Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Solihull, England

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

  • stevegoodman Steve Goodman (@stevegoodman) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia No, I wasn't and that's why when customer service couldn't offer anything close to the competition or your own "new customer" offers I cancelled, prior to the first tweet. If you valued your existing customers, then once out of contract, you'd be able to offer similar deals.

  • A_J_92 Ash❗️ (@A_J_92) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia do you have an email address I can email on to cancel please I've tried phoning and its a joke!

  • 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.

  • nigeyp Nigel P Harris (@nigeyp) reported from Birmingham, England

    Sick of the shit customer service in the uk. 3 calls to @virginmedia trying to get them to repay a credit & after being put on hold for 10mins they hang up each time. #Useless #virginmedia

  • stevegoodman Steve Goodman (@stevegoodman) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia - Out of contract and tried to switch to a deal on your website. Customer services refused, claiming the £250+ more a year option I'm on is the best you'll offer. I ended up cancelling, as I'm not paying over the odds - sad I have to leave though & hoped for better!

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

    @virginmedia Thanks you for this. I’m at work 12hrs today so won’t be calling. Very disappointed over the past 2yrs of issues. I’ve called customer services multiple times and made two complaints previously. Still not resolved so will be switching.

  • 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..

  • A_J_92 Ash❗️ (@A_J_92) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I want to order the sim only which is on offer which ends tonight. I am trying to bring my no. Across from another network i have the PAC I've put this in the form when ordering online but getting an error message

  • CrackingLeaders Carol Coombes O.B.E (@CrackingLeaders) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Bedroom installation contracted weeks ago for ill person. Didnt happen. Scant, apathetic apology, told new date might now be few weeks. Was held up collection from hosp awaiting techs that never came. We've no clue what's happening when, nor the effort to keep trying for it.

  • A_J_92 Ash❗️ (@A_J_92) reported from Birmingham, England

    So I left @virginmedia over 18 months ago as they tried to rip off a loyal customer and had no customer service experience or knowledge at all. I thought I'd give them another chance just by grabbing a sim only deal as the offer was attracting. say no more, Sim cancelled!

  • 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.

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

    @virginmedia I'm trying to get our bill down paying 134 a mouth is to much got the VIP package the first caller said could get it down to 99 then said no because we can't get 500 mb in our area got cut off now been on phone another 50 mins

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • Wrightgal80 Kate Wright ◣ ◢ (@Wrightgal80) reported from Birmingham, England

    @BloxwichWolf @virginmedia They are beyond crap!

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

    As well as the hub randomly disconnecting from various home control devices; Alexa, Sonos, Dyson… the @virginmedia TiVo Box now seems incapable of playing BBC iPlayer! This service, despite having the most up to date equipment and checking every setting & connection is rubbish.

  • stevegoodman Steve Goodman (@stevegoodman) reported from Nuneaton, England

    @virginmedia I gave them a call before mentioning it on Twitter. I've sent in a complaint as a last attempt before I subscribe to another provider.

  • 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.

  • paul_damien Paul Damien 👯‍♂️🌈(He/Him/It) 💫 (@paul_damien) reported

    The utter scum @virginmedia needs to fail. They are utter scum and their business needs to fail. As a shareholder in your parent company liberty bell, please can you advise where I can raise a shareholder question about how awful the UK operations are.

  • CarryOn90s Carry On 90s (@CarryOn90s) reported

    @virginmedia As I said, slow and tedious, 24 hours to get a single response when all I want to do is alter my package and will no doubt need multiple msgs to even get anywhere

  • JanssonsMagic M Singh (@JanssonsMagic) reported

    @virginmedia @o2 can you tell me who can cancel my volt o2 sim as per the screenshot email

  • ConstableChaos Constable Chaos (@ConstableChaos) reported

    Okay betting people .. @virginmedia have already missed two engineer appointments to fix a vulnerable elderly lady's phone line that's now been not working for over a week .. The third appt they made is for 'between 08.00 and 12.00' today .. Will they show up this time ??

  • BickleySteve Steve Bickley (@BickleySteve) reported

    @virginmedia Bloke I spoke to also tried desperately to sign me up to a £5 per month O2 SIM card that I didn’t want or need. Already a Virgin mobile customer.

  • paul_damien Paul Damien 👯‍♂️🌈(He/Him/It) 💫 (@paul_damien) reported

    @virginmedia You cannot claim that when you apply an arbitrary price rise based not even on inflation, it is sheer profiteering. You are scum, and I hope I you fail you utter pieces of 💩 scum.

  • kentdecking brownslandscape (@kentdecking) reported

    @virginmedia Just the answer I expected, no help whatsoever but for this crap service you still want to hike your charges, you are going to lose an awful lot of customers

  • Jenpatel7 Jen patel (@Jenpatel7) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson customer service and broadband is a joke

  • paul_damien Paul Damien 👯‍♂️🌈(He/Him/It) 💫 (@paul_damien) reported

    Utter "C U Next Tuesday's" @virginmedia. Extortionate price rises that bear no realities with actual life or the cost increases that they face. They are profiteering from price rises, whilst delivering an ever deteriorating service **** you @virginmedia, **** you.
