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

  • ainsworth_neil Neil M Ainsworth (@ainsworth_neil) reported from Redditch, England

    @virginmedia No my wife works from home 2 days a week. She constantly gets logged out. No help from customer service. I have the agents ref number and the rough time of the call. Very disappointed

  • malcolmwhittak2 Malcolm Whittaker (@malcolmwhittak2) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia @TomMockridgeVM We are currently moving house and trying to cancel our account unfortunately the call agents think it's funny to keep a client on the phone for 3 hours even more so they are happy to direct us to a department that is closed which terminates a call.

  • markhipwell1990 Mark Hipwell (@markhipwell1990) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia So now I have to ring to cancel because that's too much or give you a chance to fix the price. Both take time out of my day when we only did this less then 2 months ago.

  • Griffomiester Stuart (@Griffomiester) reported from Willenhall, England

    @virginmedia Have a word with yourself, this has been going on for 12 months. How about you send an engineer to fix once and for all

  • chrispicken Chris Picken (@chrispicken) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @HannahWestwood @virginmedia It’s on, it’s just slow. Supposed to be 350 and I’m getting 20.

  • thephdrunner Dr Emma Neachell (@thephdrunner) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I’m getting an access denied error message. A quick google suggests this is a common issue.

  • Kimbohud 🇬🇧Kimbo🇬🇧 (@Kimbohud) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia I have received a further two or three calls, following the request to remove one of the V boxes to save me some money, offering me different packages as a ‘loyal’ customer which would be costing me more! #youcouldntmakeitup 🙄

  • ianl2001 Ian lee (@ianl2001) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia please explain customer service to me...on hold for 16 minutes, then cut off #jokeservice

  • ObsessiveJohn John Sanders  (@ObsessiveJohn) reported from Shifnal, England

    @virginmedia Unreliable & intermittent Broadband, no Sky Atlantic but most importantly very poor customer service as justified by this thread - I’d rather rather speak to a person real time

  • eurobob17 chris (@eurobob17) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @virginmedia It's my media service to many price hikes been with you for 8years and new people get a deal for a quarter of the price I pay I want out way to expensive paying for a land line I dont use just because VM wont let me out of LL service

  • lukiee Luke T (@lukiee) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I can’t get into my account online.. I have changed my password but it is still my my details are incorrect.. help

  • DixeyBaker Sharon Baker (@DixeyBaker) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia trying to get some help with my router and I'm on hold for 20 mins then get cut off - no chat facility available and no email help - rather frustrating !

  • malcolmwhittak2 Malcolm Whittaker (@malcolmwhittak2) reported from Birmingham, England

    @jwhitt1970 @virginmedia @TomMockridgeVM Hi Joe Virgin Media and Mr Mockridge think about money in the bank, Customer service isn't on the agenda, it feels like authorised theft as all the time and effort on the phone is time lost with no evidence relating to performance. #CustomerService

  • Kagey_infohub Kate Gordon (@Kagey_infohub) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Not sure tbh- it took at least 2 hours for the update to complete. Our connection frequently drops and is slow.

  • tfd1977 trev1874 (@tfd1977) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia on hold listening to crap music for hour then disconnected on hold again for 30 mins now anyone working in faults tonight

  • lukiee Luke T (@lukiee) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia Still go having issues :(

  • philwowski Philky (@philwowski) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia been on hold to cs for 20+ minutes. No tv service. Intermittent service for the last 4/5 weeks. I just want to watch tv. I pay £100s /yr and yet not getting the service expected. I think I will have to contact Sky for a comparison sad after 15 years

  • PRBloke Clive Reeves (@PRBloke) reported from Birmingham, England

    @Lionbites @virginmedia @SkyUK You’re very picky. We had no broadband service from @virginmedia yesterday morning and no phone yesterday evening. 20 minutes to answer a phone call. I think they’re all challenged for customer service

  • Tedtalks13 Teds (@Tedtalks13) reported from Aldridge, England

    @ukhomeoffice @BrandonLewis ive one all this in my investigation to the fraud in court tht has a fraud log failed by @ThamesVP; via EE and well virgin media refused to co operate: fraud is easy to catches frombasic start of internet "the signal" for any signal to connect it has to have data communication

  • DixeyBaker Sharon Baker (@DixeyBaker) reported from Birmingham, England

    @virginmedia Thanks for replying! The green light keeps flashing which its never done - we had an outage in B14 yesterday- my internet is working and we have rebooted but its still flashing

  • JuliaMo77954557 Julia Morales (@JuliaMo77954557) reported

    @virginmedia Is this a joke?!? Do you not think I've tried all of the options on your website?!? Your WhatsApp team keep asking if I still need help. I reply straight away and say yes I do. Then nothing!!! Do you have any other suggestions?

  • JuliaMo77954557 Julia Morales (@JuliaMo77954557) reported

    @virginmedia If I don't get through to someone who can help me tomorrow i am going to cancel my direct debit. I want to cancel my package but I've no way to do this other than to stop my payments.

  • the_angmo TheAngmo 🇵🇱 (@the_angmo) reported

    @virginmedia @MCNEATofficial And I'm still waiting to be connected... Since June! Impossible to speak with someone in charge of this mess. Constant lies. Shocking customer "service". Grande Bordello!

  • sarahedge Sarah Edge (@sarahedge) reported

    @virginmedia @richardbranson is this the service you are happy to provide to your customers? Every comment I’ve read so far on Twitter is someone complaining. Your exit charges are making you rich, not your service. Please fix this mess for us.

  • collyettey Collette (@collyettey) reported

    @virginmedia the bill should never have been generated! someone at VM created the order for collection, so why am i being penilised over something I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER?? I REFUSE TO PAY IT - the collection date was set by you, the courier being used it set by you yet i am being billed

  • chris_walsh1 chris walsh (@chris_walsh1) reported

    @virginmedia @virginmedia so that's it then can't even turn over and the earliest you can send an engineer is 3rd Sept!!!! Please explain how this is a service worth paying for?

  • Team_Mark Mark Read (@Team_Mark) reported

    @shadylady222 @virginmedia Definitely don't book an engineer yet. Issue definitely sounds like it linked to same fault effecting elsewhere although @virginmedia still not answered my question on what the fault is yet?

  • DavidCane David Cane (@DavidCane) reported

    @virginmedia Well he was at the address that a network contractor was yesterday when our broadband service stopped. He came over to have a look. suspects (as I did initially) the contractor you used has damaged the cable to my address. In the meantime we're using up our limited mobile data😐

  • timdeegan1 Tim Deegan (@timdeegan1) reported

    @virginmedia @virgisnzmedia Your customer service don't have a clue, and lie constantly. I've been on your WhatsApp chat for 3 hours today, and then over an hour on the phone. All they tried to do was sell me a more expensive package. Just fix what i'm already paying for.

  • sarahedge Sarah Edge (@sarahedge) reported

    @virginmedia We’ve tried to cancel on the phone numerous times and we just get cut off every single time. We’ve never experienced such terrible customer service as with virgin. You don’t treat people as humans, we’re just money making numbers to you. Infuriating.
