SorachiTim (@PolymathTim) reported from West Bromwich, EnglandZero Internet connectivity from @virginmedia now for pushing 12 hours. Resetting and/or powering down the hub does nothing, the diagnostic and fault tools just go round and around in an ever more boring circle. #LightningSpeedFarce

El LOBO (@MrPigdenLOBO) reported@huckleberrydan @virginmedia Helllllloooooo, this is virgin media, if I could just have your bank account detailssssss, we can sort this right away. Do they have chat support? BT are brilliant for it.
-
Dobbin1957 (@dobbin1957) reported@virginmedia The service status page now says. 17.07 - you also sent a text to my wife who is the account holder at 08.07 today to say everything is fixed. So you clearly haven’t a clue what you are doing and yet you expect your customers to be patient. Time to give Virgin the boot I think.
-
Sonny George (@SonnyGeorgeGB) reported@WeAreOpenreach So now another week goes by where my tenant has no broadband.
