@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.

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 My Internet is COMPLETELY down for the 4th time in a month. OL16 area. Your service is worse than bloody talk talks. Internet speeds are also going downhill lately. ******* disgraceful company. I've no idea how you can take hardworking peoples money for such a shoddy service.

@virginmedia I did. 3 calls to be precise. There seems to be a tech issue on your end which keeps hanging up on callers....I can't afford to lose any more hours, so I've resorted to writing a letter instead. Thanks.

@virginmedia Can’t login to my online account, won’t recognise my username or password. I’d appreciate if someone called me. THIS IS MORE THAN FRUSTRATING, haven’t had a functioning line/network since Thursday, I’ve spent £35 calling that expensive number from other lines

@virginmedia So an issue has been logged now. It’s saying fix at 9:30pm. How do I claim compensation? As this is down I will have to use my phone as a hot spot which is very costly. I have a wired connection with Virgin so expect my internet to be running at all times

@virginmedia There’s apparently an issue with broadband in KT20 - However, I can’t seem to register the loss of service or get the status updates to my phone via the site - can you help with that ?

@virginmedia Sorry about this. I am slowed down as I have found that Sky owns Now and Now advertises during the Farage show on GB News. I cannot use a firm which directly supports arguments against the RNLI and by implication supports the drowning of refugees.
