As for Jo Swinson a straight jacket awaits her and a padded cell. Lord Farage has kidded all the Knuckleheads to back him but that could melt overnight.

    @lestereverton80 @SamsungUK From experience I’ve had problems with the internet not working (maybe it’s because of Virgin Media) I don’t know but it’s really annoying. Hoping to change once the contracts up.

    @virginmedia Apparently a local fault but my signal test says no issue -still not resolved and still no TV -follow up call that was promised within 3 days hasn’t materialised (Day 6 and counting)

  • Atairu_ Atairu 💥 (@Atairu_) reported

    @virginmedia i need help changing my ip on hub 3 please

  • Free__Tech Free Tech (@Free__Tech) reported

    @InTheLocalPub @virginmedia If I'm honest, I don't think there's only Virgin customers who face this issue. I think most people face the battle of being given shite hardware by their ISP.

  • DJSirCoL Colin RylanderWilkes (@DJSirCoL) reported

    @virginmedia Tv is worse than ever, think we may need an engineer or someone to see why the signal is so bad on our line, it’s fine to the box downstairs

  • liam_abrown Liam Brown (@liam_abrown) reported

    @virginmedia Watch them As my WiFi drops in and out every 10 mins. I believe its my router as its had a red light on for months which means it's over heating. I either want a new router or compensation as paying for a service which is no good, rather have no Internet

  • scorey_michelle Michelle Scorey (@scorey_michelle) reported

    @virginmedia They won’t help us further - the response we get is “it’s with the field complaint team and they will be in contact” they haven’t - seriously fed up now

  • Saturdayat3 Julian Wolstencroft (@Saturdayat3) reported

    @virginmedia Do that every time and nothing changes. Amazing how you never want to spend money on sending someone out

  • petecurly50 curly (@petecurly50) reported

    @virginmedia 54 minutes on the phone have extended contract on the strength of a guaranteed installation date necessary due to work requirements . After dealing with 4 depts phone cut off ! Shocking customer service

  • scorey_michelle Michelle Scorey (@scorey_michelle) reported

    @virginmedia What can I do to get this resolved ? We have emailed/ called/ engaged in a web chat - everyone seems to be saying they can’t help us / we will be in touch ! Your engineer (as lovely as he was) has caused a lot of damage to our property and nobody seems to care !!!
