    @virginmedia They advised, reset, changing from 2.4 to 5. Then back again. Changing the settings on the account. Done this multiple times. Customer service hung up on me then I rang back again and was told I hung up on them. Awaiting a supervisor call. It’s never worked since installation

  • Slesss_ JoshSlesser (@Slesss_) reported from South Shields, England

    @virginmedia After speaking to yet another member who stated they couldn’t do anything about it, I said I was going to cancel so I was transferred. The guy I spoke to was for once someone I could understand, he was able to sort my issue out in 10 minutes after being on the phone for 1 hour

  • SmythRhona Rhona Smyth 💙💚🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@SmythRhona) reported

    @virginmedia - I phone every week to try and get my modem replaced as red light on ! Each time I get told needs to be passed to an engineer but 3 weeks on still no progress ! How can I escalate this ? Tried all the self help and forum suggestions!

  • highroastcoffee Politics with Coffee (@highroastcoffee) reported

    @simonnread @virginmedia Far too many companies are still using COVID as an excuse. They haven’t invested back into their customer services. Some companies still don’t have a way to phone them. Where are the regulators?

  • BOLSCHIBOOZE gaz (@BOLSCHIBOOZE) reported

    @virginmedia Still happening think it’s my router just keeps telling me all good reset *** if problems still there

  • IanHulbert49 Ian Hulbert (@IanHulbert49) reported

    @virginmedia Of course. I've done all the reboots. Turned the router off and done all the resets. Nothing works. It's all on demand service to. Sky cinema, catch up everything.
