Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Blyth, England

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

  • ThunderbirdWPC Tracey Ainsley (@ThunderbirdWPC) reported from Whickham, England

    @virginmedia The person that put me on hold said it looked like there was a problem in our area and tried to put me through to technical help but after music droning on for ages it just stopped. Have given up and watching a dvd instead

  • brtoon Brian Reid (@brtoon) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia @honestlyhelen I've had similar feelings, my bill has rocketed by £11 per month over the last few months for my TV only service as Virgin only offer discounts now for multi package deals, loyalty no longer rewarded it seems 🤔

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Longhirst, England

    @crokakaar @virginmedia Try calling them for help if you've got a spare few hours to waste.

  • sheeshkebab Ian K (@sheeshkebab) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I’m not after any account info though, so no need to go through security. Neither of my parents are very technical nor do I have access to the device showing the problem.

  • NuttyRichie Richard Payne (@NuttyRichie) reported from South Shields, England

    Another blackout on @virginmedia

  • minkewales minkewales (@minkewales) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @Dabooka @skybiggerpic @virginmedia It was my second attempt to be fair. First time they reduced the price rise to £1.50 per month, then I rang back a few days later to cancel. Found a better deal elsewhere but price was the driver for wanting to leave. Lovely @virginmedia agent was able to help!

  • LiamCottam Liam A Cottam (@LiamCottam) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Everyone was fine (eventually). The feedback is simple. If I can self serve setting up and managing my account I should be able to self serve cancel.

  • toniaadiexx T (@toniaadiexx) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia I’ve already spoken to someone on the phone who reset the network, but that didn’t work. I also tried re-starting everything and that also didn’t work, the box itself is very slow now also.

  • tenaka66 Paul 'The View' Carver (@tenaka66) reported from Cramlington, England

    @virginmedia poor service

  • LeslieBrown953 Leslie Brown (@LeslieBrown953) reported from Hebburn, England

    @virginmedia Disgusted at the speed of my broadband I am receiving. Signal very very slow. Paying for M50 broadband. Feel I am paying over the odds for what I am getting. But I already know your reply. Everything ok our side. Also received that the price is going up #ripoff

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

    @NatalieeeLoweee @virginmedia I had this issue. Got home from work to watch charity shield #MCILIV after avoiding the score and it was unwatchable because of the sound issues for me so I gave up. Will just watch #motd tonight instead. #nothappy

  • NuttyRichie Richard Payne (@NuttyRichie) reported from South Shields, England

    @MrChrisWynn @Simon21ne @virginmedia @nowtvhelp @SkyHelpTeam I managed one week before cancelling! Sky says I have so many devices that it’s slowing the hub down, in 2019 that’s piss poor

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Longhirst, England

    @virginmedia This is so, so bad.

  • Selwynsaint Selwyn St.Bernard🇹🇹🇬🇩 (@Selwynsaint) reported from Longbenton, England

    If @virginmedia offer you a 6 month free upgrade do not accept it. It is a way of locking you into a further contract. Poor service as always

  • ThunderbirdWPC Tracey Ainsley (@ThunderbirdWPC) reported from Whickham, England

    Been hanging on phone to @virginmedia for 19 mins and then got cut off! Was 54 mins the other week. Do you think we have time just to sit around! Problems with tv service! Same yesterday in our NE16 area

  • Tony_Hodson Tony Hodson #coach (@Tony_Hodson) reported from Ponteland, England

    @virginmedia 1. Why the neighbour would not have the same issues when the ‘issue’ is your automated phone system is beyond my comprehension! 2. It is not a neighbours responsibility to resolve a phone issue for the bill payer. 3. Through an internal contact I now have an engineer visit bkd.

  • jameshedges4 James Robert Hedges (@jameshedges4) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia I need someone to contact me immediately as I need to make a serious complaint about service. Completely ready to escalate to higher management as this incompetence of this company is a disgrace

  • kicka11 ⚕ ᑕᕼᖇIS ⚕ (@kicka11) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    @virginmedia Worst broadband and cable provider of all time.

  • GlocketCosplay ✾Bam Bam✾ (@GlocketCosplay) reported from Dunston, England

    Yeah great, I lose my TFT ranked after hard winning most of it because @virginmedia internet service goes down more consistently then most men.

  • philippat Philippa Taylor (@philippat) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @virginmedia good customer service , they asked if they could ring me back in 15 mins due to his PC not working , now 2.5 hours later and I am still waiting , tried ringing them back and been on hold for 28 mins now 😡

  • AlexWebTweets Alex 🇪🇺 (WFH) (@AlexWebTweets) reported

    Of all the ****** things Virgin Media does I’m kinda peeved the only thing Joe Lycett covered is the early cancellation fee. How about the over-selling and over-utilisation problems in many areas?

  • katieestevenson Katie (@katieestevenson) reported

    Hi @virginmedia Broadband issue locally CR5, you said it would be fixed by 3pm, then 6pm, then 10pm, then 12:05am. Now supposedly 10am but interestingly you don't say which day. Any chance of issue being fixed tomorrow morning? Communication has been poor.

  • k_ross69 Keith Ross 💉1👍 & 💉2👍 (@k_ross69) reported

    Probably not going to be on here that much for the forseeable. Thanks to @virginmedia and their messed up attempt to 'improve their network' I'm going to be left without Broadband access until at least Monday afternoon and likely much longer than that.

  • donnykebab1972 Kieron Griffin (@donnykebab1972) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson Internet down again.

  • JJbothwell JJ Bothwell (@JJbothwell) reported

    @virginmedia we had work done on the local area on Monday and as a result our WiFi is very weak. Photos/videos won’t load on social media, only one bar of signal always. I’ve done all the usual tricks (turning off and on again etc)

  • northernsoulan Northern Soul (@northernsoulan) reported

    @virginmedia The issue is much bigger than pressing reset. I was told it’s due to some s and r outage in the area? Can you investigate fully with the relevant team before responding? Thank you

  • Jordan85991604 Jordan (@Jordan85991604) reported

    @virginmedia please fix the internet

  • howlongchef neill reid (@howlongchef) reported

    @virginmedia what’s up with my service? tv has been choppy for the last 2 days messing with my recorded shows and internet was playing up today !

  • xMissWatson Emma Watson (@xMissWatson) reported

    @virginmedia Yeah there’s a fault and you keep pushing back the time to fix it.. Coming up to 3 days without WiFi/TV About to yeet my router out the window 🙃

  • BoxingFan8080 A.G (@BoxingFan8080) reported

    @virginmedia paying for the highest package and all I get is drop outs and no service, its a disgrace.
