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

  • Shaunelious Shaun Calvert (@Shaunelious) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Or asking what outcome they want. Anyway, not long after I get a text saying a technician is coming out that I haven’t agreed to and if I’m not home when they come it’ll cost £25. So I have to call up to cancel that and was then told I can’t add to my complaint….

  • modelnicola Nicola (@modelnicola) reported from Peterlee, England

    @VirginMediaCorp @virginmedia paperwork completed by my other half for court. Not a single follow up from Virgin. Please RT what a shambles this company and their contractors are. Accepted fault for damage at the time but won't pay up for repairs. Spread the word. Retweet this!

  • mark770 Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia how can you justify levying £25.00 charges if fail to cancel a "now resolved" tech visit but you fail to reciprocate the gesture when YOU cancel a visit and fail to notify the customer with the cancellation being due to an "outage" at your end? Shambolic&insulting

  • AndreaAndymac andrea mcdonald (@AndreaAndymac) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia as per usual the red button not working AGAIN the amount I pay you each month should provide me with a much much better service than this. What are you doing??????

  • mark770 Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia An area outage with something your end caused my issue (no bband) to flag as being resolved at your end. That was not the case in slightest (still without bband) and the tech appt this morning being cancelled but no notification

  • Shaunelious Shaun Calvert (@Shaunelious) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve got 16 months left on my current contract but I’d like to cancel it as I have good reason

  • Shaunelious Shaun Calvert (@Shaunelious) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia Red button for virgin, which I know isn’t true as I’ve used it before. I asked to raise complaints several times to which they just ignored before eventually saying they would raise one. He then said it was raised. Never known a complaint raised without someone describing it…

  • mark001282 Mark Armstrong (@mark001282) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    @virginmedia It's been going on for 8 weeks. I'm going to document this all and put it online for everyone to see how poor you have been. It's so stressful and you are doing nothing to help

  • mark770 Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia My issue is bband been down since Thursday night and Friday a tech visit for this morning between 8 and 12. Due to an outage at your end, the visit was incorrectly cancelled as your records showed as "now fixed". We didn't find this until contacting yourselves after 12 today

  • gaznolan Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia any chance we'll get reimbursed for the service outage in the TS20 postcode? 2 days we've had a fault

  • AlanHewitt10 Big Al H (@AlanHewitt10) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia how do you have the front to increase my bills by nearly 20 percent and yet your service has been awful lately. In the morning my tv broadband and landline is going. And my mobile will not be renewed.

  • benrelton ben (@benrelton) reported from Hartlepool, England

    Broadband is down in our area, but can’t register loss of service on the website - just won’t work. Any ideas? @virginmedia

  • gaznolan Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia great service NOT! Called yesterday to disconnect and was blatantly given incorrect information by the chat agent. Had a call today from another retention agent asking how he could resolve the issues so I explained what happened. (1/2)

  • ajtheladplummy Adam (@ajtheladplummy) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia Advertises the best fastest and most reliable internet you can get but all you get is buffering. Tried to call support team all you get is automated options, please select your option blah blah and all you get is we will send you a link. I want to speak to a human!

  • beck5ter Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    Question?? how long before Virgin Media shuts down your email if you leave them?? @VirginMediaCorp

  • gaznolan Gary Nolan (@gaznolan) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia fully and reasonably, the agent response was "oh okay" and put the phone down. How do I make a formal complaint about the atrocious service you guys offer? (2/2)

  • mark770 Mark Walker (@mark770) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @virginmedia JS, have you taken the time to read the thread through? It would appear not as your previous colleague intimated that you would be looking at auto-comp issue when I notified you that the issue had been resolved though you mentioned nothing about that.

  • WheezyRider44 Matt Greenfield-Westcott (@WheezyRider44) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia But this has gone on for months, not days or weeks. It can't be that difficult to identify the problem and find a solution.

  • beck5ter Jason N Beck (@beck5ter) reported from Stockton-on-Tees, England

    @beardedian @VirginMediaCorp Then again I wouldn't expect anything less from Virgin Media. The only thing that is stopping me leaving them is losing my emails. Going to look into an alternative solution to that problem tomorrow

  • Shaunelious Shaun Calvert (@Shaunelious) reported from Redcar, England

    @virginmedia I’ve cancelled the visit but why should I have to call back in the first place to cancel a visit I didn’t agree to? I wanted it adding to my initial complaint or raising separately but no one was interested. Cancel my contract

  • vanhaddock Mark Gallacher (@vanhaddock) reported

    @virginmedia this boxing feed is very poor. £26 and cutting out all the time. Seems a widespread issue.

  • ayatesy90 Andrew Yates (@ayatesy90) reported

    @virginmedia the signal on the £25 boxing is dreadful, I’ll contact you for my refund tomorrow!

  • Ayew_SZN Ethan (@Ayew_SZN) reported

    Fix the Joshua PPV you ***** @virginmedia

  • humphump7 Andy Humpo (@humphump7) reported

    @virginmedia live coverage of tonight’s boxing is very poor quality.... pixelated & freezing. Sort it out soon please.

  • N77DRU Andrew Blake (@N77DRU) reported

    @Gingerbrazilian I brought via @virginmedia and it’s terrible, it scrambles and now starting to completely cut out! Did you order via a @SkyUK box or something else?

  • Top_Cat2 Donnie (@Top_Cat2) reported

    @virginmedia absolutely horrific service for this PPV. Constant buffering, pixelated screen, screen freezing and now just dropping altogether.

  • Joekane70 Joekane (@Joekane70) reported

    For £25.95 I'm now staring at a black screen. @virginmedia knew of the problem when they took the money but never said a thing. That's disgraceful. I've now paid for something that's crap to view. Class outfit.
