Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Smethwick and nearby locations:
-
SorachiTim (@PolymathTim) reported from West Bromwich, EnglandZero Internet connectivity from @virginmedia now for pushing 12 hours. Resetting and/or powering down the hub does nothing, the diagnostic and fault tools just go round and around in an ever more boring circle. #LightningSpeedFarce
-
Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, EnglandMad that I pay £71 a month for 350mbps for @virginmedia Broadband for them to only supply me with 40mbps, internet is barely moving, can’t even load basic web pages on my MacBook or phone. Problems in the Birmingham area?
-
Steve Lees (@measlewolf) reported from Dudley, England@virginmedia Yes, the fault dates back from the 25th August and hopefully a fix will be made tomorrow, if not an engineer is booked for next week. When I finally got through the team were very helpful
-
Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Sheldon, England@virginmedia I don’t think so I’m still getting distorted TV on a few channels it’s frustrating as my complaint never gets recified I’ve spent hours on end trying to get it sorted
-
MJP - mastodonapp.uk/@mrmjprice (@mrmjprice) reported from Birmingham, England@virginmedia Async live chat (WhatsApp) sucks as you let me text you with a problem, let it sit for hours, then close it down if I don’t reply within 5 mins and repeat. I’ll just ignore all the comms.
-
Gordé 🦩 (@ReissOmari) reported from Birmingham, EnglandAnd just like that my @virginmedia is off again, no internet whatsoever. Embarrassing service from them, very disappointed and frustrated.

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.
-
shanny C 🌹 (@_shannonC) reported from Solihull, England@LenFPS @virginmedia they don’t care. it only happens 7pm onwards but will happen until the next morning so I can’t stream or anything. and they’re telling me to write on a forum as if that will fix it😤

Stephen Bennett (@Stephen12857059) reported from Birmingham, EnglandOnce again the Internet Orovider that claims to be the best @virginmedia, has an outage. I bet all my savings there would be significant kick back if the directors didn’t get paid, because the Lady dealing with their account cannot get online. Time has come for change #cancelVM

Jamboross98 🇱🇻🏴 (@rrm53p1970) reported from Bishopbriggs, Scotland@virginmedia you have the worst streaming service EVER. Thinking of quitting you, because it's 💩
-
Sharon Hall (@sharonmariahall) reported@virginmedia @El_Lloydie Dont bother. You wont get any satisfaction. I sent a webform complaint in 27 march and an email to the CEO last weekend. Still waiting for a response
-

-
Alistair Drummond (@adrum1983) reported@misselledee @virginmedia I was out of contract and had to ask 3 times to be disconnected, they continued to charge me and said it wasn’t their problem when I complained they’d overcharged by £120. Never ever again!!
-
Keith A Pearson (@keithapearson) reported@virginmedia I've just wasted 55 minutes of my life trying to talk to your 'customer services' dept. Both the staff members I spoke to could barely communicate in English, and the line kept breaking up... until it died altogether. Wasted time, no resolution, and huge frustration. You're supposed to be a COMMUNICATIONS company! What am I expected to do now? Go through that same shambolic exercise again?
-
DonegalDúnedain 🇮🇪 (@DonegalDunedain) reported@moefitzpatrick I was expecting less support tbh, but the anomaly that is FFG 90 year old voters whose only source of info is Virgin Media and RTÉ will always upset perceived public opinion.
-
Ian Dodds (@Do08dds) reported@virginmedia app not working yet again! Cheers for another ruined evening
