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

  • omarqureshi Omar Qureshi (@omarqureshi) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia What's the procedure if this isn't rectified? It's not a unusual request, yet I'm around 10 days without phone service.

  • ADaveWard David Ward (@ADaveWard) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    Thanks for the reply @virginmedia but in your instructions following your system check on your site it states you will be sending a signal to my hub to improve something. Nowhere does it date for me to do a pinhole reset. So which is correct because you need to correct something

  • mavMclovin77 STEEEB (@mavMclovin77) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia been very poor,in B29, had the hub replaced Friday,still no better,awful service

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Sorry my tweet mentioned I contacted customer service via text. Asked for my complaint to be raised to a senior manager to discuss the upgrade process and wording, but was just offered a deadlock letter within 15 days! Not your procedure in your complaints code of practice..

  • jedimasterob1 Steve Galloway (@jedimasterob1) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia Yes, it has since been resolved. This is not the first time I’ve had this issue and frequently not getting the speeds I am paying for. Not your happiest customer by any stretch of the imagination!

  • FroggattSimon Simon Froggatt (@FroggattSimon) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Wifi down AGAIN in b92... come on!

  • LegincBellion Nigel Campbell (@LegincBellion) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia my broadband has been down since 7 am this morning, what’s going on?

  • FroggattSimon Simon Froggatt (@FroggattSimon) reported from Solihull, England

    @davo1982 @virginmedia Went down in B92 also Fudgy. Up again after 45 mins. Does crash too often

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I have just switched my parents over to you for broadband along with their 2 mobiles and I have a pending broadband order to be installed next week for my new house. So I’m extremely disappointed in how I’m being treated, I may have no option to cancel the lot.

  • Jasonhannon85 Jason Hannon (@Jasonhannon85) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia not sure who I’m supposed to be contacting on this but my phone service keeps going in and out is there a problem in Solihull?

  • JamieEveriss . JAY! (@JamieEveriss) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia can someone please advise me how I can make a complaint regarding a refund you owe me?

  • abbiewx_xo Abbie Walters (@abbiewx_xo) reported from Kidderminster, England

    @virginmedia Any advice on why our virgin media boxes have just decided to stop showing some channels. It says error code (W02) and this is on TLC which we used to watch daily?? Joke. What’s the point in paying for for a service which isn’t being provided?

  • Fubz21 Fubz (@Fubz21) reported from Dudley, England

    5th time today @virginmedia has gone down, got zero work done and no response from customer services. Last straw for me this, as if I'm not under enough stress from work as it is!

  • kittykatrollins Helen Rollins (@kittykatrollins) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia hi. Trying to get through to you but permanently met with an automated voice. Please can someone contact me. We’ve been having broadband issues for a long time. tried to log into the hub but it says someone else is already logged in. We really need support from you.

  • JamieEveriss . JAY! (@JamieEveriss) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia can you please advise how I’m able to log a complaint?

  • b67dazza B67 dazza (@b67dazza) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Again @virginmedia your customer service makes me wonder how you survive as a business , I choose to wait to talk to someone as I have the time to atm and what happens as I patiently wait i get cut off .My deal is up soon youre on the back foot now to keep this customer

  • Fubz21 Fubz (@Fubz21) reported from Dudley, England

    @Angriper @virginmedia @SkyUK If I could get Sky here (at least decent speeds) I'd have switched years ago mate. Although, the way things are going, I'd be better off with poor download speed and uptime, rather than super fast speeds and always down.

  • Junction10 Jason Sheldon (@Junction10) reported from Walsall Wood, England

    @virginmedia It always used to. It sees my address from the postcode & gives me the house number and street to choose, then asks me to complete a form for you to contact me to tell me within 10 days if the service is available in my area. It used to be instant, but no-one ever did contact me.

  • AshScrivens Ashley Robert Scrivens (@AshScrivens) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I haven’t really got anywhere, I wanted ideally to discuss the process I went through and what I was advised online placing my upgrade. I have contacted CD via text but i have just been told nothing can be done and pick a new tariff! Struggled to try raise a complaint also...

  • jaw1992_ jake. (@jaw1992_) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia sort your ******* broadband out. It’s every other day that it goes down, and is beyond a joke now.

  • pixelcellar Tim Marshall (@pixelcellar) reported

    @CJGrannell @virginmedia My recent discovery has pee'd me off with them, turns out other than on other sites you can't see Virgin Media's new customer pricing to see if you're upgrades are good value or not. As they can see you are a Virgin user you get directed away to the existing user page. #dodgy

  • robthefoodie The Write Taste (@robthefoodie) reported

    @virginmedia @SkyMediaUK Latest bill does not contain the promised automatic refund for the time our landline was out of service @virginmedia

  • advancedflea Alan (@advancedflea) reported

    @virginmedia I'm an existing customer. I was just curious is all, since I've wanted to get FTTP for years now lol

  • mattshaw32 Matthew Shaw (@mattshaw32) reported

    @virginmedia @coolsneakyben You may not have control, but you do pay @YodelOnline to deliver. Why are you accepting your customers receiving such inadequate service?

  • Johnsmi57306735 John smith (@Johnsmi57306735) reported

    @virginmedia @HISTORYUK Oh I understand. I understand you can offer my package to new customers for a fraction of the £109 a month you'll be charging me as a loyal 10 year plus customer.

  • Jon_A_Hart Jonathan Hart (@Jon_A_Hart) reported

    @virginmedia Another problem. Was told on 18/11/22 a chq would be sent within 40 days. Phoned on 15/1/23 still not arrived and promised a chq within 15 days. Today still not arrived - now expected to wait another 15-20 days.

  • Robstarr Rob★ (@Robstarr) reported

    Was meant to be getting my internet on the 19th of jan they messed it up so got delayed to the 31st they came again yesterday and what they messed up wasn’t even fixed so now delayed till the 16th my luck really is something else **** virgin media and haven’t even got it yet

  • Lovetogoaway Letsflyletsflyaway (@Lovetogoaway) reported

    @virginmedia Sure. That's why your customer service is so slick!

  • kadralija Emir Kadralija (@kadralija) reported

    Hey @virginmedia are you aware of any issues with your DNS server? Can't access some sites, but changing the DNS server to anything else resolves it.

  • otterman62 otterman62 (@otterman62) reported

    @virginmedia 2 hours 14 minutes so far, so not sure why you are quoting 45 minutes response time to people?I appreciate your bosses have dumped you in the u know what by announcing huge price increases, apparently without having the staff to respond, but this really is appalling service
