Birmingham Mail Reviews 119

Sort your website out you plonkers, what a waste of time and effort.

Impossible to read anything whilst it’s jumping around the page.

Trying to read an article is like an endurance test, which can push some people to insanity. Battle videos, ads, pop-up messages to swipe, to read more, to subscribe - but press on them and more jokes on you as the page dissappears and reappears back at the top where you have to run the whole gauntlet again, inevitably accidentally pressing on a preposterous click bait link which has no discernable purpose- who are they actually for? If you persevere and keep reading the article you will find its a total load of tosh presumably written by an illiterate rage-baiting bot.

Must have lost their minds! As if they want you to pay to view what a poophole Brum is! I can't help but laugh.

Started charging to view bham mail website. Used to be free. Definitely won’t be using it to see news from Birmingham again.

I hate the fact everytime I click on Google to search, I see this shite site with The so called snow storm arriving from Jan to December,I think I’m leaving Google browser can’t stand looking at this crap any longer

Totaly bogus . Just anothy bs news outlet

Scaremongering headlines aimed at the elderly AGAIN. Numerous times the headline has intimated that the government will be deducting funds from people’s bank account mainly connected to the repayment of WFA. NO. The government cannot directly do that, firstly a process has to be gone through (change of tax code which is a notifiable action etc) before the repayment process starts. I thought that the idea was to inform people in a timely manner, not to scare the hell out of them with inflammatory clickbait headlines.

Click bait headline news - all Home Counties snow storms coming 17 October 2025
No wonder people are leaving news sites in their droves with such sensational click bait “headline news”
Can’t even hide on google feed these days.
Worst case of desperation ever

Extremely bad news outlet. They now advertise on everyone's mobile phones and tablets, but you click on their icon they are immediately demanding money ! It is time the users were paid by them for advertising on our communications equipment, especially mobile phones and tablets. Google immediately stop putting this on my mobile phone. I don't want their advertisements either. It to block and report them.

I sometimes wonder if the writers draw headlines out of a bingo machine: “200 counties to be lashed by storms”, “drivers face £10,000 fines for sneezing at the wheel”, “Britain to melt next week”. It’s like a sitcom, except without the jokes — or maybe the joke is on anyone still reading.

Why can’t they proof read their stories before posting? It’s lazy. I’m sick of seeing stories every day with typos. Particular ones written by James Rodger. I’d have got the sack for producing sloppy work! It’s not hard to quickly read through what you’ve written is it?

Abysmal journalism. Happy to repeat and amplify racism/sexism and will block any comment that challenges this.

Terrible "news" outlet that continously allows racists to post their hateful comments without adequate moderation. Yet they will instantly block anyone that dares to challenge them.

The Moses Mukuna HMRC piece...states,
"...The Labour Party government's tax arm has deducted tens of thousands from Moses Mukuna..."....HMRC is not the Labour Party government's tax wing, it's a long established government department with the responsibility of collecting tax and customs duty irrespective of the political party in government.
Typical of the inaccuarate, badly written garbage that these 'Live' websites purport to be news.

Birmingham live is clickbait - fake news - avoid - I have yet to read anything worthy of my time

blocked on MSN cos they keep misquoting local stories as national news. today's f***-up was e-scooters in Essex. presumably there's not enough news in Birmingham .

annoying the hell out of random readers on MSN won't make u more popular.

Never read such rubbish what happened to integrity? The most misleading 'news'.

Third grade
I used to visit Birmingham Mail for local updates. Now it’s full of misleading headlines and articles that barely say anything. The site is overloaded with ads, pop-ups, and pointless filler.

Birmingham deserves real journalism. This isn’t it.

Tells more lies than Two Tier Kier if that at all is possible.

Dreadful awful constantly getting ‘Page not available’ adverts covering pages, I used to buy the newspaper but they hiked the price to over £2.00, so now I’m using neither
