Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Middlesbrough, England

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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Blenky64 John Blenkinsopp (@Blenky64) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I’ve messaged that number twice - first time nearly three hours ago and still no acknowledgement. I think you need to sort this out or all your customers will leave come on - please let me know why there is no customer service response three hours is hopeless

  • 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 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

  • FatAbbott Ste Addison (@FatAbbott) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @SamMorrison19 @virginmedia What kit did you have when it was intermittent, I've got same issues

  • 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

  • simonmp68 SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I want my tv service sorting. Just not good enough despite current situation. Second time this fault has occured and fed up of being told “working on it” get it fixed or I leave

  • simonmp68 SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Gone through apps,web,hours on phone even my nieces partner who works for you but system down. I am really getting annoyed

  • 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

  • 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

  • simonmp68 SimonMorrisonPeacock (@simonmp68) reported from Thornaby-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I have been trying to get problem with my box sorted for 3 weeks now. Cuts out sound only. Still not sorted and all info followed. Gone beyond frustrated now simply unacceptable customer service I want to know where else I can complain to or where can get sorted

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

  • 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.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

    @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

  • 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

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • 97LukeAlexander Luke L Alexander (@97LukeAlexander) reported

    @virginmedia I was told the complaint was closed and a letter had been sent out by the customer service advisor. His manager then later on said he is refusing to take the complaint further, before I then had to remind him what the VM policy for dealing with complaints is.

  • martynhardacre Martyn (@martynhardacre) reported

    @virginmedia Seems to be ok now but had issues for around 7 hours yesterday along with several other people in my area

  • TheDuckRage 🔞 DuckRage 🔞 Nsfw Artist: Comm Open (@TheDuckRage) reported

    @virginmedia It turns out that when i logged the complaint twice neither advisor has logged it so yeah pretty piss poor dont you think. Ive logged the complaint a week ago verbally, if it isnt acknowledged within 8 weeks ill pass it along to the independent body

  • gavin_bowen Gavin Bowen (@gavin_bowen) reported

    @virginmedia Your phone cuts me off, I fail DPA when I provide sufficient detail, emails cannot be responded to & the website is shocking! Your serve?

  • sharpy55 Paul Sharp (@sharpy55) reported

    @virginmedia It just said oops our bad, cannot find hub? Had a DM from VM as to confirm my address which I have, now they want my card details ( bank I assume). Is this correct procedure?

  • MrGEWilliams Graeme Williams (@MrGEWilliams) reported

    @virginmedia Hi. Buffering, lag, and dropouts with an Ethernet cable connected. All the usual steps taken and had an engineer out. Other customers online seem to focus on the problem being the hub.

  • Joseph76541972 Joseph (@Joseph76541972) reported

    @virginhelp @richardbranson @virginmedia No one is helping, I cancelled my contact in 2017 and have been charged ever since over the last 6 weeks asked to cancel my contract 3/5 times and the staff won’t and are very rude

  • 97LukeAlexander Luke L Alexander (@97LukeAlexander) reported

    @virginmedia I can't find where the complaint is on the MyVM app

  • SarahGrantish Sarah Grant (@SarahGrantish) reported

    @virginmedia Hi Virgin Media, trying to cancel my contract and am unable to get through to anybody. I have transferred to someone and can hear them breathing down the phone, but nobody is talking? Please advise

  • CrumpetLips CrumpetLips (@CrumpetLips) reported

    @virginmedia Just tried to signup for MyVirginMedia, told my password is too long? Are you for real? I only tried 13 characters. Wtf are your devs doing if they can't handle a 13 character password? What's the technical explanation as to why you can't handle a "long" password?
