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

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

    @virginmedia They can't help either, the real issue, lets be honest, is the fact nobody at Virgin will admit their equipment is awful and not really fit for purpose, the least super thing ever is the superhub 3.0

  • C4SPAR_ C4SP4R (@C4SPAR_) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @davidm_allan @virginmedia I Live in Roker, had nothing but trouble with virgin broadband. Had it replaced today.

  • Douggy1908 Douggy (@Douggy1908) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia I have issues with everything

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

    @virginmedia I've done this many times previously and does nothing, the most recent request to switch it from modem mode is so you would process my complaint with ofcom which in turn means I'm without WiFi for 30 days unless standing on the "superhub"

  • 1slandmonkey Benjamin Spurling (@1slandmonkey) reported from Washington, England

    @virginmedia not impressed with your customer service this week. After days of attempted communication I finally spoke to someone about getting a new phone. They spoke terrible English, were unhelpful and have actually lost you my potential 24month contract.

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

    @virginmedia Mainly wireless but wired issues too

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

    @virginmedia You won't process it as I am not willing to pay for 30 days of no Internet as the hub has almost zero range even if my line issues are resolved

  • HannahWhite93 HannahWhite93 (@HannahWhite93) reported from Hartlepool, England

    WHY IS VIRGIN MEDIA INTERNET ****??? I JUST WANT TO WATCH YOUTUBE ON MY GOD DAMN TABLET

  • AnnaForester87 Anna Forester (@AnnaForester87) reported from Washington, England

    @virginmedia network problem half way through Grease, haway man! 3rd day in a row aswell

  • 147mick Michael White (@147mick) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Yes problems with wired devices as well, I have to turn the hub off then on again all the time even if I'm in the same room.

  • andy_wilmot Andy Wilmot (@andy_wilmot) reported from Hartlepool, England

    £40+ a month for WiFi which cuts in and out. Just another day for a @virginmedia customer 🤬😡

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

    @virginmedia No, just continue to ignore me as they have no idea how to fix it

  • LumbWriter David Lumb Writer (@LumbWriter) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia why is the internet down? I've checked and you're aware of this issue. I would like it sorted out

  • AndrewI81572127 Andrew Irwin (@AndrewI81572127) reported from Washington, England

    @virginmedia my parents services are down , in Consett , co Durham . Phone and everything

  • SafcJamieG Jamie (@SafcJamieG) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia They raised a complaint and nothing was done about it, they probably didn’t even listen to the call where I was sold the product, if they did it would have been dealt with

  • ryderboy24 Paul Ryder (@ryderboy24) reported from Hart, England

    @virginmedia any reason why my broadband is so slow and my bill is so expensive

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

    @virginmedia I wouldn't recommend your media connect app its awful, the booster you sent out does exactly zero, as for blackspots around the house that would be anywhere in the house more than 1.5m from the hub, all the software in the world won't polish the turn you call a superhub

  • PeteYourDoom Peter 🐈🎸🕹️ (@PeteYourDoom) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Yay, virgin media outage has stopped and been fixed

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

    @virginmedia Rebooting does nothing and service status page says nothing and if it was to do with that it would mean you owe me 5 years worth of credit notes

  • Douggy1908 Douggy (@Douggy1908) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia No nothing I’ve been thorough it all, already your just ****.

  • AJHUD Abdul Jabbar (@AJHUD) reported

    Recently purchased a Google Wifi mesh and for some reason every morning at 8:25 it goes from a great connection to weak. I have to restart the router to fix the issue. @virginmedia

  • jellrunning Jelly Baby (@jellrunning) reported

    @virginmedia 2, causing issues. I asked if there were other customers in my situation and he conceded there were (a lot) Had there been some statement saying we are still trying to fix things, bear with us. I might have saved 2 hours on the phone to Ring which resulted

  • rebeckle rebeckle (@rebeckle) reported

    oh hi @virginmedia @Ofcom 3 weeks with no internet, due for installation this morning, no one's turned up. my account is linked to my old address and says i'm not a customer (not true) and I don't fancy playing phone system pingpong with you again. How do i talk to a human?

  • PeakeCondition Lisa (@PeakeCondition) reported

    @virginmedia No, I mean no internet so I couldn’t get in. Tried a few times. Says no issue. Turned modem on and off, all the cables are stable. I’m not resetting as it’s a nightmare splitting the signal again. Ugh. This is so frustrating.

  • cngd79 dc (@cngd79) reported

    @virginmedia This seems to be a common thread for a number of your customers around the country. @virginmedia advising to check out router and/or connection, but the problem appears to be on the @virginmedia side, not the customer.

  • AndyJ93519624 I Am Andy J 🍻 i think🤔 (@AndyJ93519624) reported

    Ppl if you're thinking of switching to @virginmedia 1 gig dont the #superhub4 is broken it cannot route the speed properly to the ports switches or wireless. Smart wifi is a joke the booster pods won't work either unless u use #Smartwifi Stick to #superhub3

  • FutileExistenc3 Futile Existence (@FutileExistenc3) reported

    @virginmedia The account is no longer active I have been in contact with numerous people from virgin and told they would send it to my new address and its never happened this has been going on for well over six months now

  • AntonyShaw99 Antony Shaw (@AntonyShaw99) reported

    Mad how whenever you wanna downgrade or remove a service from @virginmedia the phone always cuts out and they don’t call you back 🧐 but if I wanted to join they’d be knocking on my door

  • danielchengg1 Daniel Cheng (@danielchengg1) reported

    @virginmedia I have and its the same as it was yesterday. Network issue which is being looked at. Can't imagine it'd take that long to fix upload speed though as my download is fine.

  • Mumship The Mothership (@Mumship) reported

    @virginmedia Yes, you did that by asking me my email, last bill date, bill amount and characters from my password. Please explain why I then need to give a stranger my bank details to ask a question about a fault on my TV service. Need to keep my account secure too!
