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

  • Tony_Hodson Tony Hodson #coach (@Tony_Hodson) reported from Ponteland, England

    @virginmedia 1. Why the neighbour would not have the same issues when the ‘issue’ is your automated phone system is beyond my comprehension! 2. It is not a neighbours responsibility to resolve a phone issue for the bill payer. 3. Through an internal contact I now have an engineer visit bkd.

  • fredspoon pipkins (@fredspoon) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @DMcCSE17 @virginmedia All phone signal in London is terrible including public Wi-fi. I love when I come back to north east for a decent signal and decent Wi-fi speed :)

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

    @NatalieeeLoweee @virginmedia I had this issue. Got home from work to watch charity shield #MCILIV after avoiding the score and it was unwatchable because of the sound issues for me so I gave up. Will just watch #motd tonight instead. #nothappy

  • Jonnycushlow Jonathan Cushlow (@Jonnycushlow) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia your broadband is garbage. Forever puttin the price up and your service gets worse #sky incoming

  • tenaka66 Paul 'The View' Carver (@tenaka66) reported from Cramlington, England

    @virginmedia poor service

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Media service. I waited 30 mins to speak to someone, after selecting an electronic option to cancel. "I'm not authorised to cancel". Now back on hold. Virgin has the worst customer service of any company I've interacted with. It's insane.

  • ThunderbirdWPC Tracey Ainsley (@ThunderbirdWPC) reported from Whickham, England

    @virginmedia Tried to pm you but won’t let me. Someone coming Wednesday now to sort problem

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

    @virginmedia Media. I ditched the TV part of the bundle years ago, but am still currently paying £50.99 p/m for 150mb broadband and a phone we never use. Come September, when you increase it by another £3.50 it’ll have gone from £37 in Dec 16 to £54.49 - A ridiculous 47% INCREASE......

  • Janthebestmam Janice (@Janthebestmam) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia its for my broad band service

  • LiamCottam Liam A Cottam (@LiamCottam) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Everyone was fine (eventually). The feedback is simple. If I can self serve setting up and managing my account I should be able to self serve cancel.

  • sheeshkebab Ian K (@sheeshkebab) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I’m not after any account info though, so no need to go through security. Neither of my parents are very technical nor do I have access to the device showing the problem.

  • Barrymore_Jones Michael Jones (@Barrymore_Jones) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia I need help

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Worst customer service I've ever encountered. On multiple occasions over several years. Rudeness and lack of knowledge being the main issues, along with the usual very long hold times.

  • toniaadiexx T (@toniaadiexx) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I’ve already spoken to someone on the phone who reset the network, but that didn’t work. I also tried re-starting everything and that also didn’t work, the box itself is very slow now also.

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

    @virginmedia Thanks for your help with this, but can you please refrain from using foreign call centres; it is incredibly frustrating trying to explain to someone that you’re unhappy about your bill, who interprets this as a technical problem.......

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Disgusted at the speed of my broadband I am receiving. Signal very very slow. Paying for M50 broadband. Feel I am paying over the odds for what I am getting. But I already know your reply. Everything ok our side. Also received that the price is going up #ripoff

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia can you please advise how I can easily cancel my service ASAP. It's (deliberately) impossible to contact your company by phone.

  • VictoriaBarry82 Vicki barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England

    @virginmedia hi can someone help me with my broadband

  • philippat Philippa Taylor (@philippat) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia good customer service , they asked if they could ring me back in 15 mins due to his PC not working , now 2.5 hours later and I am still waiting , tried ringing them back and been on hold for 28 mins now 😡

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

    @virginmedia This has never been suggested before; you’ve been quite happy just to take the money and then hit me with an annual increase way above inflation. I’ve spoken to customer services on a couple of times in the last couple of months, and the offers have been quite frankly insulting.

  • SAHusshen Abu Ayaan (@SAHusshen) reported

    @mahmudhassan_ @virginmedia @virginmedia fix it, it's not very appealing for those signing or considering contracts ..

  • 007Scouse Scouse 007 (@007Scouse) reported

    @virginmedia still trying to get things sorted. We've now been trying for FOUR HOURS and got no further. Absolutely disgusting customer service. #virginmedia #shockingservice @richardbranson

  • DavidColeman33 David Coleman (@DavidColeman33) reported

    @virginmedia You're talking about "paying" the bills. That's not the problem. As I said, the bill needs to have the company name on there. BT can do that no problem. So I either stay with VM and pay my own bills, or move to BT and have bills paid by the company. No choice really!

  • EcMx 𝕝𝕚𝕫𝕫𝕚𝕖🌙✨ (@EcMx) reported

    @virginmedia Hi I am looking to book an engineer for my fathers landline. It is not working and can’t find a way to do this online. He cannot phone you as he has no phone and I can’t visit him due to being in isolation atm. Can I book an engineer in for him through this?

  • 8_Bea_8 Bea (@8_Bea_8) reported

    Absolutely appalling customer service from @virginmedia. They've started my elderly fathers contract before the service is available and now expect him to wait a month without internet. I'll be cancelling it and not using @Virgin again for broadband.

  • catherine_99 catherine (@catherine_99) reported

    @virginmedia I have and I've checked it. Switched it off and on again still not working unless I restart my phone

  • wootang2k9 jordan wootton (@wootang2k9) reported

    @virginmedia so I've logged into #myvirgin and its stating that I've left virgin now there's a thing here As I haven't left virgin at all so do me a favour and help me sort it out please thanks

  • boba_solo BobaSolo (@boba_solo) reported

    @virginmedia The same issues I keep calling for the past year or so. When I'm gaming at night,10pm onwards, using the ethernet, not wireless, I usually get disconnected from the Internet and can not game. Very annoying. Noticed that it also disconnects my phone from the wireless network.

  • mozrover Andrew Morrison (@mozrover) reported

    @virginmedia broadbands been off all day & last night,says there trying to fix fault but estimated time for fix has been & gone any ideas?

  • KatherineMcKeen kat (@KatherineMcKeen) reported

    I actually hate @virginmedia I’ve had no tv or internet for 10 days! Had a technician out Thursday and had a repull this morning and I still don’t have internet! The call centres are ****! I literally hate life right now! I just want to watch the football 😩
