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

  • stephwales_ Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia That was the original issue, the main thing outside was flooded and corroded (affecting 6 customers in street), so the network team I think came and fixed that, we've had 1 week of working service until today.

  • stephwales_ Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England

    Why can't @virginmedia ever just be straight forward? Absolute joke. Problem after problem.

  • NETheatreGuide NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Walker Gate, England

    Time for the @virginmedia renewal. They want to hike the price. We want a new reliable WiFi box which they promised but didn't deliver last time. To be honest @BT is looking attractive as they may improve the signal around the house.

  • mickeywhizz Michael Taylor (@mickeywhizz) reported from Newburn, England

    @markcatchlove @virginmedia Pleased it’s not just me Mark. It really pee’s me off the contempt with which they treat their existing, loyal customers, some of whom have remained loyal since the days when they were Telewest. #newcustomersonly

  • clairekitty12 claire🐱🐾🐾 (@clairekitty12) reported from Gateshead, England

  • RobbyRSSRobot Robby #CelebrateNeighbours (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Any idea when my service will be back? Hub is flashing green. I'm working from home so need it urgently.

  • Stevedey Steve Dey (@Stevedey) reported from Newburn, England

    @GingesLife @virginmedia Honestly mate it’s a joke! Just paid the bill yesterday and now the cheeky buggers can’t even provide the service they charge us so much for.

  • vitosauras 🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia It's not a problem at my end, and it's not just me affected. Have you really not noticed a flurry of people saying the same thing? I know people in different areas of the UK who have the same problems at the same times.

  • vitosauras 🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    **** off Virgin Media, useless bollocks

  • lintoniosmythe Iinton Smith (@lintoniosmythe) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @virginmedia your call centre is an absolute joke. No one deals with problems and just transfers to a different department who hang up

  • clairekitty12 claire🐱🐾🐾 (@clairekitty12) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia But do you understand that this is a problem in my area you were aware of ! Said it would be fixed but it hasen't ? It just needs reporting i don't need a tech to my house i beed it to the area

  • clairekitty12 claire🐱🐾🐾 (@clairekitty12) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia I did the online thing before contacting u it says needs a tech . But it doesnt it needs your outage fixed .

  • NETheatreGuide NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Ryton, England

    @virginmedia You offer the same package to new customers at nearly £20 cheaper so it isn't the lowest price possible, is it? Spoke 18 months ago about signal. Was told it would be looked at if I agreed to renew. Once renewed was told WiFi is not guaranteed so tough.

  • NETheatreGuide NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Ryton, England

    @virginmedia The signal struggles to get to each room in the house. My son complains as he games. No chance of streaming music in the bathroom. It isn't a big house either. The deal I'm on currently was negotiated when I spoke to disconnection team rather than intro offer.

  • liamsholder91 liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia can you help me please everytime I try to log in the virgin media app on my mobile account it's logs me off all the time why ?

  • Callumreal1 Callum (@Callumreal1) reported

    @virginmedia why is is it so hard to make a complaint against you!? Surely you have to make this as easy as possible?

  • GusAlston Gus Alston (he/him) (@GusAlston) reported

    @virginmedia Great. So total outage gets compensation, but you've decided it's OK to just charge your full amount for 4+ days of intermittent faults directly caused by your team

  • Japester3 John Palmer (@Japester3) reported

    @virginmedia As I tweeted. The Virgin letter gives a complaint ref# and the link to check on the progress of resolution of the complaint, I can't access as the system does not recognise my email address. Despite the system using my email to send me your bills. More...

  • Aphilli61928603 A.phillips (@Aphilli61928603) reported

    @virginmedia Paying for upto 400mbps but for months been getting 18.15mbps can't get through on the phone, spends more time down than up in South yorkshire ... can't wait for contract to end so I can go with a more stable provider

  • Lordlinley Mark linley (@Lordlinley) reported

    @virginmedia u clearly just as bad as the rest can u not read Iv been going through this for 3 days do u realise u have more upset customers than u have happy customers

  • GusAlston Gus Alston (he/him) (@GusAlston) reported

    @virginmedia Words and apologies aren't really enough. For an outage this bad compensation should be sorted immediately.

  • gylearab Kenny Dewar (@gylearab) reported

    @virginmedia We've had no WiFi since yesterday lunchtime. Customer Service and virtual technician unable to resolve but there's a local network problem (estimated to be fixed 18/02/22!) and they think we need a new hub but can't send one out. (1/2)

  • Embotaloonie emma mees (@Embotaloonie) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely fuming arranged a connection for tomorrow as we are moving only to be told there's been a mistake and its not being done until Wednesday when no one is available to be at the house what an absolute joke please help

  • lynnmckellar1 lynnmckellar (@lynnmckellar1) reported

    @virginmedia As a loyal customer of Virgin Media for 34 years (formerly Mercury) I have just rang to ask for an extension to my disconnection date of 23/2 due to new supplier issues but told by Shazel at VM this is not possible - We will be left with no services after this date

  • SaucyULTRA Jake  (@SaucyULTRA) reported

    @virginmedia Last night I reset the WiFi (via the button on the router) and now the WiFi Pods I've got doesn't work anymore, I unplugged and plugged in it like 5 times already and still don't work
