John Murphy (@John_murphy1) reported from Sheffield, England@virginmedia how do I order a new hub please? My current one loses network access and needs rebooting every hour or so. Not ideal when working from home. There are no known service issues so I’m thinking it’s a hub issue.
-
Martin Spiers (@martinaspiers) reported from Oughtibridge, England@virginmedia That would appear only to relate to your services? I'm not a customer (except via 02).

Ian Naylor (@ianpnaylor) reported from Sheffield, EnglandDealing with ongoing @virginmedia connection issues whilst trying to work is bad enough, but then repeated issues whilst trying to watch #sheffieldUnited lose again is just too much. Especially as my bill is pushing £50 a month. Can't work, can't suffer the footie. Come on virgin

Thomas Foster (@Sedontane) reported from Newbold, England@nickkzie @scazz786 @virginmedia I have their business broadband, it's been awful. I then pulled the Internet cable out of the modem and fell back on the 4G backup on my plan. Fixed. I'll plug the cable back in tomorrow and get my speed back.

Mark Bell (@67BLADE) reported from Chesterfield, England@virginmedia I have tried that text service for the last two days. ‘Terri BOT’ is no use. I need to speak to a real person .
