-
Scott Wickham (@Scott_Wic) reported from Rochester, England@virginmedia My request to support was about the hub5 and some Wi-Fi extenders/boosters which I’m entitled to, they said that it was sorted and would be in the post and now only the hub5 has turned up!!! Does this mean I have to contact support again…….

Louise Boxall (@Louiseboxall) reported@virginmedia Yep, we’ve done all that. It says intermittent service. It’s been like this over a week. Now it’s worse! Even spoke to one of the customer service people on Friday, the issue is worse and we were told unless they get 360 then Virgin won’t help. Absolute disgrace!
