Birmingham Mail Arvostelua 

How glad am I after removing them from my news feed results on Google.
No more clicking on false headlines with minimal content, trying to get detail when it's all full of lazy journalism filler.
As for paying for the privilege, yer 'avin a larf ain't ya?

Biggest load of drivel and clickbait ever.
How they seem to get so much president on Googles homepage beggars belief.
I’m sure they just post junk just to rile people up.
They are not a reputable news channel and should be banned.

The Birmingham Mail was once an essential part of daily life in this city, but it has clearly traded its integrity for corporate greed. What used to be a reliable source of honest reporting has devolved into a cluttered, unreadable mess of clickbait and intrusive advertising.
​It is obvious that the user experience is no longer a priority. Trying to read a single local story feels like an obstacle course of pop-ups, screen-blocking videos, and "merry-go-round" ads. Instead of fixing a broken, error-strewn platform, the owners have doubled down by demanding a subscription fee. They are asking residents to pay for a service that they’ve spent years making worse.
​By chasing every penny at the expense of readability and journalistic standards, they are effectively locking out the local community. Readers are moving elsewhere not because we don't care about Birmingham, but because we refuse to support a model that treats us like nothing more than a metric for ad revenue. If this current path continues, the Mail won’t just lose its ratings—it will lose its relevance entirely.

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'.
