    @virginmedia 2/ Despite that issue being due to a junction connection in the cabinet in the street, the op seems to refuse to look at that and just wants to reboot my router. Also claims it is due to my use of Modem Mode. Is there anyone in the UK I can contact regarding this?

    @virginmedia 15years a customer, tried to renew 3 times. 3 times you did it wrong, given up and moved to sky. Your customer service is absolutely shocking and zero customer loyalty

  • MykeJD1
    MykeJD (@MykeJD1) reported

    Hi @virginmedia I'm an existing customer, we just paid a 5ver to upgrade and add the kids TV package. I did this yesterday around 5pm, I have a confirmation email but it doesn't tell me when it becomes active? So far 24 hours later and a full TV reset they still aren't working.

  • AlloquiStrix
    Alloqui Strix (@AlloquiStrix) reported

    @virginmedia and another update just received saying it will be fixed today. Honestly, make your mind up. The BB service is excellent when it works. When it doesn't you guys seem to take a trip to the local brewery and drink lemonde!

    @virginmedia is there a know issue with the WiFi in Salford? For the last 12 hours we’ve had no broadband, TV or heating (because our hive thermostat is linked to the wifi). I cannot seem to get any information from your website. This seems to happen every few months!

  • EssVeeJay
    SVJ 🦦 (@EssVeeJay) reported

    @virginmedia It was finally fixed at 4pm today after 6 days . I will be seeking appropriate compensation for lack of service, out of locked expenses incurred and my time being wasted having to chase your engineers and customer services

    @virginmedia @itswesty Is this WiFi or ethernet if WiFi will be a device issue. Turn all devices off, restart the hub then bring one device up at a time until the internet drops then will know which device has the issue.
