  • Coley__76 Gary (@Coley__76) reported

    @virginmedia Yes I called the team and asked for the complaint to be reopened I am expecting a call back but not had one yet. In that call I said I’m looking to see if there is a pattern to the dropouts, as I believe this might help with the diagnostics.
