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

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

    Not a lover of call centres and thought that they didn't really offer any customer service of any real value, then you have the likes of @virginmedia and @Hermesparcels that seem to want to upset customers. That said, credit to @NespressoUK, was blown away with your service

  • gaussey 𝗠𝙞𝖼𝗵𝖺𝙚𝗅 𓆤 (@gaussey) reported from Redcar, England

    @FoolRare @virginmedia Thanks, service status is down and wondered if it was just my hub dying.

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

    @virginmedia Yes I'm aware, they have just hung up on me again after an hour without even a real person, 6 times now and thats why I was asking for @richardbranson number, your sales guys don't seem to have any issues calling me though #JustSaying

  • 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!

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

    @virginmedia No errors, never is, yet everyday at least once my net goes off, normally for 10 minutes sometimes for up to 4 or 5 hours, cant remember last time I made it 24 hours with no down time

  • 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.

  • GazzaG1 Gary Ayre (@GazzaG1) reported from Blackhall Colliery, England

    @virginmedia WiFi signal from hub3 is unreliable and I am by only in a1 bedroom bungalow, I never use the tvbox as all channels are rubbish and my mobile signal is disgraceful-virgin is worse decision i have ever made

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

    @virginmedia hi, any help on a non responsive remote to vbox? It is flashing red when I press buttons bit nothing happening on box. Only started happening tonight

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

    @NathHawkeswood @virginmedia Twitter cant help, phoning cant speak to anyone, text service in an endless loop, chat service online is also an endless loop I need to speak with line faults and they aren't even an option on the automated phone service so I'm really screwed

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

    @KEESH1984 @virginmedia 8 days of that, we not heard fro you for a while youbstill need to speak to someone? OK let's start the whole thing again Chuffing useless, what they offer is not customer service its hope it fixes itself before anyone notices or leaves

  • gaussey 𝗠𝙞𝖼𝗵𝖺𝙚𝗅 𓆤 (@gaussey) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia No, everything is fine thanks, the outage only lasted two hours.

  • 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

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

    @AhDeluxe @virginmedia Was it the 10 minute off or the 4/5 hour cut? Never anything inbetween in my experience

  • 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

  • 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?

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

    @virginmedia can you advise the next time I will be able to receive your broadband for a period of 24 hours or more without it going down? #StayConnected #IfYouCan

  • 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. ******* ****

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

    . @NOWTV @nowtvhelp any idea on how to stop the intermittent blue screen when playing back any on demand video or TV channels? Got an older now TV smart box. It's wired connection into a 300mbps virgin media hub so no issues.on playback speed.

  • Poddddddd Jamie Gilbey (@Poddddddd) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia can I access some support on here?

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

    @virginmedia Let me ask, so you know how long the line is to speak to technical support? Have you tried using the text service and online chat? I have all at the same time and after 8 days I still hadn't spoke with anyone, you are unable to support your services

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • 1DaveyMo David Morton (@1DaveyMo) reported

    @eqdynamics @KateBaucherel @katebevan Just had a Google. Seems Virgin media disable PPTP and L2TP by default. Also seems that they disable access to various VPNs . I suspect that Xav is using a work VPN tho. Only reasons I can think it might cause performance issues on non VPN connections are routing and CPU loading

  • iRIN382 《【RIN】》 (@iRIN382) reported

    @virginmedia dear VM, we called the customer service team to cancel our contract with yourselves to only be hung up on after 1h!! 😠🙄 Is there any way to cancel the contract online?

  • doubleodix John Dix (@doubleodix) reported

    @virginmedia I managed to contact an engineer directly because nobody in your office communicates. I’m going to refer it to the ombudsman as it is literally impossible to talk to anybody. I would still like to know how I cancel - calling isn’t an option as I’ve been doing this for months.

  • dilanja Dilan (@dilanja) reported

    @virginmedia @BigIssue Can you please contact me having severe performance issues in my broadband. Been on hold endlessly trying to get through...

  • KinlanPaul Paul Kinlan🍀Sighthill Emerald Flag Bearer🍀 (@KinlanPaul) reported

    @virginmedia It's as if it's "bots" who are manning your so called customer service lines !!!

  • Carrierbag83 Carrie Marshall (@Carrierbag83) reported

    @virginmedia Oh I am so bored of these same Tweets and replies......just send someone to fix the clear area fault in KT8.

  • UrbanChaos86 Andrew Beswick (@UrbanChaos86) reported

    @richardbranson @virginmedia Please Help. My parents have been without heating and hot water this winter after a Virgin Media installation damaged their home. Virgin Media have repeatedly been slow in a cold winter where both my parents have since had COVID 19. Please Help

  • ginlloyd Gin (@ginlloyd) reported

    @virginmedia please contact me re contract which is not in accordance with our agreement and was never signed. I have been waiting for over an hour on 150.

  • Dave_R_85 Surfer Dave (@Dave_R_85) reported

    @MattHibbert @virginmedia It’s possibly they have the voltage from the cab to your house wrong causing this type of crap

  • KirstyMac712 Kirsty MacDiarmid (@KirstyMac712) reported from Fleet, England

    Hi @virginmedia really hard to work from home when the wifi keeps cutting out. We’ve not had a connection since 10.30 last night. Please help.
