Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Redditch, England

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

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia It was a five minute fix, but she lost one month of TV access as a result. She’s a nurse so arranging a daytime appointment took a while because of her work patterns. It’s her first home of her own and I felt she had been treated in a less than respectable manner.

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    And now you have been offline for over half a day with your website still saying there is no known issue?! I want to make an official complaint to both @virginmedia and @Ofcom , Your service is appalling and your customer service even worse.

  • MartinClarke165 Martin Clarke (@MartinClarke165) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia No service still. Outrageous. No customer support. Online mths all day. Great advert for Virgin. The most reliable broadband provider #poorservice

  • alex_bann Alex Bann (@alex_bann) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Can anyone help please? New V6 box has been broken for about a month and have tried to call to get fixed/replaced but to no avail.

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Absolutely atrocious customer service! Waited for my Hub 4 to arrive as we are now paying for highest broadband, it arrives and has wrong power cable inside, phoned to sort, on hold for 20 mins then speak to someone who has IT issues and has put us on 40 mins hold!

  • dbyrne2112 David Byrne (@dbyrne2112) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia The issue is happening on the app so it looks like it’s duplicated the laptop using chrome 4 times. 3 of those need removing which I can’t do

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia Just phoned, spent 35 minutes on hold, call answered, questions asked, checks being carried out.......... Phone gets put down!!! Do you expect me to call again for the same atrocious service?? @virginmedia @BBCWatchdog

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia My daughter had to make 2 phone calls to your customer service department to resolve a problem with her new TV box in November last year. She was almost 2 hours on the phone & then an engineer visit solved the problem. Engineer admitted the setup instructions were at fault.

  • henry_1664 Andrew Grove (@henry_1664) reported from Birmingham, England

    Can anyone tell me how you get @virginmedia to respond to and deal with complaints? I am at the end of my tether with them! I have raised 4 complaints now and they have unsatisfactorily responded to 1 which I called back about to keep the complaint open only for them to close...

  • Markycot Mark Cottrill (@Markycot) reported from Solihull, England

    I can’t get because Hub 3 doesn’t support it, poor quality control, worse customer service @virginmedia I want it sorted today!!

  • psicorps2000 David H-T 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺🇳🇴🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@psicorps2000) reported from Solihull, England

    Anybody in B37 with a @virginmedia box having problems with their boxes rebooting? Ours has done it twice without warning this evening.

  • lestatsmum rayofsunshine 💙 (@lestatsmum) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia do you have a number or email so I cancel mobile insurance?

  • JtheB_DKP Jack The Biscuit 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@JtheB_DKP) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia • 3 times I’ve been cut off this morning while trying to sort out my bill. Could someone please help?

  • adam_jordan112 Adam (@adam_jordan112) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia has your mobile online order website gone down? It keeps telling me to message or ring to order?

  • bicovico victoria nicholson (@bicovico) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia shocking service again today

  • stumccullagh Stuart McCullagh (@stumccullagh) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia internet down yet again ..... McDonalds carpark to get their WiFi just for a Zoom call!!!!

  • ninsull Nickins (@ninsull) reported from Solihull, England

    @virginmedia how can you spend nearly an hour on two phones to report a problem with no one picking up. Yet ask me if il refer you. @next stop I’m cancelling my contract.

  • MutliRaceMan Jean Thierry 💙 (@MutliRaceMan) reported from Birmingham, England

    @davesumnersmith @virginmedia I have realised that talking to Twitter teams is of limited value. The responses are scripted and when they’re painted into a corner, they just stop responding. Customer Service has become a contradiction in terms. My daughter has had similar experiences with Virgin Media.

  • DagnallChris chris dagnall (@DagnallChris) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia my wifi is constantly going down, it's happened 4 times today, so frustration. Why do I pay £74 pound a month for this service!? Really thinking of switching to @SkyUK

  • RoyKyffin Roy Kyffin (@RoyKyffin) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia why has my mobile signal strength dropped now Virgin Mobile is piggybacking off Vodafone? Used to be full strength when you used EE.

  • FMDevon Leigh (@FMDevon) reported

    Obligatory @virginmedia is down tweet..

  • Mini_milner Adam (@Mini_milner) reported

    @virginmedia I understand about the compensation part. And I low how it says ‘may’. you will probably try and get out of it. I want to know why is it taking THAT long to fix an issue? And why have I been fobbed off with the same excuses time and time again.

  • Amazingmrg Paul Grindrod (@Amazingmrg) reported

    @OilyMcOilface @virginmedia Yeah. I only have them now because they already existed at my current address. I used to be a customer but cancelled when they wanted to charge me nearly £100 for moving and the phone operator insulted me when I tried to sort it out. They're not high on my list of fave companies

  • Mini_milner Adam (@Mini_milner) reported

    @virginmedia Quite frankly it’s not good enough. How can you make someone go without service for 10 days?? What if they are elderly and have no mobile data to use??

  • MFHBlueberry Matthew (@MFHBlueberry) reported

    @virginmedia I've just filled in your complaint form and I have no idea if it went through, as there was no confirmation screen, and no reference number given.

  • PerriLeexx Perri🤍 (@PerriLeexx) reported

    @virginmedia why do I no longer get coverage in Blackheath Village? Before Christmas I had no issues but ever since the internet is either so slow to load or doesn’t load at all!

  • BoomBoomBilal Bilal Husain (@BoomBoomBilal) reported

    @virginmedia To install broadband service which I ordered in early December. You guys are super fast at signing up customers at front end but have no idea of if you will actually be able to provide service at the back end. And then leaving customers completely in dark on what’s happening

  • TommyMcMusic Tommy Mc (@TommyMcMusic) reported

    @virginmedia why is my phone signal awful, it never used to be

  • wallywalshaw14 Matt Walshaw (@wallywalshaw14) reported

    @virginmedia Updated to midday today, but based on what you’ve said this can’t be relied upon?! How are people supposed to plan for working from home if we don’t even know if a known issue is being resolved? #virgin #huddersfield

  • AmolTyagi3 Amol Tyagi (@AmolTyagi3) reported

    @virginmedia Residential account. I have broadband service from virgin media. Since my installation was delayed, I requested for dongle to cover the delay. Now, I have running virgin broadband and just want to cancel my dongle connection and refund for dongle cost.
