Evan Davis (@EvanD) reported from Solihull, England@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?
-
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

Carm5012 (@Carm5012) reported@Ofcom Can you do something about @virginmedia and their constant nuisance calls? Four so far today - it never ends
-
DT (@DanTaylor86) reported@virginmedia I've been a customer for 10 years but the customer service I've received today is extremely worrying. Everyone has been polite and tried to help, but still my package is all wrong. This needs rectifying immediately or your major competitor will be gaining new custom
-
entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@virginmedia Thanks for the reply @virginmedia but, frankly, these are just platitudes as usual. What is needed is action to sort the problem and accurate fix dates as opposed to the random, made up,ones I've been given so far Also, why not supply clients with MiFi solutions to help them?
-
Road Painter (@RoadPainter) reportedIt looks like I'm soon to be an ex-customer of @virginmedia My monthly bill has gone up by more than 10% this month, unjustifiable profiteering!
