Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Skelton and Brotton and nearby locations:

  • charliemurgo Charlie Murgatroyd (@charliemurgo) reported from Guisborough, England

    @virginmedia thanks once again for no phone coverage while abroad after assuring me this time it would work. Pile of crap!

  • Benjiffy Benjamin Clarkson (@Benjiffy) reported from Stainton and Thornton, England

    So @virginmedia offer 3x the broadband speed for new customers for the same price I've paid for a year, but offer me the same bundle I've had for a year for £5 more, or an extra £23 for the new customer one. Next company to put fibre in my area has a new customer waiting.

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @UberGeekFanboy @virginmedia This must be the exception not the rule. My own experience is dreadful. Poor Cust service. Shameless hike in fees for no benefit. Several friends have had to leave as they didn’t get what they were promised. 3 words spring to mind. POT, KETTLE & BLACK.

  • Danielson_1991 Daniel Thompson (@Danielson_1991) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia Yeah, appears there's issues with all services until at least 1255 this afternoon

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia JGS - You can do nothing. You have no access to my account as you often say. You will tell me to call CS on 789 and therein starts the problem. They offer service they can’t or won’t deliver. They are rude. Other than that, read my comments & tweets for detail.

  • Emfozz Emma (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia I've already filled the form out online for a complaint

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia - your poor service never ceases to amaze me. I’ve received notice today advising my plan is ending and I’ll be moved to a new one. Extra £9 for 1Gb extra data & 1000 more minutes when I don’t use what I get now. I will use the get out clause. #AwfulCompany

  • GreigDarby Greig Darby (@GreigDarby) reported from Hartlepool, England

    @virginmedia are there any known issues in my area (Hartlepool) currently no Internet. I've tried resets and the broadband check but it says no issues.

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @nickkingone @virginmedia The @virginmedia customer service and product is definitely the joke

  • Emfozz Emma (@Emfozz) reported from Middlesbrough, England

    @virginmedia I asked for extension on bill on the 13th until the 27th, was told that was sorted, woke up this morning and been cut off, advisor told me the notes say I was told until the 21st which I wasnt & opened and closed my complaint because nothing else will be done

  • Formally_Gill Just Gill (@Formally_Gill) reported from New Marske, England

    @virginmedia Complaint has been raised as the billing team is rude and I have been lied to. They have said I only get the credit if it is done online, this is not what I was told on the telephone. Misleading tactics used to sell! Not happy, if not resolved both accounts will be cancelled!

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @lostinpost @virginmedia @virginmedia bad service never ceases to amaze. Got letter to say mobile plan is ending and I’ll be moved to new one. Extra £9 for 1Gb extra data & 1000 more mins when I don’t use what I get now. CS shocking too. I’m out. Bye Bye. #AwfulCompany @bt outperforms you with everything

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @hickeydave1 I’m no longer interested in your complaints code, after all you weren’t interested in my complaint when it occurred. I’ve left and see no further satisfaction to be gained from your process. I will get huge satisfaction from telling anyone who will listen how poor @virginmedia is

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @lostinpost DC - perhaps you or your manager should call the CS team on 789 as a mystery customer. You might begin to understand what a liability to the @virginmedia organisation they are.

  • chrisrenahan Chris Renahan (@chrisrenahan) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    On hold to @virginmedia for 15 minutes only to receive a recorded message to say they are too busy and to call back tomorrow morning. Customer service at its best!! 😡

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @BigbadJohnny34 This must be the exception not the rule. My own experience is dreadful. Poor Cust service. Shameless hike in fees for no benefit. Several friends have had to leave as they didn’t get what they were promised. 3 words spring to mind. POT, KETTLE & BLACK.

  • tastyparmo tastyparmo (@tastyparmo) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia very disappointed in the mobile outage today. I’ve actually got on with doing some work in the office instead of pissing about on my phone. It’s really not on.

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @liamgreene Good luck with @virginmedia customer services. Their phone lines to that dept are about as reliable as their broadband service. #DropsAllTheTime #AwfulService

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @virginmedia @BT I tried. It was quite clear that you see no problem in putting my bill up by 325% I gave numerous chances to fix it, you just weren’t interested and now MY only interest is to tell as many people that will listen how bad @virginmedia is. I’ve already left so no going back now.

  • davebakey David Bakewell (@davebakey) reported from Nunthorpe, England

    @GameOver0197 @virginmedia @bt_uk This must be the exception not the rule. My own experience is dreadful. Poor Cust service. Shameless hike in fees for no benefit. Several friends have had to leave as they didn’t get what they were promised. 3 words spring to mind. POT, KETTLE & BLACK.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • _dannygreen Danny Green (@_dannygreen) reported

    @virginmedia broadband down in PO5 in Portsmouth. Your own status check service doesn't even seem to work either. What's going on.

  • rachee_lou Rachel (@rachee_lou) reported

    @virginmedia No I haven't, I will do that but i shouldnt have to resubmit my 3 complaints - can you just fix the website please?

  • PC75UK Paul Cooke (@PC75UK) reported

    @virginmedia I renewed for 1gb broadband that is worse than the slow speed. I also agreed £49.50 and you gave me free SIM card (which I won’t be using but that was the deal) I now see you are charging me £49.50 on one DD and £10 for o2 on another DD. The sim was meant to be free.

  • avenger_grey Jedi Avenger 🖤✊🏿🏳️‍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦♿💛 (@avenger_grey) reported

    @virginmedia WiFi constantly drops, at least once a day. I'm paying you nearly £70 a month for high speed but it never gets any where near it. I'm paying for a service I'm not getting. Can't get through to tech support.

  • Mike87794888 Smiley Mike (@Mike87794888) reported

    Can someone from Virgin Media please contact me. My contract is about to rise astronomically and I want to cancel my renewal. I can't get hold of anyone via the website. Cheers!

  • Ronkabet Ronkabet (@Ronkabet) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, usual issue i get every year where our wifi stops working properly. Can you send a new router please. I have rebooted/checked firmware and changed channels. It's a known issue. What details do you need?

  • iTechPro2012 Gareth Sibthorpe (@iTechPro2012) reported

    @virginmedia Ok that’s fine, i’ll give your customer services another call and explain i’ve spoken to you about it.

  • RodriguezMayn J Rodriguez (@RodriguezMayn) reported

    @virginmedia After you announced the fault. You scheduled it for today as the problem was meant to be fixed yesterday. Apparently it's going to be fixed on the 19th now

  • radioasahartz Chris Bolus (Radio Asahartz) (@radioasahartz) reported

    @andyfinlay07 @virginmedia Trouble is, no other provider can even match that half speed in this area. #rockandahardplace

  • Jessica42437038 Jessica (@Jessica42437038) reported

    @virginmedia Can someone PLEASE tell me how to get help from this SHOCKING service as a new customer it’s DISGUSTING
