When you work from home you rely on the internet coverage from your supplier. Mine has gone down this morning with expected fix at 3pm. No prior warning from @virginmedia SHITE!!!!!

@virginmedia abysmal service. I’ve spent almost 2 weeks trying to get through to speak to someone about the price increase you’re looking to force on me, despite that I’m meant to benefit from #MatesRates for life. Please pick up the phone!!!

@virginmedia She wants to cancel from 19th July or at least speak to someone to see if she can see what other options are available to her as she has been trying to do. I was only made aware today that she has been having these troubles as she is elderly and finds this confusing.
