @virginmedia Morning my partner needs help with sorting out money owed to him as he recommended his son to get virgin media installed he has now been told there is no record of this even though several conversations have taken place can we raise to next level very frustrating 😞

  • bettercallmal ˥ ∀ W (@bettercallmal) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    The country is on lockdown and Virgin Media has been going down all day. Would hate to work for customer service right now.

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I dont mean to be rude but I can tell you now the option to text was not on the "contact us" page I visited on your website, but I see it's just a text option to the live chat anyway so this will be a waste of my time but texting now

  • grahamdo Rev Graham Dobinson (@grahamdo) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia yet again virgin media is down.

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

    @virginmedia No as I’m unable to get through 1. Because my signal is horrendous and 2. Because your lines are constantly closed. It seems easier for me to just go back to @EE as I need reliability, I’ve missed too many important phone calls since using VM.

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    Had visit No 2 from Virgin, a couple of nice chaps,chased cables and removed cable still connected to the network that's not been used for years,new modem,new leads,new remote and the supervisor's number with a call back in a week, all good so far well done @virginmedia

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

    @virginmedia Tried this, 3 days to reply per message. Pathetic really, good customer service could compensate for poor phone service but I don’t get either. I get the VM sim for free with my package, I’d rather pay an extra £20 a month elsewhere to make sure I don’t miss important calls

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia @bethanymiah_ I'll save you both some time there and tell you now that you will be able to make no difference whatsoever, the hubs have always been awful and it seems they have got worse since lockdown, maybe they can catch Covid too

  • Erinshore11 Geoff Wright (@Erinshore11) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia Spoke too soon back in off again. Obviously nothing to do with modem as it’s new, same issues as before this time off for a fair amount of time now, is there an issue imnn in in TS8 location.

  • Emfozz Em (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Ironic you try and blame customers. It’s your service not my house or my equipment or how I’m using it.

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

    @EE Would be more than happy to rejoin EE even without my NHS discount if someone would actually call me back. Don’t think I can take another week of important missed calls from @virginmedia - yes I know they use the EE network but not the enhanced 4G+ side 🙄

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I have, many many times and it always comes back to same, yet I'm down about 80mbs this morning, I've restarted my router today already because I switched my laptop on (everytime), and I can also crash my router with 1 device almost at will

  • DanielHill21 Daniel Hill (@DanielHill21) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia need help

  • UKLightCreation Bryan Light (@UKLightCreation) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Done, I'm now down about 360mbs from where my speed normally is, and just checked, yep can still crash my router using my laptop without trying

  • DJ_Jamesie Jamesie (@DJ_Jamesie) reported

    @virginmedia Basically there no contact unless I fancy spending six hours on hold and spoken to like ****, just looked. Absolute joke

  • KeenanJ122 Keenanjohnson (@KeenanJ122) reported

    @virginmedia Customer service is awful, I don't know who deemed this the "Most reliable WiFi ever" but they need their head checking.

  • mi6730i muji (@mi6730i) reported

    @virginmedia why is your data so damn slow

  • KHCDwest1 KD (@KHCDwest1) reported

    @virginmedia Reliable WiFi, you’re having a laugh. The last two days, service has been shocking. Intermittent, up and down. You realise people are trying to work from home? Sort your service out, we pay good money for bad service. I’m moving house soon, will use that to move providers.

  • ElementLoyal11 GM (@ElementLoyal11) reported

    @Nickmyles78 @virginmedia Wi-Fi boosters all essentially do the same job. You just looking to get a better signal upstairs or something?

  • Nicole_Baker Coley B (@Nicole_Baker) reported

    @becky_vs_world @VirginRadioUK @virginmedia have the worst customer service... It's shocking. I put a complaint in about their customer service in November 2020! I'm still waiting. Disgrace #poorservice #badcustomerrelations

  • LloydGriffith Lloyd Griffith (@LloydGriffith) reported

    @virginmedia John, we’ve done all that before as mentioned above. It then says download the app which wouldn’t load (as WiFi not working) and can’t get through to anyone on the phone. I need to be online in half an hour.

  • Samanth32789588 #hellomynameis Samantha Miller (@Samanth32789588) reported from Liverpool, England

    @virginmedia Your Customer Service really is so bad...looks like another hour long phone-call AGAIN with probably somebody AGAIN, who doesn’t know what they’re talking about. Definitely taking our customer else where after this 😡

  • dado9090 Damiano Soardo (@dado9090) reported

    @virginmedia Again, not even 3 days after my last tweet, no internet again. Worst service I have ever experienced and I have only been a client for 2 weeks. I am considering cancelling as this is terrible.

  • jimbojames79 James Chappell (@jimbojames79) reported

    @LadyOliviaFox @virginmedia Wow. That is seriously bad. I bet even YM gets faster than that!
