Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Albrighton, England

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

  • djchrisr Chris Roberts (@djchrisr) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia not long after that because I immediately received a high bill but was told it takes 30 days to set up, so I accepted that. I've messaged & emailed about all this before & gave up because of poor or non-response. It's frustrating. I'm very busy and don't have time to keep chasing

  • CubDJS Drew J Hoskins-Smith (@CubDJS) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia Yes, the Complaints team have just parroted the same statements back to me without listening to me as an actual person and advised me to talk to the movers team, which is confusing as the Complaints team should be the overall team to raise a complaint with, not just hand it off.

  • CubDJS Drew J Hoskins-Smith (@CubDJS) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I've moved house but remained a customer with no break in payments. As you can see, I was explicitly told to ignore my 'new' contract as it was just a formality with no changes to terms and I can't see any mention of paying two months at once.

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

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

  • Appolotech Dave Stone (@Appolotech) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    @ObsessiveJohn @virginmedia They don’t have any competitors for speed, but that means customer service is complacent. The strongest guarantee with them is that you will not get the speed you pay for during peak times (evenings and weekends), and they won’t care!

  • CubDJS Drew J Hoskins-Smith (@CubDJS) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia The complaint should have been received from two days ago. But yes, we'll see what happens.

  • lucylegs1506 Lucy Coxon (@lucylegs1506) reported from Wednesfield, England

    @virginmedia not a happy customer at all. My phoneis not working at all, not turning on. I pay insurance thru virgin. I called them 2day to see if it could be repaired, they said no and Ive gotta pay £80 excess for a replacement. It doesnt state this in my contract.

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

    @Appolotech @virginmedia I’ve had really intermittent quality of service with the Virgin BB. Switching to SKY end of month.

  • Howenblue Charles Shakespeare (@Howenblue) reported from Halesowen, England

    @virginmedia Last Friday I was promised call back by your Customer Care within 3 working days. I'm still waiting ....

  • CubDJS Drew J Hoskins-Smith (@CubDJS) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia @richardbranson @BBCWatchdog @joelycett So, while off sick with anxiety, I thought I'd deal with one issue; Virgin Media wanting two months (which we cannot afford) at once as we've moved house. I thought it was an error but turns out it's bad business at play. Look.

  • gmb_sarahjames Sarah James (@gmb_sarahjames) reported from West Bromwich, England

    Really disappointed with @virginmedia call centre staff this evening, asking 10 times in the space of 20 minutes to speak to a supervisor to resolve an issue is not good enough

  • InfamousSuk Infamous Suk (@InfamousSuk) reported from West Bromwich, England

    One of the worst things i have ever done is move from @EE mobile to @virginmedia mobile as 4g is slower than a slug... currently getting 0.48mbps even my school internet was 2mb 15 years ago pdl 😡😡

  • djchrisr Chris Roberts (@djchrisr) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia 17th May I sent my complaint. It's getting very close....

  • djchrisr Chris Roberts (@djchrisr) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I've already tried calling. The agent wouldn't accept what I was saying and basically called me a liar so I tweeted you & you advised me to file a complaint on the website to which I've received no response at all. I feel my only chance of a result is to take it to CISAS.

  • djchrisr Chris Roberts (@djchrisr) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia I called the mobile team at the start of the year to put a £5 cap on my mobile contract which my daughter uses but have now received a bill for £29 and discovered the cap was never put on. CS on the phone insisted I've never called about this but I know for a fact I did....

  • davebytheway Dave Bytheway (@davebytheway) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @wolves_ink @virginmedia @Newey_7 Our @SkyHelpTeam broadband hasn’t worked since installation despite calls and an attempted booster fix. Know how you feel mate

  • ChapmanGaynor Gaynor Chapman (@ChapmanGaynor) reported from West Bromwich, England

    @virginmedia how long is this network going to be down. I can’t make calls on my mobile and I have no internet connection and haven’t had any since about 1pm , not happy

  • Appolotech Dave Stone (@Appolotech) reported from Telford and Wrekin, England

    Just had my first bill from @TalkTalk, from whom I get the broadband speed I pay for, whereas with @virginmedia I got half what I paid for at twice the price. Should’ve switched in any of those 15 years I was a loyal customer getting terrible customer service!

  • field133 daniel (@field133) reported from Dudley, England

    @virginmedia absolute joke virgin broadband nearly 6 weeks of intermittent issues with no broadband and again yesterday and today when you call no one answers just holding this needs to be addressed

  • davebytheway Dave Bytheway (@davebytheway) reported from Wolverhampton, England

    @wolves_ink @virginmedia @Newey_7 @SkyHelpTeam @CoopEnergy have well and truly let us down, over charged, no communication and still waiting for a call back from last week! They are the worst I’ve encountered for this

  • drmccracken255 David McCracken (@drmccracken255) reported

    @virginmedia nothing but trouble since getting the Hub 4. WiFi continually drops out and terrible coverage around the house. Worked perfectly before. I’ve spoken with customer service a dozen times this last month and still not resolved. All they do is offer me pods for an extra £5pm terrible
