Sorry for the stream issues tonight and having to cut it short but @virginmedia is being intermittent at best and drop my connection 3 times so I had to call it a night. Hopefully all will back to normal tomorrow after @That_King_Thing recording 👍🏻

@virginmedia Not surprised, showing no service problems. Hmm must be as good as their resolution team - all promises until they’ve got your money then either broken promises or just silence

@virginmedia There is no issue 😂 I’m just stating how poor HD looks compared to 4K. Roll on 2020 when you get Sky 4K content.

@virginmedia Think the menu options are slightly different on the 360 software but I found network diagnostics and signal quality is “Good” and connection speed is “high”. Does that help?

(@TheScouseMouse1) reported
@virginmedia Nope, why would you. You can't be bothered. So now I have to deal with another phonecall instead of customer service calling me and apologising. This is how it should work not me doing the leg work and wasting my time on a company the couldn't give one

@virginmedia Yes, calling you goes to a 'We're sorry you're having problems' recorded message, ARGHH!!! It's really not good enough. I just need INFORMATION as to what's happening. And no sign of a Virgin Media van in the road fixing things.

@virginmedia I am informing Virgin Media of my 30 days notice on here because your "preferred" cancellation process is not fit for purpose. I have spent hours trying to cancel already and will not spend any more time.
