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

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

    @danhounslow @virginmedia They are bull shit! I sit next to the router and sometimes have to take my phone off WiFi so things load.

  • apt1955 Tony T (@apt1955) reported from Wythall, England

    @virginmedia is a case of complete incompetence by your engineers. Complaint reference is COM103375838. Have had no contact. What you can do is find out why a manager authorised a live cable being cut and get the engineers back to reinstate my service.

  • apt1955 Tony T (@apt1955) reported from Wythall, England

    @virginmedia I have reported it at about 11.45 this morning. Wasn't given a fault reference, told a ticket had been raised and I would get a message to my mobile from field support engineers but it might be days before anything can be done. Heard nothing yet. Also raised a complaint as this..

  • kittykaz13 Caroline James (@kittykaz13) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No known issues, there was on 28/04, same thing signal cutting out, supposedly fixed 29/04, but since then there were brief signal losses a couple times a day every day, another known issue raised 06/05 fixed the same day, yesterday had no problems, but today issue is worse

  • TheWebEngr Phillip | The Web Engineer 👨🏻‍💻 🌋 (@TheWebEngr) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I think my wife would like someone high up to call her. As she is inconsolable at the moment. She has been passed from pillar to post on the phone for the past 90 mins and is still on the phone. My wife has some major health issues and no one seems to want to help.

  • paulasenior44 Paula Senior (@paulasenior44) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’ve had 2 issues in last 2 weeks in Europe and away again tomorrow. You tell me all working yet it doesn’t. We reset everything and you had to escalate issue. Within 24 hours it started to work in Greece. No service in guernsey which means it’s not going to work tomrorow Spain

  • paulasenior44 Paula Senior (@paulasenior44) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Please can you call me. I am ready to cancel if this is not resolved today. Your service does not meet even the minimum standard required.

  • apt1955 Tony T (@apt1955) reported from Wythall, England

    @Bluhawk1875 @vmbusiness Hope not! Maddening thing is they were working next door to tidy up the awful cabling job they'd done when they replaced our cable, the guy rang his boss about what to do with the badly installed cable and was just told to cut it! No check to see if it was live!!!

  • RuthOlive1968 Roggy (@RuthOlive1968) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Mine down today and it's a crucial time for my children's uni work with dead lines . Not a happy customer.

  • JWilliams_94 Jamie (@JWilliams_94) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Nothing about Wi-Fi on the service page but by looking at the other 1000s of tweets from people with the same exact issue I’m clearly not going to get a solution anytime soon

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

    Feel sorry for the poor bloke at Virgin Media that’s answered the phone to Matthew

  • paulasenior44 Paula Senior (@paulasenior44) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I am away in Europe again from tomorrow and need a service that works. I have been on hold for 30mins several calls and your assistant cut me off despite a promise at the start of the call that they will ring straight back should the call end. I’m still waiting 2.5hr later!!

  • kittykaz13 Caroline James (@kittykaz13) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Thank you, yes, I just called them after it happened again! They are sending a technician out to see if the area fault from last Sunday has caused an issue on my line, as this issue only started then, a tech is coming out on Tuesday

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

    @virginmedia HD is almost as good, but sport in SD is just horrible to watch

  • paulasenior44 Paula Senior (@paulasenior44) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ClaireBoyles @virginmedia I’m having a nightmare with customer service. No one listens or takes accountability!

  • TheWebEngr Phillip | The Web Engineer 👨🏻‍💻 🌋 (@TheWebEngr) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia my wife is on the 4th phone call to you guys and is in tears beacuse she is stressed out by one of your operators who she cannot understand and has made her incredibly upset. My wife has major health issues and you are not helping at all.

  • paulasenior44 Paula Senior (@paulasenior44) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia And to add to that 7 calls to your customer service and we going round in circles. Appalling customer service

  • baggies_i Adam (@baggies_i) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It's not some 😂🙈 it's everyone mate noticed my Google pixel just went to H+ from 4G so appears you've switched everyone to 3G while fixing the issue. #virginmobile

  • mo4g_777 mo4g (@mo4g_777) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia maybe if virgin didn’t spend shedloads of money on crap adverts and looked after your customers better it would mean something

  • apt1955 Tony T (@apt1955) reported from Wythall, England

    @virginmedia Unbelievably poor service! My broadband and phone line cut off by your contractors without so much as a basic check that the cable was providing service. Now got to wait days for service to be restored.

  • JohnRelen1 Badmanners (@JohnRelen1) reported

    @virginmedia Amazon as a customer for more than 10 years gave me a separate wi fi broadband box valued over 100.00 for being a good customer and the drivers rated me 10 out of 10 for always making them a drink if they wanted one

  • andrewminsky Andrew Minsky ACA (@andrewminsky) reported

    @virginmedia This is ridiculous. Why should I wait hours on a phone for you to provide me a service I pay for?

  • fraser1991smith Fraser Smith (@fraser1991smith) reported

    @virginmedia I need someone from virgin media to phone me! Almost 6 months now I’ve had problem after problem! I WANT TO LEAVE!!!!!! Even the staff on the phone was telling me im in the right! I’ve now moved abroad and still having bills being sent

  • michaelcarr26 mcarr (@michaelcarr26) reported

    @virginmedia sick of constantly off on off on off on to get internet counting down to end of contract to get rid...

  • anniebev6 Annie1971 (@anniebev6) reported

    @virginmedia @beverleyturner Shocking mines going up by £9 in April, so i rang 150 at 9.30 this morning, they messaged me back, it's been going on all day, they've finally cancelled my contract without offering me a better deal, shocking after been a good customer for over 20 years

  • DavidMc50081800 David McGregor (@DavidMc50081800) reported

    @virginmedia No they didn't they claimed there were no notes from my call earlier this afternoon and refused to do anything stating the issue has been resolved when it clearly hasnt

  • CRISPdotTV CRISPdotTV LET'S GET WET (@CRISPdotTV) reported

    @virginmedia When I attempt a speed test on ookla it says I'm on BT and gives me servers located down south. I'm in the North East. When I try a real speed test it says my router isn't compatible, it most definitely is (its a Hub5)

  • JohnRelen1 Badmanners (@JohnRelen1) reported

    @virginmedia I am still holding on whilst they find someone so I can understand what they,and I mean no disrespect but I have very poor hearing and I cannot download the contract as I cannot find it on my mobile

  • hedgefundguru Andy Anderson (@hedgefundguru) reported

    @virginmedia every other time i try to watch a movie on prime, netflix or disney the service is crap. Stop/start. God knows why i pay over £1200 a year for this rubbish

  • 80Richardson stephen richardson (@80Richardson) reported

    @virginmedia well as a returning customer it’s not going well so far …. My equipment arrived on Friday and an engineer was supposed to come between 8am and 1pm to install said equipment, I stayed in for 10 hours today and the engineer was a no show .
