Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Walsall, England

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

  • Phil_Bonna Bonna (@Phil_Bonna) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Angela_Griffin @virginmedia I have the fibre optic broadband for £23.95 month and the customer service is great

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Alternatively, if you feel the urge to actually be helpful, you can search my name and location (it's an uncommon name) and ask a complaints manager to contact me. No security issues or breaches, since the notes I've been assured are on file, will be there to check.

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia 2/ Despite that issue being due to a junction connection in the cabinet in the street, the op seems to refuse to look at that and just wants to reboot my router. Also claims it is due to my use of Modem Mode. Is there anyone in the UK I can contact regarding this?

  • KittykatClaire Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia I guess it's not your. Problem. After pushing me into a contract with them. I've been in touch with them and there nothing they can do they just want me. To turn my mobile on and off again

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Another fail. I've reached out in exasperation since my chase-ups of 14th, 19th and today have been ignored. As have my 5 messages to your local rep who promised to be on hand. If you can't be bothered to help me, I'll just escalate via another route @richardbranson

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia And this is why, I'll be reporting you to trading standards for fraudulent misselling/misrepresentation and then abdicating ALL responsibility/accountability to resolve. There's no security/DPA issues in you giving me a direct dial number via DM. You just don't want to resolve.

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Another fail. Well done 👏🏻

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Quite possibly the worst onboarding and customer 'care' experience I've EVER had @virginmedia Unfulfilled promises, failure to deliver contract as agreed and now I'm 'lost' in the system and being ignored. I'm left with no choice other than to 'out' you. #CaveatEmptor

  • Stephen12857059 Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nobody has called me and the WhatsApp chat is very frustrating and not dealing with the issue. This is very simple, I was sent contract paperwork with an agreed monthly fee of £86.75. Why have I paid two months of excessively higher payments. I should have left VM

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Just called your offshore call centre regarding my internet connection. I’m having the same issues as I had when I got a £154 credit from you. /1

  • kevmaslin Kev Maslin (@kevmaslin) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia The ideal resolution would have been for VM to return the document as originally promised. We have dealt with other companies in this regard and all have been prompt and professional. Even the DWP accepted a photocopy of the POA. Why VM couldn't is entirely beyond me.

  • jenkin99 jen (@jenkin99) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia We had issuse with our service, and was told we would need new cables. We the new cables installed. They left cabels hanging in the garden which has since been removed. Our grass is ruined (I have photos) it looks like next doors cable are also under or grass????

  • LynneMasters LynneMUFC#22#44 (@LynneMasters) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why is the Sky Sports red button not working

  • EvanD Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Yes I’ve done that. My connection drops out for a minute or so every 30-60 mins. Hard to replicate. My account has notes regarding the reason why the credit was given last time. Ideally I don’t want to wait so long for the same issue to be fixed.

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Just to let you know, I've taken the time to write out another complaint via the link. I've submitted and it says 'nothing to see here'. The link says response within 7 days, and the submission says 28 days, and then my portal says I haven't raised a complaint. ANOTHER FAIL

  • BrianMCape Brian Cape (@BrianMCape) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No. Already done it about 7 times without any luck. I refuse to waste more hours in queues, only to rehash my issues to another anonymous operator. I've been assured that this is in the hands of a named handler, who didn't call me back as promised and is ignoring my emails. Fail

  • KittykatClaire Claire B🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ (@KittykatClaire) reported from Willenhall, England

    I'm so pissed off @virginmedia blackmailed me into signing my mobile contract with @O2 by saying my media account would be cheaper. If I stayed with virgin it would be amount more. So I had no option but to go with o2 and No my mobile Internet is crap. I can't use my doorbell

  • Stephen12857059 Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I called 150 today to speak to a Supervisor regarding my bill. I was told I would receive a call within the hour. NOTHING. I agreed a contract 18/8/22 and the last two payments have been £65 & £75 more than agreed. This is shocking customer care and service.

  • tr0y1291 Troy (@tr0y1291) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia the most unreliable service going! Sky should be rubbing their hands together knowing that this shower of **** is their main competition.

Virgin Media Issues Reports

  • andybh Andy BH (@andybh) reported

    @virginmedia I’ve cancelled now - A shame as I’ve been a customer for over 20 years, since the days of Eurobell and then Telewest/Blueyonder.

  • Nice2KnoNatalie Natalie ☀️ (@Nice2KnoNatalie) reported

    @virginmedia the engineer changed a part and said we should be sorted but again we are having issues

  • DezNutz56775769 DezNutz (@DezNutz56775769) reported

    @virginmedia Which is the service she has been using and therefore also paying for. @talktalk incidentally were also good enough to cover the cost of the initial period of crossover. We'll be taking this much further.

  • DezNutz56775769 DezNutz (@DezNutz56775769) reported

    @virginmedia @TalkTalk All this on top of the reason she didn't renew her contract in the first place - the broadband service in contract was generally appalling considering she was supposed to be receiving 150mb.

  • FrazzzYT Frazzz (@FrazzzYT) reported

    @virginmedia Well am connected... for now, don't trust it not to go down again to be honest

  • _brycejewell Bryce Jewell (@_brycejewell) reported

    @virginmedia This TiVo box has not been working since Monday and was incorrectly cancelled when I tried last Saturday to get your customer service to fix this.

  • marthasydenham Susan (@marthasydenham) reported

    @virginmedia 10 minutes on the phone 2nd time this week with someone who doesn't get the problem no matter how many ways I explain it. This time I was mysteriously cut off. Any chance of teaching your workers how to resolve issues? No phone signal for my family for a week now!

  • Coshell1 John Cohell (@Coshell1) reported

    @virginmedia The service status just keeps getting pushed back 2 hrs 12 last night then 8am then 10am and so on and apparently India not obliged to give a reason or tell me how many affected n BR5 1 LW - it’s a disgrace - new box and then nothing works

  • chunkybuttgames chunkybuttlovesgaming (@chunkybuttgames) reported

    @itsChunkybutt @virginmedia Well their responses are basically asking/telling me to solve it when I've tried, a lot. It's an issue their end, not mine. They need to fix it.

  • Nice2KnoNatalie Natalie ☀️ (@Nice2KnoNatalie) reported

    btw, if you live in the UK don’t get @virginmedia because we have no wifi for the 3rd time this week and had an engineer to “fix it” last week :/
