Mirdizzle (@FrankMirdad) reported@funkyphil @virginmedia Seems to be a recurring theme in all the tweets I've read, there's clearly an issue as I'm constantly dropping packets out of the blue or having MS spikes in excess of 7000, yet no information from Virgin as to any form service issues, been the same for about 4 days now.

-
Colin Forbes (@forbes41) reported@virginmedia It’s a virgin media router, she has cancelled her account now. Trying to scam people into additional costs on their bill when they don’t need it is a shocking way to treat your customers
