Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Shiremoor, England

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

  • NETheatreGuide NETheatreGuide (@NETheatreGuide) reported from Ryton, England

    @virginmedia You offer the same package to new customers at nearly £20 cheaper so it isn't the lowest price possible, is it? Spoke 18 months ago about signal. Was told it would be looked at if I agreed to renew. Once renewed was told WiFi is not guaranteed so tough.

  • UnicornRunning Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia @VMHelpDesk Internet connection is intermittent in NE34, has been since at least Saturday. Connection drops at random. Have just restarted router again as I'm working from home & need to be online, no idea how long this will last. Not the only one having issues.

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

    Time for the @virginmedia renewal. They want to hike the price. We want a new reliable WiFi box which they promised but didn't deliver last time. To be honest @BT is looking attractive as they may improve the signal around the house.

  • vitosauras 🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    You lot need to sort yourselves out, Internet going down around midnight for the past few days yet you charge the earth @virginmedia

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia I’m signed in but I see no option to test the landline. I clicked on ‘fix landline’ but that just sent me back to the main menu page.

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia can you let me know if are there any problems with landline in the NE34 area? Can’t make or receive calls, not sure how long it’s been this way. Your status page says all services are fine. Thanks.

  • PatternThimble Ceeb 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇦 (@PatternThimble) reported from Cramlington, England

    @bt_uk you have 45 mins to meet the 10-12 appointment. That I took the day off for. Defo looks like I'm going to be a @virginmedia customer soon.

  • purplelime 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.

  • liamsholder91 liam sholder (@liamsholder91) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia why is phone network not working and plus can't phone people or text tryed restarting phone still. Nothing can't even ring you guys WTAF

  • KiddEdan Edan Kidd (@KiddEdan) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia two nights in a row the internet goes down, yous are a bag of shite

  • vitosauras 🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia It's not a problem at my end, and it's not just me affected. Have you really not noticed a flurry of people saying the same thing? I know people in different areas of the UK who have the same problems at the same times.

  • RobbyRSSRobot Robby #CelebrateNeighbours (@RobbyRSSRobot) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Any idea when my service will be back? Hub is flashing green. I'm working from home so need it urgently.

  • UnicornRunning Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Nothing reported when I checked before tweeting. Seems to have stabilised for now but must've dropped 15-20 times in the last 48h. No faults were reported on the site when my father-in-law had a complete loss of service a couple of months ago, but it was reported on the helpline.

  • UnicornRunning Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia Lots of people are complaining about this on the customer forums. We've had very little downtime since the separate router was connected, it's suddenly gone to pot and seems to be a general issue at the moment.

  • clairekitty12 claire🐱🐾🐾 (@clairekitty12) reported from Gateshead, England

    @virginmedia I would like to know how my broadband and tv are still broken after the outage ? It saying theres a connection issue on both broadband and tv . Tv error c139 ...i dont understand why my fault cant be logged as the origanal not being fixed

  • dowlo100 Dowlo (@dowlo100) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia my elderly mother has been trying to contact you for over 3 weeks now to cancel her sub as it has gone up £60 pm. She has been out on hold numerous times and cut off no help on chat etc. her only option now is to cancel the DD as she can’t afford this anymore… help

  • purplelime Sam (@purplelime) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia No, service page still says all services are fine but my landline still not working.

  • vitosauras 🦦 Helen (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    **** off Virgin Media, useless bollocks

  • NETheatreGuide 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.

  • UnicornRunning Paul Jukes A874036 (@UnicornRunning) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia The Hub is in modem mode connected to a separate wireless router as the Hub's WiFi has been poor since we got it, so technically it's a wired connection. Router's connection is lost when it drops so no devices can connect wirelessly. Has been stable for about 3 hours now.

  • a7powell andy (@a7powell) reported

    @virginmedia Generally unreliable broadband….WiFi pods drop out and reboot every hour for around 10 minutes….fed up of call customer services and being on hold for an hour to then get told to turn it off and back on again…..it’s not peppa pig!

  • JohnSpiers5 John Spiers 💙 (@JohnSpiers5) reported

    @virginmedia Only on Sky services on the TV, which I don't subscribe to. Service status says broadband is fine. I've rebooted the router, but if anything, it made it worse

  • fabiortsantos Fabio Dos Santos (@fabiortsantos) reported

    @virginmedia It depends. Virgin Wayleave has had no issue in sharing that info by email. Virgin Engineers had no issue calling me and texting to deal with this.

  • covrules Jamie Nairn (@covrules) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve rung several times, been waiting 25 mins + each time, get told they’ll ring me back once sorted - never do. Or like last time just cut me off and don’t ring me back. Getting really fed up now!

  • covrules Jamie Nairn (@covrules) reported

    @virginmedia But this issue has been going on for at least 10 days now - it’s not good enough!!!

  • DogsDanger Danger Dogs (@DogsDanger) reported

    @virginmedia is there a problem in Barnsley area can’t get the internet?

  • CraigHobbsPhot1 Craig Hobbs Photography (@CraigHobbsPhot1) reported

    @dwebberjourno @virginmedia They're shocking! Had nothing but issues and hours on the phone when we joined, months of wrong bills

  • gjohncole G. John Cole (@gjohncole) reported

    @virginmedia Crap signal in SE3 for a week. Virgin Whatsapp help finally told me signal 'unstable' due to recently fixed mast. This was 3 days ago. *When will it stabilize again?* Not good when separated from family in pandemic!

  • Benny__H Benny (@Benny__H) reported

    @virginmedia Thanks.i know what I get from o2 side but what benefits are there to me at home as a VM customer.
