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

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia My daughter had to make 2 phone calls to your customer service department to resolve a problem with her new TV box in November last year. She was almost 2 hours on the phone & then an engineer visit solved the problem. Engineer admitted the setup instructions were at fault.

  • henry_1664 Andrew Grove (@henry_1664) reported from Birmingham, England

    Can anyone tell me how you get @virginmedia to respond to and deal with complaints? I am at the end of my tether with them! I have raised 4 complaints now and they have unsatisfactorily responded to 1 which I called back about to keep the complaint open only for them to close...

  • NannieHelen Helen Croft (@NannieHelen) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia It’s the WIFi and what can you do about it? I’ve been a customer for many many years and this issue is causing aggravation. Surely I should expect uninterrupted service all day every day. It’s not cheap either is it??

  • richiebunn Dickie B (@richiebunn) reported from West Bromwich, England

    The award for the worst ever customer service goes to @virginmedia over an hours wait to get through.

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia No they asked me to do some checks which I did then never got a response again. This has been going on weeks now.

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @davesumnersmith @virginmedia I have realised that talking to Twitter teams is of limited value. The responses are scripted and when they’re painted into a corner, they just stop responding. Customer Service has become a contradiction in terms. My daughter has had similar experiences with Virgin Media.

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It was a five minute fix, but she lost one month of TV access as a result. She’s a nurse so arranging a daytime appointment took a while because of her work patterns. It’s her first home of her own and I felt she had been treated in a less than respectable manner.

  • leeharris85 lee harris (@leeharris85) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia customer service as good as ever told I’m being put through to another team.... then cut off

  • MartinClarke165 Martin Clarke (@MartinClarke165) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No service still. Outrageous. No customer support. Online mths all day. Great advert for Virgin. The most reliable broadband provider #poorservice

  • Dom_Priest94 DOM PRIEST (@Dom_Priest94) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia chronic customer service !

  • RoyKyffin Roy Kyffin (@RoyKyffin) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why has my mobile signal strength dropped now Virgin Mobile is piggybacking off Vodafone? Used to be full strength when you used EE.

  • ThatNeilFleming neil fleming (@ThatNeilFleming) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia take a look at the replies to your Facebook ads. Virtually every comment the same patchy broadband connection and absolute dog **** customer service

  • benavfcfranklin Ben Franklin. (@benavfcfranklin) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes this was after I reset. I have been trying a hub reset regularly and it doesn’t help. How do I check the package I am on? Im not sure.

  • ThatNeilFleming neil fleming (@ThatNeilFleming) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia That might require quite an extensive overall of your infrastructure and servers however you could maybe start by answering the telephone - you are a telecoms company. Or does customer service fly out the window once the direct debits are set up?

  • DorisLee1966 Judy Lee (@DorisLee1966) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia The first agent was so rude the second very helpful said she hoped she had sorted the dates of my contract and the bill. But as yet the bill for March hasn’t changed l have no idea what is happening with the complaints. I’m so worn down by it all.

  • DorisLee1966 Judy Lee (@DorisLee1966) reported from Dudley, England

    @theMrsH89 @virginmedia l upgraded my internet with Virgin and it’s dreadful. The process still isn’t sorted out lm being charged incorrectly and it won’t be put right until complaints sort it out. I’m still waiting for complaints the service for broadband and the customer is poor and very stressful

  • psicorps2000 David H-T 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇳🇴🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@psicorps2000) reported from Solihull, England

    Anybody in B37 with a @virginmedia box having problems with their boxes rebooting? Ours has done it twice without warning this evening.

  • leeharris85 lee harris (@leeharris85) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried calling got through being on hold for 30 minutes waiting to speak to a manager as I’ve been told I need to pay for something others have free and been cut out again!!!

  • mercede72928186 Mercedes Hodson 👷🏻‍♂️💁🏼‍♀️ (@mercede72928186) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @Carol74438555 I was having issues with Virgin media too but they are sending me an updated box out so hopefully it will be ok then

  • DorisLee1966 Judy Lee (@DorisLee1966) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I’ve called and called l’ve used the chat line numerous times. A agent opened a complaint in early feb l received a letter saying all sorted when it wasn’t there are 2 complaints outstanding and my accounts are still wrong.

  • Ms_Cherry_B 🇬🇩 Elle-Ay 💕 (@Ms_Cherry_B) reported

    There are plenty of companies and organisations that I cannot stand; but it’s safe to say they the buffoons I HATE with the most venom, is @hackneycouncil! They are, without a doubt, shockingly **** at everything!!!!! THE WORST; and I’ve dealt with Virgin media internet

  • jasminefaife jasmine (@jasminefaife) reported

    @virginmedia Was told by customer service on WhatsAppI’d receive a call from the Fields Team within 5 days. This was on Saturday so am hoping I hear from them today as so far unsurprisingly I’ve heard nothing

  • MAGiK_VAL DSY MAGiK (@MAGiK_VAL) reported

    @chlo_xii Everytime i hear someone has **** internet from uk or issues i hear virgin media 💀

  • saffawayne Wayne (@saffawayne) reported

    @virginmedia I have no idea. That's how clueless the operator was. All I know is she said I was paying £29 a month for wkend calls. I never received a phone or a sim card ever. Why would I when I have a cell contract with unlimited free minutes!

  • jasminefaife jasmine (@jasminefaife) reported

    @virginmedia I have a raised a complaint - but was told the complaint won’t be resolved until the installation has been completed, so the complaint is totally redundant given that it’s about the severely delayed installation!

  • YNDesire_ 31 (@YNDesire_) reported

    Why is the ping soo **** on virgin media? 525down 42up and its ****. My **** sky net was better

  • twitershit Liam (@twitershit) reported

    @virginmedia Awful company, never got above 5mb/s speed in almost 2yrs

  • NCWellFit Neil Crawford (@NCWellFit) reported

    @virginmedia Another customer feedback email. Why do you send these when clearly you couldn’t care less when I provide a less than desirable response! Zero customer service.

  • Aussiedax Dax 🔜 Gdakon (@Aussiedax) reported

    @virginmedia There's something wrong with your network which is effecting Vrchat, all virgin media users in the UK will disconnect at the same time. This desperately needs investigating as this also seems to be effecting other games such as Elden ring and Eve online

  • heyimdaf Daf (he/him) (@heyimdaf) reported

    @virginmedia I just checked, I had a 41 minute phone call with you all to cancel on 20/1/22 @virginmedia, so a Feb cutoff date is likely.
