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

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia After an hour in a chat session, which involved factory reset of hub, the problem persists. Agent then goes and checks to advise a fault in my area - estimated fix this evening. Wondering if I am now back into the old fortnightly failure cycle..

  • DNhunter85 Dave Hunter (@DNhunter85) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia shocking customer service

  • Xxx_Rhi_xxX Rhi (@Xxx_Rhi_xxX) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia no signal on mobile in Birmingham. Cant make calls, text or use data! Also not seen the 'reimbursement' from the last disaster #sortitout

  • EvanJoanette Evan Joanette (@EvanJoanette) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Have to assume the cold-calling up-selling team aren't aware when customers have canceled their cable TV just a few months ago with notes to say they're only watching Netflix and want to pay less than £30. I try not to be rude, but seems a bit unfair on the team.

  • LovesBunnys 🐰 Louise Owen 🐇 (@LovesBunnys) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Hi i last contacted you guys on the 27th May 2019 and i still have had ni response from you guys about a complaint i put in last month could you please look into this matter for me please. Mrs Dews

  • djchrisr Chris Roberts (@djchrisr) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia 17th May I sent my complaint. It's getting very close....

  • EgglestonMathew Mat 🏳️‍🌈 (@EgglestonMathew) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nope no difference . Usually do this 3 times a day and normally solves the problem

  • unit_1974 🐺Wolfish (@unit_1974) reported from Birmingham, England

    Starting to have all the same Connectivity problems with @virginmedia as before even now we have their “best” hub. Fed up of having connectivity issues with our supposedly connected home. One minute it works, the next it stops for no reason. All settings checked and correct.

  • MrASingh Amrit Singh (@MrASingh) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hey, what’s going on with your internet! It’s not working and it crashed one of my live streams I was on. Your status page is also down too!

  • josh_moreton Josh Moreton (@josh_moreton) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia any news on what the issue is in west Birmingham, had no phone, internet or TV for 19 hours now. Fed up of ringing the automated customer service number.

  • josh_moreton Josh Moreton (@josh_moreton) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes the whole service is down and I’ve already registered the faults over the phone and I’ve used the app to get text updates. But the resolve time keeps changing and there no description to the fault itself.

  • 6ft3Queen ✮。 👑🖤 𝟨𝒻𝓉𝟥𝒬𝓊𝑒𝑒𝓃 🖤👑✮。 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@6ft3Queen) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia down again 😤

  • markshawnwo mark shaw (@markshawnwo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia 45 mins and counting been transferred 2 times told different things each time what is wrong with your customer service

  • MarkMarky222 Mark (@MarkMarky222) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia absolutely disgusted with Virgin media’s service and customer service. Bill jumps up £20 form last month and been on the phone trying to speak to someone about it for 52 minutes now. Roll on July 12th when my contract finishes.

  • notdodgy Roger Leitch (@notdodgy) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Chat session indicates there is still a fault, with an estimated fix of the 26th. So basically I can expect very poor broadband for over a week.

  • LovesBunnys 🐰 Louise Owen 🐇 (@LovesBunnys) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Thanks i will be talking to them regarding the matter, as i don't feel virgin listened to me or took my complaint seriously.

  • djchrisr Chris Roberts (@djchrisr) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I've already tried calling. The agent wouldn't accept what I was saying and basically called me a liar so I tweeted you & you advised me to file a complaint on the website to which I've received no response at all. I feel my only chance of a result is to take it to CISAS.

  • tonymartin82211 tonymartin (@tonymartin82211) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia is there anyway that I can stop this infernal Tivo box recording stuff on my suggestions that I would never dream of watching, it's doing my loaf in.

  • markshawnwo mark shaw (@markshawnwo) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It appears there are now reported issues in the area, but the internet is back working for us now. Thanks anyways

  • WrastlingGuy TheWrastlingGuy (@WrastlingGuy) reported

    @virginmedia just got ANOTHER call from your call centre, I’ve asked many times to be taken off your call list, yet every week I get a call trying to sell so something. I asked to make a complaint and the women said she will note it and hung up the phone. 0800 052 1251. Contactme

  • shxmmss Maya (@shxmmss) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve been complaining about the same problem for a month now and your team has sent me on a goose chase for a fault on your system. This should not be my problem and I am appalled by your services. IM TIRED sigh.

  • ShahuMaheshwar maheshwar shahu (@ShahuMaheshwar) reported

    @virginmedia - No internet since 5 days. Customer Service is providing new date every time .

  • Misssripper Lauren (@Misssripper) reported

    @virginmedia They world my book a technician in as they couldn’t provide a ‘password’ or code or whatever is needed. So nothing has been actioned for a resolution

  • sunnym321 SUNNY M (@sunnym321) reported

    @virginmedia Total shambles. I've done everything I could to help you help me. Twice been told a supervisor will call. Still nothing. I have been told the earliest install date is 31st Dec which is a joke. And NOTHING can be done to prioritise this regardless of how bad the service has been.

  • FannyIngabout Janey (@FannyIngabout) reported

    @jonisnotjohn @EggsyGLC @virginmedia And also counterproductive, as it would detract and take resource away from the real issue which is their shocking customer service.

  • Misssripper Lauren (@Misssripper) reported

    @virginmedia They wouldn’t book in a technician as they couldn’t provide a password, either it’s never been set up or they have never used it, so nothing has been resolved

  • RichardByers78 Richard Byers (@RichardByers78) reported

    @virginmedia Too difficult to explain and too long, the person didn’t get I wanted to cancel instead kept going on a about better deals. I had to give up again

  • CharlesRoskilly Charles Roskilly (@CharlesRoskilly) reported

    @virginmedia Hi PZ, It says fix will be 4pm today. But yesterday it said 4pm Mon and the day before that it said midnight Sun. So not holding much hope. I've read the info about the compensation scheme but it isn't clear. If I reported loss of service at 10pm Sat, when will I get comp?
