@virginmedia I’m tired of shocking connection. I’m working from home and I need a stable internet connection, not one that keeps cutting out ever few minutes. You’re happy to take our money every month but whenever I call you never fix it

@alexfenlon @TalkTalk @virginmedia If they mess me about, I'll simply move. I was lied to, ignored and never resolved with @TalkTalk - and they have the cheek to send me rubbish about how they "miss" me. Try doing anything with 0.3mbs.

@alexfenlon @TalkTalk @virginmedia I sincerely hope you don't end up with a fault. I was with @TalkTalk for many years until a fault last year. Quite honestly the worst company of any description I have ever dealt with. Totally failed to resolve, now much happier on @virginmedia

@virginmedia once again your online service status tells me there are no known issues in our area. I call to report I still have the intermittent fault I have had for over a week and told there is a fault in the area which may not be fixed until 12th March.

@virginmedia Thanks for the reply, it’s off more than it’s on these days and more annoyingly I pay extra for the extra speed. I’ve done all the turning on and turning off and reboots. There appears to be an issue in my area as it was the same last Friday.

@virginmedia After the dozens of messages I've posted about this, I would at least think you'd know it was a mobile - when you had your mobile service. I was promised the results of two investigations, but received nothing.
