Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Gateshead, England
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Gateshead and nearby locations:
-
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.
-
Maxine Tennet (@maxinetennet74) reported from Walker Gate, EnglandWhat will it take for @virginmedia to actually sort out an account after a bereavement??? 3 months later, endless calls and empty promises. Continued anxiety and distress for an elderly woman is not the bereavement service I’d expect. Appalling.
-
Rockcliffe Files (@RockcliffeFiles) reported from Whitley Bay, EnglandHello @BarclaysUK, phoned you for ten successive days and it’s an hour long queue, been into branch, you can’t sort the issue, tried chat via the app, you don’t talk mortgages on the app. You are beginning to reach peak Virgin Media for incompetence, I’m sorry, this is appalling.
-
Steph. (@stephwales_) reported from Gateshead, England@virginmedia everything else is working except kids channels 712 to 717, W02 error. No other channel issues or broadband, done all the standard resets, unplugged at mains etc. Do I need to call to have this resolved? TV guide just says 'to be announced' Everything else is fine.

JOP (@40yearsofhurt) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England@Magpie24_7 Fitness levels of Virgin Media are poor.
-
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
-
Steve Walls (@StevieWalls) reported from Chester-le-Street, England“You don’t need to be there, we can do the cable work outside no problem” That translated into a card through the door saying “Sorry we missed you” and the work not being done. Don’t really understand that one @virginmedia
-
liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, EnglandAin't happy with @virginmedia cancelled the TV months ago and yous are still charging me for it only just noticed just checking on the bill online now this isn't the first its the second wtf man really i have phone and broadband I'm want out keep the money you've taken 🤬

-
Pete Irving (@ZicoPete) reported from Sunderland, England@virginmedia No, tried 3 times on hold for 20 minutes then cut off by agents without saying a word. After checking other responses I can see this has been the issue either other customers.
-
Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia No help needed, thanks - just praising the deal I was given last night 🙌
-
Mr Smoggie (@PaulCraig24) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia Unfortunately not. The issue is she doesn’t receive any communication from Virgin apart from a monthly text with the link to her account. As she has no password etc she can’t access it
-
Victoria barry (@VictoriaBarry82) reported from Sunderland, England@virginmedia Yes spoke to a member of the team, we have been having issues with our wifi. She offered to send another booster & cable out free off charge. Available on our contract. I’ve just received email to say my payments are going up to £60!!
-
Paul fletcher (@P25_Fletch) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia You’s really do make it almost impossible to cancel. I’ve called 5 times over 3 days. Either don’t get transferred or get cut off. Looks like I’ll try by writing a letter….
-
Alvin TX Fernandez (@allymcgeorge) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia hi I need to cancel an engineer appointment but clearly you've made this difficult to do. Any thoughts?
-
LadyDi (@didixon74) reported from Blyth, England@virginmedia In October agreed new contract, came to install last week got new router and have since cancelled the packages that was agreed. I am now been charged more and getting less services. Tried to resolve last week over the phone & not no further forward so just want to cancel now.
-
Dawn knight (@Dawnletsfaceit) reported from Consett, England@virginmedia new customer ...2 engineer No Shows !! Not a great start. Try again for Wednesday. Let's hope they show this time. In the meantime please stop sending me emails to get me up and running.....that's the whole reason I need an engineer 😡

Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England@virginmedia I didn’t get the opportunity to call yesterday, but I noticed last night that it’s working again. There was nothing mentioned on service page (not unusual) but there must’ve been a fault that was eventually fixed.
-
Karl Ward (@Look_North) reported from Whitley Bay, England@virginmedia I dread clicking that link. I fear being sucked down the rabbit hole of Ai customer service bots where I eventually give up until I'm exasperated by the next monthly bill increase.

calmdown (@MJNorman5) reported@gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia Virgin/Sky. Two sides of the same coin. Be prepared to cancel when negotiating.
-
Chariots Of Fire (@chariots85) reported@gblondon1 @skytv @virginmedia I made the move at the start of the year. Despite a 1GB BB connection, the WiFi across the house is terrible (and I have 2 boosters!)

catherineleech (@poppyandoscar) reported@virginmedia what an awful company. Someone I know is selling their house. Not gone through yet while they were out you came and drilled holes in their house and attached cable to the neighbours fence. Went when told to get off their property but you turned up again today.
