Anyone in North Tyneside struggling with @virginmedia?? Or is it just me? Keep losing signal and the TiVo box keeps rebooting. Had to abandon the National League final and now Gillian Anderson getting fruit in Room 203 of the Hilton Hotel Belstaff ...

@virginmedia Come on Virgin, give us some feedback. What's the issue with the WiFi in the NE10 8WH area. Mine seems to have gone off completely now. Loads of people in the area complaining of same issues all across social media.

Can anyone at @virginmedia virgin media tell me why the internet drops out every time it rains? The technicians only want to diagnose a fault on the line to the house and they never seem to be out when it's also raining. It's very frustrating.

@virginmedia I'm trying to contact you and it's actually impossible to get any help. Your WhatsApp "help" isn't fit for purpose and they're rude. I've just spent 15 mins on the phone, pressing a million numbers, had to repeat it all and finally, I was informed I'd be put through

@virginmedia Have spoke to them on that number more times than I can count now. If I’m lucky enough to get through, that call centre will tell me that it’s outta their control & theyll send an email to the outside contractors. Will tell me they’ll call me back to let update me, but never will
