    How am I supposed to book an appointment for an engineer to look at my installation. Fed up of it going down because of not getting the service I’m paying for. Nothing on your website or my virgin media only offers of trying to make more money for a crap service.

    @Penwith92 @virginmedia If only it was just Virgin but it wasn't, lots of internet services and other ISPs had an issue too. Stuff breaks sometimes, I have 3 different links on different ISP here at home and they were all having issues. Looks like it's starting to work normally no mind...

    @virginmedia Oh yeah, it's 8am now, of course you're aware: your people finally woke up! Your company needs to sort out EMERGENCY HOURS CONTACT, dammit. And roll back your bill increases: if this is the level of service you offer, it's unjustified

    @virginmedia @virginmedia couldn't you have posted this, oh say about 7 hours or so ago? Some stability seems to be coming back now, but this lack of communication is not acceptable.
