@virginmedia So it looks like the router resetting was the start of a bigger issue. Router appears to be having issues again. Your diag service thinks the router is switched off but it certainly isn’t.

@virginmedia And another issue. Must be that time of the year when I seem to have numerous problems in a short time span. Now it’s saying incorrect password when trying to join the WiFi network (password hasn’t changed), or it’ll say there’s a connection problem to internet and a red button.

@virginmedia It’s for mine and my daughters mobile. Been going on now for 2 days. Can’t make or receive calls. Been into Virgin store today and they gave me a new sim. But couldn’t help with checking to see if there were issues in my area.

@virginmedia I don’t have a landline or a Virgin phone, I don’t want to rack up a huge phonebill calling you to sort out an issue on your side. I’ve now performed a factory reset and still not working. So I’ve ran the broadband test from my Virgin Media page and it says the equipment is off.

@virginmedia that's the problem businesses assume customers are happy to spend their lives phoning them and be happy wasting hours and hours

@virginmedia So service resumed around 3pm with an email confirming it. In the last 5/10 mins the wireless connection keeps disappearing off. It’ll return for a second or two, then drop again. Unsurprisingly your status checker says there isn’t an issue despite there clearly being one.

@virginmedia Ah so now you’ve acknowledged there’s an issue in the area with a fix ETA of nearly 3am. So no broadband all evening. This happened last week too. This isn’t acceptable service levels.

@virginmedia That’s not the point, I don’t want credit. I want a reliable service. And this isn’t reliable. My 4G service on my phone is more reliable than my home broadband. That’s not good.

@virginmedia I really don’t know how you can morally charge for the pitiful service you provide. You have the most consistently unreliable download speeds I have ever come across.

@virginmedia Hi the issue has rectified itself, 3 days later = Network issues/ Mast. I will be raising a complaint about this as i could not make calls whilst a serious incident occurred = unable to contact emergency services.

@virginmedia Could you be so kind and let me know if the engineer is still coming, I tried logging into my virgin media account but it states my account was shut down or deactivated? Was hoping he would be here early as I ran out of data on my phone last night. FIO: @Ofcom
