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

  • 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

  • Johnsonator85 Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia It doesn’t matter what day or what time I try to call I get the same problem!

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia seriously, a price increase?! Only renewed my contract 2 months ago and for more than I've ever paid! Of course, no customer service available either. Ridiculous!

  • 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.

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia I rang after the email and they assured me they have applied a discount and would stay the same price for my contract. I agreed a fix price and if that's not what I got then I have been lied too, which is a miss sale and the ombudsman will be contacted, again.

  • 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 Mainly wireless but wired issues too

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

    @virginmedia how can I cancel my contract? Unable to get through via phone.

  • RobertTamkin94 Robert-Andrew Tamkin (@RobertTamkin94) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia I’ve been trying to contact your call centre for 15 minutes and I’ve tried all the options and I can’t get through to ANYONE!! I want to cancel my contract and it doesn’t give you the option online to do so!! Can someone cancel it from your social media team?

  • Johnsonator85 Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia Ffs YOU try calling that number and tell me if you get through to somebody. I’ve tried god knows how many times and I just get a machine telling me you’re busy and that I “might like to call again later” every, single time. Your level of service is a joke.

  • DanielHill21 Daniel Hill (@DanielHill21) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia can I have some help ASAP, in regards to an issue I’m having and I’m in a bad way

  • BradleyStaunch Bradley Staunch (@BradleyStaunch) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Virgin media internet is good, EVERY SINGLE other thing about them is ******* shite. Never understand the ***** on the phone takes, 3 hours to get through, website always down, make a payment page been broke for 5 years. ******* ****

  • m_arthur1 mick arthur (@m_arthur1) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia @d754771 I’m still waiting for the call aswell I know it’s a bad time with call centres closed but come on Sunday I was told 24hrs

  • Divadi29 Dianne Wilson (@Divadi29) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia Both, i currently have to work from home and my internet crashes all the time. i can’t get a signal in my bedroom which is the room directly above the box

  • Divadi29 Dianne Wilson (@Divadi29) reported from Billingham, England

    @virginmedia i was asked to upgrade as a valued customer, since upgrading my broadband is terrible we are all using 4g at home as connection is so poor. i have done all testing as directed from comp voice on phone and link sent to mobile. i pay for 3 virgin mobiles one now has no data

  • Johnsonator85 Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia who have I got to screw to get through to cancel my contract with you?

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

    @virginmedia So why do you not have a chat system? I work in a similar industry and we are able to help our customer through chat, phone, online, social media it’s crazy a company of the size of virgin media can’t accommodate us. Not having a go at you I’m just disappointed in the system

  • 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

  • Johnsonator85 Marc J (@Johnsonator85) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia In the meantime I can’t do anything then so basically you’ve been no help whatsoever

  • vmbusinesshelp Customer Service (@vmbusinesshelp) reported

    @liveliketheboy @virginmedia I'm sorry to hear this, of course, it is important we make the customer aware of the situation so you are aware of what is going on. My best advice to keep up to date with the situation would be to call our order management team on 0800 052 0800 and then option one

  • VicusScurra Ken Phillips (@VicusScurra) reported

    I nominate @virginmedia for the worst customer service award in the know universe. Perhaps Branson went into space trying to find more able staff. 1/2

  • veritystockdale Verity S (@veritystockdale) reported

    Ever since the massive London outtage, my iPhone can’t remain attached to the WiFi. Phone locks and it disconnects, every time. I see others having the same issue. What’s happening with this @virginmedia?

  • RachelGillies19 Rachel Gillies (@RachelGillies19) reported

    @virginmedia Still not rectified. Why would I return to you with such poor customer service. Also while we were with you the service was poor. I would like the issues with the connections dealt with as promised by area manager, and contact from complaint team re compo

  • kellymarie_21_x Kelly Henry (@kellymarie_21_x) reported

    @virginmedia I’m disgusted at your company. We’ve been customers less than a week. My husband is on the phone to you and we’ve just been told someone is coming out on the 4th august!! So hang on, we’ve to sit with no WiFi or TV until then! Really!! We’re now cancelling our account. Thanks

  • Cliveuk54 Clive Bennett (@Cliveuk54) reported

    @virginmedia so is there a problem on your system or what I have booked for someone to come and check it out but this not till Monday so not happy as it has been off since Thursday

  • Zarsama1 Zar sama (ざる様) (@Zarsama1) reported

    @TGA_Streams Virgin media down. Internet not working. How do I view guys.

  • SueAnnA74113297 Sue Ann Anderson (@SueAnnA74113297) reported

    @virginmedia No. They offered me a stupid 11.00 compensation. They are going to monitor it. Believe that as well. Cos last nite it went off twice. Its cost me a fortune for my mobile data. I have 4 virgin phones on contract. I am on your disabled register. Customer s. Stinks.

  • GJBeynon1978 Gareth Beynon (@GJBeynon1978) reported

    @virginmedia So just to clarify this correctly for future issues I may experience Virgin media suggest firstly I should post it in their community forums and see if your members (who I assume are generally customers) can resolve it. If not then an expert will reply??
